      Oh God, that’s far beyond my ability to address, that’s like asking how to reverse entropy or end world hunger.

      They’ll find a way to distract and cover it up, but it’s a fundamental problem, people love the classics universally and the long tail can swallow new content.

      Eventually those classics will be priced in as more valuable than now, and God forbid we’ll see them try to leverage them more as rebooted franchises :(

      We love them because they make us feel like we felt when we were younger and enjoyed them, and brockmire was right about the power of nostalgia being second only to heroin.

      Replace residuals with stock grants or simply more money to start. If you really want the lottery ticket effect, then maybe use a bonus structure based on speed to 100 million views or something.
