Male directors can snag promising studio features from a well-reviewed flop, but female directors generally cannot.
. It's that the audiences who have no interest in those tentpoles/event movies are staying home instead of seeking out a different kind of movie. The general moviegoing audience that once saw both the big movies and the smaller movies has now turned to various at-home options for their filmed entertainment needs. They see the biggest stuff in theaters, and everything else either waits for post-theatrical or gets ignored in favor of the next Netflix binge.
We've seen this over the last four years, as the emergence of Netflix, Hulu and Amazon as major forces for quality, adult-skewing, character-driven television shows has completely filled the vacuum that Hollywood left open in order to dedicate itself almost exclusively to four-quadrant global franchise fare.
That's not to say streaming services are the villains or that audiences can be blamed for preferring to watch a movie at home for little-to-no money on a decent sound system and decent HDTV either right when it releases on streaming or when it debuts in post-theatrical 80-120 days after theaters. But when you don't see the kinds of movies you want Hollywood to make when those movies play in theaters, you can't blame Hollywood for no longer making those kinds of movies for theaters.

Gallant Amazon User Heroically Defends 'Fringe' Season 2 Box Set From Negative ReviewersTEMPE, AZ—Doughty and lionhearted Amazon.com reviewer Jason Lydon, 24, leapt to the defense of the Fringe season two box set Friday, protecting the Fox television series from the brutal comments and cutthroat low ratings of its gravest detractors. “Don’t listen to Agerybay09—Peter’s emotional arc with his father works perfectly with the development of both universes,” the valorous Lydon wrote, staving off assault after assault with the rapier-thrust of each word. “What are these clueless people talking about??

That’s what makes this show so brilliant and—I don’t care what batgirl_91 says—the only worthy successor to Lost The courageous Amazon user then went on to act as a human shield against falsehood on the “What can you do about hardened brown sugar?” Yahoo!
