      @@mudmen3 Okay, so patronising is the only gear you have. i bet you think that's a scathing retort you spewed there. Unfortunately for you, that is, like everything else in your wee tantrum, altogether wrong. Perhaps check Jeffrey Katzenberg's wiki page, or even watch this video - he was, is and probably will ever be nothing to do with CZcams, he worked for Disney, which also didn't invent CZcams. In the 90s. The whole factual basis on which you chose to hang your attack is wrong. It's not a good look. But isn't it convenient for you that you can start an argument and only need to be right on one single issue in your tirade of invective and wrong? Even though you didn't actually mention that issue and it's hidden behind a wall of sneer and rage. And wrapping everything in quotation marks doesn't let you pretend when you use words that you're really talking about something else.
      So, in answer to your initial question: no, you didn't hurt my feelings, why would you flatter yourself that you could? i was just passing by and saw an Internet thug vomiting fury and bile at some random stranger in a CZcams comment.
      And where i'm from, we've had universal suffrage for nearly 100 years, so forgive me if i don't leap to thank you when you or anyone else try to claim personal credit for it.
      You want to talk about ageism? Fine. It's a real issue. You'd think, with your vast experience, though, that you'd have figured out by now that people might be more likely to consider your opinion if you don't open by insulting them. Of course, you *_can_* show that you've never been one to complain about entitled Gen Xers or whiny millennial snowflakes, right? After all, you wouldn't want to be a hypocrite as well as a bully, would you?

    From what I've heard working under Jeffrey Katzenberg is hell and after production hell it might work out, but the process to get there wasn't sustainable in many many ways. Like apparently people like Stanley Kubrick and Hayao Miyazaki are difficult to work with, but in their case it's because they know where they're going with the project and they want the details to be just right. So it's not production hell with those two.

I think people mostly if they're gonna watch on the go, will just bring a laptop anyway on a train/bus or whatever, negating the need for a phone app trying to compete with all that, plus weirdos like myself who mostly just use their phone as an mp3 player while on walks.

    This reminds me of some online comics that I read which publish only one page at a time, but every day or so. As mentioned, the broken down format doesn't work with everything, but I find it can do wonders with slice of life/comedy/and such types of stories. The fact that you have to wait in between mini episodes is similar to watching series air on tv, in the sense that the wait makes you invested in it, and the overall spread from the time you watched/read the first episode to when you did the last one or the one you are currently at really makes it grow on you. And isn't that how stories become important to us? I reread some of those 1-page-a-day comics after some time, but all in one go, and found that my experience was rather less appreciative of the story. It was just so much better when it was still airing, because I would get home after class/work and every day before I went to bed I had my one page of daily story episode. What I mean to say is, I do believe that this kind of format could work, because I've seen it happen. I don't think it is adapted to all genres though, since as mentioned build up and action wouldn't work out too well. There were elements of build up which worked nicely in the comics I read, but rather on the long term (waiting for the chapter when that one thing is finally going to happen). Anyway, just wanted to share this.

    Honestly, Katzenberg wasn't even "with it" when he worked on stuff like the Disney Renaissance. It's well documented that he wanted to do stuff like cut out "Part of Your World" or believed that Pocahontas was the "legit" movie compared to Lion King (which were produced simultaneously). The guy never had any clue, he was just lucky to get an amazing creative team together at disney animation and the support of michael eisner.
    Oh, and he also screwed over Robin Williams. So there's that.

      He also screwed over his own studio by canceling Me and My Shadow, a movie that combined hand drawn animation with cgi animation so it could be a tax write off, he said Megamind, a movie that perfectly subverts the hero and villain tropes, was bad, Over the Hedge was bad and he probably thought that Peabody and Sherman was going to the next big thing like Shrek or Dragons.

    Five months later and are any of us surprised Quibi is now shutting down?

    Saw some commercials for The Most Dangerous Game and got pretty excited for it, had no idea it was a Quibi thing. No wonder I couldn't find it anywhere.

    Good points. The only thing I want to say is that I find myself unable to screenshot or screen record on other movie apps either. Not on Netflix, Disney+, or Hulu. So I’m not surprised Qibi has done the same.
    Hurts my soul when I try to save, or send someone, a funny frame just to see a black screen

    Netflix actually won't let you take screenshots either. At least, not on mobile. It's very frustrating.

    About Katzenberg being in the know...yeah, on Katzenberg's first day at the Disney company, he demanded a scene from Black Cauldron be cut, only for the director of the film to be like "You can't just "cut" an animated film."

    i downloaded it because some of the stuff seemed interesting (they tried to block me from a 90 day trial bc i was in quebec like people dont have vpns lmao) but it's pretty disappointing. the video quality keeps buffering and there's no way to fix it, the fictional contetn has potential, like there is some good stuff, but a lot of it is just frustrating, like with the editing and such, especially reality tv ugh

    "Some more news" did a very good episode on this _thing_ .
    Also, I get your frustration about the age difference. It just feels like a classical Hollywood/ porn couple in which the woman is young, fit & gorgeous & the man is way older, average (sometimes even below average let's be real) & very, very hairy for some reason. It sends a terrible message to the audience, gives a distorted view of reality (which many people take at face value) & it's so heterosexual male-centric. Just wrong on so many levels.
    But when the anger/frustration is fresh it's hard to put the finger on it. So yeah, I get it.

    Great breakdown! I got the app for the Reno 911 revival and that was fun but it was weird that just when I felt like the episode was picking up it was over and on to the next. I think the app creators thought oh people are on the go so they don’t have time to watch long shows. But look at the views long CZcams videos get. Look at shows that are binge watched. People will gobble up content no matter the length if it’s interesting and good.
