Marvel has just been a huge failure on TV, but that is precisely why they can do this. It isn't like Disney will be losing much revenue (unlike Warner if they moved their very lucrative CW/Netflix DC series to a streaming service that almost nobody has). 5 minutes ago, Avatree said: or maybe its vice versa -- the content that goes out for free is the weaker stuff, you pay premium if you want premium content. kind of how network/cable TV has worked since... forever? Next thing you'll be telling me that game of thrones is higher quality than CSI Miami. Not forever, it has been like this for only a decade or so. Until (relatively) recently the most expensive and prestigious shows were more likely to air on network TV.

On the other hand the though of how much burn MCU’s utter dominance over all these years must have caused you is one of the greatest pleasures this board has given me. I’m really looking forward to your posts when Endgame comes out I don't think you'll see me saying anything about it, I don't usually care about childrens movies, the last one I saw was The Boss Baby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is that there were all sorts of reasons to pay for cable (now streaming): genre/niche shows, sports, adult content... Quality ("premium content") wasn't really a factor until the last few years, with the exception of HBO.

I don't know why you act like I'm a hater, I already admitted I loved Ant-man and the Wasp and I hated Aquaman. If Marvel makes movies I like I will enjoy it and be honest about it and when DC does movies I don't like, it's going to be the same thing. I'm allowed to not enjoy things other people like.

lorddemaxus Posted February 19, 2019 Share Posted February 19, 2019 What she said makes sense. It is easier for people to make movies (including women) now because of things like phones. I mean High Flying Bird just released and was filmed with an iPhone and is probably the best film of the year right now. What she said has nothing to do with SJW-ness or diversity. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
