Except it’s misguided. If you want true equity, the system as it currently stands, is actually pretty representative of the population % break downs. But that isnt what we are talking about. We are talking about minority population %, wanting 50/50 in terms of representation. That is no equity, that IS an over correction. That would be like going to Japan as a white person, and demanding that 50% of the actors in their films, be white. Its not realistic to their population size. And is actually horrible to demand they feel bad, for being who they are. Yes, our system can be doing better. And I think more diversity, is always a good thing. I think diverse backgrounds, means art is more interesting and unique. But what I’m seeing coming out of this, isnt a true push for diversity. Its misguided anger, and a push for a power grab between identity classes. What this really comes down to is, the Marxist belief that we live in a power system, where everything is defined purely by power and not competency. Ie. The belief that Bo is only where he is, purely because of his skin color. That he has an inherent privilege. Rather than the fact that, Bo is extremely talented than most people in the population, and worked harder than everyone else to get the success he has. And he’s actually pretty representative of the overall population of the country he lives in, if we are looking at %. I’m not saying that the system doesn’t have problems. It does. Industries like Hollywood itself, absolutely have gatekeeping. And sometimes people with talent, are not allowed to succeed. But the thing is, Bo and everyone at this table trying to be an “ally” isnt even good enough, because the beliefs of those upset with the system, see these people as inherently apart of the problem, just by the fact that they were born in the majority % of the country. This is NOT about equity. This is about something entirely else. And its obvious, when you consider other countries have an even more diverse population % break down than the US, and its mainly the US, that is having these issues of being obsessed with making things 50/50 even if the % breaks down are no longer representative of the actual population demographics.

I understand if he doesn't exactly want to be, but he is our "core" representative in hollywood. Growing up with the internet. Becoming famous in this "non-traditional" format of storytelling.

@@MyOwnPrivateSkyeby I know I'm late to the game, but my understanding of what he was saying is this: there is a lot of political correctness, and this is frequently criticised these days as being over the top etc. And he talks about the election being a failure of culture, and people trying to pick apart our culture, what we say, the stories we make, how we speak, representation, etc., To try to figure out what went wrong, and that this can often lead to things like over the top political correctness and go to far and turn into a kind of panic. He talks about these "overcorrections" that people find frustrating, and how he sympathises with that frustration and shares in it. But he acknowledges how it is a reaction to inequalities (representation, lack of diversity, etc). If we're trying to figure out a solution to these inequalities, why would we expect that solution to be entirely fair? The stuff that has been going on for a long time isn't fair, and we shouldn't necessarily expect the solution to the current problems to be entirely fair all the time. So yeah there is overcorrection, OTT political correctness, and an overly in-depth analysis of every aspect of our culture trying to pick apart and identify what's right and wrong, but he feels like this is on the path to a better place (more diverse and exciting art) than where we started, and he is happy to be a part of this process, and kind of... what other way would there be of getting there. As a side note, it feels similar to me to the way that people have reacted to the whole gender equality movement. There were criticisms of some efforts to rebalance the scales as being unfair to men, and going too far in the direction of favouring women, but one argument to that could be that the unfairness of the situation and the history of the situation necessitates solutions that aren't always fair all of the time. I hope my last point didn't discredit the rest of what he just said, it's just another parallel that I felt was relevant.

Above post nailed it on the head I think. Essentially the pendulum is bound to swing further than center when trying to change inequality. With feminism for example: a lot of dudes feel like feminism "takes things too far" and "isn't fair for men", and I don't know whether that's true in the first place, but even if it were...would that matter?

You don't have to do that on YT, it's been proven again and again that people will watch/listen to long-form content on the internet. Online podcasts with just host + one guest talking are often 3+ hours so how can you expect to have a meaningful discussion on more than one topic in 60mins?

The rising anti-white racism in society is disturbing. Look at the Convington Kids, Jussie Smollett and your comment. The US is a majorly white country, so what is the problem with a single video having white writers in it? You wouldn't be complaining about this if the writers were all black. People like you are so predictable with your anti-white racism. It might just be that the people who were invited for this video were selected based on the content of their character instead of the color of their skin. It's a novel idea, which you should probably contemplate. I also don't see how adding another race would somehow change this roundtable for the better? The mere fact that a person isn't white doesn't suddenly mean that they're more valuable as a guest. It's also important to note that diversity, especially forced, isn't necessarily better. Why would it be? The fact that people are different skin tones doesn't automatically mean that it's bound to be better. Lastly, It might also be that they invited several writers of different races, but that these were the ones who ultimately accepted.

People know these things are heavily edited, right? They probably cut out dead air by making it seem like he starts talking as soon as she finished, or trimmed a run-on/redundant sentence.

While they're speaking about "A Star Is Born" and how it's a beautiful, honest romance (that was practically just released at the time) and going on to say that Romance is part of the Zeitgeist and people do seem scared of making that kind of film nowadays, he interrupts in the middle of that to ask "Why has romance vanished from society?" (???? What the fuck kind of boomer question is that, and what does it have to do with film or screenwriting, also it's not true?) and looks immediately to Tamara, the only woman in the room, as if she with her lovey-dovey touchy-feely woman brain could tell him. I don't want to make a claim on whether he was being deliberately sexist, but you can tell by her reaction (widened eyes, looking around the room slightly taken aback whilst oddly amused at the situation "You're asking me? I dunno..") that she felt awkward. She kept getting singled out in a really weird way. Agree with Lurklen further below, "could be a gender thing or he just doesn't like her, either way it's distracting and it did her a disservice." If she is the only female on the panel, even if Galloway didn't like her, for the sake of doing his JOB and being a moderator, he needs to be self-aware enough to put whatever bias he has aside and treat her better. In 2019, he/The Hollywood Reporter shouldn't be perpetuating this and I'm honestly very pleasantly surprised and relieved that the comments reflect that same frustration. Some of the other panellists are unfortunately also quite quick to interrupt and it should be Galloway's job to make sure everyone is being heard and gets equal time to express their ideas and opinions, not add to/be the problem.

