@craigFF @Nerdrotics Then Disney should not have made this into a movie that needed to clear in their own words 600 million to break even. Perhaps after S01 or S02 this could have worked after S03 and Boba Fett it was always going to die in ignominy because those shows are hated dumpster fires.

@BizSuperstar @3xchair Exactly. It reverses cause and effect, which is propaganda (a pseudo-religious programming of the audience) rather than tapping into a shared experience that already existed.

@craigFF @3xchair “In a movie theater, everybody is tuned in to the story being told to them from the screen, and for one moment, we’re in communion, and we are in agreement and we are a community." Sounds a bit Stalinist, no?

@3xchair @kevin_smith45 Oddly, also similar to the tactics used by resistance group "OTPOR!" against Slobodan Milosevic in Yugoslavia in the '90s (which I've been researching for work). Non-violent struggle through humor against an out of touch entrenched regime.

@elonmusk This baffles me because I thought we already knew that.

@ZubyMusic I got lots of free upgrades. If you requested non smoking they had to provide it. If you checked in late that could mean a free upgrade.

I remember when people used to smoke on planes. Seems like a terrible idea in hindsight.

California bill AB 2319 would add postproduction tax incentives separate from production incentives to support the industry here. I just wrote a @MPEG700 letter: Keep Post Alive! Write one here: actionnetwork.org/letters/keep-p…

A great point and also true of academics. The puzzle in entertainment is also why the people who just want to make money seem to have given up on supporting that. If you had told me 10 years ago that Hollywood would leave money on the table for ideology, I never would have believed you.

@cliftonaduncan Exactly. The pathway into entertainment is very different now. It’s much more about going along with the system than bucking it.
