      @@brittscott4673 Could be. Personaly I think they are just the wrong writters for the job that focus on the wrong things. They were hired by people who dosn't have their priorities straight. If you're a writer, and your boss orders you to write garbage, no matter how hard working you are, or how talanted you are, the result will be garbage.
      Ofc people are going to point to the writers - but I would argue, the bigger fault lies in people hiring those writers. Maybe some of them shouldn't be writing a movie script for Star Wars. Maybe they would be better if they would put their talent into other ventures. That's just the reality. And maybe, it's not just that the writing is bad - but the whole concept and premise recent Disney remakes and Star Wars sequels stand on is bad. And no writer in the world can save it.
      Persoanly, I would argue it's both. And these 2 problems feed one another.
      Because the premise is bad, good writers will go somewhere else, or will be unwilling to write a "woke" show for example. And because writers that are willing are bad, they work hard, yet aren't compensated for it, nor is their product any good. Which means any potential new writer will also want to stay away from the garbage.

      "Good writers" were always the ones that either made the movie or the book. The "good writers" never gave a damn about corporate values. They were philosophers in their own right. There's no such thing as "good writers" that do this for a living. a GOOD WRITER writes for posterity. For sharing his story to the world.

    Hollywood has hit a level of narcissism that only it can't see. Agree or not with the politics, business is business. As a musician in an industry where my political views don't align, I don't talk about my political views. I shut up and make the music people listen to. Simple. Hollywood has done this for nearly a century before deciding to go political. It's no coincidence that when they decide to pick a political side, their numbers plummet. It would have the exact same outcome if they came out conservative or green or whatever political affiliation you want to choose. You alienate a massive amount of your audience when you speak up politically and those that walk away from you are only your fault.

That is the key to understanding why this is going on. If you can back up to the power that be, well beyond people like Kathleen Kennedy and even the CEO's of Disney, that is where the answer lies.

And instead of recognizing it and changing course the "writers" ask for more money and we are supposed to sympathize? Where do all those supporters think the more money for writers is going to come from? Their new subscription prices going up and up.

    Considering even a recent 'hit' like 'Wednesday' was basically saved by a 20 something actress who knew more about the main character than the writers did (and she still couldn't convince them that Wednesday having two love interests wasn't a Wednesday thing at all, and it turned out kinda cringe), and the writers for 'the Witcher' even went as far as to openly admit that they meant to deviate from the source material, I think it's safe to day that the writers need to lose badly on this strike.
    They've been too infiltrated by the Woke, and been handed the reigns to too many franchises that should simply print money, and managed to fail with them.
    The don't care what they ruin, as long as they get to inject their politics into it.
    They're not going to lose money if a project fails, the producers will.
    The writers will just cash their paychecks and go off to ruin something else.
    They need to have this power taken from them now. They had their chance to prove how valuable they are, and they botched it.
    Let them tell their story walking.

      “Our works in stone, in paint, in print, are spared, some of them, for a few decades or a millennium or two, but everything must finally fall in war, or wear away into the ultimate and universal ash - the triumphs, the frauds, the treasures and the fakes.

    Newspapers once had HUGE profits, even with lots of reporters and photographers and editors producing good product. Twenty years ago, the big owners saw their profits start slipping. Twenty to thirty percent profit margins dropped to ten or fifteen percent, a level many industries only have in wet dreams. That’s when the traditional owners started selling out to hedge funds which began to dismantle their properties. Today, Gannett content producers are going on strike, apparently not aware that they’re lucky to still have careers. Hollywood has gotten used to ridiculous profits and when they begin to be unsustainable, the studios will eventually be taken over by hedge funds who won’t hire woke millennials…they’ll fire four out of five employees. Many of those striking today will be back to working in food service.
