1. That's not our conversation so far. Our conversation so far has essentially been:
"It's a golden age of cinema, how do I become part of Hollywood?"
"Becoming part of Hollywood is damn difficult (not virtually impossible!), here are some of the facts which need addressing ..."
"Damn you and damn the facts, I'm going to ignore both and make films the way I enjoy"
"Then you're turning a dream which is "damn difficult" to realise into a "virtually impossible" to realise dream"
"I don't care, that's the fun of it. Now be specific, how do I become part of Hollywood?"
"Huh, are you nuts?"
2. You are not "chasing the dream", you are playing at/pretending to chase the dream, you are dreaming of chasing the dream!! You are deliberately avoiding those things necessary to actually chase the dream, you're either deluding yourself and/or trying to delude everyone reading your posts. The dream you're actually chasing is to become a skilled/talented hobbyist filmmaker. You then apparently have the really impossible additional dream of a revolution in which Hollywood ends up prizing hobbyist films above professional/commercial films.
I don't hate you at all. I'm just annoyed that you are (apparently deliberately) trying to perpetuate a belief in the myth, a belief which destroys "the dream" for so many. You're free to do and believe whatever you want, if you want to be a hobbyist filmmaker that's entirely up to you and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. I just object to you using semantics to make out you're "chasing the dream", it's demeaning to those who really are chasing the dream and highly misleading to those who aspire to!
