movies a art or business?

movies is no doubt an art in itself.but people here are seeing it as a major jackpot where they can spawn money by buying other ideas and stamping thier ow names over it.yes its true people who have money buty thier talent with thier money and write thier names over cover pages which breaks up hopes of many young and talented youths in the country.Even tough they are trying to emerge out with thier shear talent they are not given sufficient chance to showcase thier talent. Its pity t say that movies these days have have become less known for thier art but more for thier mpney spawning tool for the rich

I think some movies are art while some movies are business.

it depends upon the mentality of the people..Different people think different things..hence some think movie as an art,and some take it as business..the people who take commercial films always consider movie as a business..but some directors take art films and they consider movie as an art...but we people consider movie as an entertainment which shows some difference from our routine work..

Some says that business could be an art too. The art of making money. Then again there is no rule that says you can't make profit from your art, be it movies, music, painting or other forms of art

ya making a movie is all about bussiness and we ppl fall into it as a prey. If it was an art, each and every movie would have been produced in an artistic way, the way how the artist wants to produce it, not the way people wasnt to see it. Its all a bussiness to make money to get name and fame.

no matter how we think,some film makers and painters still do what they think can gain the biggest benefits,maybe they thought about two sides,or they only want to make money,what should we do ,just see it

It depends what type of film you are talking about. If you mean the multi- million dollar summer blockbuster, that type of film is made for the huge money the studios. But there are still films that are made because the producer and director have vision and want to tell a good story.It is made even if it doesn't make any big money. Usually it is made by an independant film maker who had a vision. Just like an artist has a vision of his painting.Some of them do find an audience and make money, some don't.Movies are art and there are still artist that make film.

they are part art and require extreme skill. they are a piece of art because they are beautiful entertainment, like a painting or a picture. movies potray as if you are there at the scene or place, like a picture which is, an art. they are also a business in a way because they do this for money, like how famous painters like diego rivera, and pablo picasso did for money.

that is a very interesting topic you choose and i do appreciate you opened it i think that now days movies or more of a business then an art..when you look at the amount of movies that are done you will see that most of them are targetd to people to go to the movies and pay for them so they will make alote of money. there are still good artists that do not make movies just for the money..and it is good. i think that art: thaeter,movies and music are more and more becoming a buiness then a way to express the things.. and it is a pitty..don't you think so?

Movies is art to a select few and a business for a lot many more. The reason for this is the artists, directors, producers and all others have to make a living out of the movie. Only if they do so, they will live to make another movie. For some of the well to do actors, it becomes a question of art as they move on in their careers. Cheers! Ram

I think the truth behind it is the film industry would stop thinking so much like a business or more like an art, if they paid the actors and actresses less money. The problem is in order to hit the "Big Screen" they think they need the "Big Names" and the names costs a lot of money. The lower budget movies don't come out as well, graphics wise and a lot of times actors wise either however they are more like art!
