Well sure when you slop everything together as “content” who cares?

No, I most definitely prefer professionally made productions.

Of course they do. People may scroll and watch it, but nobody is going to actually *pay* for amateur crap.

Tubi is great for people like me that love so bad their good movies or just stuff thats so obscure that no where else has it. They have become the perfect app for that type of content.

It’s fine, just let them learn the lessons themselves. I have plenty of back catalogued stuff to get through.

I speak for many of us when I say we really do care.

I’d say that’s broadly true in that I will watch a reel, a polished YouTube video, and a Hollywood movie in the same day.. but that doesn’t mean i want tiktok style shorts on tubi

Just add the word “Dumb” in before “Audiences” and he’s genuinely correct.

Tubi is intentionally a mash of everything though.
Sure you might have the same viewer in one week watching Chive or whatever that user generated channel is called these days, then an actual movie, then leaving a comedy FAST channel on, but those are different moods and not really distinguishable from someone who 40 years ago would be equally capable of going to a theater and watching America’s Funniest Home Videos.
I don’t see how you can conclude someone doesn’t care about 1 thing just because they do several things.

Is he talking about mainstream movies or porn?

I prefer not shit entertainment.

I stalled Tubi and it immediately served me up some softcore porn. Was pleasantly surprised.

YouTube probably proves this true, but Tubi is supposed to be an organized linear TV type of service. I remember running into some cut up and edited streamer content on either Tubi or Pluto and it seemed so out of place based on the level of quality.

Yes, yes we do.

If it’s somewhere I can view stuff for free like tubi I’d prefer professional stuff but yeah at the end of the day I don’t care too much.
If I was paying a subscription I’d be more discerning.

I see a lot of shills for SAG and WGA in the comments as if they care what you say about them.
If you turn on The Wizard of Oz do you say, “No, no, I can’t watch this! I see the strings on the flying monkeys!!!!”
Or if you’re watching a 90s sitcom do you turn it off in disgust if you see a boom mic or the living room set cut off in one frame?
No, you don’t.
Story is what matters and I want the industry to survive so we keep seeing good stories. I don’t care if AI is used for backgrounds or settings or stadium scenes if it helps shows get renewed.

Tubi movies are the worst 😆

I guess that’s true to an extent. If it’s great I don’t care. It just usually tends to only be great if it’s made by professionals.

Obviously you can’t generalize everyone here, but he’s not completely out to lunch (at least based off this one quote taken out of context lol). YouTube is proof that many people don’t care where the content is coming from. As long as it’s engaging and worth watching. And with how accessible professional equipment is nowadays, you can make “professional” looking content pretty easily.
But again, it’s a quote out of context. The whole article isn’t really that contentious.

Hahahah. No.

Lmao. I stopped watching anything suggested by the algo after it recommended a “horror anthology” series that was like something a group of junior high kids would’ve made at a sleepover.

My wife opens Tubi and puts it on the America Test Kitchen channel and that’s it.

This is the same service that let a dude upload his unlicensed AI dub of a old kids anime on their platform so this doesn’t surprise me in the slightest.
Devilofchaos108070 on
I definitely care. You can very much almost always tell what’s done by pros and what’s not

I think Tubi audiences don’t care but audiences care.
Bionic_Bromando on
Yeah the popularity of youtubers and social media is testament to that. Even the biggest, highest budget channels look at best like low-tier reality TV
