  1. We all see the last 20 years, but the social engineering in the art form stretches back 60 years or more. Not all of it was bad. "In the Heat of the Night" ("My name is Mr. Tibbs") was good stuff. A lot of racial equality stuff was pushed ahead of the rest of society. It wasn't all bad. I thought a lot of it was good. But somehow, "liberal" hitched its wagon to crazier and crazier causes, fueled by professional grievance grifters.

  2. It was great until the money men decided to "compel behavior" with ESG.

  3. Good Job, Due Dissidence team. You're still deluded about economics and what's bestest for the mostest, but you mean well.

  4. Keaton reminds me of me, eagerly buying the extended version of the DVD to get the behind-the-scenes. I think that really took off after Star Wars, but movies about the movie added to the movie goes back at least as far as Blazing Saddles on VCR. I think that those movies about the movies made directors much more visible and actors and directors seemed to take themselves more and more seriously. Not only is the behind-the-scenes documentary now obligatory, it's also at your fingertips with a 5-second google search. You can find all kinds of out-takes and actor/director commentaries. It was a big deal, for a while, but not so much, any more.

  5.  @halloola3636  Music has become a middle-class occupation. It took a real hit during COVID, but you'd be surprised at how much good music there is that's having no problems supporting itself. None of it has any connection to corporate record labels. Media is massive, but mass media is dying. You need a mass media to create a sensation like the The Beatles. EVERYone either watched Ed Sullivan or heard everyone around them talking about Ed Sullivan. EVERYone saw the latest movie billboards at the local theater and talked about them. They were events. They are events, no longer. I'm old enough to remember people camping out in line to go see Star Wars and how moviegoers breathlessly reported they were seeing it for the 9th time.
