"I am not so sure that it is Hollywood demand, but I am quite confident that it is OUR demand.
The public, the industry comply.
Happily for us life is depressing enough without bas ends..You will conceit to me.."
The money men of Hollywood demand as big a payback as possible so in that respect what Hollywood demands and what the public demands are one in the same - the money they throw at a movie, the more payback they require.
With Titanic, Cameron bucked to happy ending somewhat when Jack sank to his watery grave, though we all knew that the ending of a story about the Titanic was never going to be 'feel good' so the audience were prepared for tragedy. :0)
I'm not expecting anything more than a good big-budget, block-busting pop-corn movie with Avatar and if the 3D works like I expect it should be a thoroughly predictable but entertaining blast.
Today is a gift - that's why it's called the Present.
