LOVE Chris Gore!
Original creators with original stories. It worked so well in the 80s.
Professor Chris Gore 😮
It's mind blowing how this fundamentally commonsense approach to storytelling is considered controversial nowadays. We’er in a clown world.
I was lucky enough to see 2001 in the cinema, in a re-release at the beginning of the 80’s. Unforgettable. Thank you for your lessons, maestro.
Tuve la suerte de ver 2001 en el cine, en un reestreno a inicio de los 80’s. Inolvidable. Gracias por sus lecciones, maestro
Saludos desde Costa Rica 🇨🇷
Great interview! Time flew by. Thanks for insightful questions and answers. Cheers!
Super interesting interview, so many gold nuggets of observation....kudos to the interviewer also
Will never regret discovering Chris via Film Courage!
@59:00 This was a great question! Growing up, there was always a big difference between the actors we saw on TV vs. the ones we saw on the big screen. I remember that if an actor went from staring in movies to staring in TV shows, that this was a bad thing for them. Likewise, TV stars who actually made it to the movies were seen as being a success. Perhaps with all the proliferation of media and all the different ways we have of accessing it due to modern technology this has helped remove that stigma. We've also seen some very popular TV shows that have grown beyond the popularity of some movies and I think Game of Thrones and Squid Game are great examples that were popular all over the world.
What they did with Sarah Connor was ridiculous. She was an amazing original character. Looking after her son, and attempting to preserve herself along the way. Original BA.
Thank god for this man
What a great interview!
NIce one Frank. Hail
21:24 Han Solo's death was originally mishandled in Return of the Jedi. The character was supposed to complete the hero's arc and die, but the studio intervened for marketing reasons.
The level best that Disney and Abrams could have done would have been to rewrite canon and go back to the original idea of Solo dying at the end of RotJ, but a truly groundbreaking decision like that was obviously never in the cards with Disney or Abrams.
Want a million views put up a Chris Gore video.
The best thing that could happen to entertainment is if all the Hollywood awards and award shows end. If western entertainment was solely based on audiences feedback and not what Hollywood wants to social engineer, our entertainment would be in a much better state right now. But unfortunately companies are too worried about social justice, virtue signaling, pushing politics and identity politics, superficial feminism, trying to write women more strong and man more weak, race swapping historical figures, political correctness, adding diversity where it makes no sense at all, gender swapping male historic figures, attacking fans and calling them racist and sexist for rejecting their garbage, hiring bad writers based on diversity quotas that leads to meritocracy issues, and the list goes on. There is a woke blight that’s eating away Hollywood and it needs to be eradicated. The problem is nobody can talk about it or mention it without being blacklisted. These are the real problems we have today that we didn’t have back then.
I miss when movies were about stories. There was always of course some little message or moral. A lot of movies have pushed the notion that we should be more conscientious about nature, for example, but that was subtle subtext. The messaging in movies now is more like pornography where the plot is really only there as a stage to do the business. It’s like “I have a political view. What story can I tell to push it?”
Chris is the best.
It's the worst age to live in as movie lover. Nowaydays they only make movies for money, rarely because of the love of the craft. No wonder I so often come back to old movies.
The S&m subject would be it's own show. When can i be here for it? I will turn notifications on. And i despise notifications.
Chris Gore ❤❤❤❤
My wife sent me a link to the new Roadhouse movie trailer. It looks like a good movie, but Hollywood is so clueless. It’s like they saw the new Top Gun did amazing and Hollywood’s takeaway was: “oh, people really love remakes of 80s movies. Time to make a new Roadhouse and new Highlander…” Yes, those are better than the garbage you’ve been making, but the reason the 80s movie is better isn’t because of nostalgia, it’s because those STORIES were BETTER. I own probably about 500 movies. Maybe 40 of them were made in the last 20 years. It’s pathetic that they have to essentially duplicate old movies to make something good.
You want to copy what made a movie successful? Copy the framework, structure, or style, not the actual content in the movie.
I still haven't seen 2001 Space Odyssey
I get the impression he puts on a movie and (watches) listens to it, much like most of us listen to music. He is a true film lover.
1:25:42 "It's made to look easy" -- I so agree with Chris on this. It's like Hollywood is coddling an audience of narcissistic children who can't handle the thought of losing, and can't even handle the thought of anything being a challenge.
Instead, they grotesquely destroy classic scenes like J.J. Abrams did in his Star Trek reboot with the Kobayashi Maru scene. Kirk not only has to "win", he has to eat an apple while doing it. It really makes me want to play fly on the wall for the first job experiences of the kids who that trash rehash is made for. How will these children react the first time they get a negative feedback? I can only imagine they'll react like Tobias Fünke when his stepmom berates him.
The concentration of wealth in fewer and fewer hands over the past forty years has had a significant impact on the lack of creativity we are seeing in anything that is artistic or aesthetic or requires charm.
Greedy people aren't interested in aesthetics. They are interested in money.
As wealth is more and more concentrated in the hands of the greedy, aesthetics naturally suffer. Movies and the entertainment industry are suffering greatly because artistic people have no money while the folks with the money are essentially dead inside.
We really pay a great price for the pox of wealth concentration that we have experienced over the past four decades. Look at the monstrosities like Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Las Vegas - where rich, soul-less people are obsessed with building these huge charmless grossly expensive monuments to nothing.
Entertaining but I didn't find common ground on most of his favorites...that's life.
They already did a time travel movie with a woman, "Peggy sue got married". Kathleen Turner was the lead.
The writer of BTTF held onto the rights and said he'll never remake it. The weird thing is I keep hearing about a reboot every now and then.
