Mainstream films are shit because they use stock performers and ignore the independents.

An indie film becomes shit if it uses a mainstream artist.

If a mainstream film uses an indie/experimental artist, its supposed quality doesn't improve - that artist merely becomes a sell-out.

"That guy only digs Godspeed because he heard it in a Danny Boyle film."

"Mainstream culture sucks because nobody exposes these ignorant masses to the obscure."

Anyone going to make up their manipulated, ignorant minds?


dude, so what you are suggesting is soon as someone makes any small amount of success in the film industry they must either voluntarily go into exile in the Congo or we should stop putting them in movies. I agree that alot of mainstream actors/ actresses don't have any talent and i love independent movies. But logically someone is going to be on top. And also logically here, quality of a film has nothing to do with whether it's "indie" or mainstream. generalizing creates radicalism man.