It feels basic and too boring for a group of innovators to be faced with. Kind of interesting that he started with the Trump question -- both trivializing and inspired. Overall, he seems to have bad instincts about how to guide a conversation emotionally. Didn't really know how to be present for Bo.

@@nancya7289 I see what you are saying. But, the fact that he starts topics in a different way or understands the reference doesn't make him a good interviewer. He interrupts way too often, even more to women and he is rude. Like in the begging of the video with Peter Farrelly or with Ryan Coogler in the directors roundtable. If you want to see good example of how this could work better, watch how Edgar Wright interviews directors: he understands the reference, pushes the conversation to places where is educational and entertaining to watch. More important... he is not rude.

I think he's a real pro. I think he's got a far tougher job than people give credit for, and I think he's working extremely hard to let people speak, but also to make sure that *everyone* has a chance to speak. Without a moderator who at times interrupts, you can have conversations go off the rails. And while at times it can be fascinating, more often than not, it's boring as sin.

bo speaking is so calming and relaxing, he knows know much and has so many ideas and he can convey them perfectly

"A representational elephant in the room." Damn. Well played Bo.

First I thought why is Krasinski and Burnham there, they're barely writers having only done one or so movie each, but then I thought it's actually quite nice to have a diverse table of experienced writers and firstimers, cause everybody starts at a beginning. It doesn't matter if they're still at the beginning or closer to the end, they're all writers. Oh, and writers are given far too little credit in the movie business. So please bring more writers to the table.

I only clicked on this for Bo and he barely got any airtime. Felt like the two or three oldest white dudes in the room talking louder than everyone else, not to mention this disaster of a moderator. I was going to give him the benefit of the doubt, but after reading comments here, it seems he makes a habit of cutting people off when they're in the middle of answering a question he directed at them. Also, interesting how Tamara got cut off mid-sentence when she gave thoughtful answers and the older guys ran buckwild going on and interrupting each other. They seemed to be having a natural conversation, and honestly I would've been fine with just those guys in a room having a conversation about writing. But there were three other writers in the room and I would've thought that the moderator's job would be to make sure everyone gets about the same amount of time to speak, and if not, then that would be the editor's job to cover for him and make it look like all of these writers are actually wanted at the table. I'm obviously biased but the last couple of minutes were actually getting good, getting honest, and getting engaging, but it cuts off so abruptly and so unnaturally. I've never watched one of these videos before and now I don't really see why anyone does.

Paul Schrader has 24 screenwriting credits, Eric Roth has 25, Bo Burnham has 1. To expect equal time given to them all on a discussion about screenwriting is a bit silly, to be honest. It's also silly, in my eyes, that the interviewer didn't outweigh that balance by asking Bo about the process of writing for a musical comedy stage show and a screenplay, which would allow him to delve into his history as a writer.

Your other facilitators let the discussion develop and flow, allowing for organic, interesting, and often unexpected insight. This gentleman steps all over the conversation, interrupting and truncating so he can shoehorn in his next question. Please, either coach him, or give your other interviewers his air-time. Thank you.

Well, the roundtable with writers are always the best for me. And I'm tempted to consider this as one of the best. Bo Burnham is a national treasure. Well articulated, eloquent, and aware of what he speaks, thinks and does. John Krasinski is a perfect example of an open-hearted artist to interpret the symbols scattered throughout the world. Peter Farrelly knows how to translate emotions in a very sensitive way. Tamara Jenkins has a beautiful point of view about life and its vissicitudes. And what about Paul Schraeder and Eric Roth? Two valuable encyclopedias; makes you want to spend hours, days and weeks listening to them.

Thank you for giving all of them credit. A lot of young people only here for Bo and John Krasinski (Both whom are amazing and should be praised) but seriously overlook who they are sitting at the table with. Paul Schrader and Eric Roth are two of the most legendary screenwriters of all time. Peter and Tamara are very intuitive of what is going on in the various demographics of modern society. All of them make a very unique and insightful table. Hopefully we can start seeing more diversity in these writers rooms soon!

Interesting that as soon as bo brings up the other elephants, brings up representation, and important matters in art, that's when they're out of time. I love he brought up that the table wasn't diverse. I love he spoke up!

did no one catch 14:24 ... maybe it's me but I feel like he wouldn't have cut off any of the other writers so blatantly and disrespectfully

OMW that last answer from Bo shook me to my core. So eloquent.

Despite the Elephant in the Interview (i.e. the interviewer), there was much of interest and value in this roundtable. I am particularly excited to have been introduced to Bo Burnham through this and look forward to hearing much more from and through both him and John Krasinski, whom I already admired and appreciated.

Warning though! His "brand" of comedy is more on the dark and slightly offensive side. He is very intellectual (as seen in this interview), but there's a decently thick layer of "trigger warning" that some/most people today will get offended by. So if there is something that makes you upset, he's probably made a joke about it in one way or another. Except politics. That's like the one main avenue he will never really touch on.

Here are some people of color writers from high profile 2018 films that should've been invited to this round table: Daveed Diggs, Boots Riley, Barry Jenkins, Kevin Kwan, and Aneesh Chaganty,
