Re: Good Choice

In Response To: Good Choice (Cody Miller)

: Danny Boyle is right. Feature films are becoming the roller coaster ride, the
: fun entertainment, and are shying away from the types of stories that
: explore adult themes.

: However, while he sees that as a tragedy, I don't. We're living in the Golden
: Age of television. Television or things like television (House of Cards)
: are now becoming the way to create interesting stories. I predict in 10-15
: years time most serious filmmakers will WANT to work in television over
: feature films.

I've seen very few films in the past couple of years that I would consider as such. Television provides producers a much more fluid medium to work in and one for actors to show a broader range of skill. For a trilogy's worth of scale television gives viewers 15-20 episodes. That's much more desirable to me. Couldn't agree more about this being a golden age. Rarely do I talk about film with others but I can't fathom the number of conversations that begin with "Hey did you see X last night?"

Good words, Cody!
