How do you think the TV and film industry will look like several years from now on?

I'm think about 10 years or so, but if you'd like to you can try and predict things 20 years or 30 years from now.

Well, predicting the future isn't something anyone can do, so take it with a grain of salt, please.

First of all, I suspect more streaming services will pop up and saturate the market even more, which will make it harder for people to watch some stuff they want to watch since not everything they like or are interested in is available in the same service. And no one has money to subscribe to every possible streaming service available. In fact that's already happening nowadays, but I suspect it will be even worse in the next several years.

Second, superhero movies will eventually stop being cool and trendy. Hollywood has saturated the market with Marvel films in the last several years. This craze won't last forever.

Third, shows like The Simpsons, Family Guy and South Park will eventually come to an end. They've been ongoing for ages, especially The Simpsons, and neither show is in their prime anymore. So eventually they're gonna have to pull the plug.

Fourth, I think remakes will still be made for at least another decade or two. But then they'll reach a point where they'll run out of things to remake since they'll realise they've already remade "everything" and haven't created much original content in the previous 30 years or so. I wonder if until then a new generation of creative creators will step up and invent a bunch of new awesome stuff?

I don't think TVs will go away any time soon. We still need them to play videogames on! And TVs have a bigger resolution than phones or tablets do.

Thoughts?
