It's hard to remember but thirty years ago comic books were taken seriously as a medium, about as much videogames are today. Since then they've crashed and burned, becoming more and more irrelevant because normies couldn't figure out which books were part of which series and the constant reboots prevented them from getting into any specific story.
The same will happen to movies too. Look at how movie ticket sales are falling, which is hidden because theaters keep increasing prices to compensate. Hollywood themselves already moved to day-one Netflix releases of major films but it's not really helping because it's still more expensive than a comparable videogame (especially f2p garbage like fortnite).
