Dass mit Gods of Egypt kein filmischer Meilenstein im Programm steht, dürfte sich rumgesprochen haben. Fachpresse und Publikum sind wenig angetan.
Regisseur Alex Proyas (The Crow, Dark City) scheint so seine Probleme damit zu haben, wie sein Film rezensiert wird.
Einfach peinlich, unprofessionell.
NOTHING CONFIRMS RAMPANT STUPIDITY FASTER…
Than reading reviews of my own movies. I usually try to avoid the experience – but this one takes the cake. Often, to my great amusement, a critic will mention my past films in glowing terms, when at the time those same films were savaged, as if to highlight the critic’s flawed belief of my descent into mediocrity. You see, my dear fellow FBookers, I have never gotten great reviews… on any movie I’ve made really, apart from those by reviewers who think for themselves and make up their own opinions. Sadly those type of reviewers are nearly all dead. I guess I have the knack of rubbing reviewers the wrong way – always have. This time of course they have bigger axes to grind – they can rip into my movie while trying to make their mainly pale asses look so politically correct by screaming “white-wash!!!” like the deranged idiots they all are. They fail to understand, or chose to pretend to not understand what this movie is, so as to serve some bizarre consensus of opinion which has nothing to do with the movie at all. That’s ok, this modern age of texting will probably make them go the way of the dinosaur or the newspaper shortly – don’t movie-goers text their friends with what they thought of a movie? Seems most critics spend their time trying to work out what most people will want to hear. How do you do that? Why these days it is so easy… just surf the net to read other reviews or what bloggers are saying – no matter how misguided an opinion of a movie might be before it actually comes out. Lock a critic in a room with a movie no one has even seen and they will not know what to make of it. Because contrary to what a critic should probably be they have no personal taste or opinion, because they are basing their views on the status quo. None of them are brave enough to say “well I like it” if it goes against consensus. Therefore they are less than worthless. Now that anyone can post their opinion about anything from a movie to a pair of shoes to a hamburger, what value do they have – nothing. Roger Ebert wasn’t bad. He was a true film lover at least, a failed film-maker, which gave him a great deal of insight. His passion for film was contagious and he shared this with his fans. He loved films and his contribution to cinema as a result was positive. Now we have a pack of diseased vultures pecking at the bones of a dying carcass. Trying to peck to the rhythm of the consensus. I applaud any film-goer who values their own opinion enough to not base it on what the pack-mentality say is good or bad.
Posted by Alex Proyas on Sonntag, 28. Februar 2016Wer meint, dass wäre alles gewesen, täuscht sich gewaltig:
Proyas ist da aber nicht alleine.
Zuletzt hatte der bekannte Fotograf Jake Olson auf Facebook die Egoschiene gefahren.
Da waren die Äußerungen gegenüber anderen Fotografen arschlochmäßig.
Dem ist der Ruhm zu Kopf gestiegen.Solche Leute sollten besser die Finger von FB und Co lassen, wobei man dadurch aber weiß, wie diese Personen ticken.
