Why is Morrison such a failure? I thought he left comics to make break into Hollywood

What is the difference between Johns and Moz? Why is Johns such a success?

Well, his stories are much less complex than Morrison's.
Hollywood is to basic for complex story telling and meta narratives. Look how Prometheus was received. Prometheus isn't really that deep a film. All the answers you need are addressed in the film when certain character discuss things. It's almost too obvious.
>>89259266
Because he's shit.
>>89259909
Moore fuck off
>>89259887
Prometheus' narrative wasn't confusing, it was just structurally a poor film.
>>89259982
While I love Prometheus, I agree on your assessment of the film having a poor structure.

You know, it's a shame, because I was thinking about this exact thing the other day, and Prometheus had a lot of potential. it could have been something really great if they'd cut the bullshit and deliver what was expected.
>>89261207
It's Lindelof. Literally everything he writes has the exact same problem and Prometheus was unlucky enough to come out before Hollywood realized he's a fraud.
>>89259557
Johns is a bitch of the executives, he got his job by sucking Jewish dick
In fairness, Morrisson technically should have one story credit since the Matrix is literally stolen wholesale from the Invisibles.

The Leftovers is great, but it also literally promised that there ARE no answers, so people should stop complaining about things not being explained

You don't try to perceive Cthulhu by taking a selfie with it
>>89259887
Prometheus was received bad because people went in for an Alien movie and got an Exogenesis movie.
Also, did they address how the android could learn to talk the builders language?
>>89261564
The Leftovers is vastly overrated pretentious garbage that is mostly propelled by the mysteries it claims aren't the point of the show.
>>89259557
He writes stories for retards and comes up with ideas to sell more toys.

>good things happen to good people
WHAT A TWIST
>>89259266
he just can't write for shit

>good
>>89262434
still a nicer person than Grant "I would love to drive my car over Millar's body" Morrison
>>89259887
>>89260354
that movie was fucking horrid, get some taste holy shit
I love Morrison, but I'd prefer that he stick to comics.
>>89262474
>nice
Millar is a backstabber. That's why he's banned at 2000AD and DC.
