There’s a celebrity F list????

I think the Ring and the Departed were exceptions. The Departed worked because it was very cultural specific. Didn’t care for the gift wrapped ending though.

Hollywood isn’t as stupid or as shallow as everyone may think it is – or at least executives. Yes, ignorance runs rampant, but it’s because the majority are blinded by the easiest way to make money and not really care too much about a quality product. That’s what the Indie circuit is for. I remember having a conversation with a filmmaker from LA long ago and he said the biggest issue to affect change wasn’t the executives, it was the audience. His belief was it was the education system compounded by stereotypes that ultimately hindered people’s perceptions – and he was white.

And as for concepts Hollywood bastardizes from K-Dramas or Asian films – the thing with Asians, is that we do cute really really well. And well, cute doesn’t really sell in the US – Sexy does.

My ultimate horror is that there is a rumour they’re taking the concept of one of my favorite Korean reality/ variety shows, “We Got Married” and bringing it to the US. The basic concept is that they throw celebrities into a fake marriage and they carry out missions together as a couple. It’s a wholesome charming show with a cute concept … but would totally get sensationalized in the US.
