Movies have gotten so bad today that Zoomers are mystified by old Technicolor films like it's an alien technology
you do understand they can't see your reply here rightyou have to reply to them on that site
>>219630633Retarded nostalgia bullshit engagement bait. Also, movies have gotten better overall.
Have you ever actually tried to sit through Singin' in the Rain? It hasn't aged well.
>>219630793>Also, movies have gotten better overall.o I am laffin
>>219630871It's worth it for Make Em Laugh.
>>219630633>Take movie>Boost saturation by 20%There, there's your technicolor
>>219630871no queer poc?
>>219630871I personally agree. There are so many old films I like way more. I don't get how people say Singing in the Rain holds up.
>>219630921Smugness doesn't suit brainlets like you.
We are not living in the golden agewe are living in the dark ageWW2 was the beginning of the endIt was a gradual downfall so things had plateaued till the end of the century then sometime after the internet came into dominance the rapid decline began and I'm not sure if we have even reached the bottom yet
>>219630633Because zoomers directing modern movies think colors are not realistic
>>219631055>Adam Wingard>zoomer
>>219630793No they haven't lol
>>219630987ironic
>>219631138see >>219630987
>>219630793Oh yeah. So much better
technicolor does look fucking great though
>>219631187Dalit bastard
>>219631137They absolutely have. The only people disagreeing with that are pretentious midwits who basically hate the medium for not merely being filmed theatre.>>219631187That's not a modern movie, mushbrain. It's a special version for a special occasion in a special environment.
>>219630633This isn't the twitter comment section.
>>219630633>Movies have gotten so bad todayProof?
>>219630871Barely qualifies as a movie. It's really just a disjointed succession of musical numbers that carry you to the end.Still comfy to watch it with family once in a while
>>219631334very good, sar
>>219631423
>>219631013“Dark age” is a term for a period of history where there’s little to no records or what happened.
>>219630793>movies have gotten better overall.lmao
>>219631434>disjointed succession of musical numbersWhat we in the movie business refer to as a musical.
>>219630793>movies have gotten better overall.You work in the industry, right? That's the only thing that would explain your delusions besides schizophrenia
>>219631480Describes our age, then. Everything gets buried under the nonstop flood of social media posts. Search engines don't work anymore. More and more content is fake.
>>219631013I genuinely wish nothing but suffering on you pathetic chuds. You deserve every bit of it and more. You're either posturing as some racist alpha male clown cartoon online or crying about how bad things in the world are online. You're completely despicable, effeminate shit eaters.
>>219631455>mediocre, overbudgeted "art" movie by female first time directorCrazy stuff. Got anything else or do you concede that you don't actually have an argument?
>>219631664okay, smart ass, well how about you actually list your conditions for surrender before I waste any more of my time with you.
>>219631604
I am genuinely surprised that there isn't some cheap filter that can be used to create a 90% accurate recreation of technicolor.The actual process was time expensive and required analog filmmaking which I am almost certain does not happen in any appreciable amount any more. It is not surprising that studios do not do Technicolor in the same way it is not surprising that books are no longer bound by hand.
>>219631930You "people" make the silly claim movies are bad now, but are completely unable to give substance to that claim. You just treat is as established fact and try to get away with it that way, when it's only established in your own heads and not even deeply.>>219632005Technicolor looks ridiculous in most cases. There's a reason that post is about a gay fucking musical. Aesthetically it's way too anachronistic now.
>>219631334Okay, better example. Fuck yourself
>>219632302filters look like dogshit 100% of the time. every image you try to show where it looks "better" is some zoomed in bullshit, where it usually doesnt even look better then. raw pixels look better at the proper zoom/resolution 100% of the time. you just look at the thumbnail of your retarded picture and see how much better the raw is.
>>219630633space exploration also became a lost art, no one at NASA today even knows how to land on the moon
>>219633467>cherry-picked good shots from Wizard of Oz>random/bad shots from Wicked that don't even have the right aspect ratio to properly represent the film>Oz was an absolute health hazard to make You fuck yourself.
>>219630728He wants twitter content somewhere he's anonymous. He's a coward with no taste.
