Don’t worry everyone we have over 100 years of films, tv shows, books, video games and comics to keep us entertained. I’ll think we’ll be fine.

[@centariprime9959]

Look at all the films from the 30's, 40's 50's and on until about 2015. Classic movies and shows. Amazing writing.

[@brianmurphy6480]

Yep. Let the Beast starve to death eating itself; normal people will do just fine. Hell, there are books written in the past 20 years I haven't even LOOKED at yet; that alone is enough to keep me going to my deathbed, and that's without re-reading all the ones I already own and love.

I have wall to wall movies here, I'll be fine for a long time to come. I still have movies left to watch, that I don't even remember buying. I'm good on the book front too, plenty of Alien and Predator sci-fi's I really should have read by now. ✌

[@GemGames3]

"It's no longer 1937! That cartoon was made 85 years ago!" Yes and it'll still be remembered long after you're gone, that's why it's remembered.

[@rubix4195]

That "cartoon" was the first cell animation features in motion picture history and it was during the Great Depression in the US and after the First World War. Walt almost never made the animation because of the expense and his family tried to talk him out of it, he took out a second mortgage to get it made and the press were all calling it "Disney's Folly". It's an actual piece of art like the Mona Lisa is to painters - the techniques learnt in that process was used by animators for the next decade. For some young actress to demonise it and denigrate it is like comparing why didn't Leonardo Da Vinci find a subject that would please modern audiences forgetting what the Italian Renaissance was about and the art that came after it. I am going to hazard a guess that she failed history at school...

[@paraguaymike5159]

Didn't Walt say not to touch that one? That he didn't want a sequel or anything? Or am I thinking of a different movie?

I wanted to put OG Disney movies like Snow White and The Little Mermaid to the test and made my 4 year old niece watch it. She was mesmerized with a different roller coaster of emotions; afraid of the woods when Snow White ran, sighed and smiled when she saw the prince with SW, and had LSS with the songs. She didn’t feel bad because there aren’t other ethnic groups (we’re Asian), no gender role explanations, no strong Mary sue character. Just pure fun and good vibes.

[@ninatouchdown2500]

The old Snow White and The Little Mermaid films are also true to their source material and not trying to shove kind of woke message down your throat. Glad your niece enjoyed them.

[@Dragonking1984]

What she experienced was the magic that Disney once had. A magic that many can recall from their own childhood. A magic i believe that died with Walt Disney. The closest we can come to experiencing that again are re-watching the old classic cartoons & movies.

DISNEY and their so-called “re-makes”: I'm so tired of hearing about this. To this entire generation of filmmakers: Creativity is about writing your stories and creating legendary characters. It is NOT about hijacking other people's work, changing it beyond recognition, and calling it your own. It is NOT about trying to force people to accept your "new and modern take." That is laziness; it is ineptitude. It is plagiarism! A LACK of creativity and integrity leads you to accept credit for a legacy you had nothing to do with and which you now seek to destroy. That is why your box office takes are suffering. You are clearly more concerned about indoctrinating the public than telling a good story. You will be your own downfall. How does putting down one gender promote equality? Surely, it rather promotes inequality. Thank you for pointing out the misalignment between what you say and what you do!

"Woke" refers to a form of hard-left identity politics practiced today whose roots trace back to the Frankfurt School of Cultural Marxist critique originally popularized in the United States through hateful radical polemics such as the book "The Authoritarian Personality" in the post-WW2 era of Western Civilization politics. The tenants of wokeness are founded in a series of diabolical bigotries and the willingness of their adherents to do anything (illegal,immoral, or illicit acts included) necessary to attain the cultural/social/corporate/political power necessary to promote the dominance of those bigotries over the lives of everyone else. Wokeness is explicitly, thoroughly anti-White, anti-male/masculinity, stridently misandrist and feminist, and relentless in it's attempts to invert Christian moral tenants in favor of the widespread promotion of sexual degeneracy and pathology (ie, homosexuality and transgender genital mutilation).

