    Clips is a TikTok-like vertical video stream where users can scroll through excerpts from Netflix series, films, and specials, as well as trailers for upcoming titles.

      Disney+ has “Verts”. It’s fucking ridiculous.

      It’s wild to watch these companies chase after one another with no thought. Just “TikTok is popular! Can we be TikTok?!?!???”

      You have a product. Do that product well. Fuck!

        CEOs are really herd animals, always looking what the other guy is doing and living in a continuous fear of missing out the next big thing. It sure doesn’t help with shareholders breathing down their neck pushing for short term profit and growth.

        I mean, I agree, but at the same time you’ve got to be trying to keep up or your business dies. Like, if blockbuster has tried to compete with Netflix instead of ignoring it, we’d still have blockbuster

          Block buster didn’t have ads turning the movie, just some trailers you could skip. Plus when I went to block buster we’d find something(s) and go home an watch it. Not this scroll through a mountain of the same crap in different categories just to maybe find something after a much longer period of time.

          Fuck we had it good with blockbuster.
