#that those people weren't loyal enough or they are tragic heroes bc they died doing what they love

Hey ink? Your tags rock and I would much rather see your version of the Dino trilogy

The tags:

this is specifically due to my rage and undying hatred of megacorporation disney. and specifically bc i think there COULD have been a really good series of new dinosaur island t rex movies if they had just fucking gone the distance stopped with the fucking bad CGI and made the whole thing about late-stage capitalism do you wanna know what would ACTUALLY sell and work on the big screen more than a trex screaming in front of a volcano (u absolute jerkweeds)? so they've rebuilt the island and the park. but the narrative is 100% that nobody wants to fucking work there and it feels AT BEST cult-like and insular. nobody is paid well for this at EVERY possible place they are cutting corners. the dinosaurs might have higher walls but the handlers are paid 5.34 an hour due to island laws. the corporation has RFID tags in their costumes which they are forced to wear the employees are not allowed to drink water in 120 degree heat bc it would be upsetting to guests u know real things i experienced working for disney (but it was 8.90) anyway it turns out the park CEO knew the risks and just didnt care bc bottom line BAYBEE. it would be so much more sobering and fucking GOOD if it was like. scientists being like ''i am an environmental scientist'' ''after the epa was slashed this is literally the only job i could find. i literally HAD to take it or i couldn't feed my family.'' ''i hate what i do. i am disgusted by it. i literally CANNOT STOP because the company also charges us 400 dollars a week to live here'' the dinosaurs escape EARLY in my movie. like minute 45. and then... 1 week later the park reopens. half the staff are missing. they're just fucking gone. it doesn't matter tho the company tells everyone to work 2x as hard that those people weren't loyal enough or they are tragic heroes bc they died doing what they love and the movie isn't like ''wow dinosaurs scary!!!'' it's... that in a global fucking pandemic disney kept sacrificing employees. but it'll be disguised bc the pandemic will be dinosaurs. this my beloved is what we call an ALLEGORY but unfortunately certain companies have never heard of them allegories require critical thinking and that doesn't test well with audiences

i hate how commodity and capitalism has ruined so much storytelling . i hate how sequels and prequels and whatever else all ring like merch sales; i hate that i as an author have to include any social media following i have as a marketable trait; i hate that everything feels like a xerox of a copy of a dream of a memory.

i hate that my nostalgia has been turned into profit. i hate that companies fear consumer backlash so no real commentary may be made; i hate that companies care more about quantity over quality. i hate that so many artists and creators are being overworked to the point of complete collapse rather than being allowed to tell the story their way. i hate that every point of representation has to be fought for. i hate it i want us all to go back to living in a cave .

when you sit with friends over a bonfire and the night is getting long and people start telling this slow, almost hypnotic story - in this quiet voice, like they don't expect you to listen while they say the most fucked up shit you've ever heard - that is storytelling. who cares if the punchline is car hand hook door. storytelling has always been about community, about us all sitting in the dark, choosing to fill the silence while the last embers are dying. we forgot that storytelling is spellwork. hallucinating together, our breaths held, waiting for the ending we already knew was coming.
