> 3. huge emphasis on TV series in the last decade, again sucking up all the talent

Some stories are just better when they are told in a serial format with more room to breathe. Even if they need to take a budget cut.

A recent example being Tomorrow War[0]. It had WAY too much shit happening for the 2h 18min runtime. The same content as a, say, 4 hour miniseries? That would've been fucking amazing.

Same budget, same plot, just add more character development (talky bits), a bit slower pacing. Perfect.
