digital photography - it is ugly and that makes it a bad fit for a visual medium Wrong on this one. Digital photography is just a tool. What happens is that it makes things much easier and the process faster and cheaper than analog editing, so there's often less thought and care that goes into shots - "We'll fix it in post" instead of insisting on getting the shot right in camera. --- Aren't we all just a series of tubes? ...

studios using all of their resources on anonymous "directors" making movies about your favorite video game, comic book, 80s/90s nostalgia IP, etc over and over instead of moving on to something else or letting a great filmmaker do something neatThis isn't always a good thing, although I guess it depends on what counts as "neat."

Wrong on this one. and this thought process being so pervasive is why it is a scourge to the artform. had it never existed and we stuck with film, everything would look substantially better. now almost no one uses film anymore and shit looks fuckin terrible. the end. --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m02lct2g9l1qdlvg6o1_500.gif https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/1283-quality-cinema-club ...

For me it bums me out a bit, but Im almost 50 so I had a good run and can still just replay and enjoy the classics. In fact I think Ill pop in my blu-ray of Jeremiah Johnson tonight for another watch. Westerns are my favorite genre and I find myself just rewatching the things I love or watching an older movie I havent seen vs new stuff.
There is sufficient enough stuff out there to keep me busy. Its kind of like many people could go the rest of their lives on their backlog of retro games without having to care about the current state of gaming if they are dissatisfied. --- PSN ID: sled_dogs76 60" Pioneer Kuro Elite PRO151FD, Yamaha RX-V3900 A/V Receiver, Oppo DV983-H player.
