Damn. Pretty much laid it all out right there.
Ive also heard some rumblings that since Hollywood is loath to make a black person the bad guy, or girl, that black actors are grumbling that they are missing out on some of the juiciest and most challenging roles.

I've found it hilarious for years watching Hollywood put out something because they think they are "revolutionizing" the entertainment industry when really they are putting out something the vast majority of people don't give a crap about. Not what the consumer wants, what we give you. Real sound business decisions (also corps) being made by some stupid boards.

Ya, the billions that the vast majority are spending on crap they don't want is really hurting the studios.

Well, I know Disney is laying people off, cutting projects like crazy, closing hotels and has lost millions in market valuation.

It sure is!

The top 10 grossing movies so far in 2023 (and it's only June) have raked in $2,403,586,805 dollars.
That's $2.4 BILLION dollars! And that's just domestic box office!
If you look at worldwide box office it's close to $6 BILLION bucks!

Hollywood is doing just fine.

Yes, but it all goes on to the same balance sheet at the end of the day. If everything is so amaze-balls why are they slashing jobs?

Because the streaming department is separate from other departments in the company.

Riiiight. Speaking of business 101, you do understand the difference between revenue (your box office) and profit, right? I bet all of those people getting laid off in Hollywood are now acutely aware of the difference.

Did Trump University, Trump Casinos, Trump Steaks, or Trump Vodka, bankrupt the entire Trump empire?

Especially when they just opened up the most populous (China) market in the whole World the last decade or so. Can you imagine what disastrous numbers that is hiding.
