    If I were an actor in today’s age, I would legitimately rethink ever working with WB at this point. Hell, even if I were a PA. This goes to show that if you make something with WB, it likely won’t come out.

      You get paid the same anyway if they actually film it right? Like as a PA I mean. Obviously it’s different if you get royalties

        Yeah but spending months of your life working on something for it to never be seen by people really sucks. Even if you get paid. You make a thing, you are proud of the thing and then the thing gets put in a box and no one else ever gets to enjoy that thing. Capitalism sucks

          While that’s all true, there are a lot of productions where I assume basically nobody involved is actually proud of the thing they are trying to create. Like all those soulless cash grab movies that Illumination pumps out. I figure basically everyone there is just trying to collect a paycheck
