Honestly I’m totally fine if we didn’t get more leaks, mainly because I’m Sick and Tired of redoing my tracklist for my album over and over 

 

jumprope, cooties and eraser can hold me off for a year or two tbh

I actually disagree with this, I think the whole filming in Hungary thing is what ruined the movie

 

Theres no way to know if the script "was ruined from the start" because taking like two thirds of a script out and trying to work with that completely changes the storyline and direction. The script was doomed the minute she decided to spend the budget on filming in hungary. She shouldve gone for some sort of artsy indie movie style or sumn, she was shooting too high for someone who's only started getting into film-making

I think the movie had alot of potential to be some sort of rlly cool twisted pastel tim burton-ish matilda type of story.

 

 

You estimate how much you actually need for the movie while writing the script. Just the idea of "oh yeah let's make it 3 hours!" is out of reality. She didn't have the practice for long-film writing (because well... it IS different of writing a cute treatment for your music video without dialogue, sequences or anything at all). That's what I meant with "doomed from the start", she could have the greatest ideas for the whole concept, it needed the right hands to trimmer it.

 

She always aimed higher with the "aesthetic" side than the "story", so it's great she managed to produce something in such a huge escale in Hungary. It's actually cheaper to shoot on location in some "smaller" countries in Europe than actually doing it in studio\location in US. 6 Million budgets is still crazy but she probably owned that after Cry Baby having its own success and touring endlessy to have the money plus saving with these cheap songs from K12 but that's another topic.

I find it kinda ironic that I was listening to the leaks at the exact same time mel posted that 

I'm confused by the thought process behind this? Why do you think shooting in a specific country ruined the movie? Like what does that influence? If they had a certain art direction and aestheic in mind they would achieve the same results anywhere they shoot, no? Like how could the location be so critical.

what's wrong with Hungary honey :/ the location was beautiful

 

the problem was that the project as a whole was too much for her to handle, not that the shooting took place in Hungary lol i don't get this

I am pretty sure they meant by spending so much on shooting in another country + at a castle basically. She put herself to such high expectations and it kind of fell flat

Renting an entire castle for a month wiped out half the budget. As beautiful as it was, it really meant she had to sacrifice a LOT of other things.
