Film discussion, if we can even call it that, massively suffers from toxic nostalgia.
You massively suffer from faggot ass filler words, nigger!

Only nagging women and their effeminate enablers use the word "toxic".

I quite often look at games or TV shows/movies I liked as a kid and just don’t like them anymore. I lack the imagination I had back then.
>>220302913The Birds is legitimately laugh-out-loud terrible
>>220304805>I lack the imagination I had back thenif you needed imagination to enjoy something it always sucked in reality.
>>220302913Bing Crosby comedies in general.
Nostalgia for films doesn't exist because you can actually just go back and watch them now.
>>220304893I’m just more serious now. So I can’t entertain bullshit like John Wick and Mission Impossible. Makes it really hard to find a book or movie to enjoy.
>>220303375>Battleship PotemkinThis. The acting, editing, and directing, are atrocious.
>>220303064No thats another category, "It's good but it's become overstated because the current landscape of film is a wasteland, leading to contrarian zoomers to pretend its bad"
>>220303023This and 2001.
>>220305095>It's good butnta but it's nothing special, then there's one iconic scene, and after the scene is over it's back to not great
>>220302913Jean RollinMovies that are below porn in terms of competence and content (Rollin was also a C-list porn director under pseudonym and cast pornstars) and were correctly regarded as embarrassing trash at release and all flopped commercially, but he has somehow amassed a small but extremely dedicated following of “film academics” (former video store nerds trying to legitimize their fandom by writing a self published book) claiming he’s the most brilliant and important director of all time.
>>220302913Most Scorsese, Coppola, Spielberg, Reiner
Like every single novel you have to read in school, but as far as film? I'm going to say The Breakfast Club
>>220302913Avengers Endgame
Casablanca.
>>220302913MetropolisAnd >>220304946 doesn't apply since we don't even have any full original versions, only partial reconstructions made by film museums and preservation societies.

I watched Goodfellas again recently and thought it was terrible. I used to think it was good too, no idea how that happened
>>220304946This. Retarded bait thread

Me watching Citizen Kane as a teenager cause I heard it was amazing
>>220302913"toxic" is nuspeak and woman speak for idiots

>>220302913>It's good because its oldThis but unironicallyThe reverse is also true: It sucks because it's new.

>>220306126you were stupid then (which was justified because you were a teen), you are stupid now.Try to learn why something gets a pedestal before jumping in and base your judgement on your wrong assumptions
>>220302913Thing aren't good because they are old. They are good and old because nothing new is good and the only good stuff can be dug out from old stuff
>>220302913Sounds like you have novelty poisoning, anon. A common affliction of the homosexual breed. If a thing was good, it is always good regardless of whether or not it's not to your personal taste or you've grown bored of it over time. That other people are not as driven to find new sets of keys to be jangled in front of them as you are is not a flaw but the normal state of sane individuals.

>>220303064>>220303132>>220305095Heat 2 begins filming this summer. It is both a prequel and sequel to Heat. What is the general consensus on /tv/ about Heat 2? Iirc the shoot is scheduled for so long there is rumors Amazon is financing not one sequel but a potential Heat 3 set in South America adapted from the recent books. Heat 2 Cast confirmed so far >Leonardo DiCaprio>Adam Driver >Christian Bale >Austin Butler >Zendaya >Ashley Judd (flash forward scenes) >Johnny Depp (Waingro's father) >Tone Loc (flash forward)
>>220302913>ToxicKill yourself
>>220302913Wrong. Any honest man with eyes will admit that movies are bad now and they used to be good.
>>220302913Most movies from the 50s. They were made for retarded teenage boomers.
>>220302913A vast swath of horror movies.
>>220306616I watched Easy Rider at 16 or so at a matinee midnight movie in the late 90s. I thought it would be boring because old movies, but seeing it on a big screen was really an experience, just visually.And Reservoir Dogs is still funny if you like Tarantinos cool/odd/violent/funny-mix.
>>220308406Is Natalie Portman reprising her role?
T2, literal kids movie on par with The Iron Giant but with less depth.The only people who love it are 40 year olds who watched it as children.
>>220303057They may be massively overrated, but they don't suck.
>films from earlier were good, films today are badOnly because you're basically comparing the good films of previous years with the bad films of recents.You can compare 1962's Lawrence of Arabia with 2026's Mandalorian, because no one remembers 1962's Convicts 4 to compare it with a good film.
>>220302913the movies are good. youre perspective is bad because you saw all the rip offs and copies before you saw the original. imagine how funny it was the first time someone did the pie in the face bit. the original is still great even through the bit has become stale.
>>220308825that is part of it. and things like performances and editing have just changed over time. even if you are not The Modern Audience, you are a modern audience. some stuff has kept appeal over the decades, but much just has not.
>>220308815this falls apart when you can watch random films from [decade] and they'll blow anything made recently completely out of the water. simply because people tried harder in the past.
>>220308982Yes Ed Wood was definitely famous for how hard he tried instead of how many shortcuts he took to make corny visuals.
>>220304888There is little difference between the birds and birdemic
>>220308762>T2, literal kids moviehow many kids movies contain scenes like these https://youtu.be/dAeiT04ivEQhttps://youtu.be/cq36E_wTgqEbut i get it, you’re parroting something you heard as if it were your own original thought because zoomers were born after the fact.
>>220303132It’s been 31 years it’s certified vintage. The gap in age is larger than the Phantom Menace was to all these films.
>>2203089821.) they made bad movies in [decade] too, guaranteed2.) they had to try harder most decades, because making a film and turning a profit was a much bigger gamble and few even got the chance. so the ratio of good movies to bad was certainly better.

>>220309125>seething unc I’m 33 and watched it growing up, the difference between me and you is that I can look past nostalgia and judge something objectively despite it.The movie is a solid 6/10.
>>220302913No, it does not.
