This Is What I Think - Tumblr Posts
Picture a cake. Even if you don't really like cake, just picture your favorite flavor of cake. Now, picture your favorite frosting. Pretend it's the most amazing frosting in the world. You absolutely love it. When you put your favorite cake flavor together with the most impeccable arrangement of the frosting, it's the best cake in the entire world. But here's the thing. The frosting, no matter how amazing and delicious, is always going to be lacking something without the cake. The cake is the backbone of the confection. If the cake is terrible, dry, and disgusting, the frosting is going to suffer because of this. If the cake is made with crappy ingredients and hastily slopped together because of a time crunch, it's not going to be a good cake. And maybe that's not the baker's fault, but the people telling the bakers to cut costs and bake faster. And maybe the people in charge are trying to use more and more machines so that the cake is mass-produced...but not nearly as good as the phenomenal cake that the baker could make with the proper ingredients and time.
Now replace the word cake with the word script.
The writers are the backbone of a show or movie. No matter how good the acting, CGI, special effects, music, etc. are, it's going to be not as good because of the lack of a good script.
The writers are quite literally the reason that these big movie corporations are able to make money. And, as an actor myself, I can say firsthand that crappy scripts are the worst to act with, because it's hard to connect with the characters and phrases when it's just not flowing properly or has depth.
Don't replace writers with AI. Don't pay your writers minimum wage.
They are the reason that TV shows and movies are good.
Actors, CGI artists, composers, set designers, costume designers, we are the frosting. We build off what the writers have made.
Appreciate writers.
Naming movies after completely unrelated songs is equivalent to naming fics after random lyrics from songs
