Idk if economics was the right flair but I don’t know how it’s economically feasible for big studios to lose money on a lot of films with huge budgets and to make them so bad.
In: Economics
Because studio heads are totally detached from Average Joe and what the later wants to see, therefore the boards rely on consultation companies and such to tell them what to do.
IMO here is the problem: If a studio hires people who actually don’t know or actively dismiss the Average Joes taste and rather push for something they personally enjoy, you end up with productions bombing.
The joke however goes full circle if these people then manage to convince studio heads that they are not to blame, but the audience is plain unreasonable, hateful, bigoted, sexist, racist, whatever to cherish these „brilliant“ productions.
