Yeah there’s a lot of plot-first storytelling out there, especially in Hollywood. A writer/team know what they want to have happen in the story, and that’s their priority. That’s what they find most important and/or interesting. So they write to that, and they view characterization as just, like, a hurdle they need to clear in order to have their story the way they want it. “How do we make these characters do these things and get to this point?” rather than, “What would the characters do in the situation they’re in (and what does that mean, for them and for the plot)?”

I hate this kind of storytelling, but imo it also tends to spawn the largest and most passionate fandoms. So basically, I hate this kind of storytelling, but I love the kind of storytelling it provokes in reaction to its inadequacies?
