The Real Threat to Creative Production is not AI
This brilliant piece on Netflix and it’s systematic destruction of filmed entertainment — and that it was “Built on Lie“
It’s a long read, but definitely the holiday gift you didn’t know you needed. Highlights for me include; “As with its DVD rental business, its commitment to good filmmaking is short-lived.” This part is where the built on a lie story comes in. And how “what most consumers now know as documentaries are nothing more than a supermarket aisle of tabloids.” And the best for last, “never has a group of studios gained so much control over the production, distribution, exhibition and reception of movies by making movies no one cares about or remembers.” Time to rethink that subscription and invest in a new model, join me.