No it won't unfortunately. Actual Indies cannot get financing because the studio and tech behemoths (Apple, Amazon, Google) have total dominance of theaters, streaming platforms, and thus, of funding. No one wants to fund a film that will only be on Tubi and lesser platforms. To get a film made a filmmaker has to either be inside their system already, or just be in very wealthy circles (which is why so few films reflect regular people). I was lucky when I made my first feature streaming was still a Wild West and streamers were hungry for Indies. That film did quite well and helped finance my second. The second one was better reviewed (by both audiences and critics) but was impossible to sell to streamers. Got it on a few platforms (gave it to them for free) and they buried it under their originals to the point you'd have to scroll for an hour to find it. Suffice to say it bombed. Funny enough, both films now make more off KZbin than any of the other platforms. Spent the past two years trying to get the next one made. It's been optioned by a producer who did Lethal Weapon and True Romance, yet he's been out of the studio system for years now and can't get funding. The script has similar themes as Sound of Freedom so maybe that will help spark some interest. Who knows. Lastly, so this isn't all about my struggles: A producer I know in Oklahoma has been trying to develop a few films for the past two years. Unless it's a faith-based film it ain't getting made. Basically, filmmakers have to appease the woke mob, the god-mob, or the corporate mafia. There's no money in honest independent storytelling anymore.

[@geophrian]

@@elLooto I'm sure that is where entertainment is going, no argument here. I've been telling my colleagues that for a while now. But, here's what we're all losing when that happens: Best review I ever got wasn't from a critic but from a Marine Vet who had a blog. He wrote a long beautiful article meandering from his experience with the film to experience in war to thoughts of his brothers he served with and ended it telling his readers to watch it saying, "Maybe you watch it and it prompts you to make the call that could save a life." Had another vet tell me after a screening he was at he went outside, chain-smoked a few cigs, and tried to understand what he was feeling until it hit him: "I felt like I wasn't alone. Like if some dumbass filmmaker could tell my story there are others out there telling him the same story." Having AI regurgitate our favorite action movies back to us with different character mixes isn't going to do that. It's not going to connect us or illuminate us. And that's the problem, too many confuse entertainment with art. Entertainment is getting what you want in a fun way. Art is getting what you didn't know you wanted in a new way. Yeah, a lot of it sucks but that's because art is hard. Entertainment is easy (despite how much our mainstream sucks at it). I love Nerdrotic, Drinker, and the whole crew of critics ripping on my industry but my frustration is that the conversation focuses so much on the problem (I've been hating Disney for decades now) and rarely touches on what makes movies powerful (Drinker does get into it some times which I appreciate). As Fran Lebowitz once said, "Great art is made by great audiences. Great audiences create great artists, by giving people the freedom to take chances." I worry that our audiences only want entertainment - to relive their childhood joys through comics, toys and stories - and because of that we have an adolescent society unable to grapple with adult issues. AI will give audiences what they want but will it give them what they need? Sorry for the long rant. I'm pretty passionate about this stuff. :) But, I didn't get into this to make popcorn entertainment for chumps. I got into this to make art for thinkers and doers. To make stuff that challenges me as much as it does my audience. It's partly why I'm a nobody because that stuff doesn't sell out AMCs but the letters I get from my audience thanking me for making them feel seen, for helping them understand a loved one going through hardship, or just helping them see others in anew light, are what I love doing. To me, that is the purpose of making art.

For my household alone we have been watching older 70's/80's/90's sitcoms, binging the hell out of them, and mostly from FREE streaming services like Crackle and Tubi. The same goes for older drama and sci-fi shows. Strictly because the writing and acting was better.

[@marcusmiller5443]

Reason Hollywood will continue to fade into non-existence: The greedy NEVER gives up their gold. They issue burn notices to everyone, and then point a finger at their own family, at the end of it all, before they take responsibility, or 'be fair'. Greed is an all-consuming monster, buddy.

[@ChrisAlbertH47]

Fortunately for movie lovers, Hollywood is not the only source of entertainment if you're willing to look elsewhere in the world. Lots of talent and fresh ideas out there.

[@Outlaw7263]

Watch Italian Spiderman, or Japanese Spiderman. Either is good.

[@rosesacks7430]

​@Outlaw7263 where would you find that entertainment?

[@ronaldbobeck1026]

TUBI has every Soviet Army Movie made. A real Gem "The Pilot " based on a Soviet Air Force flyer shot down by the Germans , a true Survival story of courage .

