Film is ridiculously expensive and time consuming, and at the end of a film you throw everything away just to do it all again later. (I painfully know this as I've made films.)

With the GPU and ML revolution, this entire industry is ripe for automation and disruption. Everything from scripting, camera work, location scouting, set dec, editing, and effects. 2D animation, 3D animation, and live action.

In the future, kids will be making their own Star Wars films in their basement over the weekend. This will put a big dent into IP as well.
