Description[edit]
Sequels, remakes, romantic comedy sequels, superheroes, CGI nonsense and one-dimensional androgynous vampires.
That's the Vinewood business model these days.
Low-risk, high-concept blockbusters supported by massive merchandising and completely stripped of all nuance and subtext so that Eastern Europeans and Asians don’t get confused. Unable to tell a succinct story in 90 minutes, directors make 3 hour films that drag on like someone shot the editor. The world has gone digital, which means no more tough decisions about brevity. The film industry is dead and. to add insult to injury, we have to watch as gutless studio execs strip the last pieces of meat from its decaying corpse.
But it wasn't always this way...
Remember a time when America still knew how to build things and win wars? A time before political correctness, when you could depict minorities any way you wanted? A time before CGI and special effects when, if you needed a monster, you made one yourself out of seaweed and egg boxes and fear? A time when you could smoke in the cinema and the commercials before movies were for folding bicycles and local restaurants? A time when leading women fainted at a man’s slightest touch and leading men were leathery, strong-jawed lotharios who died in their forties from liver failure?
We do. Join us on a trip down memory lane. Everything looks good through the lens of nostalgia, even the 1980s.
We have many partners in the film industry, including the Richards Majestic Studios
