      Making a movie by taking advantage of a tragedy in which thousands of people lost their homes and some even their lives is in poor taste. Many of these people are vulnerable and don’t have a safety net, they won’t be able to rebuild their lives after this.

      Remember how The Creator got backlash for using footage of the Beirut explosion?

        So giving them money to use their burned-out land for like, 3 months, is bad? As has always been the case, “poor taste” is exceedingly impractical and negative for society.

        Using real footage of people dying really butts up against the practicality line, but why fake an explosion if it’s already recorded? Same with the train crash thing in a similar vein.

        Typed from your slave made cellphone from the comfort of your slave sewn clothes… Poor taste indeed.
