“but it at least had some... class” Not if you’d have asked the WASPs at the time, they very much looedk down on Hollywood. Saw it as vulgar and beneath them for many of the same reasons people dislike MrBeast. The 'class' only came afterwards.

The movie industry was, for much of the 20th century, split between production in Hollywood and finance in New York. Probably the last gasp of that was Marvel, where, for a long time, the merch and comic people in New York made the final decisions.

Which is weird cause it's all but certain MrBeast will be president in the near future. But maybe they just don't view the president as classy?
