The fall of an Empire: The WGA and SAG strikes.

My thoughts on the Writers Guild and Actors Guild strikes and the results of what can happen in the future.

I enjoyed this video a lot. You condensed a lot of information into a short period of time and were incredibly engaging.

[@TheWickedFanboy58]

Thanks. It was exactly what I entended.

Interesting video, all sides are harming each other, there's so much good back catalogue that if films stopped being made we would not be able to see them all Because of the Streaming wars we have been oversaturated with so much nonsense and just because critics and social media personalities say it's worth seeing doesn't mean it is I too collect physical media older movies and shows rather than modern, besides the modern shows or on streaming like it's forcing you to spend money on them I'd rather physical media than streaming

[@TheWickedFanboy58]

You have a point there. Enjoy them.

I think it would be better if the big Hollywood studios be allowed to die. Its not that I don't have any hope that they can be saved, its that I think the likelihood of the studios being saved is so low its not worth the effort. Its not just the writers, show runners, directors and actors that are the problem. Its the studio executives that hired them, that let them attack the audience, that greenlit excessive budgets that got badly mismanaged. Fixing the problem means getting rid of the executives that are part of the problem, which is a majority of them. I see a problem with removing a majority of the decision makers, replacing them with new people and then trying to carry on business. It isn't an insurmountable challenge, but it might be a bigger challenge than Hollywood can beat. The final nail in the coffin is legacy. Hollywood had decades of legacy carrying them, now they have nearly a decade of failure dragging them down. They can't bank on the legacy of good without the bad, but they also can't survive without the legacy of the old.

You are right on alk accounts. Cheers!

Western entertainment is ruined and won't come back. Now it depends on other factors. Much bigger. Geopolitical changes. As you say, other countries propose great things. I could propose you many, but just watch my fav kdrama "W two worlds apart". A style in "Twilight Zone" way. Logical high-concept. I think you'll find the experience you like and it's great to watch for a screenwriter. TOP10 of kdrama screenwriters but in my opinion number one. The writer have about 300 hours of produced content since she started with sitcom then switched to limited series. Not just entertainment but universal thematics anyone can rely on. And of course, zero ideological agenda.

[@TheWickedFanboy58]

Cool. Okay. I'll give it a go. I see International foreign content rising in popularity and like I said before independent film projects and television and streaming projects as well. Those are the areas that I'm going to be heading into specifically independent film as soon as next year. Cheers my friend. And share my KZbin channel with your friends and family if they could check it out.

@@TheWickedFanboy58 You know the movie "Dead Poets Society"? I've gone on twitter to propose my kdrama story to people who could like it. But also, maybe, meet some other screenwriters, what basicaly is a writing group. But meet screenwriters is difficult in the current context, because most of them are now in the "dark side" (saying that in a polite way). So, maybe, it could be nice to have a circle of true screenwriters. A "Dead Screenwriters Society".

Have to also say about AI. I saw what it generates. So of course, it's useless and waste of time. It's not worth to generate anything with AI then say to a human to fix it. Much more time wasted. AI can just get a prompt then do it in the most obvious and "on the noze" way. Anyway, AI can't create a picture of the soul, and unable to do the complex scenes order for a story to smash. I'm not against AI and think it can be good to create visuals or things like that. But about writing, it's just useless, and probably will remains so... unless AI is no longer AI but real consciousness.

[@sand-sun-and-rum]

The way you describe AI is the same way people talked who said the internet was just a fad. Artificial intelligence is improving every day, so ignore it at your peril.

[@TheWickedFanboy58]

I don't worry about AI anyway. It's just a tool technically and will remain to be one. You take care.

[@TheWickedFanboy58]

A.I. is only a tool. It's an algorithm. It's not inherently dangerous. The base programmer(A human being)can use it for good or bad. That's what I meant that's it's harmless on its own. It's a non- entity and exists only in people's worst fears.
