why are Milennials obsessed with this trash? >0 plotline >retarded action scenes that make you dizzy >porno-acting >shit CGI >meant for kids, still watching it at the age of 35
>>201761278The acting is terrible. It does remind me of porno dialogue, very soulless and lame.
>>201761278Same reason for why they watch tranime and tarantino shitMillennials are retarded
>>201761278I see people throwing around the escapism argument because of how shit and depressing the outside world is that they want something that reminds them of better times aka childhoodbut the 70s were arguably just as fucking bad as today and all the movies then were low-budget depressing as fuck dramas, made by people that if they were around today would be posting on reddit talking about how being happy isn't worth itso I don't know what the deal is
>>201761278Do you guys ever wonder if the Greeks used to have these kinds of discussions about their myths and heroes?>damn Socrates I’m so sick of these storytellers regurgitating the same five plot lines with ares>Yes Plato I agree, the storytellers just keep making hephaestus a cuck and I feel they are trying to demoralize us
>>201761380>the movies then were low-budget depressing as fuck dramasAnd the audiences hated them, as evidenced by how Jaws and Star Wars blew them away and brought in the era of the blockbuster.
>>201762546exactlyit's why I laugh when manic depressive forum lurkers bemoan the end of 70s auteur cinema, like when Friedkin's Sorcerer flopped and Star Wars landed a week laterwhy would I watch some dour piece of shit that's going to make me feel bad while watching it, feel bad when it ends, and then come outside to see store display TV's talking about acid rain and reactor meltdowns and gas rationing while I walk home - when instead I could watch a fun movie about sharks or space wizards with good effects and tension where the good guys win and I can escape the bleak shit for 2 hours?I'll go one further and argue that the French Connection's downer ending with the accidental team kill was needlessly nihilistic and takes an almost 10/10 and drags it into being 70s slop
>>201761278I'm depressed and suicidal and use movies and video games as a distraction
>>201763276Pray to Jesus and ask for truth and meaning
