i want to go back when CGI was only a novelty and practical effects ruled the day i want to go back to a time when the best kids movies were lovingly hand drawn instead of soulless software generated talking barbies i want to go back to a time before capeshit, when super hero movies were seen as a camp joke and action movies were about hard boiled assholes who could exist in the real world if they weren't so lucky i want to go back to a time when teen movies were a guilty pleasure for everybody i want to go back to a time when film casting, script writing and direction weren't as utterly formulaic as they are now and have been for the last 10 to 15 years
And if you were in that time you would complain how that time is worse than the cinema and media before etc etc "OLD GOOD NEW BAD" has been a meme from the dawn of time

Eh. There were a lot of good movies in the past, but there was also a lot of shit. Your problem is bias - you only remember the good ones.
For every Ferris Bueller, there was another completely mediocre teen movie like Career Opportunities.

>There were a lot of good movies in the past, but there was also a lot of shit That may be true but even so there has been very little of value produced in the last 10 years compared to the 80s or 90s decade.
Cooper Myers
I disagree. A good chunk of the 90 is extremely cheesy and beyond dated. A year like 2007 alone is better than half of the 90s.
Andrew Perry
>There were a lot of good movies in the past, but there was also a lot of shit. And now there is just shit.
Blake Morris
Sounds like you need to educate yourself a little more about the 90s. Just because you aren't aware what's on offer doesn't mean it's not there.

Except there are no Ferris Bueller's anymore so your argument holds no water. Just because bad movies existed doesn't negate the fact that the vast amount of great films did exist. It's a meaningless statement.

Have sex.
Carson Allen
And a good amount of great films exist now aswell
Robert Campbell
Fewer and far between.

You first

The industry is fearful, if their movies are too uplifting they risk improving mankind to the point where they no longer need as much entertainment.

Never even heard of this shit and neither has anyone else.
Noah Smith
Not a single one of them is even remotely obscure, I mean there are literal Hollywood blockbusters there even.
The obvious problem is that you know nothing but what you're served with.

>dude the box office lmao! are you 12 go search hard to be a god in the Yea Forums archive and tell me how many thousand was it mentioned, stop further embarrassing yourself
Eli Rivera
>obscure weeb forums discussing obscure indie films is a relevant measure of quality Begging you to have sex and get a life
Leo King
We were discussing is it obscure, not is of quality. But sure we talk about the quality aswell not that you will ever watch it, which makes this entire thread that more absurd and pointless
