Activists: "We didn't read the comics and source material."
Us: "We didn't watch your shows and movies."
Activists: "Then you're racist sexist homophobic and transphobic"!!!!!
So love this comment because it’s so true.
Hollywood: Racists!!!
I literally refused to watch Hulk and Echo. Couldn't take the &%$#@. Ugh.
Nailed it!
DEI = Didn't Earn It
😂😂😂😂😂
And every "diverse" talent that pops up during this mess will be thought of as such even if they actually have talent. This thing has never been about helping "diverse" people it's about wrestling power from talented people for contract workers who can't renegotiate contracts or leave because they have no skills. These shills have to prop up the companies even if they screw them over because they can't survive without them.
Doctrination, Exclusion, Infiltrate
Death of Entertainment Intentionally
Yeah because it aint right if it aint white...
Imagine a movie critic saying: "I didn't actually watch the movie."
😂 right the gall of these people is incredible
9:55 YOU'RE IN A EUROPEAN COUNTRY. God forbid the people in the royal family in a European country are...EUROPEAN??? Would she also go to the Ashanti Kingdom in Ghana, see their royal family, and say "wow I can't believe the royal family here is astoundingly black". They're blinded by their own racism.
Well said !!!
>>can't believe the royal family here is astoundingly black
Nah, if they are European royalty, they have to be portrayed by gay and transgender people who are all different races
No, it only works one way. A cast is more diverse if more and more minorities on it and when they are all black - it is perfectly diverse. Don't question the logic. That is heresy against doctrine.
I'm excited for the upcoming biopic of Emperor Hirohito starring Michael Fassbender in the lead role. Because, you know...diversity.
Hollywood is flooded with activists instead of writers, producers, directors, and show runners. That's literally what happened.
Please pray for the Palestinian trans kids of Gaza
"Evil cannot be creative...." and it can never admit they were wrong.
But it is even worse now; Directors and Producers thought they could write. Now, no writer with any self-respect will work in wHorrywood because of hideous pay & conditions.
The death=spiral continues.
IMHO, this can't change. Look for something else; foreign or independent does not matter, Hollyweird and Dis-me are dying or dead, forever. There is no saving them now.
@@TransKidsMafiaI pray that they repent of their sins and live according to God's law and put their faith in Jesus Christ.
Hee hee to that 💯
@@Isaac_5.56x45 He was being sarcastic
Johnny Depp nailed it last May: “I don't feel boycotted by Hollywood, because I don't think about Hollywood. I don't have much further need for Hollywood, myself,” Depp said. “It's a strange, funny time where everybody would love to be able to be themselves, but they can't. They must fall in line with the person in front of them. If you want to live that life, I wish you the best.”
That is right on the money
For real - that's almost beautiful! 👏🏽🥲
That's a really awesome sentiment. I seriously wish him all the best, Johnny had enough shit thrown at him in his life - and on his bed.
Yea, after your woman shits on your bed you basically become nonchalant to most things.
In its own way, that's quite inspirational.
Being 51 I am old enough to remember when the “Best most talented and experienced” person got the Job.
What ever happened to those days?
@@radioactiverantpodcast feminism
@@TyrianHazeIf you played “6 degrees of separation” with feminism. You could legitimately make an argument that it was a root cause of what we’re seeing today…
Funny, I'm 51 as well and I don't remember those days.
It's one thing for DEI to give us terrible entertainment for the foreseeable future, but some jobs are life and death. Failure to get the best, most talented, and/or experienced airline pilot, surgeon, engineer... (etc.) not only could possibly result in deaths... it's statistically impossible for it not to result in deaths.
It's not about equality or even equity. It's about power.
Bingo!! At the top of every far left movement today you will find sociopaths and psychopaths who are in it for themselves.
And control
DEI is about divide and conquer by social groups to conquer them more quickly
And create corporate and govt control of all
The arrogance is bad enough, the lack of talent is beyond belief.
it is almost like there is a Dunning/Kruger effect for tallent instead of intelligence.
I've never believed someone 'personally' has to be familiar with source material when adapting something. There have been enough instances in the past that prove it's not required to produce great entertainment. Sometimes an outsider perspective 'is' what you need.
The problem comes with a lack of respect for that source material. You can be unfamiliar, but you should always have a respect for it. And you should be working with other people who 'are' familiar with it, for a sense of perspective. That's the problem, imo. A lack of respect, and a lack of voices involved who can supply that experience with whatever relevant material.
