    It sucks for consumers…

    It sucks for writers…

    It sucks for actors…

    It sucks for vfx workers…

    And the CEOs running the companies and making all the money claims it sucks for them too because after their last couple years of shit decisions, they’re making slightly less money.

    So maybe those shareholders should re-evaulte who their CEOs are?

    Maybe get rid of the people who killed the Golden Goose because they wanted to eat it?
