This is true as well. I won’t disagree that there’s nuance here. But still, I think most people have cognitive distortions around the state of every media industry. With the huge rise of Disney and Netflix running the industry, we now see more independent films and new studios taking up the slack. Just like how we’ve had great indie games lately but the mainstream AAA stuff just isn’t impressing the same way. Think of the original couple of assassins creed games and compare them to the new ones. Sure there’s more content, but there’s not as much innovation going on.
I think that just supports my point, that rather than survivorship bias this is a small group of companies owning the entire industry, and movies are just actually getting worse
Gaming is going through the same thing with Microsoft now owning most of the industry, but 1-5 people can make an indie game without leaving the house. There's also a number of non-shittified stores for distribution, meanwhile media and streaming services are firmly in the stages of enshitification
I don't think indie movies will be able to take over the way indie games seem to be - not without the streaming industry changing first
I think the streaming industry is dying. This is a bit of a darker era in movie history, especially with the strikes and exploitation, but it will pass.
