“It’s so hard to get movies made, and in these big movies that get made — and it’s even starting to happen with the little ones, which is what’s really freaking me out — decisions are being made by committees, and art does not do well when it’s made by committee,” she added. “Films are made by a filmmaker and a team of artists around them. You cannot make art based on numbers and algorithms. My feeling has been for a long time that audiences are extremely smart, and executives have started to believe that they’re not. Audiences will always be able to sniff out bullshit. Even if films start to be made with AI, humans aren’t going to fucking want to see those.”

The real lesson here is never be in a Sony superhero movie. 9 times out of 10 they fuck it up.

But when they get it right they really get it right. The whole Miles Morales storyline came out of no where and fucking exploded.

In my mind it was great because it was an animation and execs think anime is dumb, so they won't meddle with it. If they ever make a live action Miles Morales story it's going to suck.

They saw the success and decided to meddle with the second one. Which is why they absolutely had to spend a whole minute on the spiderman pointing meme.

It's also by the Lego Movie guys who Sony doesn't want to piss off because they really don't have any other hot creators in their corner anymore.
