Just watched the trailer for Destroyer due to following Sebastian Stan blogs. First thoughts: Nicole Kidman looks like she is doing her damn acting thang in this movie! Go Nicole! I’m not even a fan like that, but she is Doing. It.

Second thought: Why does Seb so frequently play characters who die? I mean the ‘broken white boy joke’ was funny in bp, and there had been old posts about him being a pretty cryer, but good lord! When was the last time he played somebody who survived the whole movie/show and wasn’t steps-out-in-front-of-a-speeding-bus broken? Was it Gossip Girl?

The Rise of Netflix Competitors Has Pushed Consumers Back Toward Piracy

You know, it’s almost like that was the fucking problem in the first place you stupid bastards

the absolute need for every online video platform to become just like cable tv despite the fact their success comes from not being like cable tv is just overwhelming 

Netflix: Alright guys, we have a fantastic model going! Piracy is down, subscriptions are up, everyone’s making money with these contracts for your show’s streaming rights, and viewers are getting a ton of great content they enjoy. Everybody wins!

Morons: But what if we had our own streaming service just for our content?

Netflix: …I mean in-theory that would work at first, but if everyone’s content was suddenly 100% exclusive and you have to get a dozen subscriptions to a dozen proprietary streaming services just to watch three shows, that defeats a lot of the val–

Morons: And we could charge more than Netflix and Hulu too! We could make even more money!

Netflix: Well at a certain point you’re going to start charging more than people are willing to pay and you’ll start losing more money than you’ll gain. We’ve been doing this since 1997 so we have a pretty good idea of–

Morons: *create streaming sites for every single fucking studio that all charge more money than their content is worth, saturating the market with too many options, almost all of which have too little content to justify their price*

Consumers: Yeah fuck this

Morons: I knew streaming was a dead-end. It never could’ve worked

Netflix: But we were making money! It was working before you fuckers killed the goose laying golden eggs!

Morons: Yeah, but when we wanted more money, it stopped working, and we’re too good at business to make bad decisions, so clearly it was streaming itself that wasn’t working. It’s not our fault the goose couldn’t keep laying eggs after we ate it!

Netflix: What the fuck is wrong with you people

Everything is wrong with people

The free market?? Sabotaging itself??? More likely than you’d think

this is the exact reason why anime pirating is such an issue, theres too many subscription services and nearly every show is exclusive, its too expensive and takes too much effort to pay for multiple services just for a few shows
