thank you Maurice Vaughan !

You're welcome, Sebastian Tudores. What do you think about A-list-driven movies?

Sebastian Tudores

good question Maurice Vaughan - I think Geoff is right. Audiences are looking for more than the name - they assume with it will also come a great movie. And what makes an 'A-lister' is also always changing, right?

Maurice Vaughan

I think audiences are looking for more than the name, Sebastian Tudores. I'd rather see a no A-lister movie that has an incredible concept and story than a movie with A-listers but an okay concept and story.
