Every other movie is one of those action things.
I mean, 'Lost in Space'? A bunch of good actors running around shooting at special effects on a soundstage? I took my kids to see that and felt like I was on an acid trip.

Yes, because it's Len's obsession with practical.
I've never really had that experience that I hear people having of being on an empty soundstage painted green talking to a tennis ball on a stick.
