The movie industry is a diverse and ever changing beast. Whether it's the different cultures around the world with their own ways of telling stories, or how the advent of technology has forced the movie studios to adapt and change as the audiences wants and interests change. This can be seen in the 80s with the invention of VHS which allowed (a watered down) cinema experience in the home. Or with the popularity of streaming services that has seen a new gold-rush where all the studios are starting a new 'streaming war', all vying for our eyeballs and money.
