The Across the Pondcast returns once again for another episode! On today’s episode, Anghus Houvouras and Rohan Morbey sit down to talk about the latest trend in Hollywood – young indie filmmakers who move up to the studio system without much time to grow. Is it a good thing, is it a bad thing? Are there good examples?
Plus, the pair give some thoughts on Neill Blomkamp directing Alien 5. Will it be a success?

Selling out? It’s a profession you moron, you can’t sell out for something that you’re already paid to do!

I think that this is a good thing. Hitting a home run on these big franchises allows a lot of these directors the chance to make films that may not have been able to before. I know Christopher Nolan is big now, but that was really post-Dark Knight, and his success “selling out” to make Batman allowed him to make Inception.
