Madame Web KILLS The Disney Girlboss - Long Live Heroes
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ก.ย. 2024
- Madame Web reviews recently came out for the Sony Marvel movie, much to Hollywood's dismay. Disney changed the marvel MCU to center characters like She-hulk and focus on ramakes like Snow White with Rachel Zeger. But do audiences want this? Madame Web proved that the disasters keep getting worse, is it the end of the girlboss? Has Disney realised they need to change? Is Madame Web worth watching?

Madame Web Reviews left a lot to be desired, but were far from the only time a movie has failed in recent time for the reason of a Hollywood girlboss. This has caused Disney to "retool" in horror as they blame the bigoted fans for not liking the ideas that have been force fed to them. But this goes deeper than just which actor plays a role. It's down to the values and messaging of entertainment, and are we going to use masculine morality, or something else? And while Disney may WANT to retool, may TRY to change direction. But can they do that with the same staff hired that caused the problems in the first place? Do they even KNOW what the audience wants, even begrudgingly? Or are Disney's hiring practices so hard baked into the company that there is no turning back anymore? Let me know your thoughts down below and as always, thanks for watching :)
We when from Ellen ripley and Sarah connor to Reva and Madame web... truely a fall in every single way of measurement
It's like asking the BAD PEOPLE FROM GERMANY to be nice to Jewish people and pamper them. They're not going to change, this is a religion to them. Even if Bob Iger really wants to change, the activists he helped put into the workforce and lower and middle management won't let him. Just like they rebelled against Bob Chapek.
not seem madame web yet but if it's like the rest of the ok chick flicks then most of the haters that talk trash never even seen it and if you asked them anything about it it was clear they only hate cause some YT clown told them too.
@@the_piper001 The majority of those who viewed it were still men. So women did not support their own movie. Just like with The Marvels. In general women don't like capesh1t movies, so maybe Hollywood should stop trying to ram a cube through a round hole and accept that this is a male genre. But you go ahead and play the moral high horse. As if we haters convinced the majority of the audience to give this movie a miss.
@@chaptermasterpedrokantor1623 you on crack mate ....what moral high ground .......all i said was the movie was ok ....i like chicks......you alll like dudes ..........now there is nothing wrong with you likeing dudes so stop deflecting
"We're not retreating! We're advancing in a rearwards direction!"
- Hollywood at present.
Ukraine army's methot
Newspeak at it's best!
Marvel bosses said something similar about their *REBOOT* ... _"we're not rebooting the MCU, were doing a a creative re-tooling!!"_ 🤣🤣🤣
I rather like ‘strategic retrograde advance’. Wish I could remember and credit the originator.
Falling & failing upwards.
The other trope that needs to end is "the girl/woman who is the key to everything" and becomes awesome when she "realizes" she is awesome.
I'm MoAR awesomer now!!
The problem isn't "the girl/woman who is the key to everything" aspect, as many series have done it and have been successful (take example of Japanese Anime like the ongoing "Apothecary Diaries" or "Frieren" both focusing on female main characters and both being highly popular).
The problem is the forced idea that men are the issues of all problems while woman are all great and the solution to all problems. That it's wrong for a woman to rely on a man and should either rely on themselves or other women only, and like you said "realizes she is awesome" and she is complete and perfect from start (and it's Men who are making them imperfect and dragging them down).
The biggest issue is that, in order to put Women on the high pedestal, what they are doing is bringing down the Men, by various means, rather than co-working.
@@Sup_DI'm not interested in Anime like that either.
@@bkatbamna you dont need to know anime like that it just proves that not being able to write female mains is american thing
@@derp_wolf9688That's not an American thing, it's just shitty writers/directors making shit.
The mistake the studios made was letting activists that advised on certain topics push their way from external freelance advisor into full time decision maker positions. They see the companies as a vehicle to deliver their messages and are entirely uninterested in making sound business decisions.
