The HN headline misses the point that Netflix told Matt Damon this. I'd guess more people will watch Matt Damon's new movie on Netflix than watched Adolescence before it won the awards People want to see (are more likely to watch) super and action hero movies with big stars in - but there's been so many of these with fairly similar plotlines that outside the attention grabbing action and fight scenes the quiet/story development scenes become like ad breaks and people start looking at their phones. If Matt Damon made different movies for Netflix (like adolescence!), he'd get less views but be given more freedom. > shows like “Adolescence” are “the exception,” Affleck said he felt the show “demonstrates you don’t have to do” the Netflix tricks to please audiences.
