Marlon Brando only mailed in his roles after The Godfather. Everything after that was just to get his name on the posterboard, and a check in his bank. I cannot think of any good role he did after that. Apocalypse Now is supposed to be great, but he showed up very overweight for an SF Colonel, and not knowing his lines. That's why his segments are always in very close focus in dark lighting, and he says one line at a time, which often were not in the script.

Also, he made a similar complaint for another movie... I don't have a clip of it, and I can't reproduce it here in writing, but in the first X-men movie, people made fun of a line he wrote, "Do you know what happens to a toad when it's hit by lightning? [Toad gets hit by lightning] The same as everyone else." And it was a bad line reading, but in the interview I heard, he gave an example of how he imagined it, and the words were the same, but it worked a lot better. It is one problem with writing, especially for movies, in Hollywood... a writer can have an idea for a good line, but then the producer and director and actor all get in there and it's almost a game of telephone where the final performance loses what the writer intended.

There is a surplus of blame and deficit of accountability in the world of movie making, these days. Word and opinion have a broader reaches than ever before. You no longer depend on just two guys eating popcorn in a mock theater for your movie news. You know, I was once told that, in larger populated cities, there is enough first time patronage to keep even a shitty restaurant in business. Movies once counted on this. They no longer can.

Joss has a niche writing style. Mixing comedy, with drama, and action. He does it very well. In the Alien universe that style doesn't fit. I liked Alien 3 better. Alien 3 was an attempt at recreating the claustrophobic, and known hidden danger, and suspense of the original. 4 made sense, but didn't at the same time. Just like I love, and hate it. There were some good one liners, but an action comedy, with Xenomorphs was better with Mel Brooks. And that was only one scene.

How is that Smith's fault? A ID sequel was a bad idea to begin with. The whole appeal of the first film was watching all the real-world buildings and monuments get destroyed. Once the world had been rebuilt following the first alien attack, it was harder for the audience to relate to the 'what if?' scenario. Smith wasn't obliged to return.

_Alien Resurrection_ was a disaster because of its director. Josh Whedon had little to do with it. A French director who, _did not speak English!_ How in the world can someone direct a film without being able to speak the language?! How exactly did they expect to 'work around' that?!
@carriesmigla-didier89005 күн бұрын
So Whedon blamed everyone else for his Alien movie. I'm not surprised given how he blamed everyone for his X-men movie. I remember an interview he gave saying something like 'yes, i wrote the lines, but she said it seriously '- about one of Halle Berry's lines. It was that stupid "So you know what happens to a road when it's hit by lightning? The same thing as everything else." It's just a bad line- one of many. Egos of these folks are so fragile.

I agree, I saw both those movies in the cinema and enjoyed them but both had some bad lines, that Toad line was abysmal, the only part of the film I hated, I spent years asking why it wasn't changed at any point before release to "It gets fried!" or something. Half the people in this comment section could have read that script and made Whedon's lines punchier and funnier than he did.
