Cuties (Dis)respect Thread: Now on Netflix!

[Typhonis]

So what happens when management is called to the floor to explain to said shareholders where the money is?

 

[The Name of Love]

I don't think the shareholders run a company. I think the managers are.

Exactly. They are shareholders, not owners - if their earnings start falling too much, they're much likelier to bail out and buy shares on something else than try to fix things - and you need owners to keep management in line.

The shareholders are people who likely are entirely out of touch with what is actually going on in the company. So long as the quarterly profit margins aren’t awful, they aren’t going to question the company.

Management, HR, and the like is where Bongoism is usually most infectious. They set the actual policies when it comes to content and the direction of the company.

What it will support and what it won’t.

The fact Netflix wanted to add Bongoism to(and I haven’t looked into it) some niche fantasy show with well designed puppets-means they aren’t interested in money, or even concentrating their ideological efforts on the big projects. No they demand all content of theirs(or at least that which they sponsor and distribute) promote their political and social aims.

Refuse? Sorry we’ll have to terminate our relationship with you, show is canceled.

It's almost as if it's not really about the personal bottom line for these people so much as it is a moral crusade.

Here’s one thing to think about

There are stuff people like hoarding more than money, it maybe worthless, but they want it

Social cred in the form of likes and tweets and retwets from some weirdoes online and what turns out to only be a very small but vocal part of the West that doesn’t really spend much time and money on said hobby

Is worth more than money to more idealogical idiots

Supposedly the Board of Directors are installed by the votes of the Shareholders, I think it doesn’t help if the shareholders themselves don’t really do much research into these guys and they just so happen to have some PHD and stuff to make them sound like experts

The issue is that the movie is not American, and the people involved are not American.

Even though Europeans are more sexual and casual with nudity, I'm pretty sure even the average guy from France or elsewhere would feel disturbed and NOT want to be known as one of the actors here

For all of you going on about how Netflix is crashing. Have you per chance taken a look at their YTD share price? It was €290 in January. It's €417 today. That doesn't look like failing to me.

 

[Shipmaster Sane]

If the people making this film actually made it for the reasons they've laid out, and weren't just making excuses so they could sexualize little girls on camera, why didn't they just make an animated film? That way, they could have avoided much of the controversy involved in filming actual little girls doing this stuff.

Lolis twerking would still be retarded and disgusting it just wouldn't involve the victimization of children to produce.

Maybe getting rid of that expensive puppet show boosted the budget and value?

You cant distribute illegal content in america just because it was made by someone else, somewhere else.

Of course

What I am saying is they can get onto Netflix for it.
They cant go after the creators of it as easily

Won't help them given people are canceling Netflix subscriptions. That's long term profits they are loosing.


Also Netflix went from $556.55 and fell to $473.08. Ouch.

That's the all-time high of this year. During the past 6 months the stock has averaged around €400. If we go back exactly a year it was €243. Five years ago it was around €90. We can talk about Netflix's future when it's back there. There aren't millions of people cancelling their subscriptions because of Cuties, just like Disney isn't going broke just because some execs follow the school of woke. These things have way too much inertia to be killed by something as insubstantial as this. I'd really welcome it if people on our side of the argument wouldn't fall for the same click-baity articles that the left falls for.

Especially with the new Jurrasic park show for kids, the future RE movie/series coming to it. People heavily invested in Umbreella academy..

If it's any consolation, streaming services like Netflix are already poised to be having a difficult time during the coming years, thanks to an oversatuation of the streaming market. Things like the Cuties controversy might be enough to ensure that they're not one of the last ones standing when the market recorrects, assuming that Netflix continues along the path of promoting ideological extremist garbage over actual content people want.

It's done.