@RayTX1337 not a mistake though, that was the intention. it allowed them to control the narrative over what is and what isn't a good movie by making it on a Woke scale. all the while got us to get so triggered we did free advertising for them. it's a nasty business that fucks everyone, reduces the quality to 0, but does make them low-risk money.
Actors, Hollywood by and large is very liberal and progressive period They didn't need to be convinced of anything.
You are already lost when you hire 'activists' to 'advice on certain topics'. Because what you need are _professionals_ and specialists, not people with an agenda.
THIS IS ON PURPOSE. FFS
They created specific departments to supervise all this “inclusion”…
Rebooting is pointless as long as the same people are still in charge. Disney *ITSELF* needs a reboot.
The entertainment industry is FILLED with those people and it's not going to change any time soon. They KNOW they're losing money, but the billionaires keep on funding them to continue spreading 'the message'.
Disney, Fox .. the whole writers association… needs to be a massive industry reboot… and while at it please also reboot the gaming industry
It's not just the people in charge that need to go. The people hired to meet their diversity quotas also need to go. Hiring based on experience and competence needs to be a requirement again.
@@stephenthomas1492 Even if the billionaires stopped funding them, the lower ranks, the activists in the workforce, lower and middle management, will rise and stop the reboot from happening. Like they rebelled against Bob Chapek. The CEO's are no longer in control, they've let the inmates of the asylum come in and now they rule the corporations. Only a full Twitter style purge of 80 to 90% of the workforce can save and change Disney.
DEIsney needs to be purged and rebuit from the ground up.
"There's a certain liberation to my plumbing business no longer being popular. I get to starve in peace without all those pesky paying customers expecting me to do my job!" Eh, Natalie?
I smell bots giving rachel zegler stunt action award of the year from a mile away
"Remember, go out and and make a speech about how much you love movies. We need to undo the damage where you spoke from the heart"
And yet she still took the award...if she had any humility, she would have refused it.
As long as she loves them in the right direction
@@rogerwagner6940- I hope the movies love her back because the fans certainly don’t.
It's weird-weird that anyone would have connected hunger games to the action genre.
Ah the good ol' rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic strategy of business!
😅😅😅 Excellent analogy.
I think it is more a case of seeking out more icebergs to ram.
If only they could rearange them into X and Y positions titanics of the world will he saved 😂
This is EXACTLY what Disney is doing.
@@mudcrab3420If they ram into the iceberg, the titanic wouldnt have sunken
In Greece, Theater was meant to inspire. The hero made a misjudgment. He suffered the consequences, learnt and improved. Is that so hard to understand?
Have you seen the series Ewan McGregor did biking across Russia? He treated his mate like absolute shit. True Hollywood style.
Nope. When he dumped his wife for his co-star, I lost respect for him. Then the co-star dumped him after she had her fling and ruined his marriage. Seriously, he couldn't see "sl*t" from a mile away???
Then he agreed to that travesty Kenobi.
Alec Guinness is my Obi Wan.
@@emdee8840 I hate to burst your ignorant, misinformed, stupidity filled bubble, but Mary Elizabeth Winstead didn't dump Ewan McGregor. On the contrary, she married him almost two years ago now, and gave him a son, Laurie. In fact, McGregor spent Christmas with his large blended family, including wife Mary Elizabeth Winstead, his ex-wife Eve Mavrakis, and all of their kids. _People_ magazine has all the pics.
The fact is, only an idiot judges a complete stranger based on bullshit, lies, and unsubstantiated rumors they read on the internet. As much as you might like to think you do, you don't know shit about the ins and outs of McGregor's marriage with his ex. So, stop being a self-righteous asswipe who talks about things of which you know _nothing._
I guess the force isn’t strong with him.
Working towards one’s own passion and ideas is a luxury. Most people are subject to the wishes of their clientele and do not get paid for things the clients did not want or ask for.
That's not even true. Just don't spend a billion dollars making it. Hence why the indies are replacing them.
@@acrab6527 by working I really mean getting a steady paycheck.
