Snow White opens to a $43 million dollar weekend, still being spun as a positive because it’s the “6th highest grossing movie of the year (so far)” (media.scored.co)

I've seen Dog Man, it was trash so it looks like the entire industry is bombing.

A much better title would be, has leftism finally killed Hollywood?

We have a serious competency crisis brought on by DEI. They locked straight white dudes out of western entertainment, and now western entertainment sucks.

It's astonishing how they have ruined books.

Since 2020, not a single white man has even been nominated (of 25 total nominations). The past decade has seen 70 finalists for the Center for Fiction’s First Novel Prize—with again, not a single straight white American millennial man. Of 14 millennial finalists for the National Book Award during that same time period, exactly zero are white men. The Wallace Stegner Fellowship at Stanford, a launching pad for young writers, currently has zero white male fiction and poetry fellows (of 25 fiction fellows since 2020, just one was a white man). Perhaps most astonishingly, not a single white American man born after 1984 has published a work of literary fiction in The New Yorker (at least 24, and probably closer to 30, younger millennials have been published in total).

Just imagine how much talent is going down the drain. If Shakespeare, Dante, Goethe, Vergil were alive today, they'd be told to f off because they're privileged white boys. No wonder nothing worth reading exists. People aren't being awarded and published based on their skills but on their melanin & vagina count.

"Why do white men hate progressivism?"

Chinas movie industry is booming, whether actual or artificial who knows, but they have the top grossing movie of the year overwhelmingly.

A lot of it is booming because there are a bajillion Chinamen and they will buy anything made in China because they have strong nationalistic tendencies like that. So its probably mostly actual, but non-indicative of anything beyond "was made in China."

The Wukong game broke so many playercount records you'd think it was a generation defining masterpiece, but instead it was forgotten within a few months and nobody has thought about it since because it was just "decent action game, but China".

None of this is a problem really, but its one of those necessary contexts when comparing their industry to our own.

Unless you think Transformers and Fast and the Furious are the best franchises in American movie history, because that's what China thinks is "top dollar quality."

As an aside, I see a lot of cinephiles who raged at 'cletus and Joanne' for buying anything Micheal Bay has made go really quiet when this is mentioned.

I mean, those types probably did make up a lot of the American audience, but there just aren't that many of them to turn it into a billion dollar franchise each.
