Discussion on Movie Success and Distribution

I got about like

12 movies that I really love and I'm proud of,

and about 25 that are like, I like this, I didn't like that.

And about 10 or 12, whatever, that are like,

that's fucking terrible. I hate this.

I can't watch it. And it was awful.

And when I did independent movies, sometimes they just didn't get distribution.

Like no one wanted to put it out, or I went to a film festival.

I haven't had movies that were so,

like just something so terrible happened when the studio

already was making it that it wasn't put out.

But you have like, they changed their plan.

You can kind of see, oh, now we're going to shift to this or that.

Now you can put something on streaming and you don't,

it used to be like, you were going to go out theatrical.

So you kind of were like naked.

You just had your, you know what I mean? And if it didn't work,

everybody knew because they're saying, look, this movie made 10 cents this weekend.

And you'd want them to take the fucking billboard down.

You drive past the billboard,

like, it was like, it was a bomb. The movie's a bomb. You know what I mean?

You're up there at night in your Batman costume, just painting.
