Gorgeous! The New York Times has an article lamenting that "Hollywood’s business culture has started to regress in subtle ways", because studios start to get rid of the woke nonsense (I personally don't believe that, Little Mermaid etc.):
New problems — widespread cost-cutting as the box office continues to struggle, coming union contract negotiations that producers worry will result in a filming shutdown — have become a higher priority. Fearing blowback, media companies that were vocal about #MeToo and Black Lives Matter have been quieter on more recent political debates over cultural issues.
Diversity, equity and inclusion executives say they are exhausted (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/dei-hollywood-cdo-chief-diversity-officers-dei-equity-inclusion-1235180434/) by an old-boy network that is continuously trying to reconstitute itself: Women who were hired for big jobs and held up as triumphant examples of a new era have been pushed aside (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/05/business/ann-sarnoff-warner-bros.html), while some of the men who were sidelined by misconduct accusations are working again.
Typical liberal nonsense: Public refuses to pay for woke films, that goes against the libtard agenda, hence whose fault is it? The "Old boys network". Surely!
“For three years, we hired nothing but women and people of color,” said a senior film executive, who like many leaders in the industry is a white male. He added that he did not think some of them were able to do the jobs they got.
They point to terrible ticket sales (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/02/movies/bros-smile-box-office.html) for films like “Bros,” the first gay rom-com from a major studio, and “Easter Sunday,” a comedy positioned as a watershed moment for Filipino representation. “Ms. Marvel,” a critically adored (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/ms_marvel) Disney+ series about a teenage Muslim superhero, was lightly viewed, according to Nielsen’s measurements.
Well, who would have guessed that? :D
