      Especially suck less.

      If they sucked less, they’d have broader appeal, meaning more consumers so could potentially, maybe, not be so overpriced vs their value.

      Oh, who am I kidding? Hollywood has been a bunch of arrogant asshats forever.

        Studio heads with no film background make decisions based on spreadsheets. Those people shouldn’t be in the industry… yet they remain.

      Remember when Netflix first started raising prices claiming it was all going to go toward new content that people would be excited for? That was years ago now and we’ve seen additional increases, along with ads, and blocking account sharing and their content still sucks for the most part.

      One or the other. Quality tends to cost more money. Fast food is cheaper than fine dining, but you can tell the difference in quality.

      Problem is the Studios charge a lot for crap.

        Fast food used to cost less than fine dining. I discovered last week that my local Italian place is now cheaper than a meal for four at McDonald’s.
