anything that conservatives dont like, is "woke" so they try to cancel it. and not because of POOR writing, or acting, or budget.

Anything that actually IS woke, but they like it, is branded non-woke with token excuses given as to why.

See: Bayonetta and Baldur's Gate 3

Not yet, but movies are incredibly reliant on very exact scheduling for the entire crew from rentals to talent to writers to computer time for rendering to catering. Pausing a movie is extremely risky and often leads to canceled deals.