Star Trek: Wrath of Khan, one of the greatest Trek movies, was directed by a guy who'd never watched Star Trek, Nicholas Meyer. But he respected the material, he recognised it mattered to people, and he was working with teams of people who had the experience and knowledge of Trek he lacked. He had the outsider perspective, which afforded him to see a picture maybe others couldn't, but he didn't disavow or ignore what made Star Trek.
So, wait did wokeism start with Hattie McDaniels, too, back in 1939?
If they had talent, they wouldn't be communists
Worse, they are actually proud of their work and it's AWFUL writing.
The sheer f’hing hubris of these people to think they can just ignore the source material!
They can and they do, and they still get paid, so what do they care?
"Wait so you're not talented? You're hired!"
@@paulmurgatroyd6372 and since that is the case, why should we care.
@@mr.punisher5100talent and experience is pretty low down the list of requirements for a writer/show runner these days!
I think they just don’t like reading very much.
It’s not just in Hollywood. It’s everywhere.
its mostly hollywood and the mainstream media. i play a ton of video games(own 201 on steam) and you almost never see this. its being rejected in sports, WBNA is a huge meme. its been rejected in anime/manga you almost never see it there either cause a lot of the workers are japanese and could care less about the american woke culture
Love the email that says “I’ve fought for all the causes and forces that’ve brought about the horrors of current moment, but I’m sad now that I’m being affected.”
self awareness is not in hollywood's talents catalogue, you know
DEI: Division, Exclusion, Incompetence
💯 my thoughts exactly!
one character swap away from DIE
Based.
DEI isn't being weaponised. That's like saying "They weaponised their guns"
DEI IS the weapon and it always was. It is the only reason it exists. Communist poison designed to replace ordinary people with political acolytes.
And it isn't just Hollywood. The only people it won't effect are the nasty elites behind it.
"We make comic book movies for people who are not comic book fans, and that were created by people who are not comic book fans." ~Hollywood
"Who are these movies for, exactly?" ~America
Even outside America no one knows who these movies are for.
~Rest of the world as well
But it's the story we wanted to tell!
If wokeism killed America then we blame Hattie McDaniels for being the first African American to win an Oscar, huh?
They'll gladly say the movie isn't for us, but apparently "us" are the majority of people.
"Shut up and entertain",
Sweeter words were never spoke.
'Nuff said.
The really hilarious part about the "J.E.D.I. Training" is that there was an article at some journal that talked about how the Jedi are "problematic" and the whole article reads like it was written by Palpatine.
Somehow Palpatine returned.
"Fight discrimination, with discrimination" Yeah this is exactly what Ibram Kendi calls for in his books. It's literally their playbook and its disgusting and vile.
Or you could sue them for breaking the law DEI is illegal.
Imagine vilifying and discriminating 80% of the population of your country. 😂
Ibram X Kendi isn’t even his real f’cking name-he’s pathetic.
@@JoJo-vg8dzSounds dumb but it's happening.
Hattie McDaniel, won an Oscar. Is that discrimination?
These people take joy in destroying the work of far more talented, defenseless creators.
Welcome to communism
These people don’t have a creative bone in their body yet somehow find themselves in writers rooms. Bewildering.
@@filmsceneinvestigation trust fund kids have to go somewhere...
Well DUH they went to "College" and "Studied" some useless garbage, of course they are incompetent and jealous.
They don't destroy anyone else's work..... it's only their own stuff that's rubbish 🤣
This is the real "cultural appropriation". People that don't give a crap about comics, producing movies about comics. And telling the comic lovers who are experts, to shut up and like it.
It’s cultural destruction by monopoly companies and govt seek to divide and conquer the populace in order to control what we all think
Hollywood was ALWAYS about propaganda, never was about art and entertainment.
DEI ... Division, Exclusion, Incompetence
DEI...Didn't Earn It.
To be Diverse, Evil must be given position.
To be Inclusive, Evil must be excused.
To be Equitable, Evil must be compensated.
That's not how I'd phrase it. Maybe switch some letters around that abbreviation. See what else you come up with and that will be the true agenda.
Alternatively, Discrimination, Exclusion, Incompetence.
Truth
Hollywood needs to be replaced. It's irredeemable.
