I agree with you that I don't think it's going to radically change things.

I do think that when we talk about how the studios will react, we tend to just think of them as like

faceless corporate morons, right?

That's the perception of the people.

Most of the people that I know who work in the kind of like middle class of movie executive love when shit like this happens.

They cheer.

They're super excited.

The problem with their jobs is they bring stuff like this to their bosses all the time and their bosses tell them no.

And so it's like, it's more like, will this wake the bosses up?

Will this wake the sort of like the actual corporate overlords, the sort of like larger corporations that own these companies?

Right.

That employ people who like movies, who get into the movie business to make movies, and then to get them off of the IV drip of only trying to make four quadrant $250 million movies that could potentially make $2 billion but probably won't.

That, to me, that is the issue.

The issue is like the whole strategy can't be maximize every single movie.

If that's what you try to do, you're going to miss.

Like you're going to miss and it's going to be more costly than –

Finding 10 Curry Barkers and trying and being like, oh, we lost 10 million on this one instead of we lost $1 billion on the future of Star Wars because we misplayed our hand for 10 years.

Like $200,000, but yeah.

big studio level um consolidate yeah in the form of you know paramount and warner brothers that's totally right and the other thing that is starting to happen this year and one of the reasons why the box office is up is 11 is because not just because there's been new movies and exciting movies and movies that people like and also franchise movies that people still like and there will be this summer spider-man toy story like those movies are still guess what amanda's seeing tonight
