"Hollywood forgot the audience was not some captive population, chained to their seats. It was a relationship. They trashed it, and now the breakup will likely destroy them."

"Hollywood is in big trouble, and everybody can feel it now. The panic is real, and it’s setting in. Jobs are drying up, and the people inside the Tinsel Town machine are finally having to admit that something really big is going very wrong. Yes, some of this panic is about streaming, economics, COVID fallout, and production fleeing to other states and countries, thanks to Gavin Newsom. But let’s not play dumb here. Hollywood also did this to itself.
"The movie industry made a very deliberate choice to stop entertaining people and start lecturing them. When Trump came down that escalator, Hollywood went bonkers. Actors, studios, late-night bozos, and every other self-important narcissist in the movie galaxy decided they weren’t just actors anymore. They were activists on an unholy mission to “save democracy” by drowning the country in Trump hate, progressive identity sermons, and stale, joyless slop. And normal people, including plenty who don’t even care about politics, eventually reached the same conclusion: enough is enough.
"But in perfect narcissistic form, Hollywood kept ignoring the red flags. They laughed off the sagging box office numbers, the cultural backlash, and the growing hatred toward all the woke messaging because they thought it was too important and big to fail. Hollywood thought they were untouchable and the audience would keep showing up out of habit.
"That didn’t happen.
"Instead, America checked out. Now the days of the “big stars” are gone, the magic disappeared, the loyalty is in the dustbin, and as the whole thing starts to rot from the inside out. And the real kicker is that America isn’t rushing in to save this dying industry. They’re standing on the sidelines and watching it burn.
"The panic got real when the Wall Street Journal published a story on the “nightmare scenario” that’s unfolding." . . . More...
