Re: The Strike & Content Creation

Hey all. Since the SGA has joined the WGA in striking there has been a lot of conflicting new and information about what is or is not going to be crossing the picket line. Yes, I have read all the FAQs, but personally, none of the wording makes me feel confident. That coupled with the misinformation being spread online and it has become a massive problem. So, I'm making the decision to table the two videos I was working on for this month that are pop culture centric. One was going to be about South Park and the other about the impact of Sai...

How 'The Last Duel' Failed Its Heroine

(or) Why The Last Duel Sucks?Also, I just realized that Ridley Scott directed all the Adam Driver "sex scenes" in 2021.In 2021 director Ridley Scott released two films House of Gucci and The Last Duel. Neither film performed spectacularly well, but while House of Gucci was always expected to live or die on the backs of Lady Gaga fans—The Last Duel grossing only 30 million against a budget of 100 million, was treated (along with the failure of The Northman in 2022) as an example of how audiences don't support "adult" movies...
