In the another mini-entry, we look at four movies that Spielberg personally oversaw for the different SciFi/Horror/Fantasy audiences and the uncanny reasons why they were all greenlit!
FILMS DISCUSSED:
Arachnophobia, Deep Impact, A.I. & The BFG
TALKING POINTS:
*When Steven had soooo much money and wanted to do a James Bond movie, why didn't he just buy the entire franchise?
*Will Disney come calling back to Spielberg or vice-versa sometime soon?
*Did Spielberg produce Deep Impact as a personal "Screw you!" after an unpleasant BTS encounter with Armageddon star Ben Affleck?
*And how these movies mirror the production of his Amazing Stories TV show?
