    Hmm I agree, I didn’t read it as transphobic at all. I agree that movies should be produced on the merit of the script alone, but the fact is that they haven’t been in the past. Hopefully one day programs like these won’t be necessary.

      Doubt they will have meaningful impact. All that said, drop a look at A24 pictures. They have give complete creative rights to the directors. Sometimes this results in awesome movies, sometimes in flops, but at least they are approaching this from an artistic point of view and not just like another investment.

        Oh yeah I love A24. As much as a Marvel nerd as I am, the best movies don’t come from Hollywood these days.

        (Not interested in talking about Marvel in this thread though, just using them as an example of a thing I do like from Hollywood. I’m aware they’ve been shitting the bed on a few projects the past few years but I like it anyway)

          Completely agree. At least most of them don’t come from Hollywood.
