Yeah I definitely agree that "high art" is stifled, but that's always been the case from what I've seen. It may be more nowadays, but theaters always went towards the money makers. I think there's more high art out there than ever, but of course it's hard to find.

The amount of stifling is at levels we haven't seen since vertical integration laws were passed unfortunately. But we're slowly coming out of it now thanks to the popularity of studios like A24! Barbie was a big deal, too.

The only two top-grossing movies in the past 25 years that weren't built off an existing IP have been American Sniper (2014) and Avatar (2009). If you look at the prior 25 years, it's almost the exact opposite

studios like A24!

Oh my favorite studio ever. I'm worried about their pivot to more mainstream stuff they announced though.

Me, too. Hopefully they continue to produce the stuff they became famous for alongside the bigger films

I really hope so. Thanks for the civil and enlightening conversation. I enjoyed it!
