So, if a24 can go ahead, why bother with the amptp anyway?

Start crowdfunding replacements to weaken the studio system, it’s not like things magically get better from here, especially once they realize ai means they can truly own their actors again like the old days.

A24 is agreeing to the union’s demands 100%.

If you are a major studio, you are trying not to agree to those demands.

  I’m saying, the studio system gets us nothing, distribution isn’t like it used to be, they’re just acting like really crappy banks now.
  
  I mean, do we really need more Weinstein’s raping vulnerable people? Is that what we want to pay for?

    The studio system has been acting like crappy banks for a while, at least a generation.
    
    And feel free to pay for smaller studio content and patron those kinds of movies.
    
    However, crowdfunded visual media has shown itself to be not lucrative. If it was, a lot more would be crowdfunded by now.
