Lorenzo di Bonaventura seriously?


Anyone else think it's kind of ironic that a producer of Transformers would go on about how his children will be worse of because of a loss in quality in cinema, because the digital technology is so easily accessible.

I don't know but I didn't feel that Transformers was anywhere near a deep, insightful, thought provoking movie... It was visually stunning, spectacular, but a mindless action scifi popcorn flick shouldn't define quality. I know it's a subjective thing but...

For this guy it seemed it was about protecting turf.

As a producer, of course it's about cutting into his turf! He's at risk of losing money if these meddling kids get their own cameras and start making better movies at only the fraction of the budget of a Transformers or a G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra.

The man came across as a massively, insincere hypocrite!

"You average, typical, blocking the view of a God-damn, average, victim Bastard!"
