Well, another tragedy is that people seem to have forgotten that there is even life outside of that miserable wasteland of the media. Even our talents, or simple, creative works give us a more balanced, wholesome idea of life. When kids put down the movies and video games and pick up the spatula or the hammer or the crochet hook or the sewing needle... it's like... "Hey... you mean life's not just about school and work and eating and sleeping and watching people blow each other up on television?!" Yeah, there are countless things we could be doing, that are productive, useful, educational, you name it... positive, wholesome things we can learn to do and even have fun doing them.
I think the entertainment industry has a lot of effects people don't even realize, and one of them, I think, is that besides the utter loss of morality or any kind of moral or truth compass, we have also lost virtually all sense of LIVING. Not just getting up in the morning and working ourselves to death, and then coming home and turning our brains off in front of the TV. We need to wake up again and realize that contrary to what hollywood would have us think, there is more to life than immorality and ugliness. There are countless good things we can learn and do, and even build up virtues doing them. Because most things do, indeed take virtues, even if only those like patience, temperance (too much of a good thing can be bad), etc... And of course, if we do anything good at all for the love of God, it can have eternal merit. Which means rather than watching television, we could be not only using or discovering our God-given talents and skills, but even working on our salvation while doing them!
It won't be enough for people to merely get the immoral entertainment out of their lives. They must have something to fill that void with, and the best cure, in addition to the obvious (God's real religion), is for us to learn how to live again... to explore and grow our talents and skills in positive, moral, healthy ways, and so to enrich our lives. And often times those things we are good at, we also enjoy doing. So there is entertainment and recreation after hollywood. And of course, we need to get back the idea of the family and family life, and true friendships, which are also important parts of a wholesome, healthy life.
If people would realize how bad the entertainment industry has become, and opt to return to a simpler, moral life, they would discover to their pleasant surprise that it's not all pain and somberness. It has a sweetness and satisfaction all it's own, and I'm sure it's the last thing the infernal adversary wants anyone to rediscover! But nature abhors a vacuum, and if we want to throw out what is bad, we need to rediscover and embrace what is good again.