I couldn't agree more. They are disgusting. They won't be getting any of my money.
Shame that the most countries just copy Hollywood instead going their own way
Yup its going to be just like the video game crash in the 80s all over again. I am sure they are going to be replaced sooner or later.
Social media like CZcams is already doing that Many CZcamsrs get more viewers than mainline tv shows like cnn
You guys wanted to replace Hollywood since 1939???
I used to really look up to LeVar Burton as a kid. Hearing him speak up in favor of cancel culture and mob rule is heartbreaking.
Unhoused/homeless the same damn thing. I saw a comment recently applauding a lady who said “unhoused” instead of homeless. 🤦🏻♀️ What a doofus.
And 40 years ago, "homeless person" was the new euphemism for "bum".
Watching Lavar Burton find out he has a white Confederate great great grandfather was one of the best things I've ever watched
How could that idiot not know he has white ancestors? Dude talks like people's impersonation of white people.
It's also funny how he's so conceited that he couldn't tell that he's obviously mixed. What an awful hateful person.
Ikr? Literally wanted to fight and started crying. 😂 Oh the horror poor Lavar😢😂
So beautiful to watch.
Before, he wanted people cancelled. Then after finding out about his heritage, now he wants open dialogue with the other side.
Kick rocks.
Is that kunta kinte? Lol
I'm a straight white male working at a local college. I was passed up for a promotion a couple years back to a FAR less qualified ethnic female. It has happened over & over within the administration. They just announced we are closing after the spring semester, we are all out of jobs & current students have to transfer (due to mismanagement). Thanks alot DEI! (College of Saint Rose employee - Albany, NY)
Damn, I'm from the Capital Region and didn't even know Saint Rose is closing! Such a shame for such a once great institution.
I remember when I was a little kid, that my dad would go for some job interviews. Then the interviewing hiring manager said that my dad was more qualified than most other candidates, but couldn't hire my dad because the affirmative action thing was going on and had to hire more people of color not because they were more qualified but because they had to hire a quota of non "white" people. Thankfully was ended. But I guess that is now back in swing? SAD! WE ARE BEING WREAKED.
Good, fuck united states of israel
Good, fuck united states of israel

Imagine hiring dentists, surgeons, and childcare professionals based on ethnicity rather than qualifications and expertise? It would definitely lead to unwelcome consequences.
Would you book a seat on a plane with pilots who are diverse but less qualified to fly in difficult situations?
I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings but that is exactly what is happening around you. At least two major airlines have announced with pride that their hiring of new pilots will be based on diversity and inclusion.
@@aintnunya8058 OK. I'll answer this with one word - "Taxi!"
NASA announced the next crew to the moon will be ethnic hires. How humiliating for those astronauts, forever to be known as 'best of class' instead of 'best of all', even if in fact they were the very best.
When freshmen math and English classes teach “where is your activism!?!”; we’ve pinpointed the problem.
Hello! I'm from Argentina, nobody says Latinx!!! 😂😂 It doesn't exist here!! Lot of love❤❤
It only exists here in corporate Woke media and Hollywood. Latinos here do not use the term.
Everyone knows, and you can try telling it to the liberals, but they apparently know more about your society than you do.
It doesn’t exist in any Spanish speaking country. Only in woke 😊America.
As a brazilian first time I ever read it. WTF.
Agree with all of you. It's the woke's idiotic way of pandering to their mentally ill members who hate reality! 😂😂😂
There's a man in disbelief, bursting out in tears and almost willing to resort to violence just because of the reveal that he had a white ancestor?!
Isn't that kinda... racist?
Imagine if the roles were reversed...
Didn't you hear? Black people can't be racist, racism is a one way street lol
Yes. These wackos are *intensely* racist. The whole DIE/ESG/HDTV alphabet soup has always been a scam for the Woke to project their own bigotry onto everyone else.
If the roles were reserved that actor would literally never work again.
I really dont understand why that bothers anyone, how does an ancestor being white change anything about them
they’re too stupid to know any better
I remember back in the 70s and 80s how movies and Hollywood were bigger than life now the whole industry has been completely gutted. I can't imagine a single scenario where I would ever enter a movie theater again. Years ago it was an experience with the pop corn smell mixed with the carpet smell it was glorious today I wouldn't care if they never made another movie again.
