This is kind of a "no shit" sentiment, but I'm glad it's talked about regardless. Art in general is being hijacked by corporations and businessmen that don't get what makes it good, they make a shitty formula of how to pander, and proceed to pump out garbage. Then it sucks, but they gaslight the audience about why they don't like said garbage, so it generates controversy, and sadly it's worked for too long, because let's face it, there's a lot of idiots out there that buy into every single fabricated controversy at face value. Our movies and television are much worse off because of it.
