Over two billion dollars in damage/Archive from a nigger trying to pass a counterfeit 20 dollar bill alone, and it was from 20-23.
Their parents watched all the manufacturing go overseas and told them, pretty much correctly, that it was knowledge work or nothing in this country now.
Anyone who insists that robots and automation will replace blue collar work have clearly never either been around robots and automation OR blue collar production work.
I've long hoped for this so that U.S. movies would no longer be made first and foremost for Chinese audiences and with their censorship in mind, as if America is bound by their laws!A rare win for the Chinese people
The way I see it, China has been keeping gay ass Disney movies from going full fag mode and crashing even harder. When it comes to entertainment that I never watch anyway I'm full accelerationist.
Using a shovel isn't bad either.
There is no MAGA without Trump. "Make America Great Again" is the Trumpiest slogan. MAGA doesn't even have a coherent set of policies and issues. It's whatever deal Trump thinks he can work out that will make America great.
That's actually a terrible example. Terminator 2 cost 100 million in 1991 or around 350 million today. At the time it was an incredibly expensive film to produce and market.
Yeah the problem isn't necessarily the size of the budgets, anytime a product is working the investors will want to increase the budgets so they can increase the gross profits at the end, it's similar to scaling up in other businesses except on the basis of one project at a time. The thing is the money needs to go "on the screen" as they say and into effective marketing. These days, the image on the screen is fucking awful (movies have ugly casts, bad lighting, boring shots, and mostly CG frames now - hideous) and the marketing is mostly seeing articles about the star or director or producer of the film making anti-white comments. So I have to conclude most of these budgets are being embezzled.
I don't think so. I think Hollywood in its original form is effectively dead. A bunch of major studios are moving elsewhere out of California. You have Netflix becoming a direct and big competitor. You have big budgets looking at filming in Texas. The movie stars power has waned so much from public view. We basically have no new celebrities. We have Jenna Ortega, Tom Holland, and Zendaya. Can you name any others though that aren't one and done new movie names? Those are the biggest new names I've known. It's all old movie stars being advertised. John Boyega has a dead career. Daisy Ridley has a dead career. The newest and most successful young actor in the past 10 years I can think of is Adam Driver and that's....a thing I guess.
I know it cost similar, it’s success was used to justify the budget of a billion flops because a lot of producers are quality blind.
It is what the non-autismal call "a joke"
Relevant example, when I worked in injection molding we had a machine pumping out zip ties. Plastic parts come out of the machine still attached to the "runner" and need to be broken off - think about the sheet of model car/plane parts that you break individual pieces off as you build.
Adam Driver, Ryan Gosling, and Jason Momoa are all in their early 40s, not really ancient. Chalamet certainly has legions of fans. You yourself listed like three more. I don't think celebrity culture is going anywhere, it's wired into our species and how we relate to the tribe.
Timotheé Chalamet. He's pretty good too.
Infinite gibs crashed the stock market.
