Why Newer Hollywood Movies Suck?

Name: Anonymous 2019-03-09 14:23

Why Hollywood movied are getting worse with with time? Just look at the side by side comparison of two Total Recall versions, old and new:

Also, I'm surprised they haven't made the protagonist black. At least it would have made the new movie somewhat funny. But as it is, it is just bland and uninspiring, despite having all the shiny new special effects, shown up into viewers face. Actors are boring, shooting is boring, special effects are boring and annoying. Even lighting is boring, and trying to simulate Blade Runner.

Same with Lords of the Rings: original movies are awesome, but later The Hobbit movies are a huge step down, even these old Rankin-Bass animations have more to them.

I can't really comment on this, because i don't watch a TV since mid 2000's and only watch youtube(game streams/recordings mostly) now, but the 90's movies/TV series were good, even comedy stuff like Married with Children that supposed to be retarded humor, turned out to be a gem exposing social decay. TV was more culturally homogenous vs internet.

X-files *sips* that stuff exposed alot of people to idea that shadowy forces control the government/three-letter-agencies. Xena/Hercules made lots of people interested in ancient mythology, especially greek and Charmed made witchcraft mainstream, Buffy the Vampire Slayer reignited late-90's Goth subculture.

But 2000's TV turned down the standards and started cranking out sequels and sure-to-profit stuff.
Its was going to suck with reality TV and low-budget pseudo-indie crap started to be perceived as high-form of media. Competing with internet didn't work, by mid-2000's broadband modems were basically everywhere and people stopped watching the zombie boz, trading it up to "information superhighway".
I don't feel much of a loss, its just natural that TV and Movies can't compete with online content - they rely on outdated cultural models and year by year get away from popular culture that lives online.
Sad attempts to paint internet as dystopian and evil, makes the old media feel out of touch, like boomer quips about smartphones ruining children.

smartphones ruining children
Smartphones do ruin children. It is similar in long term damage to if the child was born a crack baby.
