I miss late 90s to early 2000s flicks. I can't explain it but these movies have a special kind of energy. Why can't filmmakers replicate the feel?
9/11 took everything from us
>>220934603When you try to replicate something the audience picks up on the fake artificial nature of it. Also people in the current movie industry are talentless hacks, which doesn't help.
>>220934603Grow up, manchild.
>>220934603
>>220934788angie and cage are both nepo babies lol
The gossip film is unheard of, try it.
>>220934603hands on your knees
>>220934603Because now they have replaced cool white men and beautiful sexy women with genderqueer mystery meat girlbosses
>>220934603DEI hires ruin everything
>>220934802In cages defense he's tried as hard as he could to not try and cash in on being a copola. And he's had a great career where he's done everything from some legitimately gut wrenching dramatic performances to some of the goofiest hammiest most enjoyable shit in the world.
Are we doing it?
>>220934603>these movies have a special kind of energyEverything did back then. Go watch a few travel documentaries from that era and compare what tourism was like back then to what it's like now.

>>220936183Tourism now is just old Boomers blowing their pensions or influencers trying to make it big on Instagram
>>220936096I heard he is spider man too
>>220936059Are we not counting sphinx as dei?
>>220936183As an American, I feel like we haven't really accepted that we're a country in decline. People gripe about the decline of Hollywood but it's really just that this country's in free fall and doesn't have the money for nice things anymore. And other countries don't seem to want to waste capital on kino, aside from maybe South Korea and France.
>>220936324We have the money just not the competence or culture to produce good stuff.
>>220934603For me, it'shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHFFi-8mcvM
>>220936324After covid most people stopped giving a fuck about most things. Nowadays everyone just doomscrolls, watches sportsball and worries about how financially fucked they are. Even politics lost its edge because people realize that no party can dig them out of their hole. We're just waiting for the AI bubble to burst and collapse Boomer 401ks to kickstart the collapse
>>220936324The tech oligarchs have already won, now every country gets to bicker amongst themselves as the jeets silently invade
>>220934670Nah 9/11 did barely anything to American culture besides make us a little patriotic for a while
>>220934603>I can't explain it but these movies have a special kind of energy.https://youtu.be/kvac8XPOtYA?si=jMlJ7Cedj2Encosc
>>220936096>he's tried as hard as he could to not try and cash in on being a copolanot to hate on the nic but that was always bullshit. so what the audience didn't know it, the casting and directors did.
>>220934670Excuse me, but it would be more accurate to say JEWS took everything from us.
>>220934670You mean 2012. The Spider-Man movies came out after 9/11 and were peak kino. The Mayans were correct that the old reality ended after 2012 and we entered the soulless dimension.
>>220937478>The Spider-Man movies came out after 9/11 and were peak kino.no, they weren't. they were like the later stuff but still retained some of the quality of the old stuff. 9/11 is the correct date, he wasn't wrong
>>220937514>no, they weren't.They were, and so was the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie (2003). The Mayans were literally right, and I will not stand for slander of the 2000s based entirely on one bad day.
>>220937566>capeshit and mouseslopYou don't have any opinions worth entertaining.
>>220937566they are exactly as i said. the first pirates movie is good but it's not like there's zero good after a cutoff date, it may have been scripted much earlier
>>220937514Raimi Spider is fantastic. Fuck off.
>>220937595I can keep listing the multitude of /tv/ kino that the final years of the 13th baktun gave us, there's literally millions.
The FUCKING Wire came out after 9/11 and is one of the best TV shows ever made.
>>220936324Your culture has spent two decades turning on and being actively hostile to the socially graceless auteurs who used to make films and TV great, throwing them under the bus because they make DEI hire women who don't contribute anything other than politics and gossip feek 'the ick'.It has also spent two decades eradicating writer's ability to cover any real topics because some SJW somewhere might get offended on someone else's behalf.Now all that is left is talentless women who just want to tear things down or paint by numbers.
>>220937695no it fucking isn't, retard.
>2015>smartphones become mainstream finally>2016 election made 2012 debates look like eloquent discourse>2019 was just big fat shit turd all over realityliterally why do we even have apps like tiktok? Youtube hit its cultural peak around 2015 then the smartphone menace destroyed it. Post 2019 world is just offensive noise everywhere cause of the changs coming up with the most annoying and demonic application of the smartphone.
>>220937997Yes it is, zoomie.
>>220936096>it's ok because I like himHow quickly you fold at the slightest resistance
