BBC: 荷里活嘅大熱潮已過

Michael Fortin was at the heart of Hollywood’s golden age of streaming.

The actor and aerial cinematographer turned his hobby of flying drones into a profitable business in 2012 just as the streaming wars were taking off. For a decade, he was flying high above film sets, creating sleek aerial shots for movies and TV shows on Netflix, Amazon and Disney.

Now he’s on the verge of becoming homeless - again. He was evicted from the Huntington Beach home he shared with his wife and two young children and now is being booted from the Las Vegas apartment they moved to because they could no longer afford to live in Southern California.

“We were saving to buy a house, we had money, we had done things the right way,” he says. “Two years ago, I didn't worry about going out to dinner with my wife and kids and spending 200 bucks."

“Now I worry about going out and spending $5 on a value meal at McDonald's.”

For over a decade, business was booming in Hollywood, with studios battling to catch up to new companies like Netflix and Hulu. But the good times ground to a halt in May 2023, when Hollywood’s writers went on strike.

The strikes lasted multiple months and marked the first time since the 1960s that both writers and actors joined forces - effectively shutting down Hollywood production. But rather than roaring back, in the one year since the strikes ended, production has fizzled.

Projects have been cancelled and production was cut across the city as jobs have dried up, with layoffs at many studios - most recently at Paramount. It had a second round of layoffs this week, as the storied movie company moves to cut 15% of its workforce ahead of a merger with the production company Skydance.

動漫衰落俾日漫頂上，整咁多垃圾終於有後果

繼續DEI 啦
之後可以見證所有娛樂事業都東升西降

左膠繼續玩啦，選賀雞玩爛埋成個美國啦

漫畫改編應該係另一個範疇, 美漫拍做電影可以好成功, 日漫真人版通常都唔work

遲啲仲有件勁惡頂嘅白雪公主，迪士尼成名之作都要倒米

彈開啦東升

問題係依家好多美漫真人電影都炒晒，幾乎套套虧蝕

hollywood左膠化先係最大原因

所謂東升會係韓國電影

韓國出得嗰幾套高質電影就講到超越荷里活

一來啦，二來唔識寫故事，好多套junk

美漫一向都係果幾個IP
日漫從來無被爬過頭

動畫電影, 美國仲係贏到開巷

近呢戰爭片紅左一段時間, 動作片又紅左一段時間, 科幻片, 愛情喜劇
而漫改電影都紅左十幾年, 退熱度係正常不過既事

而家荷里活係要搵到呢個時間點既meta, 先至可以再重新站起來

美漫全部都係英雄
日漫天馬行空乜9都有

最緊要政治正確

bbc熱潮

玩政確搞爛哂個party
唔好以為之後改返啲人會返返嚟睇
好多時中間冇睇兩集
之後多數人都唔會興趣追返了

係左膠當道冇人想睇政治正確

拎埋奧斯卡獎喎，仲有架仔哥斯拉拎技術奧斯卡獎
起碼亞洲電影工業喺西方多人留意左

黑人荷里活

一係DEI

二係行業整體競爭少左，
以前好多公司出錢搶內容，搶人

可以睇下當年標準石油解體前
又係果種日不落財報

因為而家大家娛樂種類多左
電影冇以前咁多人睇

劇本已經自我審查 要有女權，LBGT,黑人，多元化…

搵演員 唔係適合演員 都係上面個堆野

一套戲成功就拍2，3，4集拍到爛為止

講就荷里活都係個幾間電影公司 講錯，做錯一樣野就封殺

依家的荷里活咪咁
