I think Hollywood is just turning out garbage with the same actors who give awards to eachother. The solution is not to turn out even worse garbage it’s to turn out stories people want to watch with new fresh voices and faces

That's never going to happen with Hollywood. We need to just let the Los Angeles-based movie industry die so that hopefully we'll be able to get media created outside of that nepotistic circle-jerk of a culture.