And this is just the entertainment industry. This is happening in Aviation, airlines, doctors, politics etc… people should be seriously concerned!
White male writer here. I have close to a dozen books out and have dealt with DEI Woke lunacy for years. Thank you so much for this video, Gary!

As a mechanic, I imagine saying "I never did an oil change, never even changed a tire" but yeah, it's great to be working for the Ferrari F1 team, I look forward to work on the car... 😂😂😂
It's an advantage, you don't want the engine maintained in the same way as before! Embrace new ways of doing it.
😂😂😂 with the way Ferrari has been performing, I wouldn't be surprised if this actually happened
but do you have the right color and mental problem?
It goes beyond just being incompetent or grossly mismatched for the position. The person in this situation not only wouldn't be of any help as a mechanic, they'd be putting political decals on the car. Because the goal of the job in their mind is not to care for a car, but to soapbox their political beliefs.
Thats literally what will happen in F1 within the next 20 years, i guarantee it
Whoever is finding these clips for the editing needs a raise. Good stuff
DEI starts with Division, Division leads to Exclusion, and Exclusion leads to Incompetence.
In my home country of Ireland, the state sponsored film agency has been running female only training and funding schemes for the better part of a decade now. This concerted effort to remove men, specifically straight white men, from the storytelling world runs from the heights of Hollywood to the depths of Government funded short-film schemes. I can't help but laugh when I think back to the lofty filmmaking ambitions I used to have.
i bet usa funds the same bullcrap in pakistan.
And they still are terrible at it.
The really ironic thing, is that they've proven that only swm are actually any good at creating quality entertainment for a western audience.
Hey buddy its the jews
It's not just films etc, that process covers everything in life these days
This reminds me of an interview with the actor who played M’Baku in Black panther. He basically said “when I heard I got the part I didn’t know about the character so I went to a local comic shop and the owner went in the back and handed me a stack of comics and said ‘this is every comic where your character appears.’”
This is what actors and directors SHOULD do. If you aren’t into comics then you better become an e pert fast.
It's something like Bella Ramsey where she was strongly told not to play the games for reasons I don't understand. But Bella had to watch the gameplay in secret. At least she turned in a decent performance as Ellie.
Damn....If he actually read them and did research, it makes sense why his character was great and pretty much steals every scene he is in...
Yes he is a comic book fan
Jon Berthal did the same thing when he landed the role as The Punisher. He did the right thing too by picking up Garth Ennis' Marvel Knights and Punisher Max series 🤘
not even good actor could save movies written by writers who hate the original sources.
Male and Pale = Less chance to Fail!
These activists are so out of touch with film viewers, but in touch with their feelings, unfortunately. This is like not reading any of the book and then trying to produce a classic novel adaptation into film. The dumbing down of films, the narratives, the wokeness, and the political bs have left me not wanting to watch the modern Hollywood and their generic garbage. For my money, I'll take the outliers who avoid all this and make a unique and enriching and thought-provoking film, regardless of the press, popularity, budget, or coverage of their film. And you just gotta love Norm @09:23, calling it for what it is. Thanks for the video!
That Levar scene will NEVER get old, NEVER! Can you imagine if a white actor said the same about having a black ancestor?
Even if it was a white guy being appalled and embarrassed that he had a Dahomey ancestor (you know, the African tribe that contributed countless numbers of men, women and children to the African slave tribe long before and after European clientele came and left, whose operations were made off of women forced to be warriors for their king), the fallout would be more intense than Chernobyl
@@DannyDevitoOffical-TrustMeBro dahomey, igbo, sankofa etc etc. All over sub saharan africa capturing and selling their own people into slavery for thousands of years before european contact.
It also shows Mr. Reading Rainbow is extremely ignorant. The likelihood of black people whose families spent more than a single generation in any of the slave colonies in the Americas not having a substantial European ancestry is quite small. The people in the former pirate states of north Africa have a huge about of European DNA because they kidnapped a lot of Europeans before Europe got the upper hand in the enslaving contest in the Fourteen and Fifteen Hundreds. We all need to accept we're mutts and move on.

"contributed" can be misleading. They are directly responsible for the transatlantic trade, they created and supplied the "merchandise" (YT keeps deleting my comments)
Yet history only chooses one group to blame and gives them a complete pass, they even make them heroic Hollywood movies 😢
No wonder 95% of stories in movies/TV shows are shit.
