Hollywood, Actors, that whole culture, -straight out-, is a dying culture. The money is leaking out.

Will Smith, a very well known name, Fresh Prince (2022) tv show, (most famous youtuber?) and will be in a movie for the next 30 years, is one of The Kings of the Hollywood.
Rock, a jester, insulted a queen. Then a king put his subject in to his place. (Yeah, might as well go all the way with this king analogy.)


As time moves forward, and our ability to collectively agree, "yes, this or that person is allowed to be famous" shrinks, we are going to see a lot more crazy Hollywood poo poo.

Hollywood was a huge gatekeeper in who is allowed to be famous. The internet with it's micro-fame, broken down that gate and stripped Hollywood of that power.

They lost so much power that people can call them all pedophiles, and send Bill Cosby or Weinstein to court. Nobody cares.


Very few people are "THAT FAMOUS" any more. Covid closing the theaters was not that big of blow. Streaming was a kick to the nuts. Steaming is letting in tons of new voices which diluted the importance of every single currently famous person. That is why all the directors wanted the "theater experience" or hated the use of "digital film" because expensive equipment is another gatekeeper to making film.

Tech outpaced them, and now all that's lefts are characters, brands and specific actors? Maybe some directors?



The recording industry has the luxury of dying behind closed doors before cellphones were common. The film industry.....It's gonna be a beautiful.

Will Smith’s assault on Chris Rock may easily inspire the impulse of a drunk steak head in a comedy club to walk up to the stage and pop a stand-up comic because he didn’t like a joke. A hyper-toxic powder keg moment that validates horrible behavior.

Directors wanting the theater experience with fancy cameras that pick up lighting is them being correct. Streaming is trash and should never have gone past making direct to video action movies, which is the only thing it excels at

Someone is currently writing a 40k word article about how the "Smith Slap" proves the inherent aggression of African Americans. The article will feature many crime stats, graphs, and citations of Charles Murray.

The talk about the Smith Slap normalizing violence is extremely funny considering how few people watch the Oscars. Even ignoring fictional violence, most local news programs, which I believe are the most watched type of TV program in the US, air a snuff film at least every week. Last week I saw a public transit employee gun down a drunk guy first thing on the 5pm news. Then I heard about how widespread other crime was for 10 minutes, a segment on the war in Ukraine, and it finished out covering a charity for local dogs.

I watched that too. The theme is great. A simplification of the banger chorus.

Just found out only murders season 2 starts the end of June. The first season was a pleasant, funny watch.