>>219630633Zoomers are getting into old movies all of a sudden and not just watching 22 Jump Street all day? Good for them.
>>219634755The hazard wasn't the color and all the shots in Wicked look like that.
>>219634595Bro idk what to tell you. If you prefer the flat sprites and hard edges to the way they were originally designed for the tech at the time, that's just your preference.
>>219635149>all the shots in Wicked look like thatBullshit. Haven't seen the Wicked flicks (because why would I watch that trash), but there's 100% shots in there that have at least alright image composition.
>>219635311>flatthe colors give it plenty of depth and shape>hard edgesyou're kidding yourself if you think they look any different when placed into an actual background.
>>219635457>you're kidding yourself if you think they look any different when placed into an actual background.Oh holy shit it's a zoomer who never actually played on crt lmaoI'm not saying it's perfect but they did what they could with what they had technologically, and it was to their benefit to utilize a quirk of the tech.
>>219635539im probably older than you, just not autistic. go ahead and post a side by side comparison. your "hard edges" are fake and doubly so when you see it in motion. in real life you can tell the difference between a thing and the background behind it. you know what is and isnt the thing. "this filter is better because its blurry and smudgy" is a laughably pathetic cope. even when everything is blurred (both character and background) you can still clearly tell what is and isnt the character. being blurry and obscured in any capacity is not a plus. you're a sniveling autist putting old technology on a pedestal for the mere "merit" of being old.
Are there any recent movies that actually look colorful?The Barbie movie, despite it color looks flat
>>219632302>>219635311>>219635539

>>219636104adjusting the settings terrifies the zoomer.
>>219636029Our response /tv/?
>>219635944We moved on from gooner colors in film. It's not the dopamine-starved 50s anymore. And it's probably image texture rather than colors you care about.
>>219635944The Love Witch mimics Technicolor.
>>219636145>incoherent chud screeching
>>219635778>im probably older than youYou're definitely not, and next you'll tell me my 20/10 eyesight sucked and was the reason I liked it when in reality I could make out every bit of the vibrant fuzzies. I'd never say it's better than modern graphics but it's disingenuous to think flat sprites with 3-4 colors look as good as they did when run through crt screens. And I'm not talking about filters I'm talking about genuine crt you samefag.
>>219630633We canits just too expensive for what its worth>inb4 le film stockwe can just make it again if people wanted it.
>>219636288Not him, but stuff always looks best when displayed on their intended medium, which is why 720p looks sharper on a 720p TV than it does on an OLED ultra-4k TV (as an example).
i don't know the fascination of modern films to make everything brown and grey
>>219636153it insists upon itself.
>>219630633To be fair, that does look better than modern movies and shows today.
>>219636746Not really.
>>219636288once again, like a retard, you show an image zoomed in beyond proper distance and size where they both look like shit. while your thumbnail is a bit too small and should be just a bit bigger, it is still clear to see that the right looks better and the left looks like a dull mess in comparison.
>>219631455this was a good movie
>>219631055these anamorphic lens fags ruin so many movies
>>219638555>where they both look like shitthe left looks like it could be a photograph of tom arnold. It would look almost photorealistic at a distance. The right will look like pixelshit at any distance.
>>219630633the technology isn’t lost, light is cast through a specially made prism that separates out the yellow hue of of a high pressure sodium bulb onto two separate pieces of film. They’re combined or left apart depending on the desired effect.We use digital mediums now because they’re more productive and cost effective with less restrictions around how a set can be configured.

>Out of Africa won out over Peggy Sue... at the 1986 OscarsThe book was great but the movie sucked, Peggy is 10x the movie Raging Bull is, it was derailed by the Academy because of the comedy elements.

>>219634755>you fuck me i fuck you bloody basterd bichod
>>219641708Mate he's baiting, don't bother
>>219631187Bottom has more colors therefore it's better.
>>219631055Only zoomer who directed a movie is the one who just made Backrooms. And it looks fine colour grading wise. So maybe shit will get better.
>>219635944The Shape Of Water.
>>219631588>>219631480unironically a lot of early digital content made in the 90s to mid 2000s is just straight up lost media

What the fuck is technicolor, and why cant they just do it anymore?
