    Watch out, Netflix. The days of needing a massive studio budget to be a director are officially over. We’ve reached the point where a 12-year-old can literally produce a blockbuster from their bedroom. This is going to turn the entire industry upside down, and I'm absolutely here for it. These are just the first steps—I seriously can't wait to see what drops next. Keep 'em coming.

    Amazing. The anti-doomer movie most folks didnt know they needed.
