The problem is the short time windows in theaters and yeah it was a good movie. The fact it was a trump analog hurt it and Paterson is a great actor fuck twilight but the Batman was a great movie and the penguin is a masterpiece of television.
Black bag didn't get any advertising. The problem is studios have trained their audience to expect slop then they put out a few good original movies for a short time window then point at it and say see audiences don't want original films.
-- guy that watches original movies every weekend in the theater
Also studios don't want original movies they want shit that they can make toys for or tie-ins with McDonald's. They also don't want directors with their own vision messing up their synergy with their marketing partners. They want people to put out content not art.
