Creative Change from Social Upheaval

In this episode we discuss what we've watched recently, with Tony pushing the powers of positivity after watching Kipo, while John questions what world Westworld wants to be and who wants to live there after watching season three. Then we discuss the possible realties and consequences if the major theater chains went went bankrupt and had to close. What could happen if the studios tried to own the major theater chains? Finally we discuss the implications of all the recent social upheaval from racial justice to the pandemic, two once in a generation events that have overlapped at the same time. How will this affect the creative process and output from film and television studios and networks, both in the short and long term?
