If Amy Schumer can get 10 million or whatever Netflix gotta match. IMO they both garbage but one has an Oscar.
And the one with an Oscar has done nothing of note since winning it.If Amy Schumer can get 10 million or whatever Netflix gotta match. IMO they both garbage but one has an Oscar.
If that's all they needed, wouldn't Monique be selling out arenas then?This is entertainment, it's all about advertising. They have an "Oscar winning actress returning to comedy for her big Netflix debut"
The tagline writes itself. Just like they do with shytty movies "Oscar winner xxxx and xxx (another random actor) XXXX (name of movie)"
The show they used for Amy's special was part of her world wide tour where she was selling out arenas. She was the first woman comic to sell out MSG. In the 2-3 years before the Netflix special she had a popular show on Comedy Central, a best selling book, starred in a movie that made $150M, she was everywhere. She's trash, but she was popular as fukk. That's why she got paid.I'm not saying more or less people would tune in but if they are paying 10 mil for Schumer and people still ain't tuning in then she can be a one and done.
I don’t get why the thread is obsessed w/ Amy Schumer...
Cats keep pointing to an Oscar win for a depressing ass movie from 10 years ago as to why she should get top dollar for a comedy special on Netflix..Do white men or women like Monique?
Netflix trying to make money breh.. If monique couldn't draw a white audience, Netflix wasn't gonna splurge..
Its not hard to understand..

Katt Williams already said that Netflix doesn't give a fukk about whose funny or not, they care about money. The comedienne that's popular as fukk in various forms of media that has a recent worldwide tour that sold out arenas is going to get much more money than someone doing small ass shows.And its its nothing personal.. Once people understand business and how it operates, it will make sense
Close thread.One was offered a job and didn’t like the pay
the other was blackballed for standing up against police brutality

Even if a bunch of people watched Schumer to hate watch and talk shyt about, that's a W for Netflix.
I posted in another thread about this, Wanda Sykes wasn't happy with her Netflix offer, went somewhere else, worked on her shyt, made moves as a writer/actor on other shows and got a better offer from Netflix that she was happy with and took. She said the shyt wasn't personal, it was business.
Last year when she was touring and came to the Houston Improv. I go to comedy shows n $hit regularly tho...
Not sure some of y’all nikkaz get out the house more than 1 weekend a month.

Nah, not at a professional level.Go to a day party...have a drink...there’s other ways to “make a living” w/ football outside the NFL. They’re not as high profile or as lucrative. Go experience life before it’s too late lil bro.

The NFL effectively has a monopoly on football talent.
You good at football, you trained at it your whole life, only way to make a living is to go through the NFL.
Monique has endless platforms to promote her comedy.
Also, Netflix didn’t even shut her out. They gave her an offer they thought made sense for them from a financial point of view.
Totally different situations. OP is dumb as fukk.
Right, if there was a competing league Kap and his fans could actually say “fukk the NFL”I do wish the nfl had legit competition. He’ll I remember back in the late 90s when wcw and wwf would go at it. The competition brought out the best for the fans.
