We don’t love modern slavery but we’d rather have a seat at the table.

see the problem is that in general A24 fans aren't your typical moving going fans. They're more in the "know" then the average movie goer so regardless of simply wanting to "sit at the table" this is going to backfire on them.
If they were like Paramount or Universal Studios no one would give a rats ass. but being who they are and who they generally market to and who goes and watches their films...this will bite them in the ass.
Spot on. I would love to know what the intersection between A24 geeks and Mubi subscribers is.
Narrator: it's a circle
Money is not a table.
It absolutely can be.
You only need to stack it high enough...
Now I want to build an epoxy table with cash embedded in it.
I hear you can get currency from a number of African nations for basically nothing... Sounds like a fun project, actually. I suggest starting with an epoxy pour over a surface first, though. Solid pours of only epoxy are challenging AF, especially w/ embedded objects xor effects. 🫡🤓🤘🏼
So can human bodies, but it doesn't mean they should be used as one.
Is that what you want from A24 ? Them to have tables made of un-usable money ? No more movie production just IKEA but for rich dipshits ?
A24 branded furniture would sell.
Especially if made from degloved cadavers.
Cards Against Humanity might even collab! 🤣
They would definitely fly to Epstein island to have a seat at the table.
And they're welcome to sit at the table. They just shouldn't expect their viewers to back them. They shouldn't be surprised the viewers they marketed to aren't fans of AI.
Backrooms and The Lobster are weird (great, but weird) artsy films made with care. The exact opposite of what you want AI touching in any way shape or form.
Them saying they're going to even look at AI tools screams selling out and watering themselves down.
This tells me they have never truly understood nor cared much about their audience.
That is the opposite of logic. You didn't used to speak, but you changed, I assume?
I don’t know how to reply to this.
Well, I don't speak whale, so you're doing better than most.
In a Nazi restaurant? Pfft. You know that makes you one of them right, A24? 🙄
Then they should expect empty seats in their screenings.
