I do find it funny that Hollywood, to take advantage of the Chinese market, had to slander America. Until China started producing their high quality movies and Hollywood was mostly left with having to come back to the country it was slandering to make a profit.

With today’s CGI and AI you can make a movie with John Wayne, Charlie Chaplin and many other long dead actors in it.
You cannot even trust a photo on FB anymore. Too many AI fakes.

I’m still working on my movie, The Other Side Of Darkness, but it looks like that title is taken. My updated working title is The Other Side Of The Dark Side Of The Moon.

And to some degree it's been out for a while. Remember Disney/Star Wars using CGI to resurrect actor Peter Cushing for 2016's Rouge One? Of course, back then 9 years ago only an outfit like theirs could pull that off. Now a lot more people can.

For there shall arise false christs and false prophets and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

They can return their focus to excellent acting, sophisticated cinematography, compelling plots and truly novel story lines. Things that are hard to replicate artificially.
Nah, just kidding.

It all depends on what viewers will settle for. The mass market accepts TikTok.
