i don’t get all your questions about distribution, is a films worth based on how many people see it?

no, but it was a single simple question at the Q&A that could've easily been answered with "I understand what you're asking but the simple answer is, I don't care if it's niche, I want to make what I want to make."

i think it’s just tiresome to hear questions like that from someone who’s supposed to be engaging with the film more critically rather than economically. especially when a lot of a less ‘specialised’ people would be asking those same questions that you did

I did engage with it critically, I sat there for an hour and a half and thought it was the worst POS movie I've ever seen. It has no artistic merit, it's plot is stolen from a George Saunders short story, the writing is terrible, acting is terrible, it's overly gross out and crass for no good reason. It's a horrible film. If you would've rather me ask like "how does it feel directly such an artistically bankrupt pile of trash" I could've done that, but that seemed mean. So I asked a simple question about how it would be distributed which I found to be more respectful and interesting. When you have nothing nice to say or ask, you find a new route.