I blame the age of social media, because everybody feels like they have to be seen. Years ago, screenwriters largely went unsung.
"We don't respect the fans enough to study the source material."
I don't want them to “shut up and entertain” that ship has passed. They have tainted the whole entertainment industry with their hate and it's time someone else took over.
Yeah I think I reached "shut up and go broke while you're at it" by now. There are plenty of other fun hobbies I really don't need them.
If they think people will want to watch them play pretend just because they stopped abusing us, they’re in for a big shock. They made themselves intolerable to their main customer base
Enter CZcamsrs like Nerdrotic...
It's funny how they keep saying "Latinx" despite most Latinos and Latinas saying they hate the term.
Those are 6% Latinx
Think that is the only term that has every pissed me off my whole life. Don't have any family or friends that would ever use it. Older Generation has never heard it before.
Because they don’t actually care about Latinos/latinas or representation or any of that nonsense. The goal is to create division.

Last week I showed my kids Frequency. I described it as, "a detective and a fire fighter work together to catch a serial killer.". It dawned on me, that despite it's flaws, Frequency was an original movie, not some sequel or prequel, like so many movies are nowadays. My 14 yr old pointed out that the main character had a traditional family with a mom, a dad, and a kid.
I miss creativity and Hollywood not being anti-family.
This industry proudly brought to you by the Ministry of Truth. Exclusion is diversity. Bias is equality. Voluntary participation is mandatory. Censorship is freedom.
Really says something when it’s “We never read or researched the comic books,” to another person saying “I was *told* not to read the comics.”
There’s no plausible deniability of feigning ignorance. This is just deliberate sabotage.
It just explains why Deadpool was so good. It was made by fans of the comic *for* fans of the comic.
This video is another of those "through the Rainbow" moments where I realize that I am absolutely, definitely, "no-doubt-about-it" now living in Marxist Amerika
Lol has anyone, even an avid comic book fan read a ms marvel comic?
Hollywood used to be filled with writers and actors who served in WWII. Men who experienced the world and humanity with high intensity. That's why they were able to create stories that captured truth. Our creative class now barely has a basic grasp on reality, so it's no wonder they can't create anything meaningful.
good point
👏👏👏👍
"creative class" 😂
Well said.
Government functioned better under WWII vets too
The most disturbing part is how they demand "modern takes" and "fresh perspectives" in the making of historical flims and games. These things are completely contradictory to history. It is LITERALLY the rewriting of history.
How about the remake of Mr. And Mrs. Smith? How sickening! Nobody has any creativity left? Do the minorities like this?? I doubt it! Would I want a new fresh script, or to remake something another artist already did, just because someone wanted the stars to be minorities?
Can you imagine ME saying that I was ashamed of a black ancestor on national TV? DOUBLE STANDARD?

In truth, no they don't. DEI isn't an ideology, it's a religion. And a religion needs sacrifices. And they would gladly martyr themselves careerwise if it meant they could progress DEI.
There's a reason why they chose to abriviate "DEI" the way they did with the "E" before the "I". Can't risk giving themselves away too obviously. It would expose the agenda too cleary.

Are we living in a cartoon world? This is really turning out like that one Family Guy meme with the skin color tone chart but with extra steps.
I think the only thing funnier than LeVar Burton finding out he had a white great, great, grandfather that fought for the Confederacy, would have been that he was also a slave owner or trader.
I love that LeVar Burton just found out that his great-granddaddy was a white man. He was shocked and almost started crying

I knew since 2021 things are about to get really bad. I'm an indie screenwriter and in 2021, I started getting nonsense feedback. Prior to that I always received actionable feedback but now I get literal moral lecturing telling me what I can or can't put into a screenplay. And I know those checklists unfortunately all too well. Decided to launch a channel instead and go my own way. There is no place in Hollywood for newcomers that only care about good storytelling.
MAchine ELves LMFAO
I know. There's certain types of characters that absolutely cannot be villains. Certain others that cannot have anything derogatory associated with them. Why? Because those sort of characters are angels, and/or persecuted; therefore all their actions are by definition righteous. Which leaves villainy to one demographic only. It's writing for children by children.
Have you tried any indie studios?
Equity, diversity, inclusion are all four letter words that used to mean something. Its also about control.
