Re: #45 - Unpopular Opinions (316 replies, posted in Episodes)
Confession time - after being a devoted LOST fan from day one, the final season disappointed me so badly that to this day I haven't seen the last two or three episodes. Once the island became Hogwarts By The Sea, they didn't have to make anything make sense anymore. So wherever they were headed in the finale, I'd stopped caring.
I read a few synopses of the finale - since I wasn't worried about spoilers any more - and it sounded about as lame as I was afraid it would be.

As we discuss a bit in the episode, BB isn't available in any form of general release yet. Right now John's making the rounds of festivals and conventions etc, which is standard practice as the first step for an indie project.
The goal is to collect as many "Grand Prize in the _________ Festival" and "Official Entry in ___________ Festival" as you can, in order to make the project seem all the more worthwhile to a potential distributor and encourage them to want to pick it up for release.

So the argument here is "don't even try to sell products because people would rather steal them"?
People like cars and most of us would rather get them for free than pay for them. Should car manufacturers just leave cars on the street with the keys inside, in hopes that people will give them a few bucks before they drive away? It's an interesting concept, but seems like it would be unsustainable as a business. 
The idea that someone, anyone, should spend time and effort making a media product, then make it available for free and hope that users will donate money afterward... well, to an end user it probably sounds great, but that isn't a business model that any other industry follows. And for good reason.
