I had to read this like 3 times before I realised what it was saying.

Partly that's on me and my sleep-deprived state. But partly..."overlooking" is not synonymous with "overseeing". In fact in this case they're almost antonyms. (Executives "overlooking" the film branch implies the film branch is actually really good, but the executives don't acknowledge that.)

This is just executives everywhere though. People notice more when it’s entertainment media, or planes where the doors fall off mid flight.

Me in 2000: it'd be awesome if more of my favorite comic books were made into movies!

Me in 2024: Nooooo. Please, no more.

It seems that the only purpose these executives have is to siphon money straight up the organization to themselves. Do they provide any use to these studios other than that?

Doesn’t “craven” mean “coward”

There be some big brains at Sony

Edit: Not a Sony character, but a character from the sixties
