…They Meant to show it to you. That’s par for the course in this shit.
They just didn’t mean for you to get it.
Don’t make V’s angle the story tho. It’ll make them act like their hatred has more relevance & resonance than it does and they’ll use that attention to justify doing more of the same. Pissed off eyes are still eyes to them. They’ll frame themselves as “disruptors” – without being forced to say that what they want to disrupt is any fully fiscally backed opportunities being given to other directors of merit with original projects that don’t look like them or sit within the crosshairs of their decrepit, convoluted confirmation biases.
Understand that things have slowed down due to all of us speeding up… so we see the shit that was once slick.
Understand that what you are witnessing is the creation of the [now digital] paper trail that is behind ‘justified industry sentiments’ used to explain away why Crazy Rich Asians came out 25 years after the explosion of the Joy Luck Club, WHY there still hasn’t been a 2nd Harlem Nights and they won’t allow any sequels to hilarious Black movies they can’t do a Blade 3 number on ( to try to get rich trying to ruin the Black lead-whole other post)…
This is the lead they usually bury immediately upon any signs of success.
It’s the leavening scattered into the minds of those they’ve put in place to keep the racist status quo chugging away, humping that dead corpse in lieu of changing.
Back of House there are many a ‘next’ that gets shelved or buried due to someone pointing to a funky article like this as proof of unprofitability.
Don’t get mad…get present.
See what you’re being shown about what they are and where they stand. Your attention is almost everything to them.
& Instead … let them stand where they decided to stand and you stay Celebrating with Cooler & Jordan.
This is “I put before you blessings & curses, which will you choose? As for me & my house…” time.
Where are you gonna stand? What kind of world are you working towards?
