A movie game that will not allow you to make movies

This Game is a tycoon game, no more, no less. If you want a tycoon game it is Ok, graphics look alright, nothing special and gameplay is like every sim/tycoon game before it. If that is what you want this game is for you.

The reason I am so disappointed is becuase of the ads stating "make your own movie" "control everything". You pick the actors, place the prebuild studio buildings on the lot, pick a director and say go. The computer makes the movie with no input from you. You can go back and "edit" meaning change characters and backgrounds but you cannot control the motions, movements, disalog, etc...

Then you take your "MOVIE" and save it and upload it for others to see, which will be about the same as everyones elses except for background and actor. I was excepting a game that allowed you to control the movements, backgrounds etc....

I think it has reviewed so high is that it is a decent tycoon game, and for some reason a lot of people like tycoon games....

I consider this 50 bucks lost.........
