    How long can the film industry last?

    Most films are only a remake of a previous film and already this shows. The film industry has to become more unrealsitic in order to show something that has not gone before.

    Remakes are another option, but will they get away with remaking remakes?

    I give the film industry 30 years before it declines to a small number of big production films a year.

    film is an art form, it doesn't have to be good or bad, its an expression.

    It will never die unless it is replaced by new technology, VR or whatever.

    Which film industry? It seems there are alot more independant films now. The major players will make what sells rather than go bankrupt, they might have to take more risks.

    hollywood should die. Film industry should not die and will not. The reason that film industry will not die soon is because it currently exists and profits from this business are growing.

    Oh please..you people take Hollywood for granted. Try watching filth like Bollywood and see how fast you'll be dying for hollywood again.

    Judging from the newish (1-3 years old) movies I watch on cable, I would say there's only about 25 decent movies made a year.

    I am entertained by films. Naturally, I wouldn't then want the film industry to die.

    I have. Not everyone finds that stuff entertaining.

    IFC provides something for those looking for something higher (provided a lot of those indie flicks suck too) but Hollywood provides entertainment for the masses.

    I heard the "film industry" is hitting creative bankruptcy... might explain why most films remind me of those I have seen before.

    i still get entertainment out of the hollywood films and they are still making very good films, capote last year was a good example of this which starred possibly the best actor in the world at the moment, philip seymore hoffman. they are also still churning out great 'popcorn' movies at the moment, i found MI3 an extremely entertaining 2 hours, and i am also looking forward to seeing the Da Vinci code and Xmen3 before the end of the month.

    I ain't gonna take it easy on stupid people who say stupid shit against kick-ass movies. If he hasn't seen any decent movies, then it's his fault that he hasn't rented any.
