I'm probably one of the few people who doesn't find this sad at all. In fact, I think it's encouraging. For too long Hollywood has had a near monopolistic domain over what we do or don't see. It has become a cash machine just like the music industry, artistry be damned. Software technology along with the internet is finally leveling the playing field for lower budget and indie films to compete. So while big studios may fail as there's not as much money to be made, there's plenty of hard working talent who will fill the shoes with more passion and creativity for a much more reasonable price. Hollywood execs have been over paid for too long anyway... just my take/ I'll take "Paranormal Activity" for $15,000 Alex!
