Comments on: The Wild Hesitation Of Movie Distributors(Or, The Reason Why Indie Movies Aren’t An Obvious Target) http://grintasticonline.org/wordpress/2010/02/28/karos-article-that-still-needs-a-smashing-title/ Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:37:14 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: tleo03 http://grintasticonline.org/wordpress/2010/02/28/karos-article-that-still-needs-a-smashing-title/comment-page-1/#comment-552 tleo03 Sun, 28 Feb 2010 21:53:53 +0000 http://grintasticonline.org/wordpress/?p=1747#comment-552 I agree with Amu. With the kind of shit that Hollywood chures out, one would hope that film companies want to show something different instead of the old stuff over and over again. It is just so sad to think that movie watchers do not want to be challenged with a movie that is real and evokes emotions but rather settle for a movie with mindless toilet humour and rude jokes. However, I am happy that Indievision is willing to break the mould and take on Cherrybomb. I think they recognise that maybe it is time to move away from the films we have been getting lately and show a movie that deals with real issues that some people are not willing to face. If it takes a long campaign in order for us to see a higher quality of film and acting then I am willing to do that. Plus, fan power works. Cherrybomb is the perfect example. I agree with Amu.

Same storylines with a few tweeks here and there seems to be the norm in the movie industry. They are scared of something different and something that lets the audience to actually think about the plotline, relate to the characters and ultimately leaves a long-lasting impression. Real issues like drugs, underage sex, alcohol, violence are the issues that need to be dealt with and movies are the best medium to reach a wider audience. Hopefully the new age movies like Cherrybomb and new age actors like Rupert Grint get a fairer chance because they choose to portray such Current Issues affecting the society.
