I still remember them chopping up shows as they fed them to DVD around 2001 when I had just seen the uncut originals on Nick at Nite five years earlier.

I thought Paramount was doing great after forcing Chiefs fans to buy a subscription to watch the playoff game?

Notice how every corporate statement from these companies is always full of the usual rah-rah nonsense, instead of just saying, “The basic problem is, our movies suck”

It’s up today and I’m almost back to even. If I get back to even, it’s sell, sell, sell...

I canceled Netflix over this. They always have to have two men kissing.

What Paramount could do is try to replicate it’s past successful business model by making fun, thoughtful or engaging movies like Raiders or Chinatown or The Godfather or Ferris Buellers Day Off..... nah! Just keep churning out topical woke propaganda.... Yeah. That’s the ticket. More preachy movies from the worst pack of perverts, druggies and arrogant egoists on Earth

They weren't even trying for quality. They simply opened the floodgates and money flowed into producing such crap.
