A major studio is apparently treating YouTube as a place to drop some of its archive films that have lost their cinematic luster. My mind is admittedly blown.

      Oh wow you made me check again, and now it’s not available either for me (France) ; maybe it’s because this received a lot more attention than they wanted …

        heh, who would have thought that free anything gains attention. Oh well.

    Honestly I’m surprised more studios don’t do this. A lot of movies well past their prime are forgotten by a large amount of people so they won’t be a big draw for a streaming service. However, putting them on an already successful free service and just getting the ad revenue checks? Seems solid to me tbh
