Most people watch a movie. We use it to generate new ideas.
Don’t Encourage Us takes films and TV apart to uncover the creative decisions, strategic trade-offs, and unexpected connections that spark original thinking. From Alfred Hitchcock to Artificial Intelligence, we use stories as springboards for exploring business, human behavior, strategy, technology, and creativity in ways that reveal possibilities others might miss.
The point isn’t to review what’s been done. It’s to connect ideas that haven’t been connected, challenge familiar assumptions, and discover new ways of seeing problems and opportunities.

A plot can be broken and a film can still work. Deadpool & Wolverine is Exhibit A — we break down exactly why the character work and tonal execution carried a thinly-plotted story to $1.3B, and what that says about where creative effort actually needs to go. Then: Roadside Picnic and Tarkovsky'…

A $15 million Japanese film delivered better visual effects than Hollywood blockbusters spending ten times as much. Godzilla Minus One isn't just a great monster movie it's a case study in what happens when a director with VFX expertise controls the budget, and when a three-year script delay actual…
Is Netflix deliberately making its shows easy to ignore — and if so, what does that mean for every advertiser writing them a check? The hosts unpack the streaming advertising problem no one's naming, then turn to Amazon's $153 million bet on Fallout and find a classic storytelling template hiding u…
