Quibi is much closer to TikTok than “Hollywood”.

So... short clip hollywood (shit) shows?

Quote: | Quibi made their “episodes” 11 minutes to avoid paying union writers. Everyone should MC Hammer dance on their grave.
By playing credits between each act, instead of commercials, Quibi claimed a 10 episode season was actually 40 “low budget under 12 minute episodes”, allowing them to skirt SAG (actors union) and WGA (writers union) minimums. They were a scab-based business model. |

You know, at what point do we start blaming retarded “investors” putting their fund money in retarded ideas? Throw money at me, and I’ll burn through 2 billions just fine.

Truth be told, they raised almost 2 billion from big companies like Viacom, Disney, Comcast, AT&T, and even got millions in ad commitments from Pepsi, Walmart, etc... money that went to lots of creative folks putting together content.
I admit I only saw pirated versions of their Fugitive (was decent enough), Die Hart (worth it alone just to ogle Nathalie Emmanuel), and the wonderful quarantined-from-home-shot Princess Bride (which had me throwing on the original just so I could see "more"). Hardly a fraction of their content, but nothing else interested me that I noticed.
You can judge the content for yourself, but the fact that some of those smaller projects gave independent creative people a chance to take studio money, albeit indirectly since the studio system likely wouldn't have given them anything.
So yeah, a failure as a venture for sure. But kudos to taking advantage of the studios that won't take chances on their own content and keep pouring out remakes and sequels and wait with bravado for the world to break out in simultaneous applause.
(though I realize several studios do take chances on some films and series, and I know I'm over-generalizing, the point still stands)

There are many.
Just doesn't grow user base.
Quibi was never a youtube alternative or a concept for one.
