Dakota blames "decisions being made by committee"


...for Madame Web failure instead of accusing customers of being waycist and sexist bigots. Dakota is right.

“It’s so hard to get movies made, and in these big movies that get made — and it’s even starting to happen with the little ones, which is what’s really freaking me out — decisions are being made by committees, and art does not do well when it’s made by committee,” Johnson answered. “Films are made by a filmmaker and a team of artists around them. You cannot make art based on numbers and algorithms. My feeling has been for a long time that audiences are extremely smart, and executives have started to believe that they’re not. Audiences will always be able to sniff out bullshit. Even if films start to be made with AI, humans aren’t going to fucking want to see those."

She's a product of nepotism but she's not wrong here.

I agree with her analysis and good for her.


Give a fuck about what?

I think she cares that they fucked up her movie. I think that she cares that piling on to blaming the fans won't help her or the movie.

"Cares about you"?

At this point, NOT spewing hate and contempt at me, puts her in a "Good" light, relative to hollywood as a whole.

Audiences ARE prejudiced... They're prejudiced against unforgivably shitty movies

This makes me think about how "The Godfather (1972)" was created, as told in the series "The Offer (2022)". All the times that Al Ruddy refused to obey Paramount, risking his job and career to protect Mario Puzo's and Francis Ford Coppola's vision, proved to be the absolutely right way to do it.

And now we have this committee bullshit. You are correct Dakota; we the audience can absolutely sniff it out. Committee filmmaking must end.
