was it a coincidence or was the switch to digital cameras related to the decline in film quality?

>>
>>220766948
Coincidence.
Films are getting shitter because of generations of nepotism compounding on each other and boomers refusing to retire or advocate fresh talent, causing the entire medium to stagnate.

Older film tech weeded out idiots and retards since it was harder to master. Now any moron can make a movie using digital tech, and it all sucks because it requires much less talent.
>>
>>220767108
you don't really have any data to support there being more nepotism, nor is there any data to support the idea of films being worse than they were
>>
>>220766948
I think there could be a positive correlation. Shooting digital means that it's easier to edit later and you get as many takes as you want because you're eating through film with each one. Both of these could easily result in lower quality because less thought and planning has to go into the entire production.
>>
>>220767056
If kinda is. For if the movie requires the concerted efforts of dozens/hundreds of people, then the writing better be good enough to justify the time and effort of those people to put the screenplay on film. If you can just half ass and still get remotely coherent shots, then the writing can also be half ass.

Most good movies were adapted from novels. Today's lit industry only publishes women who write femporn, hacks who write genreslop, and non-Whites who write racial diatribes. You're not getting any modern Godfathers, Jurassic Parks, LOTR's, Fight Clubs, Blade Runners, or Jaws because the types of writers who wrote those novels are locked out of the industry.

Yes. It's easy when you have infinite free takes and aren't burning extra money because you screwed up a shot. Less original stories because no white writers. Franchise IP made by committee. Fix-it-in-post mentality. This laziness crept in and convinced execs it was easy enough for brownoids and women to do.

As a photographer who started on film, adopted digital, then has switched back and forth depending on my mood or the project, one thing I've noticed is that I tend to take a lot more care with my shots when shooting film. I'm sure that doesn't translate 1:1 to movies, but shooting film feels like a much more considered process that I take more time with. I noticed myself doing this years ago and have since tried to slow myself down and be more considered with digital, but subconsciously I just do it naturally with film and have to force it with digital.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if something similar is going on with directors.

go pull up the WGA diversity stats, retard. they are only hiring nonwhites, women and jews and nonwhites and women can't write. it's the same reason why there is a "competency crisis" in basically every industry. because big companies have been trying to shut out white men since 2008 at the latest and instead have been hiring women and minorities who all suck at their jobs

VHS. Video tape isn't film, it's like closer to a hard drive since it's stored on magnetic tape. it's why we can take tv shows and movies from the 60s and make them HD but then something like deep space 9 which was shot on VHS looks like ass and can't be upscaled unless you use AI
>>
>>220767525
Underrated. Now extrapolate this to the entire production. You can't change my mind that having a big ol' film camera at the center of it all doesn't have a psychological effect on the film. Surely it's not a central acusatio, but it's a definite correlation.

also movies didn't just go down. 2025 was the worst year for movies at the box office since 1998 and that's not inflation adjusted. if you inflation adjust it it was one of the worst years of all time
>>
>>220767794
TV was never shot on VHS, VHS is a home video format. TV used professional video tape systems like Betacam. Or even Quadruplex 2" analogue video up until the 70s iirc (or even 80s).
But in this case tape probably refers to digital video which was recorded on tape like DV (think of a professional version of miniDV which was a popular home video format in the 00s).

most people didn't have digital video cameras but DV tape cameras with those mini tapes were pretty cheap and accessible and would have been more accessible than 16mm or super 8 by 2008.

>>220767941

>>220767911
Probably early digital HD video systems which still used tape.

>>220767941
>it was, but usually not national network
No, this is literally wrong and retarded. VHS didn't even exist back then, it was introduced in 1976. Until the 1970s the only video system used professionally in television was Quadruplex. Shows like Twilight Zone were shot on film and not taped on video.
Stop talking about things you don't know.

>deep space 9 was shot on magnetic tape
VHS is not synonymous with "magnetic tape". It's a specific format, there have been dozens over the years.

