women get more scrutiny in everything. everything. kamala harris is currently being protested about palestine on a book tour.
Everyone who isn’t a straight white man gets an absurd amount of scrutiny in film spaces. They could feed the homeless and end the wars and some weirdo would make 17 clickbait videos endlessly going on about how that’s bad for the economy and thus we should hate that person.
Now come on, OP, let’s critically think: why do you think they do? (Starts with misog…) 😢
Unfortunately, as with almost all areas of life, yes they do.
Chloe Zhao is a hack for putting Amazon propaganda in her boring ass movie that was carried by Francis McDormand, not for carefully navigating the financial tightrope of Hollywood.
please mods can you hit me with a “hack loser wench” flair 🙏
This isn’t film Twitter or at least 100% but just straight up culture wars manosphere shit.
Maybe, but we also are capable of sucking enough to need to improve our craft, soooo…..
I mean yeah
I’ve defended Chloe Zhao since Eternals, I’ll keep defending her.
yes. I see male directors being worshipped like gods all the time, meanwhile a female director doesn’t even need to do something wrong to be dismissed or not included at all.
male critics are mostly white men & directors are mostly men, same shit different day.
I’ll defend Chloe Zhao & Celine Song, but Emerald Fennell, eh…
Yeah. Women get more scrutiny than men in pretty much every setting
film culture is so heavily built around white male glorification that it matters not what they create nor how abysmal their messaging truly is. this weekend i watched one battle after another and i was shocked at how bad it was, yet the lauding it’s receiving is as if no one has ever made a film before
chloe zhao’s full quote was this:

some film twitter users were being weird about variety’s tweet. she basically says she’s not gonna push for more money bc she hates the feeling of owing people, so she’ll make her films within the budgets of whatever companies are comfortable giving her
also let’s not act like emerald fennell is facing the amount of criticism celine and chloe are. emerald being rightfully called out for whitewashing is not the same as the racism those two women are facing
Of course. But Twitter is also a nazi cesspool of blue checkmark bootlicking engagement baiters so take their thoughts with little care
