We ALL missed out on that one. Fucking braindead execs. It’s the perfect example of how brainless executives are and were even before “AI”. They’re nothing but overpaid piles of shit.
The sooner humanity figures out a pay rate has NOTHING to do with quality of input, the better. Capitalism deserves to burn in hell, which is exactly where it was conceived.
Executives had nothing to do with the decision to skip a sequel. Think for a moment about which studio distributed the movie. It wasn’t Disney or Warners or Sony or any of the bigs. It was an independent production scraped together by a South African company that distributes Paramount movies in Africa. The movie didn’t make money and it nearly ended the company. The decision to not make a sequel is because the first one ate up all the money and the receipts are enough for banks and investors to say “pass” on any new ideas.
Yeah so I’m just going to stop you cuz you’re kind of full of shit. The studio insisted that it be a 3D movie and they hardly marketed it and when it was marketed it was marketed as Dredd 3D. It was released during a lull when a lot of trash 3D releases were being made. They essentially doomed the theater turnout by tacking on 3D at the end which made people assume it was just going to be a shitty cash grab.
Once people got past that and actually started watching it, it became insanely popular after its theatrical run.
I’m sure the original production company didn’t get much of any of the profits from after the theatrical run but the reason it almost ruined the company WAS because the studio forced decisions on to the production company that ended up killing their business.
Also why would anyone ever insist that executives didn’t fuck something up? That’s their entire job. They do a half assed job, take all the money they can, then bail. Then new executives are expected to clean up the mess, but guess what they do? The only thing executives know how to do they pillage and rape fuck the employees over more than the last c suite did and then bail.
But more importantly the buck stops somewhere. It stops with the CEO and the executives. Any failure is on them. Any success is mostly on the employees and possibly related to their guidance. A well running machine can run for a very long time without requiring interference.
If a well running machine suddenly runs into issues it’s always because of the leadership/captain
With exception to a sequel to Dredd.
And in today’s environment a movie like that would slap. Let’s hit him up and we’ll go bully some Execs for Karl.
Bully for us!
