From The Guardian
Director Ridley Scott turned grumpy old man yesterday, declaring 97% of modern films “stupid”…..
Yup. With you so far…..
…..and claiming mobile phone and other modern technology was killing cinema.
Um?
The only quote from Ridley Scott regarding this in the article is…..
“I’m sure we’re on a losing wicket but we’re fighting technology. Whilst it is wonderful in many aspects, it also has some big negative downsides.”
Yeah OK. The internet is a double edged sword for the film industry, but mobile phones?
I’d really like to read the rest of the interview…..

Yeah.
I hear 20 send clips filmed with a Canon Powershot are fetching big money on the black market…..
That is just stupid!
