The solution is to not have one giant company own literally all mainstream video entertainment.
I know that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but not by much.
I don’t think a media company as big as Disney is capable of becoming a heaven for artistic integrity and creative expression.
They are changing course on things because they started losing money, not because the shows sucked. Disney+ has been a disaster, but that’s because the business model was dumb. The shows being good would not have helped much.
Case in point, their live action remakes are atrocious. But no-one at disney cares that they’re shit, because they make bank at the box office anyway.
I stand by my statement. Current day Disney only makes good stuff by accident. They’re not going to fix that, unless it starts losing them money. Which it isn’t.
If theres one thing that studios like Illumination have proved, it’s that making money in no way requires quality.
