There used to be an inside joke in the entertainment industry; many people worked as waiters, and there was a tee-shirt, which said on it; 'actor,msinger, dancer, model, waiter'.
Of those who want to have a career, less than 5% actually ever get anywhere (and a fraction of that actually makes it 'big').
Unfortunately, in today's world, where people are obsessed with being'famous', they don't think it entails anything more than that - a desire to be famous.
Here's yet another bit of dreck, and I can just here the conversation between the 'brain' behind this, and someone else, who has their feet planted in reality.
'Hmmm, I'm a twenty-something, and I'm gonna make my original mark I. The entertainment business.'.
'What can I make an amateur series about? I know - all I think about is how horny I am, so, I'll make it about a guy who tries to fight his libido, and put him into a world of sexxxx'.
'Erm, that's not very interesting, nor is it original'.
I'll call it Pillowtalk (one 'word', so I'm not too obviously tealing from Piloow Talk, but, hey; if anyone makes an inference between the two, good for me, right?'
Did you actually study writing, or, any aspect of the film and television industries?'
'No, but, I have seen a lot - I know the entire film and television industry, inside and out - since 2000 (anything before that's 'ancient')'.
'I also know how to make movies with my iPhone!'
'I think you should do what you're really best at . Get a job at a fast-food dive'.
I guarantee anyone wanting their time with trash like this; no one in front, or behind the camera will ever amount to anything more than 'wannabe'.
