entertainment companies promote the idea that people can watch movies over and over and be entertaineed by them every time, but that really makes no sense with any movie that has substance, it's more appropriate to the jackass / adam sandler / marvel universe set

If you hate everything, it doesn't mean everything sucks, it just means you're depressed and miserable.

gently caress da Mods posted:how about Wallace and grommet u fuckhead The work that was put into this movie is laughable because CGI can accomplish the same stop motion effect nowadays perfectly; even looking just like homemade materials. Now don’t get all huffy about how it should be praised because of the effort that was put into it. Art should be appreciated for its result, not the suffering that was experienced by its creator. As for the story, well it’s a children’s story with some silly gags thrown in here and there. Nothing profound.

Has anyone said watch porno yet If not how come no one said "watch some hot porno yet" I might recommend the classic "stop! My rear end is on fire! 2". A true classic.

gently caress watching movies. You need to cure cancer or something real quick before you inevitably ascend up you own rear end and enter the realm of the Elder Gods.

Zorodius posted:If you hate everything, it doesn't mean everything sucks, it just means you're depressed and miserable. It would seem so, but in reality the entertainment industry focuses mainly on the general population and what they can comprehend to be entertaining to make the most bang for the buck. If they concentrated on the small percentage like me, they wouldn’t make much money now, would they? Independent movies sometimes stray outside what is considered the norm, but even those movies don’t tap into what is intellectually required to be interesting to me because those filmmakers don’t have the right mind for it anyway. If they did, they’d probably make more intelligent life decisions to actually support themselves instead of risking their sanity to make a career out of movie making.

Another option is reading books because films need to make money to be good because they cost so much to tell a good story, what with travel and good actors and equipment, or they're exhaustingly niche indie films with tons of constraints, but with books you don't have to get actors or travel so you don't have to cast a wide net and get your story bastardized by investment-minded studio execs just to make it happen, hence more stories can be told with more depth because the reader's own brain is bringing all the actors, scenery, and special effects. Plus things like magical realism are hard to do well on screen e: haha whoops didn't see the post above while writing this so I guess we're on the same "page"

OP i recommend reading some film theory. that field is full of good general observations about how film works. You will find new ways to appreciate almost any movies you watch. It sounds like you are also put off by the scale of undertaking of even a modest narrative feature film, which I can relate to. I'd recommend exploring avant-garde films, which are mostly very quaint, yet explore ideas that conventional commercial films (even independent and/or foreign films) rarely approach.

Euugh. I think it's adorable that they let Steven Hawking play around at science, but at some point we really need to stop humoring him. I mean I could produce better research by butt chugging a bottle of ink and farting on a cocktail napkin.

I think it was more like the afterbirth, but semantics.