@@papalaz4444244it's a dope pilot. I had it optioned once but it never went into production. Still pitching in film markets.
Levar Burton's reaction to having a recent white ancestor is a perfect summary of the racism double standard. If I (a white dude) had a black great-grandparent I didn't know about and I reacted the way he did when I found out, I'd be labeled one of the worst r@cists of all time.
No one wants have a Morally corrupt Slave Owner as an Ancestor.
I saw that show. He dropped 99% imo.
Your comment is spot on! Levar Burton is a hateful person who is so blinded by his hate he cant see his own bigotry.
That clip was one of the most racist things I saw in my life. Unbelievable. But I guess this sad projection is part of a "consequence culture" of hate/self hate he seems so prompt to promote, so who cares... he's rotten inside and must be hard to live that way
Do you want to be a fly on the wall if he's forced to meet his white relatives. Will he choke before or after he meets them?... I have never laughed so much in my life..... He should have been asked afterwards "Are you are white?"
God bless me that was a lovely episode of the Nerdrotic... I feel a "Hail Mr Chan is in regulation order for an abrupt arms! May he be saluted in customary fashion!"
DEI is destroying every industry it infects. True talent is hard enough to attract and keep without DEI working against those goals. Actual talent doesn't even matter to HR departments anymore. It's all about the diversity of the talent. People with talent wind up leaving because they have no support from their diverse untalented coworkers. Talent first, diversity second or we will not be able to compete. It's that simple. I left an amazing job of 20 years at 53 because of the dysfunctionality that DEI creates in the workplace, and I will never go back.
There is one important lesson the "Entertainment" industry has taught me, that is, I no longer need them to be entertained. Their plan to phase themselves out is now complete.

My wife was recently hired by a US firm. Today she came to me and complained that she had to take Diversity training. I jokeingly said, that she didnt have to worry, she was diverse as a female. She looked deadly serious in the eyes and said, "that is not enough anymore". This is so stupid.
Nothing will ever be enough for insane people who's entire "morality" is built on shifting sands!
Do what I do with computer-based wankery: click play, zone out into another reality, click “complete.” And brain dump anything that managed to slip through.
Aye, I don't remember who the two guys are, but using different aliases they wrote and submitted a dozen academic papers on a variety of issues in one year. One of the papers that they submitted, something to do with sexism, posing as a white female writer, was rejected because "her" being a white woman speaking about women's issues is offensive to women of color.
That and their papers that did get accepted really exposed the incredibly dangerous mindset dominating academia.

@@wagner5424 thank you. I know I am also off on the specifics of the paper I mentioned of theirs but the point is still I valid, I think.
Grats on 1M subs! 🎉🎉🎉 You know, I can decide for myself what I like and want to watch. That being said, I am glad you're out there watching the crap I refuse to watch just so I know I'm right in my decision not to watch it. Thank you very much for lowering yourself to slog through the cesspool that is being offered to us. I wait for any gems you might find and recommend.
This video needs to blow up in social media. Get the word out
I'm Brazilian and I had no idea how this DEI thing was rooted in American institutions until I decided to do a clinical fellowship in the USA. Most high-end university and hospital websites are full of "DEI opportunities" - honestly, I would feel completely embarrassed trying to get a place through this kind of route, as if I were some kind of victim. I mean, when it comes to work, we should always look for the most qualified. It's not just Hollywood that will collapse, and that's kind of scary.
Not just the US. The RAF (airforce for my country - the UK) put instructions out to not hire white male pilots. In a country that is 87% white they refused to hire white males to boost DEI quotas and now we have a shortage of pilots.
Indeed. Life would go on without Hollywood. This ethical cancer is killing a lot of other institutions, and it's not going to end well.
No worries. White men still run Hollywood, Wall Street, Silicone Valley, Congress, NFL, NBA, MLB, etc. Any white man complaining about not "working" because of a minority is simply because their not good enough. Period. Full Stop.
I left North America and now live in Costa Rica, which is much more monolithic in its culture and I absolutely love it. What you describe is happening in so many different industries that it’s becoming a massive problem to productivity and output because we give opportunity to those who may not have earned or deserve it but solely based on skin colour. We are seeing the beginnings of widespread failure to levels we haven’t seen since the depression years. The entertainment industry is just the most visible example and luckily the stakes there are low because ultimately it is just entertainment but as these policies get put into other power structures, we’ll see the real damage done
Yes it is happening already.
