Losing total connection with a huge portion of the movie-going audience, Hollywood now faces the moment of decision concerning whether they will ever make a rebound.
Edward B. Driscoll Jr. has a great article talking about the history that has led to this:
"Prior to the 1970s, Hollywood aimed its movies at a mass culture. But by the late 1970s, the first signs of political correctness began to increasingly separate movie makers from their audience, beginning perhaps most visibly with Warren Beatty's Reds in 1981."
The decision before Hollywood is whether they're going to get back into the entertainment industry, or continually try the stupid strategy of offering politically motivated drivel. It may already be too late as millions of people are sick of that junk and are seeking alternative means of entertainment.
People need an industry that offers them a chance to temporarily escape the problems they face and enjoy being able to sit back and be entertained. When you have to swallow the endless attack on millions of people and the way they think, it can never be a sustaining industry, as they've found out the hard way.
Whether Hollywood likes it or not, they're being forced to change by thinking of making movies that their customers want to watch, not forcing them to watch through the endless propaganda machine that Hollywood has become.