"Insufferable cows who need to smile more" is TOO accurate 😂
Sydney Sweeney on the red carpet in that web dress was the best thing about Madame Web. LOL
Diparu's really getting his moneys worth of that Rachel Zegler screenshot
I used to really like superhero movies. I have a big brother so I always thought things he liked were cool... fantasy, star wars, super heroes. I loved these things and enjoyed them for what they were. I never thought, "wow... I wish I was represented...." I could go to other things and watch rom-coms and musicals and other things if and when I felt like it, but I liked Superhero movies how they were. I got "fatigued" before the girl boss era, so I'm REALLY lucky in that respect. I think the last Marvel movie I saw in theatres was Captain America Civil War. Went to the theatres to see Star Wars Force Awakens (which happened to be just a few weeks after my father passed away) and when they killed Han Solo we were like, "Nope. Okay. We're done." Also, 2016 we started down the road of watching Korean Dramas and we haven't looked back since. Way more interesting, way more intelligent, and even if some tropes and situations are over played, I don't even care. It's FUN and I'm entertained.
At this point Commifornia (TM Nerdrotic) needs a reboot to be California again. But how likely is that.
I think rebooting it into the pacific ocean is the only way.
@bastiangugu4083 nerdrotic is amazing but clueless about california, no idea that california is 0% commie, 100% corporate establishment.
Corporate Media: "California is communism! California is socialism! Repeat this guys!"
meanwhile you can't find even 1 economic policy in California that isn't from the corporations, the big establishment businesses.
It's the exact same thing in reverse, the corporate media has got all the leftists to label the south cities as full of racist idiots without knowing the southern states are also corporate establishment controlled.
@@darthlaurel you know someone who lives in California and someone who lives in Texas want 99.999999% the same policies?
cnn and fox, biden and trump spend all their energy getting us to hate each other. californians are your allies.
He didn't come up with that. He also didn't come up with Taxachusetts either.
@@archstanton9073 I didn't know that, I only heard it on his channel, so I assumed. Who did come up with it?
Great points as always. I still believe everything the entertainment industry is doing is 100% on purpose. They already knew they would alienate the current audiences and knew they would lose billions. They know it is essential to the transformation of the next generation.
Also, I love hearing BASED ECONOMY! 😁
This. BlackRock and Vanguard are just asset stripping Gordon Gekko style.
We are smack in the middle of Maos cultural revolution. It's so easy to see, yet so many are blind to it.
@@NateWilliams-h8q That's because most are not even mildly versed in Chancellor Mao and his rise to power. If you have never read about him, you only know the infinitesimal tidbits received on occasion and even those are delivered with a political slant.
An ignorant populace is truly a nation of slaves. Indeed, "My people perish for lack of knowledge."
"Yes,Agatha is AMAZING. Who wants to spend eight hours looking at her!"🤣Touche!
Man, I love your delivery and the quick wit in your commentary, [chef's kiss]. Subbed when you were less than 100k and can't wait to see the drive to 1 million! Cheers from Texas!
"Tiktokers got there because of their talent" I never thought I'd hear that phrase in my life.
This is my problem with reacher. It's a great show, but they made a HUGE mistake adding woman to the military company. First they're simply gagging for Reacher the entire time which is annoying, then it gets rid of the brotherhood and comradery we actually want to see, and of course the two woman in the group are the first found and super intelligent, and insufferable. I just want a show with male protagonist. Include a money penny at the most.
"I just want a show with male protagonist"
I understand. I want that too. We simply wont get it from any current day mid-to-big-budget western company though. Its just not going to happen. They will ALWAYS inject feminism into everything they make. They cant help themselves. They cant think outside of that box because they _are_ the box. The best they can do is make it a little more subtle than it is in other current day shows, but thats not good enough for me. I dont want just a little bit of shit on my steak. I want a steak without any shit on it.
The choice is to watch older stuff, indie stuff or nothing at all. Even with the older and indie stuff, you still have to sift through a mountain of feminism-riddled garbage before you find something decent. I barely even watch movies and shows anymore.
