Kinda confused here as "The Irishman"
is playing in theaters. Just in an extremely limited capacity.
Dude couldn't get the movie funded by conventional means though, which is why it's produced by Netflix.
Which is whatever, it's not unheard of.
Anyway, in the last month or so he's said:
1. Summer block buster type movies are pushing "real movies" out of the theater.
2. Marvel/Marvel type/comic movies shouldn't be in theaters.
3. He couldn't get his latest movie funded so he took it to Netflix and it'll only be in a few theaters.
And you seriously think those three things are completely unrelated?
It's like....c'mon man. Cut the bullshyt out.
