Thanks Dave. I didn’t know about a Ridley Scott’s original. Was Crowe also attached?

Hi Bryan, first off thank you for the kind words about this article. Sorry to hear some of the content has not been to your liking. We try to strike a balance but it's extremely valuable to hear positive feedback because it helps us know what our readers want to see more of.

Hi Kiku, Appreciate the comment and agree with the point. I 100% do not condone or suggest that anyone ever break the law for a shoot.

Hey everyone thanks for the comments here. This post was an attempt to offer some counterpoint editorially to the wide held beliefs on the movie. There is room, we think, for subjectivity in discussing some of the great and lasting films. We have heard you all loud and clear though and we really value this sort of input, even when highly critical. We try to slate and publish a wide array of content and push the boundaries of our discussion about film and filmmaking here past the well-worn paths. Please continue to chime in and tell us what we're doing right and wrong in your eyes. Thanks as always.

We don’t report on gossip. We value the feedback and we continue to provide content geared towards indie filmmakers with tools, resources and a dive into the creative process. If we ignored explaining and discussing the business aspects of the industry we’d be doing our readers a disservice. No filmmaker can exist without that. We strive to cover what’s happening in the world of filmmaking by offering insight and asking questions that can help inform our community. We are always open to feedback, and it’s helpful to know what specifically our readers want more of rather than just what they want less of.

Interesting point! I think the nuance I’d point out is that we (the audience) don’t know how these new characters factor in. We also, as it turns out, didn’t know how it would end even if we thought we did.
