You have to hand it to The Critical Drinker — this is about as succinct a description of the terrible impossible hell of Hollywood movie “product” today (outside of the realm of true-class, potential-clear-light movies celebrated at film festivals) that anyone’s recently put into words [starting at 2:41]:
“We’re kind of drowning in a sea of entertainment these days, There are so many TV shows, movies, miniseries and fuck knows what else, that people don’t know what the hell they’re supposed to be watching now. And any original property that does comes out, is up against so many competitors that the chances of success are about the same as a homeless man getting into a high-end strip club.”
