‘Justice League’ (2017)
4. Paralysis of Analysis or Oversight
Two opposite sides of the spectrum:
- Paralysis of analysis is where marketing executives, studio executives, producers, and directors put too much time into analyzing the potential success of a film either through multiple edits or edits driven solely by test audience reactions.
- Oversight where the same people were on cruise control throughout the whole process, missing crucial elements.
This happens a lot. It’s usually the result of too many hands in the cookie jar on the studio level. An outstanding script can be adapted so poorly that it barely resembles what it was before the screenwriter handed over their final draft.
