The State of R-Rated Comedies, With Evan Goldberg
Matt is joined by Point Grey cofounder Evan Goldberg to discuss his latest release, \u2018Joy Ride,\u2019 and how comedies can become theatrical successes once again. They discuss how theatrical releases rely on eventizing the film, what the studios are looking for when it comes to comedies, and if it is possible for someone to create comedies with the same strategy that Blumhouse uses to create horror movies. Also, they talk about the censorship of comedies, if it is still possible for comedies to produce stars, and why Point Grey is hesitant to work with Marvel and DC. Matt finishes off the show by making a prediction on \u2018Mission: Impossible \u2013 Dead Reckoning Part One.\u2019\n\nFor a 20 percent discount on Matt\u2019s Hollywood insider newsletter, \u2018What I\u2019m Hearing ...,\u2019 click here.\nEmail us your thoughts! thetown@spotify.com\n\nHost: Matt Belloni\nGuest: Evan Goldberg\n\nProducer: Jessie Lopez\nTheme Song: Devon Renaldo\nLearn more about your ad choices.
