remember when film had artistic integrity and didn't pan to the masses?

what might happen if these geniuses were allowed to write and direct modern movies today?

I want to confess as best I can, but my heart is void. The void is a mirror. I see my face and feel loathing and horror. My indifference to man has shut me out. I live now in a world of ghosts, a prisoner in my dreams.

if The Purge were directed by Verhoeven, it would be even better than Robocop. instead, they made three movies without him and all of them are dull and take themselves too seriously. it's a shame because the concept is ripe for interesting dystopian poo poo to happen in them

with a few notable exceptions, hollywood isn't a place for fun movies anymore. and the movies that don't take themselves seriously make a ton of money (deadpool and guardians of the galaxy, most notably) :iiam:

Confusing and weird for the sake of being weird but you'll still pretend to understand what you just wanted 2 hours watching because you don't want to look stupid.

Except for the sequel where Robocop goes and visits his brother Davecop and gets there by strapping on some wheels and slowly driving down the highway. That one was actually pretty good.

it was a lot of fun and it featured my favorite cinematic character, Robocop, as he confronted the horror and responsibility of being a machine-man and a warrior for justice.
