    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.
