I do agree that Indian movies are not crap but the money is at all the wrong places and not were it is needed that is because producers want profit and most of the action flick look like copied from english as they have nearly done everything.
And yeah that is Karthik, not Tamil Karthick its malayalam Karthik. Just a bit cranky about my spelling

thanks karthick for pointing out broken link!
and ya, coming back to point,
as you said, why do we create only “mushy” films and “Hero-oriented” films n all?? Only because people watch and encourage such films. And there are other reasons why film industry is not so sophisticated enough to create speilburg kinda films n all.. I do agree english films “may be” better, but its not that Indian films are crap! Its not that easy maybe. Lets wait for someone to have a film based on why Indian films are bad, and what are the difficulties and constraints behind why Indian films are not good as English. I am sure it would again come back to politics and people and other common reasons…
*just my thoughts*

If we start thinking that even after 60 years we are developing then even 100 or 200 years won’t matter. Saying that Indian Cinema needs time to grow is totaly wrong. Indian Cinema has been there long enough to get on track. What we do is produce large scale mushy movies and small budget action movies that really shows how crap indian cinema is. Inidan action movies rarely feel like they have action and even if it has no superhero the Hero will do stunts that will make him nearly a god. There are a lot of art films which are actually good and many of the Indians watch them too but we rarely watch those types of english films.

Piyush thinking that everyone watches english films and reads english book just for getting noticed by gals is totaly lame. Many watch and read just because of interest. And Harry Potter is nothing but a kids novel. English literature isn’t limited to that. As most of us studied in English mediums it’s easier for us to read compared to hindi. Even reading a hindi comic is difficult for us that is because of what we were taught and how we were taught not because we want to look cool or anything.

And yeah qwertymaniac’s link is non-existent you might want to change it to harshj.com
