Good news
Mubi out here being the patron saint of quality streaming. Like hosting incredible lost films like THE FALL
I’m currently subscribed because I wanted to watch Jim Jarmusch’s latest film but I find little else of interest on there that I haven’t already seen.
They offered three months for $3 to juke the stats. Wait and see how few of those subs stay on.
What was the PR scandal?
“Sequoia Capital came on board as an investor, which proved to be a controversial move for Mubi’s left-leaning subscribers, filmmakers and employees. Their beef with Sequoia was that it also backed startups that work with Israel’s military, which at a time when some critics alleged a genocide was taking place in Gaza was, for some, an unacceptable association.”
What a weird fucking paragraph and framing of genocide.
Fuck variety for publishing this trash.

For context, AMC+ has 10.5M subscribers. Shudder has 1M.
