Welcome To Planet Pixar

· Score: 2, Insightful
Pixar has two oscar nominations for Best Screenplay - thats why their films are supreme - lately script hasn't been important in Disney's home-grown films.
Ditch "The Rock" and cast Chow-Yun Fat as the spy hunter stricken with grief over a singer he accidently blinded while hunting a spy. The spy could be played by Danny Lee.... actually they should just restore "The Killer" and put it in all the theaters - it would probably cost 1/100 of what this visual abomination will.
The Rock jumps from the spy-mobile onto a motorcycle at 100mph to play motorcycle chicken with generic bad guy #1. Before impact The Rock pulls out 2 9mm's (While still maintaining control of the Ducati) and squeezes off two rounds - one to the front tire of the bike (which is about to hit a bus full of handicapped orphans) and while the bad guy is flying in the air the other bullet is a perfectly placed head shot. All this is done in slow motion with CG doves flying everywhere.
Many of the corporations are looking at the short-term benefits from the cheap labor in these places.
The cheaper labor allows for higher profit margins on these items - but what happens when so many jobs are moved from the US? The average American will no longer be able to afford these "little extras" and sales will drop. Higher profit margins will not be able to make up for the drastic volume loss.
Who is going to make up for it - the low paid Indian/Chinese/Mexican/Etc - hardly - most of these people can't afford the products there making.
Short term greed will equal very bleak future with the distribution of wealth becoming more "out of whack". How long until we are at the Noble/Serf relationship again?
I just hope things don't turn violent in other places because of percieved inequalities of US Corporations. I guess the US military will be in need in these areas - so there are your new jobs.
I can only hope they bring back Brad Bird - The Iron Giant was one of the best of the 90's - and I feel pretty safe in stating that The Incredibles will be "incredible" (How many critics are going to use that pun - I think I should patent it now). Brad Bird is obviously a huge creative talent and it seems to me his work on the Incredibles should be finished pretty soon allowing him to step into this Simpsons movie. Of course Pixar might not want to let him go - I wouldn't either.