Deep Space Nine was not taped. It was shot on film. Like almost all single-camera fiction was on US television up until the 00s/10s. Lots of multi-camera (ie sitcoms) was also shot on film like King of Queens or Two and a half Men.

Holy shit you people need to stop talking about these things you don't understand.
>>
>>220768166
Ok but that was a shitty show literally bottom of the barrel. What's your point?
>>
>>220768194
soap operas were also shot on magnetic tape so they could turn around episodes quicker and those all look like complete ass too
you said no tv shows were shot on magnetic tape
>>
>>220767669
>>220767736
I didn't say there were fake.
They're clearly wga stats for tv shows. This ignores every single film.
They're also clearly stats purely by title across tv shows, not by credits per episode.
So if a show has 8 writers and 10 episodes and 6 of those episodes are written by 4 white guys while the other 4 are written by women/minorities, these stats would say there was a 50/50 split between the two groups despite white men writing the majority of the episodes.
>inb4 kvetching about how that doesn't matter
Additionally, those same stats clearly show that white men are still executive producers or showrunners in over 70% of situations. Showrunners aren't credited as staff writers because they're show runners, going back to my point about episode credits themselves.
>tldr; learn to read
>>
>>220768225

No, I did not say that.

>>220768054
>there are a ton of movies and TV shows that have come out in the last decade that have like a 99% critic score and like a 5% audience score. vidya is the same way, the better the score IGN gives a game the worse the game is
yeah but has the average audience score gone down on RT? or gone down on IMDB?
>>
>>220767056
That's true. But there is a direct correlation between the laziness of modern filmmakers and the general lack of quality found in human beings (who make these shitty movies) born after a certain point.
>>
>>220766948

Your premise is flawed. It´s the industry that´s gone to shit, not movies. It may be a subtle difference but the business of making movies and the practice of making movies are not the same. Big studios just became so big that in order to maintain the massive structures they are forced to play it safe and focus on big budget IPs rather than on author films. Additionally since the way media is consumed has changed authors can no longer profit from DVD sales or rentals which has lead to some type of movies no longer being made (or maybe they are being made but lack the budget to advertise or reach streaming so they go unnoticed)

As for digital, digital is a tool. Many would say it´s a tool that democratized the art. After all it´s never been cheaper to make movies. An affordable cinema camera can be bought for as cheap as 1200 dollars, an affordable good editing and post production suit is 300 dollars, CGI can be done entirely free, publishing can be done for free as well. LED lights are far smaller and easier to store and transport so you don´t even need to rent a truck these days. A regular sized car can see most things through. You even have affordable drones so cranes are a thing of the past as well. But you know, tools can be misused. Digital won´t make a good harmonic and meaningful narrative composition for you, it won´t light for you either. It will allow to tweak things later in post later though so it does allow second and third rate hacks that can´t get things right on set some breathing room. In that sense you are correct, but again, that´s technology being misused. In the hands of capable skilled people digital is merely the creative freedom that comes from not having to suck big hollywood suit dick.

>>
>>220768301
>yeah but has the average audience score gone down on RT? or gone down on IMDB?
To add to that, rt obviously didn't exist/wasn't a thing before like 20 years ago.
So any films from before that with rt scores are inherently skewed by nostalgia bias and fanbase brigading.
If I watched a shitty flick in 2001, I'm not waiting 10 years and then rushing online to vote how bad it was. If I loved it, I might go online to try and spread the word though. Especially if I'm frequently rewatching it.
I don't think you can fairly ascertain differences in quality through this
>>
>>220768403
so you legit think modern slop, which is unwatchable is better than shit from 20 years ago?
>>
>>220768350
>As for digital, digital is a tool. Many would say it´s a tool that democratized the art. After all it´s never been cheaper to make movies.
This is such a dumb argument. Budgets for mainstream movies haven't gone down. There isn't a flood of high-quality low-budget productions like there was in the 50s and 60s.
>Digital won´t make a good harmonic and meaningful narrative composition for you, it won´t light for you either.
>In that sense you are correct, but again, that´s technology being misused.
So what's even your argument? Basically it seems like you're agreeing with the
>film filtered out the amateurs
crowd.
Yeah of course you can still do good things without the filter. But the filter is still good because it prevents the bad things.

