      Having worked at a movie theater, that's a big nope
      They're not gonna hire an actor just to perform for this weirdo movie. That would jack up the price so high that nobody wants to buy it.
      It's gonna be the normal employees, with both very mixed performances and very stressed employees. I didn't have a single free minute, every second I would have had to spend on that stupid performance is a second the cinema next door is not cleaned. And that's cumulative. Once, we had to let in people while the movie already started because of that, I couldn't finish cleaning even _with_ help.
      And besides, the whole point of cinema is that the acting is already done. The whole art form and the associated businesses are built on that fact. Who does Coppola think he is to completely ignore that? Does he actually think anyone wants to buy an unfinished movie for home theater? Because that stupid gimmick doesn't work there.

      @@vivianloney CGI doesn't look worse, you've been seeing it since the 90s. The problem is how it's being used. Also the industry's reliance on one specific type of camera which makes it absolutely needed that all scenes are filmed in special effects studios. Films that broke this bullcrap managed to overcome the issue. There is also the Godzilla Minus One approach which has CGI integrated from the foundational level so it doesn't look out of place.
