That doesn’t guarantee number go up.

We must fail to create and learn, without failure there is no growth and sometimes those failures birth something spectacular. Our system has us at a stranglehold, it stifles and discourages creative solutions, and the stories we tell reflect this. There is no future if we continue like this. This is a symptom of a sick system.

Yup. The system doesn’t know how to predict properly on new IP. They know that existing IP has an existing fan base and can have its own virality and marketing built in, so they can plug it into these “models” and forecast revenue and stuff so these guys can have jobs. That’s why we get another culturally irrelevant live action Disney remake. More of the artform is getting soulless over time.
