I wouldn't argue. As far as I'm concerned, it's just a catch phrase.
Some
others, however, have said that more films were ruined by bad sound
than
bad
picture.

Will the real "Bob" please just go anon. and let the idiot(s) do his/
it's thing... someone has to be the "Best"... means someone has to be
the "worst"... I think we have a Winna in our midst. I find it
tragically funny.

well duh... these days a bad "picture" is as called "Art" and that is,
sometimes (like 90%) of why sound sucks... If we had "priority" or
even a little more consideration of what it really takes. I might
"like" my job more than 10% of the time.

I get No Respect... ;( why care ?

You have my sympathies. I know some people connected with a low budget
Michael Imperioli picture. They had only a million bucks. There's a walk'n
talk street scene where the dialog is badly bobbled for a couple of
seconds,
like the boom got lost. I keep wondering, with a million bucks, couldn't
they find a couple minutes to retake it? But what killed it was the
script.
The humor was a little too repetitive.

I produced a TV talk show pilot on a tiny budget. We needed multicam, but
we
couldn't afford it. We got a bunch of vocational kids to shoot it, but
they
just weren't smart enough. They screwed up bad. It took me two weeks to
glean the usable footage and sync it by hand. It was saved by the fact
that
I had a sound pro on the set for the day. We used my prosumer Tascam
board,
and a lot of care, and we got good sound.

This was the first time I saw a 744T, and boy was I hooked! My Portadat
was
the last one B&H took for trade.

1 million... I,ve seen many 80million pics who ain't about to do it
again for "sound" many actors "know" when it;s right, and will refuse
multiple takes

far as cheap*** goes, part of my approach is to "just say no" If I
think I'm being put in a position where my ability to do my part is
compromised by budget or whatever... I tell them I sell "quality" and
not "price"... I'm working a lot less, making better money when I do,
generally get treated like a respected tradesman, am not asked to put
life and limb at needless risk to save a few minutes or pennies. If
more of us "had the cajones to stand up" and not take *** for
gigs...I think there might be a lot less crappy gigs out there. The
interweb is replacing television anyway, and "features" are being shot
on handi cams by "film students"

does the "real" Bob have a C.A.S. or some other stuff like an IA card,
maybe NABET or IBEW... even SAG behind his name... cause I'm sure
these society's would "come down hard" on anyone not "qualified" to
belong to a useless guild or union...

what a whirled !

Jeff, I'm SAG. "Fake Bob", ie., Brian L. McCarty, was a member of IATSE 700,
but left for Australia years ago.
