Talk:Detropia

Detroit and Utopia
I might be nitpicking, but isn't the title a play on words / portmanteau on Detroit and dystopia, as opposed to utopia? Crackettt (talk) 22:40, 25 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi there - I don't think that you are nitpicking at all. However, let me paste in this excerpt from the cited interview with one of the two directors:


 * LAMB: OK, more from the, Detropia. By the way, who named it?


 * EWING: I did.


 * LAMB: And when did you get that?


 * EWING: A couple of weeks before Sundance. We, we didn’t have a title.


 * LAMB: Sundance the film festival?


 * EWING: Yes, we opened the film at Sundance in January and they needed a title because we had sent them a cut and with a temporary title and we couldn’t figure out what to call it. And there’s a shot in the film where an auto parts store has been converted by an artist to read instead of auto parts, it reads Utopia. And a guy is walking by it and we started playing with the concept that Detroit was a utopia for many. And we started combining the words.


 * So, I hope that is helpful. KConWiki (talk) 02:57, 26 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Ok, then, fair enough. Thanks KConWiki. Crackettt (talk) 06:13, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
