Modern Movies: Most of them are terrible!

what the heck are you talking bout! movies today are just as good as back then. not saying there arent any bad movies out today but there are a ton of horrible movies that are older

yeah suppose there ar every good movies being pushed away by bad ones

its just for the past couple of years I dont see a reason anymore for going to the cinema anymore, theres nothing worth mine or my friends time (or there rarely is)

I know there are good films with good plots for example pans labarynth the orphange hard candy, e.c.t

im tlaking about the masess of movies, I wud lsit but it wud be endless

Ugh, I totally agree. You cant even go to a theater and see a decent movie anymore. My friends are all “lets go to the movies” and I look on the listings and there is NOTHING worth seeing, ever. I don’t know the reason why this is happening but it sucks because my town doesn’t have much to do, but with have a nice theater with nothing good playing. Bo0o!

im mostly tlaking about plots

but I consider acting is better (in some cases such as the more experinced actors, not in all, seeing as amature teenage disney stars have the acting skills of a cardbord box)

Yeah, but the masses of movies back in the day sucked balls too :-) We’re just seeing the best ones that survived the era.

Now, any Jack or Jill can buy a digital camera and make a movie. Stands to reason that we will have a lot of sucky movies out there now, because the market is flooded.

Don’t even talk about the studio system these days, where bad movies push away great, but smaller movies.

My point is that the system encourages the production of movies these days, bad or good, and its harder and harder to make a good movie (pan’s labrynth) that will get a good audience, because bad movies push them out based on the schedule of the theatres.

That’s why I almost only watch movies from Netflix these days — I can get all the good movies (redbelt), and ignore the bad ones :-)

Plots are good these days too. Case in point, almost any David Mamet film.

Just saw “Redbelt”… total immersion and tension from the opening frame all the way to the end.

Almost all of David Cronenberg’s films are totally great.

Performances by all actors and directors are generally uneven. Some of Hitchcock’s works really sucked, while others were brilliant.

One thing I notice is that the older a movie gets, the more highly rated it gets as the years pass. Even if it sucked back in the day (which it invariably did).

…because the masses are more easily entertained.

omg hell yea I think the best moives tat came out are sweeney todd and the dark knight uter than those the rest have been preety shitty
