When I look at it, the death of the movie store and the advent of streaming hasn't massively effected the blockbuster or the event movie. It's the mid budget movie that died. The movie that had to rely on a good script and take chances with the idea that it could pull in 10 or 15 million in profit and make everyone happy.
In terms of movie quality dwindling, that's entirely on the corporate scum running the studios. Studios like A24 stand out because they are old school. The major players now demand cookie cutter dreg because they are risk adverse and filmmaking stupid.
