When the entire company is probably a money laundering front that works for porn, it's not a surprise. The internet moves forward with porn. That's the obvious sign they have investors willing to ignore the costs so long as they get what they want.

Most immigrants have a weird time. People expect you to be heavily accented and not understand English, even when it's a common language spoken around the world.

Arnold Schwarzenegger can sound American if he wants, but people demand he keep his accent. I sound pretty dang American until I stub my toe.

My tabernacle of power potions has a good ring to it.

I doubt we can bring back raping as a punishment.

Its the cost and control. Grand Toure is ending because the creators are too old to really continue. Its been a great show because the executives could be trusted to make a great show that would bring in viewers. If something cost too much, they stopped doing that the next season, for example the tent moving around everywhere.

Rings of Power cost a ton, and the creators weren't trusted, so they put in a lot of extra executives. These committee types were the ones demanding woman power and other ideas because they wanted to get as many viewers as they could. It was really dumb, but committees full of crazy people are like that. Its especially obvious the creators didn't actually understand Tolkien and his works to really continue. Add in a lot of ego and you have this result.

The shows you mentioned are way cheaper, have a fairly easy concept to understand, and people who want to make that. Way less committees and ego.

The reason why Disney fails is the same reason why Rings of Power failed. They love committees and meetings, have egos, and the cost means looking at every detail. This is why the movie or hotel is generic but specific details are amazing.

Add in a bit of weird funding problems like esg and you have a product for no one that's supposed to be for everyone.

Bloodborne with graphics mods would be amazing.

That video is AI. I recognize the movements.

That said, I've met people who worked in a successful department for mk ultra. They could get positive results a third of the time. There was no way to improve it, because there was no way to understand how it worked. Eventually it ran out of funding, and they were released from their contracts.

Aliens being real isn't a shock, it's that we don't understand why they're visiting. We don't want to find out it's for whales.

He's Argentine, and opinions about him vary. He got Brazilians to now at his feet. He might be Satan. The first one was good. The second one not so much.

There are similar feelings about Che Guevera. The joke goes "why do I have his t shirt?" He's probably the most iconic Argentine in the world. He's also called Dude. Che basically translates to dude in Argentine. Imagine a politically based killer who talks like a surfer. Its really weird.
