Anonymous Coward User ID: 79677917 United States 08/05/2022 07:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is a bigger seismic shift in Hollywood priorities than you could imagine. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79677917 Every multi-million dollar production made by a major studio is released somewhere somehow. That garbage Dark Phoenix movie? Full wide release. Fantastic 4? Same. Look at all the garbage on any streaming service. If it gets produced to completion, it is released in some form. Literally. Every. Shitty. Movie. Is released in some form if they cost more than like a few million dollars, for the simple fact there are no magical "write-offs" the populace thinks Hollywood can just do. In general, people don't understand what write-offs are, but that's another post entirely. This is why I made this thread: this is an EXTREMELY rare thing for a studio to do with a COMPLETELY FINISHED FILM. It's literally never happened before. Even Clifford (a other underrated comedy IMO) was released like 4 years after it was finished because someone somewhere wants something back from their investment. The only unreleased stuff studios produce are pilots and "ashcan copies" - a term referring to productions whose sole purpose is to extend copyright. These are even released, as they legally have to to keep the copyright. See: bizarre interview with an elderly Warren Beatty in character as Dick Tracy that was aired a handful of times so he could keep copyright, and the wonky 1994 Roger Corman Fantastic Four film so the studio could retain copyright. And that was bootlegged eventually to audiences. So everyone, understand: this is a signal of a huge shift in priorities in Hollywood, to the point the new CEO is cancelling nearly half a billion dollars' worth of produced material to erase any potential wokeness from infecting the DC cinematic universe forever. This signals a real-market reaction to the general public's overall negative reaction to having leftist politics not only being inserted but mostly being the entire point of massive productions. They are hemorrhaging money and have been for years trying to force this direction on the public. So true business sense--the kind that makes you the new CEO of a major film studio--dictates that you'll get the sunken cost of your predecessor just to stop more woke shit from fucking up the $. This is why this is important: in the US, money talks. It's been spoken. Those dependent on public favor for their $ are going to start quietly dialing back the woke shit nobody likes (or at the very least are political positions held by people without actual disposable income). The market has spoken and this is one of the two movies (possibly 3, if Ezra Miller ends up killing somebody or something before/during reshoots) never publicly released. And the ONLY movie backed by a major movie studio to never be released. Think on that. the onania club got made in 2018 and still hasn't been released but thats for different reasons That movie was released in 2020. |
