As an actor I am always waiting for my luck to run out.
The filmmakers aren't running the studios anymore. Sometimes people who like films are making them, but by and large, they have to go report quarterly earnings and all that stuff. The competition is so huge that it's very hard to get people to show up to see any movie in the theater, much less an original one that isn't a version of something else they saw.
Most people want to be able to go off and deal with their day - stop in here, run errands there - and when you can't do that, going out becomes a chore.
