Think of an NFT as a membership card to a club. You can sell your card to someone else, but there's nothing stopping the club from changing their system and no longer accepting old cards, not letting someone in despite having a card, or going out of business.

And you've never been able to own movies or video games, unless you made them yourself. NFT's don't change that either, you may own a receipt for access to something, but the club analogy still counts.
