It has nothing to do with ego and everything to do with pushing their own platform instead of a competitor's. You're right, it's a streaming service, and with it comes the calculation that there's nothing to gain from giving Netflix free advertising for the seasons that are still on their platform. The solution is

that’s a really cruddy thing to do to an audience and to creators.

I get it, but also I’m not about to get in the business of giving every studio a monthly fee for the one or two properties I care about.

Apart from any payments to Marvel for the rights to use the characters (which they’d have to pay for any established properties) how exactly is creating a show on related IP “supporting the competition”? Different shows are exactly that - different shows - and there’s no guarantee that Daredevil fans would subscribe

That’s completely ridiculous. I think it’s clear that Netflix only cancelled Daredevil due to some type of corporate pressure from Marvel/Disney. While Iron Fist was more questionable, Daredevil was very popular and there was no way Netflix would cancel it on its own to somehow avoid promoting Disney’s streaming

This all sort of feels like a deliberate poison pill, being intentionally deployed by Netflix because they’re pissed that Disney chose to start up a streaming service. Not saying they aren’t in their right to do it, but the timing of the cancellations and the timing of the Disney streaming launch don’t feel

Netflix is worth $120B, and Disney is approx $170B. Not quite that much of a discrepancy.

Netflix has no incentive to promote Disney +

“Ready Player One” looks terrible in the same vein as “Blade Runner 2049". I’m not interested in another whitewashed future dystopia. RPO is more of the same sh!t about how only cisgender White males can own fandom, and I hope it flops hard.

Hollywood loves successful movies.. but they love successful movies that fit within a mold they are comfortable with. When things outside of that mold happen, they freak out. And women as actual humans (not as extensions of Men), and Black people as again, adults, not needing to be rescued by some outsider or as a sex

I was wondering the extent to which Henderson’s piece was a baiting article, where he could plausibly deny the racial aspect, and I think Monique is spot on in how she breaks it down. But he knows there is a big time racial aspect and he’s deliberately being oblivious to it for the sake of clickbaiting controversy.

Scott Mendelson, is a click seeking whore. He trolls pop culture and every few weeks folks take the bait.

You do know that these orgs are only “Greek” in name only. Meaning their names were borrowed from the Greek language that their founding members had to study while enrolled in college. Literally nothing else about the NPHC is Greek.

I now must concur. I laughed at the yoga lady. I wanted to light everything on fire when I watch this video.

When Michael told me he wanted to write that..and use this title..I had to remind him about his white lady yoga post...lol...But no...this is even whiter than that.

“...St. Louis, Missouri’s caucasian concertgoers are miffed that they won’t be able to writhe arrhythmically to wailing guitar licks...” ROTFLMAOOO
