Because one requires years of work, and the other only requires passive consumption.

Writing a good story is the first & easiest part of the process. Not that it's easy, but you can do it alone, for free, and take as much time as you need to make it perfect. Now imagine trying to raise millions of dollars to produce it, and try to explain your vision to a bunch of actors, and find a way to make it all look real for the camera.

And like you said, I don't have the resources for making a film right now anyway.
