Welcome back to our VIP video series "Off the Beaten Path," featuring my friend Christian Toto of Hollywood in Toto! Christian and I start off our week by discussing stories and ideas that may fly under our radar, in culture, politics, sports, and more. Plus, Christian previews his latest podcast at HiT.
Whatever happened to the "movie star"? Christian and Ed discuss the breach of trust between Hollywood and their American audiences, both in personnel and in product. Hollywood just had its worst October in nearly 40 years, outside of the pandemic, and the reasons for that are almost too many to count. Too many sequels? Too many remakes? Too many lectures? We talk about it all, including the new remake of The Running Man and why it's also bombing at a box office that seems to only reward action films. We also discuss the wildly received teaser for the upcoming sequel to The Devil Wears Prada, and why it doesn't make any sense ... except financially.
