How come movies aren't smart anymore? I noticed how it went downhill after the 90s blockbusters, when Independence Day was a huge hit. Marvel made it much worse but didnt cause it.
>>222763393[Not my image, btw.]Because things which once were can be no longer, OP.Once a man has changed the relationship between himself and his environment, he cannot return to the blissful ignorance he left. Motion, of necessity, involves a change in perspective (and film-viewing habits).
because the intelligence of the average audience member has drastically decreased.
>>222763393yeah we're all geniuses here with sophisticated taste like Drive.

>>222763393International sales. Modern blockbusters need to be understandable for everyone on the planet instead of a single nation so everything is dumbed down and made easy to translate.
There was a rumor about COVID-19 affecting its victims' intelligence. I have no proof of that, but to me it sounds about right.
it is pretty funny that with all of the extremely fucked up shit that could happen over the couple centuries that follow in alpha centuri the christians fundamentalists end up being right
>>222764181I used to think Miriam was a bitch when I was a kid but the Believers end up being the only recognizably human faction once the tech starts getting crazy. Also going retard fundie jihad on the planet is pretty fun.
>>222763393>movies aren't smart anymoreWe must dissent.
You don't watch smart movies if that's your opinion.

>>222763393women took over writing staffs. It's all unironically women's fault
>>222763932modern Hollywood movies are failing even in International sales, specially in Asia
>>222763932>theyre dumbing it down - on purpose!No. this is the best they can do.
>>222763939The vaxxx has partially lobotomized people and destroyed their penial gland. Everyone who took it or was given it against their will or knowledge sort of acts like npcs and have moments of irrationality or blanking out that are unexplainable to non-vaxxxed and people who've not fucked vaxxxed people. It's very weird.
>>222765688Maybe it is now, but it wasn't before all the competent boomers in the industry died or retired. >>222765612Yeah
>>222763393>"why is thing not so-and-so anymore?">makes no effort to prove thing ever was so-and-soYou fucking stink. Like a cadaver.
1)People don't have much free time to learn about cinema and be interested in it so they watch movies just to distract themselves but they don't want to think about the movies.2) The internet and smartphones have made everything faster and people have lost the ability to concentrate.
Nostalgia/anemoiafags never make as much as a case for their shitty assertions, and you fucking midwits all eat it up. I loathe you.
