And if everyone quit so easily, nothing would ever get made. The Dark Knight was a great movie because many talented people took the time to learn their craft and then gave the effort to apply it to the task. They accomplished something great because of the effort they put in for years prior, not just when it was time to work at that moment.zombie wrote:my point was that not everyone has what it takes to be a boss. and even more people are not going to be able to be a boss, even if they had what it takes.Foo wrote:
Thousands of people? Someone has to harvest the grain to make the flour to bake the bread if you are going that far back. Someone has to pave the road for the truck to drive on, etc. I am not quite sure what you are getting at.
Do I have help? Yes, I do. But that help also comes with obligations. Right now, my payroll runs about $13,000 a month. It was six years ago when I was practicing making cupcakes and drinks and posting pictures here, before there was a food truck or a retaurant, or the other things. It had to be built.
Keep in mind, I am half retarded, and 100% hillbilly, so I have to work hard. You are probably smarter than I am and every bit as capable, but I am determined to win like no other. So yes, you could.
if everyone who worked on the dark knight decided to try to direct instead. there would be no dark knight. if everyone who helps metallica be metallica decided to become musicians instead, it would fall apart. cause you need people to support you. those people are not going to be bosses themselves. it won't work. it's good to strive for that, but the majority of people either are not able to make it work, or won't have the opportunity to make it work.
How many unambitious people do you think work on movies like that?
