>WESTERN MOVIES ARE CAPESHIT

>Movies can be objectively bad or good

They are the capeshit of their time though.

>grandpa got pissed off from that earlier thread
>doesn't realize westerns were overproduced at an astronomical rate and exceedingly low quality rivaling capeshit
Just because they were macho and manly and not onions like capeshit doesn't make them great films. Especially not when there's a new one every week. Shit gets tiring. There's great westerns, dozens if not hundreds. Better than capeshit as a whole. Yet the genre is still not great.

>>WESTERN MOVIES ARE CAPESHIT
This type of argument is really common on this site
>make criticism of one thing while praising another
>user chimes in with "NOOOO ACTUALLY THE OTHER MOVIE IS LIKE THAT"
>argument devolves into nonsensical "no u" bullshit

I saw someone say "Shakespeare" was basically capeshit, once. Basically, if it's popular and is widely accepted by an audience, it's capeshit, even if it thematically bares little resemblance.

what worse is
>there are bad actors
>there are good actors

wisest anons on this board

Capekinos have won golden lions and oscars, cowboomer movies barely won a couple of oscars out of mere pity.

>golden lions enters into the Yea Forums lexicon for the first time ever thanks to Joker
I'm gonna be seeing this everywhere for months aren't I?

>dude nothing is great haha I win
Capeshit won Oscars in the diversity era, awards are meaningless now. Westerns won them when they mattered

>i-it isn't an award if it wasn't from 100 years ago
Boiling baby boomer detected

But it is? Same pattern of events/tropes/cliches: good vs evil, hero's journey, talented individual, combat, etc. It's a male power fantasy.

Dilate

The problem with capeshit is if the bubble ever bursts, it's almost guaranteed that within ten years it'll be completely forgotten, and nobody will make another one for a very long time. Capeshit offers absolutely nothing to movies other than "good CGI" and the occasionally clever story (and those cleverer stories are usually only tied to DC characters). Westerns are probably always going to have appeal, because, with a few sillier exceptions, it's set in a tangible, interesting part of American history. They're very simple good guy vs bad guy stories, and that leads to a lot of creative elbow room, although they are limited by the time period.

If people eventually asked the question "how much more can you do with cowboys and gunslingers within the same period of a few decades?", people are DEFINITELY going to eventually ask the same thing with superheroes (particularly now that the MCU is putting all its money into SJewing the cash cow they've built).

Nope.

>Childs was the thing because you can't see his breath / he drank gasoline
>Ferris Bueller was a product of Cameron's imagination

What you said doesn't make them similar in any way shape or form. There are no where near as many capeshit movies made as there were westerns btw.

Westerns are only interesting to Americans because it's the only time they can say they have a culture. And this culture involves using guns and violence.

>months
More like years with Yea Forums's autism.

Holy shit. Your comment just made me realize everything is capeshit. Every movie ever has those concepts. Every book, story and myth does too. Fuck, everything ever written or filmed is capeshit the past several thousand years.

because people forgot about harry potter
