Dragon's Lair may bring back demand for quality 2D animation, it may even get audiences to raise their standards, but we have to keep in mind that these trends are a reflection of the economic reality of the industry. (((They))) know that ticket sales at theaters are drying up, audiences aren't cutting the cord, and consumers are seeking out alternative entertainment online. So what do they do? They appeal to people's nostalgia, cannibalize their catalogs, and reboot old franchises left and right, but since most of Hollywood consists of cultural marxists, the original fans become repulsed by these perversions of the works they loved and boycott them.
This current arrangement is not sustainable for Hollywood or Netflix. The only thing propping big media up are the subsidies and cheap loans from which Hollywood and Netflix indulge themselves, but just like how the borrowers lost their homes after the recession, eventually, these streams of "free" money are going to dry up, If the global dollar dumping trend is anything to go by.
Hollywood will collapse, which will pave the way for profitable sustainable alternatives to fill the void in the market. Most likely, they'll resemble Steam or surpass it. That's when things get interesting. Because at that point, the industry will be unrestricted, allowing competition to flourish on a global scale. And that flourishing competition will fuel demand for quality, leading to a new renaissance. So hang in there, while the current state of the industry seems bleak, the night is darkest before the dawn.
