Enter in 30-year-old Landis who is coming off a terrible year in the film world with America Ultra and Victor Frankenstein. The writer claims America Ultra is this generation’s True Romance. One thing is for sure, Landis has become more infamous for his social media rants than his film work. His latest rant involves dislike for Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
I’m not sure how Hollywood works, but you’re sure as heck don’t want to piss-off J.J. Abrams, Lucasfilm, and Disney if you want to make action / science fiction films. Oh, that’s right! None of them can hear Landis because they are swimming in money like Scrooge McDuck!
Landis in his video below comes off as a spoiled little brat and the epitome of what people consider a millennial to act like. Breaking news for you Max Landis, you haven’t earned anything yet! Shut up and get to work, because you have talent. Don’t waste it worrying about everything and everyone else.
