Matt Damon and Ben Affleck went on theJoe Rogan Experience to promote their new filmThe Rip, and ended up sharing some very depressing details aboutNetflix’s love of repeated exposition dumps and its approach to filmmaking in this age of constant distraction. AsVariety reports:

“The standard way to make an action movie that we learned was, you usually have three set pieces. One in the first act, one in the second, one in the third,” Damon explained. “You spend most of your money on that one in the third act. That’s your finale. And now they’re like, ‘Can we get a big one in the first five minutes? We want people to stay. And it wouldn’t be terrible if you reiterated the plot three or four times in the dialogue because people are on their phones while they’re watching.’”

The whole interview’s a good read, but she’s wrong that ILM created the first CG shot in a moviewithYoung Sherlock Holmes. It was groundbreaking, butTron,The Last Starfighter,2001: A Space Odyssey,Star Trek II,Westworld, and even 1958’sVertigoall had CG earlier.
