I think they could easily find a balance. Doesn’t need to be zero original content. Make about a dozen (not 5 dozen) things a year like House of Cards, Stranger Things, Beast of No Nation, All Quiet on the Western Front, and maybe two silly action comedies like Red Notice.

Wow so you want HBO outlawed for everyone just because you don’t like it?

There was actually a thread in r/Movies yesterday wondering if nudity was “back” in Hollywood because there’s been a string of it this year from A-listers. Jennifer Lawrence, Florence Pugh, Cillian Murphy, ScarJo is apparently full frontal for a split second in the PG-13 Asteroid City (??)

But will it be authentic nudity or a series of elaborate prosthetics?

Netflix needs to stop throwing hundreds of Mil at “auteurs” to run wild on middling movies

Really doubtful. Can we say that any of the Purge movies is really “woke” in the way that sets off conservatives? They started out briefly like a critique of ultra-Libertarianism but morphed more into just glorifying the most heavily armed ubermensch.

I mean, they do have private proving grounds. Those are an earlier step in testing. Like the difference between testing a new drug on white mice and then the human trials phase. These cars progressed to the “human trials” phase.

Yeah I’m not sure “vandalism” is the right word. At worst this is whatever you’d call it if there was a neighbor everyone hated so you snuck onto their property at night and rearranged his garden gnomes to look like they were having sex with each other. No damage, but you’ve breached a property and touched stuff…

We could tell

Much of that is reasonable good info. I doubt anyone will ever ask to get paid for interviewing or taking a class. Most of us don’t.

The SAG scale rate is a minimum of $1,000 per day. Or about the amount that a medical doctor makes.

I mean it got done covering Succession when the show ended 2 months ago. It covers all the Disney+ franchise shows (YMMV on likeability, but they aren’t reality TV). Etc and so forth.

However this law is used, it won’t be with assuming the police can leverage zero day exploits on demand dumbass.

I don’t even think *with* a warrant that US police can live-surveil your phone camera remotely.

There’s a micron-thin line of intersection here between empowerment and just titillating the male gaze that I’m not qualified to analyze.

The cocaine was found inside the cubbies that WH tourists use to store their bags dumbass.

I’m literally a professional IT engineer lmao

Setting aside completely the political and social concerns, how is this even going to be technologically achieved? The police can’t “activate” my phone camera remotely regardless of permission.

The 2016 Sausage Party movie had a budget of $19M and made $141M at the box office for an eye-popping 7.5x budget multiplier.
