Hollywood is one of the most unionized industries in the US.
There's a disconnect between the actors/writers and the producers. The producers just want money. They don't care otherwise, and aren't smart enough to realize how they're funding something that advocates against them. They do fuck with the script according to what they think focus groups will like. If someone brought them a Luigi script, the producers would tell them to stick in a lovable dog as a faithful companion to Luigi, and Brian Thompson's family would be shown eating DiGgiorno pizza for dinner because they got a product placement contract.
This is how stuff like DS9: Bar Association or Star Wars: Andor gets produced.

Yes.
Exactly!
Because superhero movies tend to have a solid ROI, which is why they get made: to make already rich dudes even richer. How do you plan to flesh out your seductresses Nazi assassin movie idea other than “she seduces Nazis and assassinates them” and still be a box office hit?
Find or be a good writer, get a decent script, and if you can convince enough movie executives that they’ll make bank off of it, your idea might stand a chance.
Why the hell is the text tilted? Am I going crazy?

Why would you ever want the text to be not tilted!?
Thanks now I can't unsee it.
Just tilt your phone—how hard is it, really?

For patriarchy to work it’s really really important women are taught to be afraid of sexuality explicitly so we don’t weaponize it against men because they’re insanely vulnerable to it
I know one Dutch girl. Can confirm, an absolute man-killer, deadly gorgeous and fierce as fuck.
