Joe Rogan sounds alarm bells on Hollywood
As per the American podcaster, the media is moving towards an independent future. No longer are we living in a time where quality content is a result of high-quality instruments that cost loads. He feels like the effectiveness of Hollywood is ‘waning’ to the point of no escape. Their current path leads them to a point of no return.
He said, “I think we’re looking at a future where almost all credible media is independent. I really do. I just don’t think they’re going to make it.”
Moreover, the 55-year-old thinks that Hollywood will only be good for ‘exorbitantly expensive like films with special effects’. This is quite a grim prediction y the UFC commentator. Although he has the know-how about Hollywood and his claims might not be baseless. He has often had many Hollywood entities over, such as Quentin Tarantino and Robert Downey Jr. However, this isn’t the only time that he has blasted Hollywood.
