    And now that they’ve had this incredible windfall, this is what they’ll expect from now on.

    That kind of thinking has ruined lots of businesses, like the movie business. Titanic made ridiculous money, so now that’s all anyone wants to invest in. Why put your money in a smaller project that will make millions, when you can our the same money in a project that will make billions?

    So great small movies never get made, while there are tons of crappy expensive movies instead, because the only real consideration was about the profit, never the art.