>>219646240>Technicolor is goodYeah that's the whole point of this thread
>>219646795It's a whole process with three b&w film strips with colored filters and a special printing process to assemble a colored final strip.
Is Singing in the Rain /tv/core?It's one of my favourite movies and I've loved it since I was a child

>>219631013>dark ageYes, we're in the kali yuga>WW2 was the beginning of the endNo. We've been in this downward spiral for as long as we have clear records. Even the Greeks were plagued with the rot of disenchantment and existential angst, 3000 years ago. Read some Spengler and Nietzsche to understand. Or better yet, some mythology to gain perspective and peace with the way of the world.We're in the depths of the dark age. We're past the midpoint, but you and I won't live to see the iron age return. Humanity will work our way back up the wheel to a golden age again, over the millenia. And in the meanwhile, we'll continue to have sunny days and small reasons to keep going and strive towards a better future for those we pass the baton to.
>>219635944Unironically TFA, probably because it was shot on film
>>219650381Still mogged by Lucas.
>>219650381>black & white>brown & grey>ripping off ANH>brown & grey again>green & white (but actually looks pretty good)>black & blue>overcast grey (looks like C-SPAN footage of a parade)>overbloom orange>no distinct color>palest green possible>GET SO FUCKIN DARK IN HERE>FUCK FUCK COME APART IN HERE>black & blue again>green & grey (looks like CCTV footage)>brown & grey for a third time, and just the same shot as the 4th one>worst fucking helicopter pan in historyI liked TFA when I first saw it in theaters and only started to think it was bad when I realized how much it was repeating from OT and how little of what was being set-up was ever realized. Looking back the most interesting thing to happen in it that is completely unlike anything else was "TRAITOR", but we can't explore the fact that all these New Empire troops are volunteers because then we'd be portraying the fascists as something other than strawmen. Like c'mon, give me a fully developed three-dimensional character who is still fully flawed and in the wrong, I can be trusted to not idolize them. All that to say, the color palate of TFA never entered the equation for me even if it had a lot of great visuals.
turns out true art thrives from limitations
>>219650700Now for TPM>mostly silver with some blue undertone>green & brown, but a warm brown>black & gold>warm brown & black>pale blue & grey>black & blue>mostly silver with some blue undertone again>orange, purple, & black>purple & dark grey>grey & white>blue & orange>blue & brown>sandy brown & black>black & white>red & silver>blue & orange again>black & gold again>gold & warm brownThere is technically a larger color being cherrypicked here than there was cherrypicked from TFA, and it does create some scenes that have that beautiful coloration due to being fully rendered or matte paintings, I can't tell and don't care enough to look it up. It's been much longer since I saw TPM than TFA so I remember even less of the story from this one even with all the discussion of historical revisionists who come out saying "the political drama and stupid swordfights with the slapstick guy are good, actually", so I can't say whether TPM has the same sort of great visual moments despite a lackluster story that TFA did. Also they still knew how to shoot dark scenes so you could see what's happening.The real point is that neither of these flicks come within a country mile of any Technicolor picture because they both focus on Realism or Heightened Reality rather than going for the purely fantastical.
>>219652454*technically a larger color variety
>>219630633I'm going to see Singin' in the Rain tomorrow. I'm very lucky to live in a place that shows lots of classic films on the regular. Pic is the only musical number in the film that's not strictly needed for plot but it's so good that I can't fault them for leaving it in.
>>219634595Raw looks like she's dripping colors, even in the thumbnail
I do like the way the colours in old movies and tv shows look. They made peoples eyes look so blue!
>>219630633why do you keep making shit about generation wars you insecure faggot
>>219653923EYE EYE EYEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnQYtbbsJzM
>>219646930So you need to film in black and white to accomplish it? Yeah, no wonder nobody does that anymore. That said, there's no excuse for movies to look so muttered, dark and grey these days. Fucking blue filters.
>>219636172Any film techies know how they pulled this off?
>>219654146By not applying the desaturated filter in Sony Vegas
>>219631013No you're just a miserable sour cunt.
