Cinema is not about blockbusters. Never was and never will be.

Superheroes will literally fly out of the the screens and crush any filmmaker in their paths.

 

[RIDDICK]

They say that everything is cyclical, so what was popular in 1922 will be popular in 2022! Robin Hood and Oliver Twist reboots! And I hear that these "talkies" are really catching on.

Technology is cyclical.

Oh god, no, not space opera! Gotta be one of the most boring genre!

You need an audience for cinema that requires an active, conceptual level mind. Unless you see a change in the culture away from the perceptual level (materialism/mysticism) you'll never see anything more than a niche market for visionary film.