[@agitadora60]

Old geezer here, I just recently dusted off my VCR and rewatch Network, wow, what a prophetic movie! What really impressed me was just how good the writing, acting, directing, etc was. On a funny side note, I just got banned from a group because I dared to call Strange New Worlds, crap TV. People appear to just be accepting mediocre entertainment as the norm. Well I grew up surrounded by excellent entertainment and I refuse to put on blinders. So while I support workers right to strike, frankly they can keep walking around in circles all they want, I don't miss them. Thank God I've got my personal stash of golden oldies.

[@JM-vp8zc]

Classic film! And yep, the physical media libraries are paying dividends.

[@michaelhill8269]

Old geezer here too, my friend! I get banned from practically everything. Joined twitter in April, booted out last week Not my fault everything is shit.

[@michaelsegriff3362]

Have you watched The Hospital? Also by Paddy Chayefsky.

[@underthepale]

As I've been saying for *years,* "Network is now a documentary. They Live is now a documentary. Escape from New York will soon be a documentary."

[@horoboro8665]

There is a huge amount of incredible movies from Europe and Japan to substitute all the shit we're missing out on from Hollywood . Saw Ran yesterday for the third time and they don't make them like that in Hollywood.

[@SexyTCAPdecoy4Hansen]

Where can we watch

[@sweetgirl1963]

Korean mini series

[@breasonable4343]

"hollywood" makes great films, you should check them out sometime. ya know instead of whining, and not making an effort.

[@thomassandoval8025]

I like foreign films since they usually have less woke nonsense choking out a good story.

[@horoboro8665]

Yeah very true, my favourite movies are either old school Hollywood movies or foreign movies Mostly Japanese and European, but Australian cinema has some great movies too imo @@thomassandoval8025

[@rubenducheny2788]

I don't understand how some of these ceos keep their jobs? Why aren't they thrown out of the corporate world? Is there no financial accountability? Where are the stockholders and investers? Are they asleep on the wheel?😮

[@MSgt5J071]

Black Rock, Vanguard and State Street, three of the largest investment companies in the world, are pushing the DEI agenda and they give billions of dollars to Hollywood. They're Hell-bent on forcing their Woke agenda on the American people.

[@Lelldorin84]

"Pride goeth before destruction" Remember how all the actors and writers spent the last decade lecturing us about how we should live our lives? Die Hollywood, die.

Exactly. Won’t even piss on its grave.

Let the strike continue and let Hollywood crumble. I'll be sitting in a comfortable recliner while watching anime, reading manga, and laughing along with Gary.

[@willdegra317]

I wish I could get into anime. I need a “my first anime” kit or something

[@jimmyv3170]

​@@willdegra317watch all the mainstream anime from the 80's and 90's to start out. All that stuff is guaranteed good while the modern anime is hit or miss and very cliche in alot of ways.

[@tntkit]

​​@@willdegra317watch any anime that came out at ur local theatre or being really famous Most notable ones r Shinkai Makoto's Kimi No Nawa and Tenki No Ko (and his other works), Ghibli's Tonari No Tottoro and Sen To Chihiro No Kamikakushi (and their other works)

[@asain3586]

​​@@willdegra317 Just try anything that suits your taste. Advantages of anime are many different genres, you can get slice of life stories or deep as mariana trench stories out here. Try short anime with 10 episodes like Cyberpunk.

From all chaos that rose up throughout human history, this one I'm actually grateful to be alive to witness it.

It’s kinda one of the only things we can say that about in our current situation-our consolation prize, so to speak.

[@UltimateCerberus]

That description doesn't fit me. I'm always more keen to see a huge and evil Goliath meeting his spectacular and fiery demise than to see something nice rising up against all odds.

Pathetic

@@UltimateCerberusthe huge and evil Goliath OWNS Hollywood and can take the hit 😂

[@UltimateCerberus]

​@@CoercedJab Your precious Hollywood is burning, what your Goliath owns will only serve to make a bigger noise when it finally falls. I'll be here watching both your god and gospel die.