>>219631013Things were awesome until less than 15 years ago. Fuck off.
>>219636172This is what I thought of when reading the OP.
>>219630633we could replicate technicolor, but no one will do it because shit was expensive and they'd rather have shitty dei lighting fags light the scenes as shitty as possible and then send it off to jeets and then fucking put out the zero contract log file instead of actually color timing shit
>>219630793>Also, movies have gotten better overall.pretty much every movie released in the last 10 years has been unwatchable dogshit
>>219631187amazing how that 1939 movie looks clearer and more HD than many modern movies
>>219641708this one is always so funny to me. not only does the right look better because theres no blur or loss of detail and the colors are brighter, but clowns really expect us to think that bright orange magically turns dark brown just because of a mesh. white spots magically appear on the arm, the heel of the trailing foot vanishes entirely. what a fucking joke. you're either incredibly dishonest or genuinely retarded for believing your own pretentious slop.
>>219647157lmao thats some deep cope
>>219653923made in 2022 every shot would look exactly like the top right
>>219630633we have ai that can do it you stupid bitch

>>219631588>>219645514>Search engines don't work anymorethe search engine thing is intentional. google is public and you can read some of their internal memos and even before AI, I forget what year but it was late 2010s before 2020 the head of finance, who is indian, realized they already had like 90% of the search market so he told the head of search, who is also indian, to turn off all the tools that made google search good and shit it up so people would have to google something multiple times to get a good result so they could serve more ads.I'm sure they shat it up even more after so they could push ai
>>219636205You've lost the culture war
>>219632005most current film makers and photographers are fucking retards who do a bad job>we need low contrast so we have the most flexibility when color timing>doesn't actually color time and releases shitty log shit
>>219632217>You "people" make the silly claim movies are bad now, but are completely unable to give substance to that claim. You just treat is as established fact and try to get away with it that way, when it's only established in your own heads and not even deeply.the oscar winners for "best film" and "best actor" both lost money because they were shitty films no one went and saw and 2025 had the worst box office since like 1998 without adjusting for inflation cause all new films are ass and no one wants to pay for bad films
>>219634753there is a line in apollo 13 about that. one of the big things is a lot of shit from apollo was legit hand made and didn't necessarily conform to the design documents because they made so many iterations.the film shit is just because movie makers are cheap jews and stopped using good film stocks and do everything with digishit now the king of the hill shitpost is the same thing. ed edd and eddy was one of the last shows actually drawn on cel sheets before everything went to flash and became ass
>>219635944I think that's at least in part a stylistic choice
>>219636104>>219636146digishit looks worse than film
>>219636205idk why you yuropoors like feminism and trannies and blacks so much
>>219641722>more productiveit's literally just because it's cheaper
>>219631055>>219643040if you go look up filmstocks from when color film got popular until digital took over, the consumer grade film stocks were always high contrast and super vivid because people preferred that to true to life colors
>>219646795>What the fuck is technicoloran extremely old way of making film where they had like 2 or 3 different film reels at once because they couldn't just put all of the colors into the same piece of film like they can today >and why cant they just do it anymore?expensive. that's why they stopped using it when Kodak put out color film that could capture all of the color on 1 camera and film reel without splitting it
>>219650137good morning, saar!
