[QUOTE="TrippyHippy, post: 7731365, member: 27252"] ......aaand...STILL talking......I [I]knew[/I] that was wishful thinking when you first declared you were 'done!' :D Yes you have. You have dismissed all concerns over a directors style - or lack of it - and declared that all our views about what makes a 'good movie' are irrelevant because the only objective measure is commercial success. That has a clear implication. They strive to making a good movie - something you dismiss. There is a bigger commercial picture than simply whether the movie makes money or not. The brand itself needs to be enhanced, and that requires a movie that the wider audience, as a collective, generally considers to be good. It's not an insult, it's a logical extension of what you are arguing. If the movie makers just wanted to make money, then they could just do it through making a porn movie - and ignore any aesthetic whatsoever, so long as it made money. For the sake of the brand, and most gamers aesthetic tastes however, I hope they don't do this. [/QUOTE]
