The third one, that’s easily the worst

I can at least respect Stephanie because she had a vision, even though it was garbage in the end, I don’t hate her, but I hate what she created.

As for the second one, at the very least they knew what they were doing and they went through a lot of hard work to get it done and it ended up being at the very least decent in the end. Even if there wasn’t much passion behind it.

One thing a lot of these videos forget is that passion doesn’t equal talent, let’s look at valerian, tons of passion, high budget that was given to every actor and creator, written by a man who was a huge fan of the comic and wanted it to be as faithful as possible, insane visual effects and heavy emphasis on imagery and story over high action, so you would expect this to be a masterpiece right?

Well like with twilight, not only was it not a masterpiece, it was one of the biggest critical and commercial flops of 2017.

Let’s look at indie films and video games, how many of them actually turn out like undertale or ghost story? I’ll tell you 1 out of every 100, not that the other 99 are bad, but let’s face the only indie I heard of from 2015 was undertale and it was a great game but that was it, yet people say indie developers are the future even though that clearly isn’t the case unlike what these guys would have you believe:

Look at passion projects like haven call of the king and mighty number 9, they ended up being garbage despite all the passion and ambition behind it.

I mean there are many phenomenal indie games and movies, but the same goes for the mainstream stuff.
