They need to bring back intermissions for long movies. I saw Lawrence of Arabia in a theater and it had a 15 minute break a little over halfway in. Made it seem a lot shorter. And double features. Why not just pair up two shorter movies instead of bloating something to two hours?

I just finished Nightcrawler and it was really excellent. I could have done with less long boring shots, especially in the beginning. But other than that, great flick.

Watched Terminator 2 today. Can confirm modern action films, even the "good" ones are poo poo by comparison.

I want to say that the writing of movies seems weaker. Also there is too much of a reliance on CGI. Sometimes it doesn't even look good. And I think everyone can appreciate the work of a good set. (Especially when monsters/creatures are robots or puppets) And I wish we could take back horror. It's soo congested, and even in the case of good ones I feel like you have to stream vs watching in a theater

ITT: OP is comparing the good movies of the 80's to the shittiest movies out now, and then whining about there being no good movies when he's only mentioning lovely super hero movies, or Ted 2, and ignoring the good movies like Memento, Nightcrawler, The Dark Knight etc. You can make anything lovely if you choose the worst things from it to look at.

watched a private showing of predator with friends recently and it was easily the best movie I've seen in theaters this decade. saw transformers 2 for free and still wanted a refund afterwards check out a smaller local theater that plays indie films and non formulaic turds and serves awesome food and booze op, i promise your movie viewing experience will increase a lot

Mad Max sucked. The music was annoying, Tom Hardy was awful, and nothing mattered. The only two American movies from the past six years that I can remember enjoy watching are Precious and Killer Joe.

A coworker said the other day that T2 would be a flop if released today. I'm scared he might be right. I'm worried about the future of our culture.

Bitter Mushroom posted:trailers are designed to appeal the lowest dipshits on the totem pole, and can be actively off putting. Don't watch them This is fact. I almost didn't go see Gladiator because of the Kid Rock bawidabaw movie trailers comparing modern sports to gladiator combat. Then I did and it sucked anyway... No wait, that was the sequel, Robin Hood.

i like it when a trailer does something new or cool, all the other trailer editors immediately get paid to rip it off. its america distilled to two minutes of loud noises and flashing lights, an ouroboros of meaningless garbage
