I work remotely for Warner Bros and even in the state I live in, with its lower cost of living, I need to stretch the wage I make. And now because of idiot actors and untalented writers complaining that their working conditions are "too hard" or that they "don't make enough money", projects are being cancelled and us lowly production staffers are the first thing to get axed. We're getting bitter. I LOVE film and animation, which is why I got into this industry, but man it's full of BS right now.

    The virtue signaling of celebrities back during the 2016 Presidential season was my last straw.

And lo and behold, since then they only got worse, movies got worse, TV got worse. As long as they continue their trend of shallow virtue signaling, I will continue to walk away with my middle finger raised high.

    It's sad what they've done in entertainment. Not just with that subject, but that's what we're talking about. In a not too different alternative universe, a show or movie could be based on a gay man and be generally accepted. "Hollywood" has spent so much time shoving messages down people's throats, a resentment has been built. Eyes roll and you get the "oh, they *_made_* him gay". Without all the throat shoving, I feel like a character could just _be_ gay and be accepted by (at least more of) culture/society. Obviously there are people that will never accept, but I'm not talking about them.

And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it. A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.”

    It's amazing how they make these movies where the target audience is less than 10% of the population, then act surprised that no one goes to see it. I'm an IT Project Manager and an expert in CRM (Customer Resource Management) which is just a fancy way of saying building computer systems that calculate demographics for sales and marketing campaigns. Good examples are Salesforce, Meta and Google, which use these analytics and algorithms to target advertising to people. It's as if these modern studios simply ignore all that completely and just make a product that represents whatever little bandwagon they've attached themselves to, thinking in their narcissistic infantile brains that maybe people are stupid and will watch their movie and be instantly brainwashed into believing their nonsense. It's literally the opposite of how most companies function.

    In life, you need 2 out of 3 things to succeed with people. In jobs, in public, in general. 1) Be on time and be consistent in your work and life. 2) Be incredible at your work and in your purpose, which is always high-quality. 3) Be very well liked and loved by the public and especially the people in your life. You don't need all three, but you need 2 out of three to succeed. If you manage somehow you get all three, you may indeed manage to be "great." But if you can't even manage 1, let alone 2, no one will give a shit about you. Hollywood has failed on *ALL THREE* for the last decade or more. They could produce raw gold and distribute it to the masses, and no one would really care at this point. Hollywood needs to be fired.