I despise Reacher because the guy is a feminist simp dog. He lets bratty women bytch slap him and just takes it. I hate that. I hate that people think its ok for women to hit men. Its not. I hate that the media has normalized that misandrist idea. If you slap me, im slapping back. I dont care if you have a vajayjay and you think it makes you untouchable. It doesnt.
I'm a girl and I agree. I miss having crushes on characters.
Preach brother! They won't listen so let em sink!
Hero actions are basicaly unwriten, and subconsciosly known by anyone, because they support life usualy! Even animals can be heroic, and understand when someone else is heroic, and helps for example. Its a pretty universal thing!!
'Even animals can be heroic' definitely rings true, even when said animal isn't one found in real life. Godzilla and Kong are both used in this manner (Godzilla I think has had it longer due to his Showa era self being full hero mode) in the monsterverse lately even if people criticize it for various reasons
@@Furydragonstormer i mean real animals. I have seen them do things, that they are not supposed to.
Like a lion saving baby deer.
There is definetly stories about dogs.
Some birds reason prety well. And even fish can make friends and enemies.
There is universal things that almost any animal understands, including humans.
Even spiders are afraid for example... Its life!
They have a sunny outlook for the Darkhold Diaries. That's fu*king hilarious. I think that show is going to exemplify Disparu's best point. The immorality of the show producers (writers, directors, showrunners etc.) makes it impossible for them to portray real heroes because they don't understand the concept of real heroism. 😀
Lol I thought that said “US *Steaming* pile”
If you want to know why Disney is deliberately failing at any cost, listen to James Lindsay’s speech to the EU Parliament. It breaks down “capturing the means of production” brilliantly.
This is the best Disparu I’ve seen.
The problem is that writers and producers arent following the source material. I mean when was the last time a authors novel was successfully adapted to film
The girls on the bus go wah wah wah
Once again you have really outdone yourself. Clear and concise. Thank you for the effort and work that you have put into your channel. You would be a great asset to a Disney think tank.
So are we now getting good movies again with just good writing without some kind of agenda ? Is the madness finally over ? If that was the case Disparu needs another job.
My thoughts are that if they kept Sydney Sweeney in the outfit for most of the movie and didn’t put her in a freaking chest binder, it would’ve been better.
Having old, madam, web, send her through a portal in time, because that shit cheetahs in the cartoon and have Sydney Sweeney running around, trying to make sure that Peter Parker gets born.
And in order to do this, she has to awake, madden, webs, powers, couple of years early or something.
I can't remember the last new movie I went to see.
I love these videos. Plus the pirate teeth gimmick always cracks me up lol
The red carpet is a person with feelings now I can see just how sick Hollywood is full of brain dead people.
This situation is not unique to Disney. Major media companies in all kinds of industries, from journalism to game development, hire based on DEI. It's natural that people who are hired in this way will double down on whatever got them the job. The news outlets, AI, Hollywood, gamedev, it's the same everywhere, the workers don't care about profits or merit, they only care about getting "the message" out, even if it kills their industry. If it's them losing their jobs or the industry being killed, of course they choose the latter.
Propaganda is the point, not profit. I don’t expect this shit to end soon, especially since it takes a few years for most films to be finished and released.
I never had issues with girl bosses but lately thats almost 80% the focus of marvel. When was the last show with a NEW male hero? Moon Knight yeah?
The whole idea that there aren't any strong female leads in movies is 'tarded. There have been strong female leads in basically every genre of movies since Gone with the Wind. Today it's really not about girl bosses. It's all about the ESG and DEI messages being pushed by BlackRock on all of the companies that they have loaned money to and the ripple effects of that.
I saw Peter Criss' solo band KRISS live in my town. They didn't like how mellow the crowd was so the singer was like "All right everybody, this is a new song we just wrote, I hope you all like it" and then they started playing randomly as loud as they could and they sang 'Springfield sucks! Springfield sucks!' over and over again for several minutes. I didn't know at the time how avant garde he really was.
