Trailers for Megapolis, Francis Ford Coppola latest movie, a science fiction story, which he paid production cost of 120 million out of his own pocket. He couldn't get a distributor until he agreed to pay marketing costs, which could be anything he wants to shell out. Lionsgate took the bait.
Originally conceived in 1977 while working on Apocalypse Now , he started actively creating a script in 1983. The movie production was interrupted twice by major world events that put the everything on hold. He eventually fired the art department, which had just come off making some Marvel movie, apparently because it was using too much money to do the same old thing or else he thought he could do a better job for less money.
Rated R for sexual content, nudity, drug use, language and some violence.
The movie style is far from commercial Hollywood's idea of what a finished script is and what a finished movie looks like. There is talk that TikTok users have no idea what a real movie looks like, and that a movie can run longer than 15 seconds. While this could be a history recreating movie, it could also be a long running TikTok inspired apparition empowered by steroids.
Supposedly it could change what movies look like in the future.
But is it science fiction and does it have character development.
