Sum up what today's magic industry seems like to you.. in 3 words

Wow, you're quite negative. What happened?

My three words would be:

Evolving - Something the more experienced magicians usually don't understand for the reason they tend to be very close-minded, and many modern magicians don't understand it either because with their very open minds they think magic still is magical if they combine it with extreme card flourish skills.

Popular - Magic is more popular than ever, which I personally tend to see as a bad thing because there are more people calling themselves magicians too without living up to the title at all, it boosts exposure and bad performance, and companies seem to abuse it too, which leads to my final word...

Over-commercialized - Speaks for itself.