Sounds to me like Pearson is the guy they just give scripts to for a final touch-up, not because he is good, but because that is his job in the company. He is like the retailm manager who is put in to failing stores not to make them better, but so they can reassign the previous manager somewhere else.
People dont know Hollywood actors anymore because Hollywood studios decided the IP of franchises was more important than having universal stars that command more money. It's been decades since the age of the action hero, or rat pack comedians who did tons of movies that were all hits. So now the Names are on social media making a name for themselves.
Hollywood has forgotten that “Entertainment” used to be “an escape” from everyday life. Now they want to shove their perverse version of life down our throats!!
just saw an ad for… ANOTHER ghostbusters movie before this video 🤦🏻♀️ … i just… i have no words
AI Sora will wipe these "moral highground" Hollywood actors/actresses back where the sun doesn't shine. Individual talents will write their own "based" scripts and play it out like TH-cam. This will be a new revolution in entertainment. I can see it.
God i hope so. I hope they wont castrate the AI to be woke.
Bryan Cranston looks pathetic in that clip. Union "until the end" means his cushy retirement with hundreds of millions
They are really going for the Cut throat island was just ahead of its time. The people just weren't ready for it.
You are adorable on the FNT thumbnail, Disparu! :D
The problem for me and I think most sane people isn't that it's a woman doing anything, it's that they can just do anything whenever they want, no growth, change/training/arc or anything just "yeah, I can do this because I'm a woman and women can do anything "
The problem is putting women in mens roles. We are not interchangeable.
I'm not a conservative, so I can't agree with you on all your points. (For example I don't think that movie stars hate people like me and don't care what they say on Twitter.) But your main point is excellent, and I agree with you on that completely: the problem is the people who run the studios and make the decisions, because they're out of touch with modern audiences.
That unnamed Disney executive you quote is making one fundamental mistake, probably because they don't want to accept that their values are the problem. It isn't just the segment of the audience that has been politicized that sees the messaging in films as a quality issue - _it's everyone._ The Marvels didn't fail that hard because conservatives checked out - everybody checked out, because general audiences have learned to identify "messaging" as the common factor in movies they don't enjoy. When the heroes are always girl bosses and the villains are always cowardly men there's no dramatic tension. You can predict the whole story just from who's cast in the roles. That's boring, and people have had enough of it.
any movie that claims to have "the 1st" (insert "marginalized" group here) as it's value is an immediate no
They no longer make movies for general audience. They make movies for activist-minded people and those represent very few percentages.
That's a great question.. I'd love a Hollywood exec to say if they would make suits again in the same format, style etc.
Think we know what the answer would be...
They could have EASILY compromised, and if they had, most people would probably find the movies good enough to see.
They don't want the "old gender stereotypes", and, CLEARLY, audiences don't want the "new gender stereotypes". So why the hell couldn't they have just avoided gender stereotypes altogether??? Because they worship themselves, that's why.
i had a redical idear: what if hollywood wodent hire people with no experienc for big buget projecs but gife them lowe buget projects to prove them selfs and if they had some successful moves they get the big bugets, priverable in the same ganre
Because it's not hiring, I. E., qualifications for a job.. It's casting colors and sex organs in roles.
@dacritter8397 That is exactly my point, but I tried to propose a solution instead of bashing. In a world where my proposal is radical, I don't wound to life.
Awesome Vid!
Thank You very much for Your Work! Greetings from Germany
"We The People, being worn weary, yet of sound mind. Retain a patience for a set of time."
Did she say?, "The Red Carpet is a person with feelings!" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
5:09 "I'm not about to let a man take credit for a woman's work."
Fixed: "I'm not about to let a woman blame men for their own mistakes..."
The hero is very much alive. Some of the stories coming out of Ukraine are enough to give a man a lump in his throat. Young lads in their teens surrounded fighting off dozens of enemies single handed. Wounded men telling their comrades to get out while they give them time to escape with their lives. Hollywood isn't real life. Real life is real life.
