The purpose of an idea is to be explorable
Most movie ideas fail at this right off the bat, because they have already been explored by the idea haver. Thats why you get movies that feel like a book report about itself

NO SHARK is a journey i took, sparked solely by ‘i wonder what a shark movie without a shark in it would/could be like’
25,000 words later it’s one of the best things ive ever written

Woke hollywood’s ultimate downfall isnt even that it’s woke, it’s that ideas arent being explored—no one writing or making these movies is going on a journey, and so the audience isnt either. From top down, everyone is the same going in and coming out
People will say to me ‘how can you do a shark movie without a shark in it?’
Because DESIRE is real. It became a film about desire, about wanting a shark
My exploration of the existential conundrum of the idea led me to that
Thats what ideas should do for us
