If the recent strike is any indication, the creators see none of this money.
This is probably true, but it at least tells the people that run the studios that the people involved in that movie are profitable and should keep making movies.
The creators see money from cable residuals and digital and physical purchases but that's it
Okay, but what if you don’t have cable because it’s a massive rip off full of ads despite costing a fortune, or buy physical media?
I Pirate because of all the hoops that I have to jump through in order to access media. And even then, if you choose to legally stream etc then the creators are still getting fucked over while execs make fucking BANK. So no thanks, fuck that.
