I know this is concerning for the fans but this is a fairly common evolution with all these indie distributors. Their rise is similar to Miramax in the 80s and they went on to release some of their best films the following decade once they had funding.
Let's hope A24 sticks with the Daniels like Weinstein stuck with Tarantino
It is a hope, but not one connected to any actual reality I fear.
There wasn't any special clause about "more action movies" in the Miramax scenario, and also the movie market was vastly different in the 1990s compared to now. In the 1990s there was a lot more diversification of blockbuster genres, allowing for the particular type of blockbusters they managed to produce then, but that market is basically all gone now.
