@xv I feel the same. I already started thinking I’m going crazy, but yeah, the quality of content really feels a lot worse lately. Just look at the mess Star Trek is. I’m not even a big fan of ST in general, but still, it’s hard to ignore. Most of the writers need to be replaced. Blacklisting ftw!
@h7 I’m not sure about actors, but blacklisting writers and directors might actually help the company. The quality of entertainment content feels like it’s gone downhill over the past five or six years, and that seems pretty common across most media companies. Letting those writers and directors work only with competitors could end up helping the company in the long run. We need new people.
@h7 love when my 'fresh ideas' get through because they align with the existing ideas of the studio. blacklists have a storied history of welcoming new perspectives, thank you for the brilliant analysis. please consult a physician for end of life options.
Blacklisting thousands of privileged, out-of-touch actors, writers, and directors is good news for the industry. It gives opportunities to new talent and fresh ideas.
Nepo Baby is a fascist, so totally expected.
