You’re conflating the ability to make things for the masses and being able to automatically generate it.
Film production is already commoditized and anyone can make high end content.
Being able to automatically create that is a different argument than what you posit.

I don't think this matters, new movies and TV shows already have to compete with a huge amount of old content, some of it amazing. Just like a new painting or professional photo has to compete with the billions of images already existing on the web. Generative models for video and image are not going to change the fact we already can't keep up.
Like bloggers had the opportunity to compete with newspapers, the ability to generate videos will allow to compete with movies/marvel/netflix/disney & company.
Eventually, only high quality content will justify the need to pay for a ticket or a subscription, and there's going to be a lot of free content to watch, with 1000x more people able to publish their ideas, as many have been doing with code on github for a while now, disrupting the concept of closed source code.
