I find it hard to take anything that youtuber says seriously ever since they made a video about how Quantumania was a good movie. Always makes me think his perspectives on other issues are as naive as that one.
That aside, I do think Hollywood is in trouble. The biggest movies seem to involve one specific dude who does his own stunts, Hollywood accounting is wiping away movies and shows before anyone gets to see them thus restricting the potential growth of new and established properties and further homogenizing available content, writers rooms/armies of producers /spineless directors who throw away their integrity for Disney money keep being utilized instead of just hiring a competent core production team and giving them freedom, mid range budget films rarely get greenlit unless they’re horror or have a gimmick for the tik tok crowd (like m3gan or bodies bodies bodies), and audiences generally don’t care about the ins and outs of the movie industry so very few people go out of their way to support the right shows and movies (I.e. making an effort to go to mid budget movies whenever they pop up instead of waiting for streaming or turning on a show they’re interested in when it launches instead of when all the episodes are out on binge).
A major shift has to be coming because the current path seems futile.
