I think Hollywood just doesn't know what is "cool" anymore. Or its run by people who think "cool" isnt what is actually cool. Its fucking exhausting. Cinema used to be badass. Exciting. Now its literally awful sequel nightmares for fat non english speaking mexicans to watch another dumb reboot or sequel on their ipads. Fuck Hollywood is dead.
>>215145554I really don't think anything has changed much.
Sinners and one battle after another both released this year. Both pure excellent kino. Anon, it's not everyone else's fault you only watch capeshit.
>>215145554if you ignore capeshit, then 2010s was better than the 2000s, barring 2007 which is a standout year in kinoma history.
>>215145839Even if you ignore leftist / black idpol slop like those, there's a decent amount of new movies to watch.
>>215145906>the simpleton sees a term used and despite not understanding what it means rushes to use it himself, thus watering down the term and taking away any meaning it once had
>>215145934Simple things are good, midwit. And this isn't a case where there's much nuance lost.
>>215145822It has changed though because at least these were crafted with actual teams of humans and had soul and also these were not the majority of films at the time. Literally hollywood now is either remake reboot crap or an "original" movie with a political bent. Literally the essence of 'storytelling' itself and 'movie magic' is dead. It does not exist anymore.
>>215145957>he missed the point entirely>he still doesn't know what slop is Oh anon, you are a silly billy
>>215145839These both feel politicalA movie that is just a movie for the sake of a good story and being told well, it does not exist anymore, the soul of movies to be vessels for good stories it does not exist anymore
>>215145969No. You've memed yourself into believing so, but again, not much has changed. Reboots and remakes have always been a thing, and so have politics. Those teams of humans, while now arguably less coherent, have always been made up of somewhat broken personalities, and that bit about "essence of storytelling" and "movie magic" is pure gibberish.
>>215146022Whens the last time a good fun movie without a political bent was released? When was the last time you had a Pulp Fiction or a Goodfellas or whatever? The taste makers the actual art makers in film were not incentivized so Hollywood has no one to pass the torch to. Social media killed young creative minds. Hollywood is over.
>>215145997Slop is what is fed to cattle such as yourself.
>>215146048Happens all the time. Have you seen Mann's latest?
>>215146022When was the last time you saw an original movie with an truly electric exciting cast? An actor that is so iconic and memorable? It does not exist anymore. They got greedy. The talent isnt there anymore. Hollywood is dead.
>>215146081What the fuck are you talking about? Literally happens all the time.
>>215146055>he either thinks pigs are cattle or that cows eat slop Not beating the simpleton allegations there lad are we?
>>215146119>missing the point>also wrong about cows Not beating the midwit allegations.
>>215146081>An actor that is so iconic and memorable?FassbenderPattinson Farrell Driver FiennesLaw
>>215146150>he's sticking to the insult populaire of ten years agoOh I am getting all worked up and irritated by this obviously superior specimen with his excellent taste in movies. I guess I'll go back to my 'slop' and leave you to your enjoying and fulfilling life.
>>215146216It's not an insult. It's an estimation of your intellectual capabilities: Elevated, but not to the point where you'd be considered intelligent.
>>215145554Good riddance.
Reminder to not let yourselves become jaded closed off faggots like OP. Only you can prevent it.
>>215145554Say what you want about the kike perv, at least he knew what made movies enjoyable to watch. Shit has been noticeably worse since he was taken from us
>>215146336Really hasn't.
>>215145554There is no hollywood Every hollywood movie is now filmed in uk, Canada, Australia or new Zealand because of taxesThat new star wars movie is filmed in uk. So is the new spiderman. Nobody films in america anymore even though these movies are made by american studios
>>215146336Yeah no I agree, I think these people are just delusional or playing devils advocate. There is a serious serious decline in quality and story telling. There is a serious decline in talent. And in what made movies so special in the first place. A lot of this has to do with the Old Guard being ousted as a bunch of perverts etc. Hollywood is not the same and its gotten worse. This is a fact.
>>215145839>Both pure excellent kinoYes, if you are some brainwashed portlandian troon.
>>215146368Post your Top 10 movies.
>>215146387Name me a movie made within past couple years that even touches Miramax golden run in terms of anything, story or acting or scenery, like is this a joke? You see movies like The Talented Mr Ripley being made anymore?
>>215146403>Name me a movie made within past couple years that even touches Miramax golden run in terms of anything, story or acting or sceneryAnything Villeneuve.>You see movies like The Talented Mr Ripley being made anymore?Obnoxious paranoia shit with cool aesthetics? Safdies.
>>215146455Safdies is not the same you know that they are nihilistic Jews from NYC who are very obviously obsessed with black culture. >>215146455Alright Villeneuve counts and the new David Lynch Twin peaks. Stuff like that. But the most movies being made now are shit to be forgotten. It used to be that every movie made was made to be remembered. Now they are literally made to be watched and then forgotten. Its sad to me.
Reminder that movies aren't video games and haven't fundamentally changed for a long time now. Industry is struggling for a number of reasons, Covid consequences still being a major one, but the medium is doing okay.
>>215146501>Safdies is not the same you know that they are nihilistic Jews from NYC who are very obviously obsessed with black culture.Well... If you want more like Talented Mr. Ripley, just watch Sorrentino. He at least casts Hollywood talent fairly frequently.>Alright Villeneuve counts and the new David Lynch Twin peaks. Stuff like that. But the most movies being made now are shit to be forgotten. It used to be that every movie made was made to be remembered. Now they are literally made to be watched and then forgotten. Its sad to me.Gotta get better at picking what to watch.
>>215145839>SinnersWhy are retards saying this movie is good? It's literally one of the worst most retarded movies ever
>>215146216>>215146277now kiss you fucking faggots
>>215146501>It used to be that every movie made was made to be rememberedHow adorably clueless you are.
>>215146519>Covid consequences still being a major oneHollywood swines were allowed to work through Covid, unlike majority of population.
Obvious issue is that anons don't know how to keep track of intriguing releases.The Lost Bus and Caught Stealing came out very recently.
>>215146591It got the bix nood.
>>215146592Would rather spit in your mouth.
They were using revenue predictions to cast the next movie or compute the audiences facial expressions in response to trailers. They are trying to engineer a revenue stream. They make it flashy.Reasons why Scarjo would be cast in JP Worlds. Or why they keep using the Rock as much as they can.
digital cinematography and streaming turned everything into youtube video content slop. also not hiring white guys on purpose was the dumbest thing hollywood ever did.
>>215147772Literally man. You get it. Its all soulless now. Literally shooting things on 'film' gives it an extra degree of soul. Gatekeeping out white guys was so bad for overall quality control LOL hollywood should burn.
It died when Obama came. The 2007 WGA strike, the replacement of white males, the advent of digital and smartphones, and chasing the elusive "other demographics" (aka betraying your built in consumer base / loyalty) that never existed (I.E. Star Wars/males etc) is what lead to Hollywood destroying themselves.Now everything is by committee, with low talent and post-production band aids which leads to predictable and sterile products that no one cares about besides the uneducated (because they don't know better) younger generations or foreign/third worlders who get to experience the first world through their smartphones.It was all downhill.