>>219630871If you lived in the utopian existence of the 1950s youd probably think it was great
>>219650381>vision 3still looks better than digishit but vision 3 and the vision 3 stills films are still semi digital. like vision 3 and portra 160 and 400 are really low contrast because you're supposed to scan it and color time it like you would with digital footage portra 800 is the older vision 2 shit so it's way more vivid >>219655462cause it was well lit and shot on low ASA/ISO 35 mm film with expensive ass lenses. nice 35mm film is like 20+ mega pixels and 4k is only like 8 mega pixels. 35mm film is going to mog anything that wasn't specifically shot with imax film or for imax
>>219652259>Dim Wool is…
>>219630633I was watching some marilyn monroe and some 1960s U.K films and I couldn't get over how straight forward the movie was. There was no "millennial writing" uhmm actually that just happened shit. Just straight to the plot no gristle shit happening. Wish people made movies like that again

Technicolor is a renowned, highly saturated color motion picture process, famously used in Hollywood's Golden Age films like The Wizard of Oz and Gone with the Wind. Developed by Technicolor Motion Picture Corporation, it used a specialized three-strip process to create vivid color prints. It redefined cinematography before being largely replaced by cheaper methods. Key Aspects of Technicolor:Three-Strip Process (1932): Technicolor cameras used a beam-splitting prism to split light into three separate black-and-white strips: red, green, and blue. These were later dyed and combined for high-quality, rich color.Aesthetic & Usage: Known for its vibrant, vivid look, it was popular for musicals, fantasies, and epic films (e.g., Fantasia, The Adventures of Robin Hood).Color Control: The company, often guided by color consultant Natalie Kalmus, imposed strict standards on color usage in productions, ensuring the best results for their unique process.Evolution: Began in 1915 as a two-color process (red/green) and later matured into the superior three-color system.Decline: The process was expensive and required specialized cameras, leading to its decline as easier, single-strip color films (like Eastmancolor) became prevalent in the 1950s.
Actually even Marvel already did it so :shrug:
>>219653923the intro to this show is so good. they should make shorts that are just cool intros to shows like that one.

>>219661147What's the point? There is no agreed upon established standard for what's a good film. A more reasonable approach is asking you try to come up with reasons why modern movies would be bad, which you can't do. The old directors didn't vanish, the technology keeps getting better, and people have higher "media literacy" now as well.
>>219660789>chuds seething about muh woke in 2026, years after woke was dialed down to pre-Drumpf levelsWoke never actually existed, it was a right wing media boogeyman.

>>219661290Nah. There totally was a strong pop-cultural counterreaction to the emergence of Trumpism. Even before that, when Obama held race baiter in chief office.

>>219661712See >>219661706You need to get out of your mom's basement and get some natural light already, dude.
>>219630633They are free to watch Mario Galaxy.
>>219661732Of course woke happened. Why would you even deny that? The right didn't come up with the word.
>>219661732My biggest issue is when he pretended to be an independent who hates both sides and is above it all.
>>219661795There are no both sides in the political context, you illiterate child.
>>219660789What do you have to gain by defending Hollywood hymies on an anonymous imageboard? This is an honest question.
>>219661670You also >>219661732
>>219661309Vibrant colors are boring.
>>219661845I don't defend Hollywood anyone or anything in particular. You're wrong about modern movies (likely extending to modern media as a whole), and I'm pointing out as much, since I've gotten really annoyed by this meme (and that's what it is). So this is about true vs. false.
>>219661732I literally encountered lots if this shit IRL, but please, keep pretending.
>>219630793>movies have gotten better overall.
>>219661256tech has gotten way, way way worse. digishit looks like fucking ASS compared to film. modern cgi effects look like shit compared to fucking miniatures and it doesn't help they get sent out to india where the workers are worse than Americans and all of the scripts are fucking terrible because none of the WGA writers are white men anymore. not to mention everything is written for "the global market" and therefore can't be interesting or meaningful because it has to appeal to thirdies in yurop, india and china this is probably the worst movies have ever been
>>219662050The real issues are poor economy, the average and above average viewer having little to no market awareness, media landscape having shifted focus to other formats, and to a degree further loss of societal heterogeneity. You think movies are bad now because you can't participate in them anymore in the way you did before. You don't know what's coming out, monoculture is dead, everything moves way, way faster now, making you who grew up in a different era feel alienated. You rationalize your predicament by blaming color grading and the DEI boogeyman. What it all comes down to.
>>219662198>chud drivel
>>219656464lol you wish every shot today looked like top right with crushed blacksinstead all the shadows will be a dark shade of grey
>>219630793>calls your opinion bait>proceeds to bait the threadI can guess your ethnicity
Hays Code period films are all slop
>>219662348>proceeds to bait the threadI'm right, so it's not bait.>I can guess your ethnicityNo, you can't.
