God is Fair - Eric Khoo. Discuss

[Joseph12]

He is a multimillionaire scion of KTP
To him, making movie is a passion or hobby, production cost is not an issue and box office is immaterial to him

Then if he got balls and certainly he have tons of money , make a 4 hours epic on history of modern Singapore. Dare or not

So God is still fair
Uncle Eric is so rich
Richer than many much more famous directors I'm sure - NOT the top tier like Spielberg, Nolan etc

But TBF the quality of his work ISN'T good
He can hire top cinematographers or DP but he either didn't or refused to

OK
Putting the technical quality of his films aside , he can basically hire good script writers . Again he didn't or refused to
Some of their scripts, may seem simple but its very very deep.
Eric's stuff isn't

If you are talking about famous Art house directors whether Asian or Europeans , for the former , Uncle Eric loses out to them for sure

And those Film Festival circuits like Cannes love films that basically show the gritty side of society even if its fake but he couldn't or don't know or don't want to do for Singapore

No doubt his product is polished compared to others from Singapore but its still lacking

And I guess he mentors the Boo guy but the Boo guy's 2 films isn't that good too


And to add insult to injury, he's not Singapore's greatest director. That's Jack Neo.
Thats like Aubameyang not being Gabon's greatest footballer but that accolade is given to a Liverpool footballer. So insulting

So God is fair

Boss, is okay you no like Liverpool
But at least make a better reference la
Liverpool no Gabon player…
Might as well say Sir Alex Ferguson is the greatest manager, but the accolade is given to Roy Hodgson when he managing Liverpool
