George Lucas thinks blockbusters are a dying art form:
“The market forces that exist today make it unrealistic to spend $200 million on a movie,” said Lucas, a near-billionaire from his feverishly franchised outer-space epics. “Those movies can’t make their money back anymore. Look at what happened with ‘King Kong.'”
I’m doubtful; People do love blockbusters. On DVD. (via TFN)
