Post 9 What creative actions ensure a great movie? Umh? I think to ask that one cannot compare a great movie to a bad movie, but one must compare it to say, a film that could have been a good movie.
To create a great movie requires many things, the original screenplay, story development, the director’s choice of shots, but ultimately what emerges from the editing room and screenings determines what you will see.
Batman v Super man has been delayed for two reasons, script development and as the production company has stated a better movie.   Recently I saw the Monuments men.  It was delayed to change the tone of the movie was it a comedy, a drama, a buddy movie, a homage to WW2. Umh?

Perhaps all of the above. The critics hated it, at the end; I just felt it had to be trimmed down a bit perhaps thirty minutes.  But if Clooney had parachuted Cate Blanchett to fight with the boys it would have been a great comedy.