[@LiogCeartas]

If it weren’t for multiple cable channels and streaming services platforms, many writers would be out of work. Cable channels provide extra time slots for shows that basic tv could not. And then came streaming services that allowed freedom from timeslots, and therefore opening the doors for endless content opportunities for writers.

[@taekhuh8543]

This is quite satisfying to see. I'm sick of being a bad person for not being a fan of woke movies and shows.

[@AngryLittleAmericansCartoons]

I had watched Forrest Gump a few months ago and im still blown away at how good of movie that was. The acting, the story being told, I was captivated at how.we went from something as moving as that film to what we're getting now

[@michaelsegriff3362]

Fortunately, we have Blue Beetle and The Marvels to look forward to.

[@Kingeptacon]

When Forrest Gump came out I had the option of seeing that or Blown Away with Jeff Bridges. I chose to see Blown Away. Oops. On the flip side back in 1998 I went to see Powder but it was sold out so I had to see another movie that I’d never heard of called Good Will Hunting. Needless to say I was blown away.

[@martintimmer8574]

Now Tom Hanks no longer sees himself playing a retard,they had to hire a real one...

[@masterJZX]

Forrest Gump is not of the worst movies ever made.

[@lojanta]

I recently watched Shawshank Redemption with my dad :') such a good movie!

[@TVsBen]

Gary consistently gets it right, and this video only extends the win streak. The strikes will continue until intelligence improves.

[@mudageki]

Wisdom, not intelligence. While that may seem a pedantic nitpick, it's important to recognize that a lot of very smart people destroy things either out of arrogance or willfulness.

[@freakr84]

I haven't had a TV at home for 10 years, I haven't been to a cinema in 20 years, I don't stream hence I don't have any subscription to services like Netflix and co. I don't even pirate movies online anymore. They don't get a single cent from me. The movie industry has been in decline for decades

[@samcar06c]

I remember the 2007 strike and it felt like it went on FOREVER. I can't believe this one has been going longer, I don't know that I've really felt the loss in the way I did back in 2007.

[@anthonyzullo]

I think in 2007 Netflix wasn't even streaming yet, they were a DVD service I think. So no, we did NOT have many choices even in 2007, compared to today.

[@123mightywarrior]

If this strike will outlive the 1988 writers' strike - 153 days, which is the longest strike in WGA history - then I am going to be very impressed.

[@Songbirdstress]

They seem very out of touch, so it might happen.

[@elLooto]

Just as no banker starves during a recession, no Union boss starves during a strike.

[@underthepale]

They pushed out Oppenheimer way early, so it's possible that it could last and H'wood knows it. Certainly, they seem to be scared it might.

[@fortyfour1654]

1+5+3= 9 It's all about the numerology and that one in particular.

Heck, your stuff is better written and entertaining than anything Hollywood has given us.

I kinda want Hollywood to fail. Maybe thanks to it, we’ll get another 80s B movie golden Era. I want to see Tremors levels of entertainment on the big screen once more.

Most of the movies and shows I watch are from years gone by so I don’t feel like we’re losing out on anything whatsoever.

[@breasonable4343]

yeah, never try to engage right? just go back to the "good old days"

[@samblack5313]

@breasonable4343 Hard to engage with hysterical victim complex race/gender grifters who fundamentally hate you, bud. We tried. Always leads me back to the scene from Good Will Hunting. “…Then I realised something, slept like a baby and haven’t thought of you since… you’re just a kid, if I asked you about art, you would tell me about all the great works, but you have no idea what it smells like in the Sistine chapel”. In 30 years, you’re going to start doing some thinking for yourself, and you are going to realise just how much of a screaming child you are at present, and how much damage you’ve done to the society that allows you to openly speak hatred towards it. Head over to Nigeria and lecture them on LBGT acceptance. They will kill you in the street. Once you degrade this society to the point other countries can invade it, they will, and they will not tolerate your ideals once they have. The irony is, the people you hate, are the ones watching the wall while you throw rocks at the back of their head from the safety they provide.

[@jeffduprez3181]

First vid of yours I’ve ever watched. You speak the truth! You’re analysis almost brought a tear to my eye, I honestly gave up on tv shows and movies after the final game of thrones episode ended. It opened my eyes to the blatant disregard for the fans and that was my ticket out of all the Hollywood garbage.