Dang. Writer after writer, all of them never cared about the comics or their characters. No wonder it's all gone down hill since Infinity War.
How can the woke writers do a modern take on the material if they've never actually seen the material.
It's just corporate bullshit for "we do whatever we want."
since? where the fk were you the last decade?
How is it possible to sign off on billions of dollars and thousands of super talented people grinding away for years and "NOT READ THE COMICS???!!"
Like holy hell WTF
Idk why but the Elderscrolls overlay and music just had me cracking up😂😂 Well done, nice touch😂
You know, I started my college “career” studying to become a classical musician. There were a number of things that got in my way, but interestingly enough, none of those who stood against me in that field of study said it was my musical talent. In fact, they pointed to that being the only reason for tolerating me.
Well, anyways, I always got into arguments with the varying artistic people I was working with for concerts, plays, ballets, etc., where they were always angrily telling me that their positions existed to “educate” the poor masses. Sound familiar? Well, you can imagine the shock on their faces when I would tell them as politely as I could that our job was actually to inspire and entertain our audiences and we should be thankful for the opportunity.
Well, like I said above, I didn’t last in that field very long.
What instruments do you play, if I may ask?
Go independent it’s better that way although it will be harder it will pay off in the long run and your fans and supporters will have direct access to you
French horn. My freshman year was rough enough I didn’t go back to that private college (They have a reputation for their music and arts programs). I did some time in the military and then when I got out I did a more business related degree. I’ve played in some orchestras since then, but kept running into the same attitudes and that took the fun out of it. I only play for my own enjoyment now.
Back in medieval times you would have roaming bands of flagellants whipping themselves publicly to show how pious they are. This is the same thing.
Whipping yourself does take some dedication. But these pansies would cry if they saw the whips
Woah, woah, woah, at least they flayed themselves to be free from sin
The first part made me remember and interview on Ridley Scott, he said he didn't read a single book about Napoleon.
The red alert theme played by violins in the background is just 🤌
They choosed untalented, disrespectful, arrogant, activists. And specially! You can see in some of their faces they actually despise the comics. Who would have thought they would fail.
“I didn’t read the source material” “I don’t really like this stuff”… We know, some of us have 2 or more brain cells to rub together. Do something else.
You get a fail if you turn in a book report without reading the book. How the freak is this not the process for movie/TV making???
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Exactly!
This is what madness looks like
They focused so much on minority that the majority was left out.
Well said!
Story and writing is more important. Don't white wash or black wash characters
What made you imagine it was actually about inclusion?
It was about power. Just like good ol' Mao.
I’m a jobbing actor living in Vancouver, also known as Hollywood North. I’ve been at it for 25 yrs and, well, I’m a middle-aged white man. Still audition 2-3 times a week, but the roles are now all described as “open ethnicity”. I haven’t landed a job in over 3 yrs, despite a decent track record. My actor pals in the same demographic joke that it’s a waste of our time to audition since we will always lose out to the DEI mandates. Luckily for me I’ve gone into another field all together and don’t need to act to pay the bills.
LOL imagine all the years minorities suffered like you did for only 3 years.
No worries. White men still run media, Wall Street, Hollywood, NBA, NFL, Silicone Valley and the U.S. Congress. I think ya'll will be okay.
Make your own movie on your iPhone
There is exactly ZERO that is Hollywood about anything in Canada.
Hang in there, this madness won’t last forever. The overall consensus is that people are done with this blatant tokenism.
I think that they're well aware that they're losing vast amounts of money, and that they really don't care.
What happened after LeVar Burton's little monologue 17:00 lol I died!
Just saw The Godfather for the first time. No diversity hires and a phenomenal movie. I’m sure Hollywood would mess it up if they tried a movie like that today
There are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of movies like this
you can guarantee that robert duvalls character wouldn’t be a german mick today. he would def be a person of color. And anyone else that isn’t playing an ethnic italian in the movie
Any movie until 2012
You mean you think it's a good movie because there's no non "white" people in it. How thinly vield we are
They are bound to remake it for "modern audiences". In other words: female, black and gay.
The first part is exactly the reason why Hollywood is failing.
Hattie McDaniel is who failed Hollywood?
