The reason to bring up this business aspect of movies is because, imagine if christian bale made 2 original movies back to back with Nolan and nothing in between and due to nolan's starpower those movie will be hits while giving more exposure to christian bale and THEN if christian bale made movies with mckay or mangold or david o russell that are all legitimate awards contenders with november or december release dates and a bunch of nominations to their name even before they are released from various critics groups or such, then those movies will make money and will improve bale's starpower. Because these directors are like tarantino/scorsese in terms of making commercial/awards worthy and entertaining movies. So that potent combination and series of events does create a legitimate movie star or even invigorate an actor's star power. Its just that we dont have such directors in abundance.
I think you've got the causality on this backwards as to how films get nominations (and I think there's loads of counterexamples you're skipping over in favor of the same two or three actors you always seem to want to talk about), but leaving that aside, my question is the same as above: why does this matter to you?
Let's tease out what you're actually trying to say, because whatever it is I'm not sure it's being properly conveyed:
The reason to bring up this business aspect of movies is because
Okay, you're saying "because," so what follows should be an explanation of why you care so much about the business aspect.
imagine if christian bale made 2 original movies back to back with Nolan and nothing in between
We're off the rails already because rather than follow with a straight explanation you've launched into an example/hypothetical. Very confusing phrasing to do this after "because," but no worries, still following along and waiting for the reason you care about it.
due to nolan's starpower those movie will be hits while giving more exposure to christian bale
and THEN if christian bale made movies with mckay or mangold or david o russell that are all legitimate awards contenders with november or december release dates and a bunch of nominations to their name even before they are released from various critics groups or such, then those movies will make money and will improve bale's starpower
You're describing what you think will be the effect of all this, but still not explaining what you care about or why. You say all this would be good because Christian Bale would get more "exposure" (nevermind that he's already world famous and widely respected) and it would improve his "starpower." So...that's the reason? You're a Christian Bale fan and want to see him do well? I ask because, as has happened in a lot of these threads, you're phrasing the initial post as if you're talking about some big, systemic problem with the industry, but when we tease it out it turns out to be a lot narrower than that.
