WampaLord posted:That really is the vibe I get from a lot of people here and it's mystifying. I just don't go see movies that I think will be bad. Sure, sometimes I'm wrong, but I'm right way more often than not. The actual problem is that with all the seaboots, there are very few movies left for me to see.

Seriously, all of the movies that we discuss in here are a fraction of the total movie output of the year. There's just as many smaller films coming out that don't get as much press/exposure/talk.

WampaLord posted:No one forces you to watch bad movies. Watch the good ones and skip the bad ones. If you don't have a process for getting an idea if a movie is good or bad, well, that's your own fault. if they didn't spend time/money on bad movies they could make good movies. i didn't see rogue one in theatres cuz just the concept was stupid and i'm glad i was right it wouldn't be any good. i won't be seeing the definitely going to be bad han solo movie either.

If none of this superhero stuff had caught on, they'd just be making a different kind of bad movie. Don't see movies made by hacks!

We just forget about the 90% of poo poo in the past so we look back with nostalgia at only the good bits.

Most stuff doesn't cost multiple hundreds of millions if dollars tho. I won't try to speak for everyone but spending the GDP of a small island nation and getting a product that's below average or worse sticks in my craw.

The quality of the product doesn't matter though? Like that poo poo isn't even on the list for the people financing these things. Spend money = get more than you spent back is how this all works. The people creating the actual ~art~ in the system might care about making something nice and good and cool but for the money aspect that's a nice bonus. If movie studios could make a 1.5 hour of a pile of poo poo on a plate and make a billion dollars from it they would. And do.
