As The Gods Will Filmyzilla
When a viewer downloads As the Gods Will from an illegal source, they are denying revenue to the production companies, the distributors, and the creators who took a risk on such a bizarre and creative project. If every fan of the genre watched the film via Filmyzilla, the message sent to producers is that there is no financial incentive to fund such unique, experimental films. In a broader sense, piracy threatens the diversity of cinema, pushing studios toward safe, formulaic blockbusters that guarantee a return on investment through theatrical releases, rather than creative risks like Miike’s film.
