Any of you watching the show on HBO? Pretty good. The movie they are shooting in the series just premiered at Sundance and it got really good reviews. Very interesting.

I thought it was a great idea, I just wonder if those two tools really had anything to do with it or HBO needed starpower to get anywhere with it. I will watch it, though. I am fascinated by the filmaking process.

I caught like one episode of it, all they showed the whole time was the directors *****ing at eachother like every two seconds, its amazing the movie turned out alright

Chris Moore seems like he has the strongest role in the making of this movie. He was in a good part of the first couple episodes. Matt and Ben were probably just there for the first two episodes for the power they had in getting the project moving forward.

The show is dominated by 2 associate producers who back stab each other brutally. Both of them suck. All the problems they are having are freaking no brainers. Why anyone would shoot dialogue shots underneath a train is beyond me.

They have made a pretty good series out of it though. They are concentrating so much on the two producers\' clash that Pete Jones the director has kind of been left off to the side.

It\'s great watching this show when you are in the business. I would have liked to have gotten into film. Maybe one day. TV shows aren\'t bad though. They pay the bills.
