Damon Lindelof is so tired of your summertime disaster pornography flicks , unless they have a ripped albino in them .
Seems like everyone in Hollywood has an opinion about the oversupply of jumbo superhero movies or robot pic that destroy whole cities . In a long and very heartfelt consultation withVulture , Linelof delves into the extremely profitable mankind of blowing whoreson up on screen . And why it ’s not really forge for him any longer :
We live in a commercial world , where you ’ve got ta come up with ‘ preview minute ’ and make the thing feel vainglorious and telling and satisfying , specially in that summertime - moving picture - theater construct . But in the end I do feel — even as a purveyor of it — slightly turned off by this devastation porn that has emerged and become very bold - face up this past summertime . And again , guilty as charge . It ’s hard not to do it , especially because a movie , if properly do , experience like it ’s escalating .
And work on to break down where the real trouble is and how that all will only continue to feed the world of MacGuffins and explosion .
Once you spend more than $ 100 million on a movie , you have to save the globe . And when you start there , and basically say , I have to construct a MacGuffin based on if they shut off this , or they close up this portal , or they inactivate this bomb , or they come up with this therapeutic , it will carry through the world — you are very circumscribed in terms of how you execute that . And in many way , you could become a striver to it and , again , I make no excuses , I ’m just say you kind of have to start there . In the old day , it was just as satisfying that all Superman has to do was fundamentally save Lois from this temblor in California . The stakes in that picture are that the San Andreas Fault course open up and half of California is going to descend in the ocean . That feel big enough , but there is a sense of large , good , quicker , see it before , done that .
It ’s nice to see a little self observation . So fingerbreadth crossed , he’skilling it over on the Seth of The Leftovers — which is anything but a summer spectacle production . Read the full clause onVulture .
