Hollywood’s Challenges and Proposed Solutions
In tackling the persistent challenges facing Hollywood, from diminishing box office numbers to uninspiring Oscars ratings, a recurring suggestion stands prominent: "Make better movies." Various commentators, including YouTubers and Redditors, urge a shift towards films that captivate wider audiences. However, while simple in theory, implementing this advice is complex given the industry’s ongoing efforts to produce appealing content.
The notion that Hollywood might prioritize political agendas over profit doesn’t reflect the industry’s historical preference for money. While film critic Owen Gleiberman champions producing "100 movies a year that people want to see," studios arguably already aim for this. The industry’s real struggle lies in identifying films that truly resonate with diversifying audiences.
Key Takeaways
- The call to "make better movies" is prevalent but challenging to execute.
- Hollywood is historically driven by profit, not solely political agendas.
- Studios face difficulties determining which films will connect with audiences.