>>219662272why do yuropoors post like this?why are you faggots shocked people don't want to watch shitty global audience feminist dei shit written by women and homos?Why is it >we need more women/black/gay voices so they are represented in moviesbut then you get shocked and offended when white guys aren't into watching that shit? >you aren't the target audience, chud>wait, why aren't you watching the thing that wasn't made for you, chud?
>>219630793
>>219636205>collapsnig hollywood
>>219662272What part of his post was wrong?
>>219660082>its an extremely simple process by todays standards.It's not, it's labor intensiveWe can however recreate the look on normal color stock like what the Love Witch did >>219659226tldr; they used lighting exceptionally well>>219660437Also the trend in every facet of production today being>ehhh we'll fix it in postWhich means poor planning from the outsetShooting on digital means they can do infinite takes without thinking about the limitations of finite film stock so they have zero incentive to carefully plan every shot
>>219662422Must be hell living in your own head instead of reality.
>>219662457Like 90% of it.
>>219655244I do honestly think that hollywood increasingly havnig people with no theatre experience (especially on the production side but acting too) is a big part of why cinema sucks today.
>>219662460the reality is, without adjusting for inflation, 2025 was the worst hollywood box office since fucking 1998 because all modern movies are fucking ass. weird how you can't name 10 good movies from the last 10 years because all new movies are fucking SLOP. I was watching 80s and 90s anime ovas/films and they fucking dab on anything hollywood has made in the past decade
>>219662248This probably sounded brilliant when you were stoned.
>>219662544All of that has been addressed, but again: You're living in your own head.
>>219630633Hi Jerome
>>219662544>I was watching 80s and 90s anime ovas/filmsYou mean high-budget nihilistic gooner slop with terrible storytelling?
>>219661712why do you yuropoors feel the need to talk about American politics?
>>219661842yeah, there's the side who wants to take my guns and put trannies in movies and the side who doesn't >>219661909that's bullshit. back when filmstocks were popular, all of the consumer oriented films were high vibrancy because they were way more popular for the average person than the low contrast natural color professional filmstocks
>>219662636>yuropoorsWhat's this about? You keep bringing it up.
>>219662248no, modern movies are also fucking ass because they are written and created by committee, written by women homos and minorities and have to be sold to the entire world so they can't tell a story for a specific group of people in a specific country unless it's like black faggots who smoke crack like moonlightingLike >no country for old menis specifically a film talking about the experience of old white men and it has narrative meaning because it doesn't have to be all things for all people
>>219662277crushed blacks are cool. look at all the people bragging about oled inky blacks
>>219662669>wants to take my gunsAnd what good have they done you? The frog's been boiled. The second the government decides to fuck you, you are fucked. Good luck testing your shitty rifle against modern weaponry.>put trannies in movies They've been there.>>219662709>more chud drivel
>>219630793hey shlohmo whatcha doin
>>219662525probably why wes anderson movies are some of the only films that have come out recently that have been any good since a lot of his blocking, set and effect design is very stage play but a film
>>219636029lighting =/= color
>>219630793retarded niggerthink.
>>219662585it hasn't. you can go look up WGA stats, there are way more nonwhite and female writers than there were 20 years ago. you are just being a shitty bait fag>>219662624gunbuster has good storytelling after the first episode. memories is pretty good on the storyside toonips have weird pacing though
>>219662458we have computers to do the labor. its an instagram filter
>>219662680cause yuropoors are the ones who argue modern slop is good and they are the ones who love DEI and hate the president>>219662730>And what good have they done you? The frog's been boiled. The second the government decides to fuck you, you are fucked. Good luck testing your shitty rifle against modern weaponry.5,000 unarmed boomers almost took over the country. I think I'm good and you antis are scared>They've been there.nope>>They've been there.are you now arguing that no country for old men is bad?
>>219630871>>219630980>>219631434I thought it was pretty nice. A simple and sweet plot, and the only parts that felt weird or disjointed were the Broadway Melody and maybe You Were Meant for Me.
>>219662795computers can't do color grading, you have to manually tweak it. it's one of the big reasons why digishit looks so much worse than film both in movies and stills
>>219662793>there are way more nonwhite and female writers than there were 20 years agoThere's also way more things being made. So who cares? No one expects you to watch random Netflix shows.>Gunbuster>Memories Now THAT'S cherry-picking.You know exactly what I'm talking about.
