It will definitely improve from here onward. On the other hand, I agree that it's a ridiculous thing to say that traditional movie-making is over. There's so much involved in making a movie, so much happenstance from the actors performances in a specific environment. You will never be able to get this in AI.. you might get some sort of mimicry, but the comparison is futile.. a movie isn't just a sequence of changing pixels.

I think it’s more complex than that. What you’re going to see is a race to the bottom, the same as with claymation films and 3d. It will suddenly require a lot less (expensive, highly trained) people to make the same films. You’ll still need expensive highly trained people to do it, but with different skills and a lot less of them can do a lot more a lot more quickly. …and that means that some studios will make bad, low grade films… and some studios will make amazing films using hybrid techniques (like 3d printed faces for claymation). …but overall, the people funding movies will expect to get more for less, and that will mean a downsizing of the number of people employed currently in certain roles. Traditional film making over? Hm… it’s complicated. Is it over if the entire industry changes, but people are still making films? Or is that just the “traditional” part of it which is over? It’s definitely going to change the industry. People will still definitely film things. …but, I wager, less people will be doing highly payed skilled manual work, which will replaced by a few people doing a different type of AI assisted work. …and we’ll see some really amazing indy films, of small highly technical teams producing content with very little physical filming.
