Okay I don’t think I’ve ever seen a picture of Ted Sarandos before, do all guys named Ted just start looking like that after they reach a certain age? Also this is such a dumb fucking statement I hate you Ted Sarandos and also Ted Cruz for good measure.
Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos previously said that people want to “watch movies at home” rather than in theaters. “What is the consumer trying to tell us? That they’d like to watch movies at home, thank you. The studios and the theaters are duking it out over trying to preserve

Can’t help but feel that a core part of the campaign to further immiserate the working class is to remove every single opportunity to interact with other members of society. Between the obliteration of third spaces to things like this, feels like they want to keep us all siloed

Everyone is demanding that The Academy have some self respect and not tweet like this. Everybody but me, I didn’t have any respect for you, so please keep making an ass of yourself.

Ted Sarandos said this year that theatrical distribution is antiquated, and he’s in the process of buying one of the hallmarks of Hollywood since its inception, which ended up proving him wrong several times (Sinners, Superman, etc). We’re not being dramatic enough.
