I mean, that’s actually an excellent way to prove their point.
No matter how terrible stuff like Rebel Moon may be, Netflix is succeeding by the only metric that matters; subscribers.
People talk about viewer counts a lot in the context of streaming while completely forgetting that, for the most part, they don’t actually matter.
For Netflix, the absolute perfect scenario is a world where everyone is subscribed, and no one actually watches anything.
If their subscriber count is going up then Netflix is succeeding, and they couldn’t give two shits if Rebel Moon is the worst movie ever made.
You’re definitely right, it’s just hilariously short-sighted. Continue to make unwatchable crap and the subscribers will bleed away, guaranteed
Still can’t believe Zach Snyder went from accomplishing the impossible in Watchmen to the absolute garbage that followed.
Netflix does not care about box office, they care about subscribers.