Zoomers/alpha can't even sit through movies without being on their phones. They have no attention spans even as film majors, English majors and their wannabe novelists don't even read books. I know it's a Twitter screenshots but it's just so performative. They just think those shots look "pretty" but haven't seen the movies to realize they actually look like shit.We could still 100% replicate things like this but it comes off as cheesy and low quality.
>>219662825>TDS
>>219630793> Also, movies have gotten better overall.Why do they look like shit though?
>>219662897Get a proper monitor/television/projector, configure it right, and buy Blu-rays or at least use remuxes.
>>219662859>There's also way more things being made.and all of the things being made are fucking SLOP written by women, homos and minorities for women, homos, minorities and the third world>Now THAT'S cherry-picking.>You know exactly what I'm talking about.no, don't watch good movies, don't do it, that's not fair to compare good movies to bad movies
>>219662884what? I voted for the president 3 times, well 4 if you count the 2016 primaries
>>219663050>you can go look up WGA stats, there are way more nonwhite and female writers than there were 20 years ago>ALL of the things being made are fucking SLOP written by women, homos and minorities for women, homos, minorities and the third worldWow.>no, don't watch good movies, don't do it, that's not fair to compare good movies to bad moviesMost 80s/90s OVAs are abysmal, and the frequently recommended ones tend go be gore smut. You know that very well, don't you?>>219663067>derangement only goes in one direction
>>219662934I put Jurassic park 1 on my shitty tv and it still looks good. Yes the old one not the new Jurassic world cancer universal studios have been making
Okay, I'm getting tired of raping chuds. Modern movies rule, chuds drool. Simple as.
>>219631187>Use AI replicate the movie and "enhance" it>Should we use the fantasy style painted patchwork fields of the original movie for the background? Or the painted skies?>Nah. Just use real ass hyper realistic stuff
>>21966322180s and 90s OVAs are good and are better than modern animes and films, thirdie
>>219663263name 10 good modern movies>>219663275you're giving the ai monkeys too much credit. they literally cannot tell the difference
>>219633467I hate how people love bottom shit. I would have watched that one if it wasnt for the black chick and Ariana. I just do not like watching Disney nepo baby shit. Its also insane that it's based on the stage play musical and it's multiple fucking movies.
>>219663317see >>219661256
>>219631604You're literally a shit eating jeet. Your opinion is irrelevant.
>>219662753But color is LITERALLY just light.
>>219631354It's called X
>>219635944Why is it backlit
>>219635944If you get the shitty HDR version it looks worse. The non HDR version looks fine.>>219636288The reason CRTs looked so good is because they didn't have perfect static pixel grids like modern digital displays and the light emitter basically "increased/decreased" the size of the "pixel" instead of just color changing the pixel. This is why VHS looks so fucking good on a CRT.
>>219636161Liking colorful images is gooner behavior now?
>>219663353so you cannot. there have not been 10 good modern films
>>219658477So that's why it's terrible now. I noticed this happening back in the day and it's crazy that before you'd get like 40 pages of results and now you get 3.
>>219630793>Retarded nostalgia bullshit engagement bait.True.>Also, movies have gotten better overall.False.
>>219663520You can not come up with reasons why modern movies would be bad without massively exaggerating or making outright false claims.
>>219662248I hate sand
>>219663632I've explained multiple reasons why they are all shit and all of my reasons are correct and true based on the fact you cannot even name 10 good films
>>219663469almost like a faux analog upscaling for vigger screens?
>>219650248Fuck off ranjeet nobody cares about your weird religion. Can we please rangeban all of India Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka already?
>>219660437>>219636172Almost like DPs don't want every scene to look like the sun is in the room. It's not for a lack of ability, it just looks shit.
>>219654672This. The Mayans were right. 2012 was the last year of reality as we knew it from 3114 BC-2012 AD. On 12/21/2012 we officially entered the shitty plane of existence.
>>2196638482013 and 2014 were still alright. Only when the Syrian civil war and refugee crisis started, everything went to hell.
