 Lots of people have commented that Hollywood is formula-based now. Have
 an action film set in X city with these actors and you're guaranteed a
 return of X dollars. Not much room for inventive film in Hollywood -
 but that's what independent film is for - and the investment floor is
 so low nowadays that I've seen indie films shot on iPhones!
