It will not be for all audiences but it will be exciting to see this in action on a big scale.

“Your child is graduating from college and wants to work in media. Which industry do you advise them to go into and why?
Top answer: Gaming (56%)
The runners-up: Social media (16%), TV (14%)
The argument for gaming: “It’s by far the fastest growing sector and has a global appeal.”
The argument for TV: “With the increased access to non-English language shows, there will be a very interesting international renaissance of TV shows coming very soon.””

The reason M&A in gaming exploded during the past 5 years is NOT (only) revenue.
There’s a much longer game that’s being played.
Companies don’t just buy a money-making machine.
They’re buying innovation and Live ops expertise.
They’re buying user engagement know-how.
They’re buying first-party data.
They’re buying an IP.
When you focus on these, you’re looking at the future, not the present.
Acquisitions in gaming are about long-term growth.

Hollywood Predictions 2024 – Mergers, Netflix Domination, and AI Revolution
As 2023 draws to a close, the entertainment industry finds itself at a crossroads. The year was marked by the writer's strike, declining movie theater attendance, and a continued streaming boom. But what does 2024 hold for Hollywood? Based on insights from Bloomberg's "How to Fix Hollywood in 15 Questions" article, here are some key predictions:
1. The Mega-Merger Mania: Get ready for a year of consolidation. The article anticipates a wave of media mergers, as companies desperately seek scale and cost-cutting measures to compete with streaming giants. Paramount Global is already the subject of much speculation, with potential suitors like Warner Bros. Discovery and Apple circling. Investors may rejoice at these moves, but creators and employees could face layoffs and reduced creative freedom.
2. Netflix Reigns Supreme: While some scoff at Netflix's recent film flops, they remain the streaming kingpin. The article reveals that, for the majority of industry professionals, Netflix is still the top choice for selling a new show, beating out HBO and Apple. And prepare for Netflix to dip its toes into the live sports arena, potentially acquiring major event rights within the next few years.
3. The Scripted TV Squeeze: The writer's strike's impact will be felt in 2024. The article predicts a significant drop in the number of scripted TV shows, potentially down to 413 from over 600 before the strike. This contraction could be short-lived, with some optimistic about a rebound later in the year.
4. AI Takes the Stage: Artificial intelligence is poised to reshape the entertainment landscape. The article predicts that visual effects and animation will be the areas most impacted within the next three years, with AI offering faster and cheaper production solutions. Voice acting could also be in for an AI takeover.
5. The Shonda Rhimes Effect: When it comes to picking showrunners, Shonda Rhimes reigns supreme. The article reveals her as the top choice for producers, praised for her consistently smart and successful TV shows across different platforms.
Looking Beyond the Predictions:
These #predictions paint a picture of a Hollywood undergoing significant transformation. While #challenges abound, there's also potential for positive change. AI could democratize #contentcreation, and the focus on quality streaming content could benefit viewers. However, concerns about consolidation, creative control, and employee well-being must be addressed to ensure a thriving and diverse #entertainment landscape in 2024 and beyond.
What are your thoughts on these predictions? What other trends do you see shaping Hollywood in 2024?
