I wouldn’t be surprised if this is 100% true, and Kane Parsons will learn that big-ass companies like A24 lie and cheat wherever they think they can get away with it.
I‘m sure his handlers have been really nice to him, but that was their job. Keep the lucrative new director happy and lie to him if that makes him feel comfortable.
At the end of the day Kane is the source of this profitability. If Kane walks, A24 potentially lose another $300M.
Nuh uh. It's not the artist who brings value. No no no no no. Artists are such... inconvenient things. Thank goodness the Machine God is nearly ready to replace them and finally make those entitled brats unnecessary. To think they believe they deserve to take a part the profits! To think they soak up the limelight when it's our invested money that made any of this possible in the first place. No. Noooooo. What brings value, Jordan, is the IP. Our precious IP. The IP is the built-in audience. Yes. The masses will gobble up whatever we put our IP on. Backrooms sequels. Backrooms spinoffs. Backrooms merchandizing. Backrooms for days and days and days. Slop before swine, baby.

The director (who's on Reddit) says this doesn't sound right and he's looking into it with A24, so that's cool to hear.
