All those shitty remakes aren't going to write themselves.

THINK OF THE CINEMATIC UNIVERSES

Legitimately don't know.

I guess you need good writers for TV now, but most Hollywood movies are generic enough that you don't really need "real" writers for them. I guess that's the catch.

Do you think companies like Netflix and Amazon Prime video care?

>Well, the first thing you would see, I think, is that late night would go into reruns. Those shows are written every day. Of course, they're very topical. You would probably see other shows - network shows, cable shows - go into reruns. You might actually see somebody like - a company like Netflix drop a bunch of new shows because they produce shows differently from the rest of the gang. They do an entire season at once. When Netflix releases something, you get all the episodes. So they could actually, you know, maybe benefit from this.

The first time they went on strike they had been putting out a lot of good stuff and a lot of dog shit, but the shit seemed to be fading away and the good stuff was just getting better.

By striking they literally set fire to everything that was either running or in the pipeline, directly resulting in the last decade of total shit. Capeshit, the car movie franchise, found footage horror, etc, etc.

Now they're striking again. After producing nothing but shit for a solid decade.

Fuck them.

Why doesn't Hollywood just hire college kids? They would have the same shit writing plus save money

This isn't even the problem. You could get the best writer in history to work on your film, but hollywood would still destroy it because they intentionally make their films bland and dumb so they can appeal to the widest market possible
