Wait till the animation programs get more advanced and available under $ 1000. I could see people making good quality animated movies under $ 25,000 and sell it on the internet. There will be no major studios PC and economical hangups and high price actor salaries and egos to deal with. Innovation, creativity and distribution will be more democratic and diverse. The day will come when live actors will be obsolete. There are programs that will translate live speech with animated human mouth. The day will come when human facial expression and movement can be coordinated with an animated figure. That means a homely person who has talent but prevented from entering into movies due to looks can manipulate a handsome animated human character to mimic his facial and body movements in a movie. Technology will open new avenues for opportunity and creativity that does not exist in Hollywood today.

I know (providing our technological world does not destroy iself first--but that's another story).

Still, it's too bad that the world is so overpopulated that people need movies to satisfy their inborn need for stimulation in their confined and boring lives.

But the restive plebeians need the modern circus--an opiate of movies and music--to numb them into quiescence.

Sigh.