It's two writers, Zemeckis and Gale. Gale has said there'll never be another BTTF movie. He says they have an understanding with Amblin and Spielberg that no BTTF movie will be made without them. He even compared bad remakes with The Phantom Menace where people say their life would have been better never having seen it and doesn't want to go down that road. He also says no one could replace MJF and using someone else would not measure up.
He does say Universal REALLY, REALLY wants to make a reboot. I'm a little confused as to why they won't make one now. Universal threatened to make a sequel without them and that's how we got BTTF 2 and 3. Not sure why that's no longer a threat for BTTF 4.
edit: I've since read that both writers have an "ironclad agreement" with Amblin and Spielberg. So looks like they have something in writing. Studios could make BTTF 4 after both of them are dead. Zemeckis seems to be resigned to the idea that it will happen eventually after he's gone.
@@alienrenders There's actually nothing stopping Universal from remaking or rebooting "Back to the Future" since they actually own the rights to the franchise. What Bob and Bob have are the rights are the ownership of the characters protected by the WGA, which means that Universal can make a new movie called "Back to the Future" but they cannot include the use of characters named Doc Brown, Marty McFly or any of the other characters seen throughout the trilogy. Universal also isn't stupid enough to actually go ahead and remake or reboot the franchise without the Bob's or Spielberg's blessing, as for one it would look incredibly bad on their part, and the second which is probably the most important, Spielberg has a very close relationship and partnership with Universal, as does his company Amblin Entertainment. It would become a very dirty legal fight as well would tarnish the relationship between the two companies if Universal pushed through a new film when it's openly known that it's not wanted.
Interesting what you said about Han Solo. Do you not think that happened because of Harrison Fords disgust for the character. I mean he wanted the character to die in Jedi. He wanted to offend the fans. Probably due to resentment of the character kick-starting his career but not being dramatically impactful or serious enough for him.
It was like "thank you for the opportunity, but f*"k you!" too.
I mean c'mon we've all seen him in interviews. We know what he thought of Starwars. Lucas reigned him in and so did Ridley. Bad Robot couldn't.
I am aware of Ford's hate for the series and his character. I do wonder if he had a say in the death of his character or if it was all on the writers. Also need to consider that Kathleen Kennedy was in charge of things with her whole "The Force is Female" angle. We've seen the continued rise of feminism in the Star Wars brand including demeaning and destroying the male characters. Ford's character turns out to be a bum dad, who is estranged from his wife/family/friends and has become a kind of sad pathetic old man. Wait... are we talking about Indiana Jones or Star Wars? :/
I don't listen to him...he had some good roles...he had some very bad ones too. But "stars" today bore me with their self importance.
rewatching this video and hearing Chris message to the studio regarding BTTF being remade, Southpark comes to mind: PUT A CHICK IN IT AND MAKE HER GAY...and make it lame too...
Boyhood was a gimmick. And not a "Masterpiece".
I really disagree with one of his takes. You don't always have to be original. Different? yes. Original? not necessarily. Case in point, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. That movie is a close sibling to Raiders of the Lost Ark. Sure it has his dad, but the feel and the adventure was very similar to Raiders, and yet the movie still worked because the writing was so good. Temple of Doom is great and more original than the other two, but it's still not quite as good. So you don't always have to be original, but your writing has to be spectacular
Hail Frank Gore!
Also wanted to say a rebooted female BTTF could work. His analysis is from a particular perspective. "Mandy" would have the tension with her mom. And as long as the movie wasn't *about that* (aka The Message) guys would want to see it. At least, if both actresses were attractive.

Why on earth did you guys include "Back to the Future Part II" as part of the thumbnail next to the Fast and Furious sequels and Wonder Woman 1984, on a video titled "This Interview Is Better Than Most Hollywood Sequels". Do you guys really believe "Back to the Future Part II" is a terrible sequel? Seriously, it's one of the greatest film franchises/trilogies to ever come out of Hollywood, and you're associating it with the rest of modern sequel garbage? For shame Film Courage, for shame.
'Promosm'
I don't care what anyone says. Prometheus is one of the best sci fi movies of all time.... this is got a troll
The falling into a deep chasm death also was how they killed Sirius black in Harry Potter in a way. In the film he just falls back into this foggy void and we’re like “wtf?!”. I never liked how they killed him like that.
And on the swappings (gender, race, etc), I’ve never liked that because it’s trying to fix something that was never broken and it’s implying that the opposites of whatever is being swapped (if it’s mostly a male cast switching to all females, mostly white switching to all black, etc), it’s implying that those people could never have watched, enjoyed or related to those characters/story UNLESS they saw someone “who looks like them.” That’s INCREDIBLY sexist/racist/discriminatory because it’s saying flat out “you’re too stupid to enjoy, relate or understand what’s being shown to you. So we have to ‘dumb it down’ so you’ll get it.” That’s WAY worse than any “white washing” or whatever has ever been done I would think. Could you imagine going up to a black woman and saying “sorry, but you’re too stupid to watch Steel Magnolias as is, so we have to put Queen Latifah in it so you’ll understand what’s happening.” 😱 You’d get your face bashed in (or worse) because that’s terrible and racist as all get out.
Yea, sure, we need movies to represent SOME things, but when a movie is ONLY made for that, there is ZERO question or doubt - that movie is trash with a capital garbage. They focus on the propaganda and little to no focus at all on the story - which is the ENTIRE point of the film. But they do this to ride the waves of civil unrest. It’s like war profiteering. They make the most money (they think) on movies that are geared for the targeted groups.
It’s truly sad that movies and so many other great entertaining mediums are being suffocated with money hungry, non creative mentalities. With everything “getting a comeback” - from clothes to film to games - we’re back in the 90/80/70/60s but the passion and creativity from those eras isn’t alive anymore. We’re just sticks in the mud, sinking from stagnation. Such a shame 😞
