Episode 23: Easy Streaming, Difficult Movies

Published: March 26, 2018, midnight

On this episode, Carter spoke with regular Crossfader contributor Joseph Simpson to discuss his recent feature on Crossfader called "The Annihilation of Netflix." We discussed how streaming platforms seem to be dealing the final death-blow to the movie theater industry as we've known it, and try to parse how much this is the responsibility of movie-goers, and how much blame remains with the studios that fail to give interesting filmmakers the opportunities they deserve.
