I'm accustomed to bullshit and I only seem to be getting more of it.When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.
You really want to call me privileged you're in for a bit of a laugh. Sure I'm not on the bottom but I'm certainly not at the top either.
No it's the implicit.Yep, wanting someone other than a 40 year old white dude to review your movie is such disrespect. Apologies, she didn't mean to seem like she was excluding them. Cant we have both?
You're the one trying to stop this movies from being made. You're the one being disrespectful
"Yeh no-one wants to hear your opinion on this because you have balls"
Yeh I get my insight into romance films won't be worth much to some but I also can come up with potentially interesting positions on films or thoughts on them. Just because a woman is reviewing the film doesn't suddenly mean said woman will actually say anything different to what a male critic would say. They might or might pick up on different things but being a woman wouldn't inherently mean some radically different criticisms. I mean the remake of Carrie had a female director and ended up as a basically shot for shot remake of the original.
Also people aren't trying to stop the movies being made. They're saying know your demographics and stop complaining that the film you pushed out as "Hey men are Trash and only good as punchlines" or whatever suddenly failed because men didn't go to see it.
The Non reboot Charlies Angels did well enough with basically just men alone and I'd guess Mamma Mia did well with mostly women. Hell Sword and Sandals films primary demographic was middle aged women.
Ok Message Mongering because the artist cares more about their message than the enjoyment and entertainment value of the entertainment they've worked on.Artist dont make 'woke' thing. They just make. We apply the woke label later when we want to make it political
Edit: This is different from a studio note saying 'we need this in our movie." Because I don't agree with that, whether its conservative, progressive or libertarian. This includes all those studio notes from the 1930s to today who say "Only white males can make this movie work. Females cant do that. Black people need to die first. etc." Studio fucking with artistic visions is (usually) bad
It can go both ways too.
Corporate meddling has a different kind of awful taste. It tastes like Rise of Skywalker and much of the new Trilogy series trying to make marketable toys rather than letting it happen. IT's the difference between lots of cute looking droids and things made and Baby Yoda who they had to rush to make toys for after Studios tried to get them to fully CGI him and not use a puppet (which the puppet turned out to help push the cute factor)I can't help but notice that the anti-woke argument almost never attacks corporate for its malfeasance. At best, they give some lip service to, "letting the artist make what they want," but when corporate puts their dick in things, it's always the talent who get the blame from the armchair experts and self-proclaimed "core audience."
another example it was corporate who likely cut out "Captain Marvel breaks civilian mans hand and steals his bike because she was offended he made slightly sexual remarks to her." from the full film
