I figured I'd post in here since I am looking for serious responses.

I am thinking of having a minor in Comp Sci and majoring in something else.

I was just looking online for a possible change in major and came across an English (FILM) degree listing.

What does that mean and what kind of job would one NOT be able to get? I have always been interested in making films, but not sure if these two are even related!

Some feedback, please.

" Pressfield was an advertising copywriter, schoolteacher, tractor-trailer driver, bartender, oilfield roustabout, attendant in a mental hospital, fruit-picker in Washington state, and screenwriter.[2] His struggles to make a living as an author, including the period when he was homeless and living out of the back of his car, are detailed in his 2002 book The War of Art.[2] Pressfield's first book, The Legend of Bagger Vance, which was loosely based on the Bhagavad Gita, was published in 1995, and was made into a 2000 film of the same name directed by Robert Redford and starring Will Smith, Charlize Theron, and Matt Damon "

Are you so interested in films that you would live in your car to keep writing and get rejected every day? Thats basically the bar.
