Why do "bad" 90's movies mog the absolute shit out of "good" modern day films?
>>
using actual film and cinematographers and crew who were trained in the techniques necessary to get acceptable and great results on film. you had to actually be good or you'd just burn money
>>
yeah… following film was a flop with mixed reviews that is largely forgotten…

Oh my science you stupid CHUD, how do you still not get it?

We just don't have the ability to make nice-looking movies, okay??? It doesn't have anything to do with "DEI" or "nepo babies" or "da jooooooos" or any other conspiracy theories.

>>220341867
yep, genuinely. "unironically" as redditroons say

they don't but at least the 90s stinkers looked nice

There was actual craftsmanship back then. Even if the movie was shit, people genuinely wanted to make something cool

Now its all bland, boring, forgettable slop pushed by greedy executives

Problem, bluntskull?

>we can add it in post

Because it was still a relevant medium. Today it isn't.

>>220341669
What movie?
>>
>>220341556
Yup it was the switchover to digital cinematography that opened the floodgates to endless ugly slop.
>>
>>220341503
Because the good mogged them so hard. It was a loaded bracket. They couldn't really shine when it was like Terminator 2, Jurassic Park, Stargate, Batman Forever, Mortal Kombat, Independence Day, The Fifth Element, etc.
We kinda had our hands full.

Fucking love Coneheads

>>220341503
because modern movies are treated like wallpaper, something to run in the background while you do your daily routine or doom scroll tiktok

>>220341853
>cute girl
>good soundtrack
>visually nice
That's all you need. People shat on it cause they wanted a full animated feature that was never gonna happen. They're the same cunts that've been crying about the gorillaz movie for 20 years.

Released pre-9/11 so it's technically 90's
>>
>>220341503
Same reason art direction sucks in modern videogames. Same reason the art in comics books looks like shit. Same reason pop music sounds like audible sludge.
There's no incentive to do better anymore. Maybe there never was, but at least the people of the past tried.

>>220341503
Because of entropy.

Movies get worse every decade. They stopped being worth watching sometime around the mid 2000s. Even the worst films from the 90s are better than oscar winners of today.

Because they were made with soul and passion. Soul is flaw striving for perfection. It cannot be faked. Everything mainstream for the last ~30 years is what someone’s idea of what soul is surrounded by spreadsheets and political rhetoric.

>>220342556
Jurassic Park is the only one of those that still holds up. Terminator 2 is good but the special effects are very dated.

Independence Day and Stargate are horrendous. Unwatchable today
