You too can spend 15 years becoming a famous YouTuber and then spend a million dollars to make a movie set in one room and then spam your millions of followers daily to go see the movie to ensure it is successful even if it is about the same quality as a film student’s second film
Hollywood has been pretty bad for years but there is always new talent getting attention. Eva Victor is a good recent example of someone with a ton of talent who worked hard and got the attention they deserve. Sorry Baby was only a little more expensive than Iron Lung and only made 3 million total but is actually a good movie and exists on the merits of the people who made it.
If Mark uses his 30 million bounty from this student level film to fund indie projects of people who actually know how to write and act instead of just appeasing his own desires to be a writer and actor, we could have over a dozen sorry baby quality films made instead of a dozen more iron lung quality movies

Maybe my bar for Hollywood has become very low. The enshittification so bad that even this feels like a small win. Sad, isn’t it?
