“Granted, that still doesn’t mean this idea isn’t wholly unnecessary, likely doomed to take what was fascinating in context and subtext and render it redundant and pedestrian by isolating it and spelling it out, and above all, offer yet more evidence that every industry would prefer to cannibalize an older good idea than take a risk on a new one.”
from Sean O’Neal’s writeup on Before Watchmen but, basically, a statement that could be applied to any mainstream creative industry - comics, movies, tv, etc. Perfectly stated.
