| Topic | Was the MCU the worst thing to happen to cinema? |
| Zithers 05/24/20 12:25:44 AM #41: | Amok did a good write-up. The 1937 Fox and 1965 MGM fires also destroyed various one-and-only prints of films that are, like, gone forever. The death of New Hollywood and creation of the high concept blockbuster in the late 70s/early 80s is pretty bad though. As good as Jaws and Star Wars are, they inspired a bunch of idiots and led to the dumbing down of movies for drooling audiences to the point where we have people protesting for a Zack Snyder special edition and people sob over Marvel crap. And movies are, on the whole, pretty bad now. Less are being made by top talent and studios throw their weight behind vision-less stooges who make movies that appeal to as many quadrants as possible. No thought put into any aspect of filmmaking and all the focus is on branding and marketing. Lol! RIP to our culture! --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
