Movies have taken a nose dive. I think that movies should be entertaining and not trying to brainwash us with DEI, PC and all the virtue signaling nonsense of the far left.
I just want entertainment, and if there is some sort of universal message that is subtle, so be it.
As, someone born in the mid 70's, and loved movies; not so much anymore I know that so many hilarious and great films would not be produced these days.
The same type of people who were mad at all the censorship and Blacklisting Hollywood had during The Hayes code( 1934- 1968) and all the Cold war era shit; are basically doing the same thing, CENSORSHIP.
Hollyweird still bitches about a handful of people affected ( Blacklisted) by cold war panic, now have tried to force their radical and many times just bullshit on the viewing audience.
The tone def, extremists have effectively killed true creative expression and destroyed the industry.
Do I need to get into the Snow White disaster? How about those in charge of the Star Was( not a misprint) franchise.
I own 1-9. 4-6( aka the great ones is a perfect example) I thought 1-3 just sucked, but Wow is 7-9 bad. Then all the spin-off disasters.
Hollywas( Is dying just like the music industry basically did)
You don't abandon your core fans to find a group of fans that don't exist and make horrible movies that alienate( no pun intended) in the process.
Also that creative indie spirit of the 90's and 2000's seems to have been killed off.
The Motion picture guidelines that caused and stifled creativity is hard at work doing if from a PC, DEI, and far left perspective, now and ruining or already ruined Hollywas.
Yes cds and dvds were overpriced but they are almost effectively gone. Expensive box sets and 4k movies aren't worth it, unless you have the money to spend/ waste on them.
Also, the effective death of cds has crippled the music business. Check out the stats. Same with dvds and blu-rays.
4k reguires a rather noticeable sum of money for what? Better picture quality of a limited number of movies.
The hard copies of music, kept the music industry at least somewhat acceptable, but now where are the bands?
Even Tommy Lee, asked something like this.
Politics, Corporate Greed have decimated the entrainment industry and this one can't be blamed on the right.
dvds and cds effectively gone( vinyl outsells cds which are basically dead. look up the numbers).
Movies, should be great they are not. No widely available hard copies of both music and to a lesser but still huge extent have killed the entainment industry.
To much tech. I want cheap hard copies of movies. Cds are gone and so there is basically no hope of Rock and Roll and other forms of music, gaining any following. Aka, fans of bands, singers, groups, whatever.
I am reduced to listening to old cds, getting free listening to music on YouTube or other platforms, but no new bands.
Movies are being destroyed too, but in some similar and some different ways.
Too much Tech, Politics, and Greed have destroyed the industry. Any hope of the great modern era started in the late 60's and blossoming in the 70's, and great movies from the 80's-90's and even 2000's are few.
Now and there seems to be no hope of a return to having great movies come out all the time; that is gone.
Movies like so many from my generation and older, that we enjoyed when so many great movies were made and released: Those days are gone. They are not going to return IMO.
Rant over.