Shut up and entertain! Goddamn that's a great motto🙌
13:07 “…equal access to opportunities and resources…”
These are not the droids you’re looking for.
I'm a lighting technician in "the Biz". This is happening at our level as well. Kids with a year's experience against my 25 years, are being hired by fitting the criteria. The DEI questions at the key level are overt. As for the census, I was hounded about it consistently for a year. I didn't HAVE to, but they kept at me. Never did do it. But I think the Union is doing it, because it's under pressure from the the Studios and in competition with other markets to keep the work coming in.
Now you need to be DEI + years of experience?
@@n4ughty_knight Seems like DEI wins it. Having experience is a bonus
@@n4ughty_knight it doesn't happen. Dei candidates are there for dei not because they know how to do the job. They have regular folks for that. So their so called experience counts for naught.
I am a straight Hispanic male, at least my Hispanic condition gives me some advantage, I always do my best in everything I do, currently pursuing a career in nursing and working in a hospital as a nursing assistant, can tell you for sure that I wonder how many of my co workers got the job outside being hot and having a vagina.
Actually in my hospital there's a campaign to hire more male nurses as we are the only ones who don't run away when patients get violent or inappropriate (as in touching a female, tes very dirty bastards in a hospital bed). I guess things gotta go to hell.before they can realize they need us
"Less movie releases in 2024 than 2023." Maybe because all the new hires currently can't do the job? It logically takes a while to train everyone up.
17:50 It is amazing how comfortable LeVar Burton is being so openly ugly towards the idea of being mixed race. It never enters his mind that his attitude towards another race could be wrong.
So Glad he's a Washed Up Has-Been Nobody is Interested in Working With Anymore.
He’s just a vindictive and jealous piece of garbage, knowing that all his white co stars have had a better post TNG career than him.
Even the Nazis thought they were the good guys.
Every person we consider "evil" in history delude themselves into thinking they are doing the right thing.
What makes it all worse is the have examples from the past that it is not the right thing to do.
That’s what happens when modern media tells you that you literally can not be racist if you’re not white. Many black People specifically have adopted an ideology of black supremacy. In their mind, everything about being black and POCs in general are objectively smarter, more attractive, more creative, stronger, and just generally better than white people. Many of them don’t even consider us human. If you really listen to them, there’s quite a few BLM activists who call for genocide against white people. But who cares. They’re black, so they can’t be racist.
He looks mixed ffs.
I'm actually shocked and sad that so many adaptations are done by crews who don't know the original source material... man, that's disappointing.
I'm glad I don't work in film industry anymore.
Bye Hollywood. It’s been a nice ride, I’ll stick to old classics.
I’m in the UK, but I have a friend who works for a city in Maine. He can’t even employ the people that he needs for his department, because his DEI coordinator prevents him from selecting the qualified people. That’s ACTUAL insanity. So now, people in his town aren’t receiving the services they pay for, because the coordinator insists on an African being employed, who can’t speak any English, with absolutely no experience with that department. HR won’t approve the applicants that are actually already qualified. It’s wild.
LOL imagine how every one else felt when only Slave Master descendants got good jobs without any merit.
If that's the case, it's _incredibly_ illegal.
The problem, of course, is that any way of sorting applicants for aptitude that results in $CATEGORY disparity is, necessarily, $CATEGORist, no matter how obviously it tracks ability (for example, requiring firemen to have the strength to carry a person out of a burning building is sexist, because women are less likely to have that much physical strength.)
So, since any legitimately useful way of determining aptitude is 'illegitimate,' it's difficult to prove that someone was hired (or not) to make the numbers, and very hard to convince someone whose job is preventing $CATEGORist lawsuits to risk it by hiring for merit.
2% of Maine's population is black those jobs are going to be open a long time.
Remove HR
Horrible
Rot
The UK governments, going back to the 50's and 60's, are the ones that started this mess in the first place, and later the EU and the US. They are the first once that pushed this insane DEI policies beside the left wing in the US. The self destruction of the UK is one of the most unbelievable things to have happened to a nation. It's mind boggling.
That chrono trigger music is hitting, Guardia fair baby 4:31
As a writer, director and producer of live theatre and one of the few who ever made (barely) an actual living on nothing but talent, I can tell you that Hollywood's worst practice is sheer nepotism. If you're not connected, you are not in line for the few hoarded opportunities for which talent should be the sole qualification.