I think what makes me furious is that Hollywood claimed it was going to stop having homophobic depictions of gay men and have gay representations and what we got is feminist karens with money. I don't want to watch movies that are sexist and judgemental. I remember laughing when childhood Cruella said" I am woman, hear me roar" lol . I don't think tv shows like BBC's Merlin could even be produced anymore by a large studio since they don't have enough "poc characters" which is absurd because medieval towns in Europe weren't downtown la but I digress. Any time they produce a good tv shows anymore they cancel it or run it into the ground with terrible writing so why would I pay for a streaming service. I think Hollywood is dead and so are most western studios. Beyond indy film studios in europe I doubt any of these movie houses will survive. Movie theaters will also likely go the way of dance halls.
I didn’t hear anything said in this video because for some reason the words butchers apron, meatloaf, shampoo and toothpaste just kept repeating in my mind.
Tinseltown thought they couldn't fail. Time will prove them wrong.
These days i only watch older hollywood movies, and korean tv or movies, i'm done with modern hollywood and i don't think i will ever come back.
And unless they do clean out the trash and leave only quality in place of control
I have 0 issue with diversifying cast. Just write them well and unselfishly. Unfortunately not the case these days.
New updatings are available.
Super hero fatigue is a myth. We didn’t get tired of Marvel movies, they just started to really suck after Endgame. The writing became shit, end of story.
Hollywood: spends $250mil on movies and shows that no one asked for, for representation purposes.
Also Hollywood: has documented proof that Top Gun Maverick literally saved the movie industry by being the perfect blend of nostalgia and newness and being what fans want.
Also also Hollywood: keeps spending their money on representation and propaganda.
It honestly makes zero sense financially.
Err, this is a Sony movies and Disney might sue them over how they are ruining the characters they are effectively renting from Marvel.
Madame web could’ve been saved IF they had a scene of all dem naked in the lake splashing water at each other
Can anyone remember the last straight, white, male led film that came out?
I genuinely can't!! 😮
14:42 *Just the fact she won this award show how low the bar is these days...*
Another great vid from Disparu
Love your takes, keep them coming.
I’m sure Disney would have advised Sony to not make Madame Web.
You know why Shows like Xena and Hercules were so good ... yeah ... whatever you are thinking that is what it was
The issue isn't with the "girl boss" per se. The issue is with the *OVERUSE* of the girl boss. The same with political messaging. Both are fine when used sometimes.
The problem that Hollywood created is that they relied on the girl boss and the political messaging. They were so focused on using both wherever they could that the writing suffered.
There have always been girl bosses and political messaging in entertainment. It wasn't absolutely everywhere though, they were used sporadically. Whether there was a girl boss or political messaging or not the writing was always the most important.
The problem with Disney is that their core audience that they have been pandering to for the last 30 years has been women and girls. They've taken the whole princess thing, and they've been running with it and making big Bank off of it since the 90s. What they were attempting to do with the MCU is to turn comic book characters from the Marvel Universe into the next generation of Disney princesses. They fail to realize that more than 60% of comic book readers are men. Those are the majority is there a ticket sales. So if men aren't going to watch the M-she-U, then they are destined to fail. Hopefully they've learned their lesson they have learned their lesson and will not repeat it.
I don't know what others do but i boykott everything that's coming from Disney...everything!!!
"Girlboss", women never pay for these movies, Guys refuse to pay to watch that crap.
How easy for Natalie Portman, with more money than she’ll ever know what to do with, to shrug off the collapse of her industry’s product. to quote many films, “What an asshole.”
the sad thing is a strong girl boss character can work theyre just too lazy to write a good one
The Flopbuster Era is now....
The irony is that many of the films from when I was growing up DID have actual kick ass females. I mean Ripley? Absolutely bloody hardcore alpha female, who we all LOVED cos she didn’t need to beg for our affection and because even though so was so tough she was still in danger. And this is not the only example at all… in fact strong women were always there - they just had no interest in being men for the most part. The female leads these days are away more pathetic and way less believable or likeable. I don’t see how this is even ‘progress’.
