We are saturated in low-quality media these days, most of which is predictable and poorly written. We've seen all the whiz-bang CGI, the standard plots, the trite romantic scenes, the heroes and the anti-heroes. Movies, in particular, suffer because of their short format. Movies essentially rely on stock characters and formulaic plots because there isn't enough time available for a complex story arc or character development. Because of that, I'd wager that well-planned limited series are more popular than movies among people over 40.