>>220768350
>Big studios just became so big that in order to maintain the massive structures they are forced to play it safe and focus on big budget IPs rather than on author films.
I think it's more piracy and losing money that made them merge and focus on the safe, big big budget IP films. Just my 2 cents

>>
>>220767911
all-digital workflows were still rare in 2008 because storage was so expensive and because studios were freaked out by the idea of something just being zeros and ones. purpose-built digital cinema cameras like the panavision genesis and sony f35 had been released by this point but they still recorded to tape and didn't get solid state drives until years after their initial release

This is not true.
The worst year in modern box office history was 2020, when global and domestic ticket sales plummeted by over 80% due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Excluding the pandemic era, 1997 is widely considered the worst modern year for box office revenue, dropping to the lowest totals of the late 20th century.
The global box office closed 2025 at approximately $33.55 billion, marking a nearly 12% increase from 2024.
At least look up your facts before blindly stating them.

>Shows like Twilight Zone were shot on film and not taped on video.
Which is correct. Single-camera fiction was almost exclusively shot on film. Multi-camera fiction like soap operas and sitcoms were often taped.

You can consider yourself utterly humiliated. Leave this board and never come back.

While the year managed to narrowly outperform 2024, it fell far short of pre-pandemic averages, which routinely saw yearly North American totals exceed

billion to

billion.

A lot trickier. A good film shouldn't be defined by how quotable it is.

This also coincides with when Peter Weir stopped making movies, though I don't think he's mentioned digital as a reason for leaving the biz.

That’s clearly someone who saw it and acknowledges it’s a movie you’ll completely forget the instant the credits roll.

Piracy is almost irrelevant because pirates are not customers to begin with. You can´t think of every pirate as a potential customer.

>>220768450
>There isn't a flood of high-quality low-budget productions like there was in the 50s and 60s.

Do you know that for a fact? Polanski still films, Verhoven still films, Woody Allen still filmed until a few years ago but unless you were in the indy scene you wouldn´t even hear of their latest productions until a few years after the films had been released. Forget finding them on one of the big streaming services. If that´s the state of things for former big names what chance do you think nameless young authors have? No contacts, no advertising money, tons of competition and festivals, which used to be their one chance at being noticed, appropriated by the Hollywood marketing machine to launch undeserving flicks.

Is it possible that making things easier to film allowed more hacks to become film makers? We're seeing it happen again with AI.
>>
>>220770490
It's possible.
But then consider the amount of boomer directors who refuse to retire and are just out there making shit. Megalopolis wasn't very long ago.
Meanwhile you have youtubers like Curry and Markiplier who are out there making films people actually like. And they never would've been given a 'shot' in the old days

convenience often comes at the cost of character

>>220766948
Film produces a nice picture even with mediocre lighting, whereas digital is extremely unforgiving with lacking post-production.
That's why Blu-Ray releases of 4:3 tv shows from the 80s and 90s look better than 90% of cinema releases today.
>>
>>220770812
Good point. Maybe old directors saw the writing on the wall and just gave up on art.

Workaholics used to be a YouTube show. The creators became easy millionaires. Meanwhile someone who wrote on Cheers and Murphy Brown can't get any of his show ideas picked up.

In the past companies would give money to young filmmakers who were actually interested in film and just let them do what they wanted. Now the corporation makes the film. Same thing in all art forms.

its super grim that the young promising talents are pretty much all youtubers who used their fame/money to make horror movies. Not talking about Stuckmann or Markiplier either. Talking about the guy who made Obession and those dudes who made Talk to Me and Bring Her Back.
