But I think the international crossover appeal theory is legitimate. More specifically...that appealing to foreign audiences has changed the nature of what gets the greenlight. The end result seems to be a disproportionate value in spandex costumes. Movies that emphasize dialogue are less successful and movies that provide more visual cues are more successful. I'm trying to imagine watching Die Hard with no sound. A movie like Spiderman could be viewed without sound much better.
