I am going to write the obvious thing: instead of wasting dev time with “Stage Manager”, could they just allow us to name our Spaces?

I wonder, how does the author feel about “exploiting” the dangerous real terror of submarine warfare for safe entertainment? Does he think making the terror so close to reality without any of the danger is ultimately a good or a bad thing, does it cheapen or enhance the respect Cold War vets deserve? 

If this is exploitation then you’d better not watch any film with any kind of conflict in it ߙ䦬t;/div>

It was a question specifically to the author, or anyone who served on a sub and saw this on AVP.  Why did I ask? Because in a film you are quite obviously on the outside looking in - you feel for the people in the movie, but not for yourself. This is different - the fear without the consequence. I wonder how someone who had the fear and the consequences feels about it. What do they think the second level effects may be?

Teens in the US, which has less than 5% of the world's population? (and yes, they are richer, but everyone in the world has one smartphone, and only one; so population, not income, is the key measure).

I think the issue is that, while some of these movies may have limited theatrical release, they are made for the TV screen.

This means that the camera shots and the editing is boring. In Wolfs, The Instigators, and other Streamer-movies, there was no creativity in the cinematography at all - it was all just a bunch of people doing things and the camera filming it from the sidelines, with a few close-ups. Like you would shoot a TV show. Great movies are the result of a recipe of combining story, dialogue, score, acting, and cinematography to manipulate feelings out of us; these Apple TV movies rely on just, well, none of these.
