    I dont actually agree with the guys thinking that breen is tired and thus relies on greenscreen. I went to his premiere in LA at an indie film fest and he made sure to tell the audience that this was his most "Technical film". He truly believes the usage of greenscreen makes this film "better" and "more professional". He was proud of the fact that he rented out a 360 greenscreen studio and built sets to incorporate into stock photography. He really thinks this is high tech. This is Breen progressing in film making!

Until it finally listed someone else and everyone began to boo... for about 1 second until they realized the person was credited for animating the CGI Tiger. The crowd then cheered twice as loud.

    Never comment on TH-cam, but as someone who attended the world premiere of Cade for the Hollywood Film Festival last year & sat through the extensive director Q&A at the end: Neil Breen absolutely understands people are laughing at the film. Someone directly asked in the session if he understood people were laughing at what they thought was bad, and his response was essentially "I couldn't be happier that people are genuinely enjoying the film - I make movies to get a reaction".
    Totally agree that he's a very weird guy who probably is on a number of watch lists, but I also think he is entirely genuine in his filmmaking.

      my bet is that there's a market for schlock, movies to run on TV channels, to fill out various kinds of entertainment feeds like those run on the closed-circuit systems of cheap hotels, to fill out streaming service libraries so they don't look sad and tiny, etc.. Sometimes you just need to fill out runtime and you need to do it cheaply. The lion share of their budget goes to getting a small number of pictures people will have actually heard of, or were like actual theatrical releases 20 years ago, but they still need more titles and need them cheap.

    I want to see a Neil Breen-esque movie with the feeling of Birdman, where it's Breen in his twilight years, desperately trying to make a 20 minute film for a festival, and you follow this hyper-competent version of Not!Breen as he directs this film, and you're seeing all these cutting edge techniques, competent camera work, promising actors and every time you catch a little bit of his film, it looks like a serious art-house endeavor you'd see at Sundance.
    Then, on the premiere day, you switch perspectives to one of Not!Breen's investors at a screening, and they show a solid 5-10 minutes of it and it's exactly on the level as this Cade film, and it's just a tiny showing in an editor's studio.
    Then, cut back to Not!Breen's perspective and it's like he's premiering at Cannes or something, and it shows his film as we first saw it, an amazing work of art, people cheering at it.

    i went to the premier of this one in february of 2023 & he did a bit of a q&a after. idk if this is covered in other q&as, but he mentioned when he did work as an architect, he felt his work wasn't as "impactful" - that buildings couldn't make people feel things, but movies could. it seems like he honestly just gets a lot out of an audience reaction, that it doesn't matter WHAT it is (laughter, cheers, noise...), that people are having an intensely passionate reaction to something he worked on. and that's what's driving him. so any passionate attention is good attention.
    he also made offhand comments about how high union wages are and the cost of filmmaking a bit, so there's that. that someone who does effects for "big films" wanted to help him with the tiger fighting scene, for example, but they couldn't because of union restrictions, so instead he worked with someone who was learning as they went.
