Hollywood's Shift: When Stories Become Less About Fun and More About Lessons

Hollywood has been making some odd choices lately. Instead of focusing on exciting stories, they are adding lessons about social issues. This is not always working well. For example, in the show "Stranger Things, " a character comes out as gay. This is a big moment, but it feels out of place. The show is set in the 1980s, and back then, people might not have reacted so nicely. This change in the story makes it less realistic and more like a lesson. Hollywood has been doing this a lot. They have made a Black Cleopatra, a lesbian kiss in "Toy Story, " and even a robot with pronouns. These changes might make some people feel good, but they also make the stories less fun. People go to movies and shows to be entertained, not to learn about social issues. This is not just happening in one show. Many recent movies and shows have tried to teach lessons instead of telling good stories. For example, the live-action "Snow White" remake lost a lot of money. The movie "The Marvels" also did not do well. These movies tried to be diverse, but people did not like them. They wanted good stories, not lessons.Hollywood is also in trouble because of these choices. They have a lot of debt, and fewer people are going to the movies. If they keep making movies that people do not like, they might have to sell their studios. Some people think Hollywood is punishing anyone who does not agree with their lessons. This is not good for art. Artists should be free to express themselves, not forced to follow one way of thinking. The good news is that people are finding other ways to watch shows and movies. They are supporting independent creators who tell good stories. These creators are not trying to teach lessons. They are just trying to entertain people. Hollywood used to bring people together. Now, it is dividing them. People are tired of being told what to think. They want to be entertained. If Hollywood does not change, it might not survive.