Hollywood is slowly devolving into Spanish cinema. Spanish cinema has long since become a platform for political and ideological commentary and for failed actors to leech off state grants, with movies that can't even earn 1/100th of what they cost to produce. Only one in a 1000th is successful enough, but most are only screened in local cinemas for a few days and with less than 1000 viewers.
It didn't use to be that way. Spanish movies used to be good and Spanish cinema used to forge great international actors and directors, but it slowly declined as politics, morality, and ideology seeped in, just way faster than in Hollywood, and then the vast majority of movies became just that, a way to bash on society or an opposing point of view, and people simply stopped watching them.
Hollywood needs to break out of that downward woke spiral if it doesn't want to end like that.
This why John Wick can open up a shit movie as long as they keep the story the same.. and still beat a Disney movie
Who is the "we are Union through and through..." guy? I don't recognize him. Is he an actor? If so, what was he in?
I don’t blame the actors for bad Star Wars shows. I blame the writers and producers.
That's a tactical retreat 😂😂
We had Alien, Buffy, Xena. The girl powa was novel, Buffy was comedic and she has supernatural strength, Xena was also a comedy and Ripley used weapons and smarts but not to defeat men. And "girl powa" was not so bad as it wasn't really an issue as it wasn't "Girl boss" so much, it wasn't women being dominant over men or "boss" so much, it wasn't women replacing men, it was just about women having a shot in the spotlight doing action stuff. And let's face it, Lucy Lawless who was fighting men as Xena was more fitting for the role than some of the waif's they cast now who are meant to overpower men. It seems that they are no longer content to go slowly and win hearts and minds, they have moved with the gender, race and trans and other issue into almost an attempt to offend and indeed many women, people of colour and trangendered folk also thing a lot of this woke stuff has gone too far.
I just watched the marvels. The vfx on it were great. The movie itself was more of a mockery of a superhero movie. It tried to be a comedy but it wasn't funny. Towards the end I was fast forwarding it to get it over with. That's the first movie I've done that on in a long time. At least we will always have MCU phase 1-3.
This whole thing is really well done IMO. It's cogent and sort of linear even as it's kind of a stream of human consciousness.
The Musk approach is the only way forward for these studios. The advantage they have is that there's a massive amount on untapped talent that was shoved aside, and maybe they'd be willing to return to resume doing what they used to do well? The alternative is to decline, surrendering the market to studios able to put out quality products at a far lower cost. That's doable, although not without the industry as a whole seeing a period of contraction (e.g. cinemas closing).
This is why Disney is going to be bought out.
The problem will always be that the money is the sole driving factor behind movies. Art takes the backseat and is outweighed by the financial outcome. This feels like a McDonald's more then an art business. Artist have to create a genuine and heartfelt product and hopefully the studios can pick the ones that will draw audiences. You can't make art on the basis of what people want... The people are not creators, they are consumers, ready to absorb some new and never seen vision from a great writer. If the product is good, the money will follow. If money drives creation by trying to please everybody (This is where McDonald's comes in) they will produce shit and draw flies. Artists have to be in the driver's seat otherwise your product is doomed to fail. You can't predict what audiences will like so you have to give artists the task of looking inside themselves and propose something that feels real and will resonate with the public. They will be the judges of what they like. Remember the car that Homer Simpson designed..? Yeah that's what people want !!!!!!
Well people are not buying their garbage anymore. The only reason why they care is because they are losing so much money.
I can't stand when people make crap movies and then when people complain they start acting like these movies were for "women" and men just don't like them because of that.
That is so freaking insulting to me... because I'm a woman, and I agree that these movies are garbage. Why are they conflating bad movies with "movies for women"?
In another video you mentioned an article that said Amazon is making shows for men, like Reacher. But I freaking LOVE Reacher. It's a fantastic show with great characters.
