I'd argue that the rise of AI makes all pre-AI works more valuable. Not only because only pre-AI works are guaranteed to be free of AI filler "content", but also because pre-AI works represent a larger investment of authorial time and expertise. Kind of how hand-sculped works from the renaissance era are more valuable than far more detailed 3d-printed objects.

You'll still be able to make films the old way. It'll become an artistic choice.
