That model may also be dead. Nobody really sees movies anymore, not like before, and nobody wants to wait 6 months for the season to end. That’s very much a 1950s - 2010 model. Not sure what will replace it, but some combination of games and informal content like YouTube/TikTok etc might be where we end up.

Yeah, and that is what I'm concerned about.

Is that good?

There will be something new and we’ll all become Gen Alpha’s boomers.

Being serious, however, who can predict? We’ll have to be patient and see what happens.

I'm not judging Gen Alpha, I'm judging the world we are creating for them to grow up in.
