I'm basically going to see anything that they make... they're earned that from me.

Part of me wishes that I could just get a $250 "lifetime subscription" to everything they do... they get the money up front. It's not clear to me how they would go about using the money in the current system... maybe they could negotiate for a greater share of the proceeds if they bring financing money to the table; maybe that would make it easier for financiers to say yes. (yup, i said proceeds, not profits, since i'm aware of hollywood accounting). maybe something through patreon might work for this.

Agreed. I'd happily trade the whole disney catalog for a new coen brother movie any day of the week.

I look forward to new great firsts like this one. 15+ years ago TV and Movies were major status differences. Actors/Directors wouldn't besmirch themselves working on tv. It's been interesting seeing this flipflop. Netflix could be the first one to reach budgets that double, triple or more Game of Thrones or parallel on a per-minute basis Avatar and so on but in lengthier form. I had always imagined them bringing their A-game to a Star Wars TV series (maybe copping FireFly elements), and despite the Disney news which is overblown, I still think this could happen.
