I have seen The Godfather and it doesn't impress me at all. John Waters and Pedro Almodovar movies are so much better than that mainstream trash.

Coppola is even out of low flying F's to give. I don't believe he cares whether he has a distributor or if the movie ends up getting dumped onna shtreaming site. He just wants to tell one last story before he dies. He just wants to put it out there. And put out there it will. Even if it's just available on the high seas. THAT'S how much of a true artist he really is. Munny? Screw that. It's all about telling the story. Kudos to him!

That’s exactly what he said about Apocalypse Now. He stated that the film is shit and that he was so bothered by it to the point where he didn’t know how to finish the movie until he stopped giving a F and said who cares at the end of the day he knows that he will be the one to watch his own creation.

The reception so far hasn't been kind. It's possible that the studios think Coppola is washed-up, and the critics seem to agree. Even the positive reviews are struggling to find nice things to say about it.

"Cloud Atlas" is a masterpiece

The Postman is the example I usually think of. It's almost completely forgotten now. When was the last time you heard someone talk about The Postman? Costner recently did another longtime passion project too. I don't know how many of these epic passion projects have been good but I don't think it's many

Francis spent 200 million on the budget he didn’t have enough money left over to buy reviews like Disney. Because he doesn’t have a distributor whose interest is it in to give the film good reviews?

Hmmmm, Cloud Atlas is actually one of my favorite films.

I think you do yourself a disservice as a movie commentator by commenting on a new FFC movie without having watched his career high movies.

I’m sure he’ll make a direct deal with the theaters just like Taylor Swift did.

Sorry I'm commenting too much on here, but oh well. I strongly suspect that this film is a train wreck, but I won't judge based on an incoherent trailer. The distribution issue: Coppola has not had a hit film in more than thirty years. He has also had mega-flops before: the musical "One from the Heart." If he finds a way to self-distribute (borderline impossible), it will echo his utopian faith in independent distribution that marked his earliest years and his short-lived production company American Zoetrope. But I can't lie-- I'm not sure I'm up for 3+ hours of his megalomaniacal blather, even on IMAX...

I fail to understand the point of this video.

All the money comes from the Coppola brand of wine. He still produces wine, so he doesn't need this film to make a profit. This all happened before with Apocalypse Now. Coppola financed Apocalypse Now and it was too weird for distributors. Eventually, people started to understand the film and it has become a classic movie with profits for Coppola.

@SuperRobertoClemente

Actually, this is not true. Apocalypse Now made a $70 million profit at the box office, not later as a cult classic. Coppola's wine business started after that film, in 1980, but wasn't labeled "Coppola" until 2010. He sold much of his stake in it to fund "Megalopolis," so that's not going to be a continued source of self-funding going ahead. It's likely the last film he will ever make.

@@SuperRobertoClemente That $70million wasn't made right away. It sounds like it took at least 3 years to make the bulk of that $70 million. I remember receiving a bottle of Coppola wine with the Coppola name on it in the 90's from family in the San Francisco area. Last week at Cannes, Coppola claimed that he was already starting his next film. That sounds like the wine is still a cash cow for him. He also mentioned that Apocalypse Now is still playing in theatres all over the world.

@@erwinquiachon8054 So the reason it took 3 years for AN to make its box office profits is that back then, blockbusters would remain in theaters for years. This happened with Star Wars, Jaws, all the biggies. The first video store only opened in 1977 and it took a few years for that to become a cornerstone of the movie business. Prior to video / DVD / streaming, the movie would be around for a while so people could see it more than once.
