    Yes. I love provoking a controversial discussion!

    Wow, this was really well done! Congrats, man! However, from a story standpoint it's a bit Asimovish, which isn't to say that its a bad thing. Rather, its exploring ideas that are a bit old. I'd look into some of the more modern-day sci-fi stories because they really emphasize the...

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Aw man...I honestly want to tell you but, I'd rather show you later on. That is, if my plan works. I'll just say this, though. As of right now, every institution from politics to film is showing a growing trend in networked de-centralization.

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    One of the best examples that comes to mind is "Fight Club". That said sooo much but all the while, maintained an absurd level of entertainment. That's the kind of balance I'm personally looking for in the films that I plan to create. I definitely want to say something but, I don't want to...

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Definitely agree with you there. I mean, when you really think about it, its just a stepping-stone towards fully immersive technology that will one day allow us to be Gods in our own virtual Worlds. If and/or when that happens we'll be having the same debates about those. "We should be...

    More money, more problems, right?

    Thanks! I'm a little obsessed with these things, haha. I can't wait to see what we do with film in the future!

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Yeeeah, pretty much. It's sad but who knows. Maybe we'll be inspired to do more with film and transcend beyond what we thought we were capable of? Story-wise, that is.

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Holy fuck, Christopher Mcquarries did the Usual Suspects?! That's my favorite movie!! No wonder Edge of tomorrow was so cool.

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    I'm inclined to disagree to some extant. I definitely think there are movies out there that are merely created for the sake of entertainment but I honestly feel that most movies are at least in part, trying to say something even if its not that deep. It's all one giant reflection just like our...

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Yeah, that's a valid point. But, I wasn't necessarily talking about getting rid of escapism in movies or emphasizing war and race in the literal sense. Rather, I just think we need to update our common themes to fit something that's a little more modern. But hey, to each is own, right...

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Thanks for the inspiration, man! And yeah, I agree with you about Hollywood. It's not my cup of tea but, it certainly is for a good number of people. It's just the way it is, I suppose.

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Exactly! Hollywood is reflection of what we want and we just want...Nothing. But, shouldn't we be inspired to go further with stories? Shouldn't we strive to be more inventive and mind-boggling? It's like we all want the T.V dinners instead of the gourmet meal because we've never tasted...

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    I agree but, I still feel that Indi films are limiting. They don't appeal to a mass audience. There's gotta be a way to create a self-sustaining online engine that generates well-made productions at the same rate that Netflix and Xfinity do and be able to convey them both online and at the...

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Hollywood doesn't have to do anything because one day, they'll be irrelevant. But, that's a different matter altogether. Also, this has nothing to do with me. It has everything to do with the "Global Brain". When has that ever been given a voice? It hasn't. This whole time, it's been a...

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Well, a lot of issues are being clouded through simplistic cookie-cutter stories. Modern-day racism, the dynamic make-up of modern-day wars, the relationship between humans and machines, implications related to big data analytics and the Internet of Things, automation, and of course a holistic...

    Nice stuff man. Definitely looking forward to seeing where this goes.

    What's wrong with Hollywood?

    Hollywood seems to depict everything in a way that isn’t reflective of our time…But man those numbers in the box office keep rising. And that’s what’s concerning to me because it shows how complacent and ignorant we really are. One of the biggest voices out there for our generation is...