>>219664099No, 2013 and 2014 sucked. The Mayans were right and that's final.
>>219663353no balls anon, you're gay
>>219630728FPBP. OP is a fucking mongoloid
Anyone who unironically mentions boogeymen such as social media, Pajeets, woke, or AI in a post has given themselves away as someone whose opinion ought to not be taken seriously. You may as well believe in werewolves.
>>219664371by that logic I can mock you for that ugly, needlessly hard to read image you just posted
>>219664205>>219663848It started in September 11, 2001 where the biggest humiliation ritual was broadcast around the globe. The end of the world really was the beginning of the new millennium.
>>219664408No, it was December 21st, 2012. The Raimi Spider-Man movies and Teen Titans came out after 9/11 and were kino.
>>219663759and yurop
>>219664400Main difference being that the opinion posted in this image isn't shitty but rather good and truthful.
>still ranting about wokeshit over a year after that stuff was exterminated
>>219664408>where the biggest humiliation ritualpretty sure the bongs and frogs losing a war to literal africans and unconditionally surrendering to egypt was worse, or the nazis losing back to back world wars, or the bongs losing hong kong
>>219664408>Gen Xers think the 2000s sucked because of one day at the beginning of the decadeSorry you were too old to experience this kino, gramps.
>>219664461sinners and obaa were both woke shit. the new star trek show that just came out is wokeshit
>>219664408Pretty meaningless. I mean, there are boomers who swore America died with JFK.
>>219664504>>219664461You're both right and also not right. There is probably some leftover wokeslop that had been greenlighted 2023-24 and it will take a little bit before the last stuff in the queue is used up.
>>219664445The Spiderman movies lost about 25% of their sovl after 9/11 though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ozz8uxW733Q
>>219664545>You're both right and also not right. There is probably some leftover wokeslop that had been greenlighted 2023-24 and it will take a little bit before the last stuff in the queue is used up.you know what, you're right. it will probably take until maybe 2027 to get rid of the last of it.
>>219664373AI is mostly a scam, but then again you'd be surprised how much of the US economy was always built around scams going way way back. At some point they collapse and an economic recession happens.
>>219664568People thought the twin towers were ugly when they were around.
>>219664545>>219664576as long as most movies and shows are written by women, homos and minorities and produced by women, homos and minorities and made for the global market, it's still woke shit
>>219664598Nobody liked those things, they were half a pyramid scheme done during the decayed shithole years of New York City.
>>219664598Bitter, jaded plebs without aesthetic sense.
>>219664594it's just a glorified search engine at best
>>219664665I don't mind them, but I can understand for older people they stuck out like a sore thumb when looking at the skyline.
>>219664691Sure, the same kind of luddites that would complain about the Woolworth Building or the Empire State back in the day.
>>219656024Retarded zoomer

>>2196638482012 wasn't supposed to be the end of the world, it was supposed to be the end of the 13th baktun of the Mayan calendar which began in 1618. It just so happened that the 13th baktun was supposed to be the final baktun of a larger cycle which began in 3114 BC. So it wasn't the end of the world, it was basically the equivalent to the end of a millennium.
>>219664785people are such pussies today, man. we need to go full-time of troubles. round up all the political elites and execute them by putting them in cages and drowning them in rivers. bring back the guillotine. line them up and shoot them with cannons.
>>219631187The Sphere version looks eerie.
>>2196649352012 media has much more soul than 2013 media so it makes sense.If you were to archive the "History of the 13th Baktun," you would find both a leather-bound copy of Crusoe and a jagged, low-resolution screenshot of a Minecraft Alpha world in the same crate. Frozen would have to wait for the next shipment.
>>219630793Kill yourself tranny faggot
Also you guys obviously never watched Star Trek: TOS. That was a pretty fucking woke show for 60s standards.
>>219664848thanks pedo tranny
>>219630633What is this dumb goblina blabbering about? Technicolor was literally still in business right up until 2020 and its IPs and patents are now owned by Vantiva.
>>219666880he's talking about three-strip technicolor, which has not been used for shooting since the 1950s and for distribution since Apocalypse Now Redux
