Hollywood is killing it sepf because if greed. If yiu dont pay your staff a decent wage, why do they want to work for you??

And spending hundreds of millions on a single movie is just stupid

More like they are killing themslves by providing nothing of interest and not willing to take risks. Like seriously how many fast and furiouses does the world need?

When they do take risks, no-one buys tickets.

Hollywood is also running into an issue where streaming has killed the profit model for a lot of movies & TV shows and no one knows what the replacement will look like.

And Hollywood doesn't have a problem getting talent for cheap. That's part of the reason why so many productions are across North America.
