gayer than insulting the quality of the newest art form in existence

tallerman PLEASE STOP MAKING UP STUPID THREADS THAT NOBODY READS OR LOOKS AT!! IT'S GETTING OLD...FAST!!!!

This could be made in to an interesting thread actually as he does have a point, I think CGI is to blame to be honest, I mean how much CGI is in Shawshank, The Godfather, Good fellas, Pulp Fiction, God Bad and The Ugly etc.The popcorn summer blockbusters are always the films everyone forgets about.

CGI
Lack of fresh ideas-rehashing old movies
Lack of traditionally trained actors...i.e. using entertainers in movies vs. real actors and actresses.
Lack of quality writers.
-
I like the stage trained actor type from 1950s star wars.

You forgot to add music Chief.

The truth here. Consider though, if people continue watching garbage...why strive to make something else? It's just a business like anything.
I just find it hard to believe, with all the scripts in the world, the most horrid films are somehow produced. It's about getting in with a studio, your shitty films keep getting made.
The no name guy with a good script, nobody pays attention too. Hollywood isnt' interest in creating something great or of substance, just about making money. People only perpetuate it by going to the movies spending $15 to watch CGI.
Could I write a great script...fuck no. ;D

The same goes for most of what passes for "music" nowadays... :(
-
Oh, you did mention music Croatch.

TV too...
What happened to shows like family ties and Mamma's family..
-

Yes, even worse than film. This generation will leave behind computer animation and horrid sequence "music". Fucking sad.
-
As most of you know, I used to do alot of stage theater...I'm fucking appalled when I see untrained entertainers in movies just because they provide star power for an already SUCK movie...Oh fuck yeah...Music is just as bad...TV because of reality shows...
Is this what it's like to get old? I'm complaining about everything...
-
Don't blame the CGI, blame the over the top 5 minute gas explosions occuring every 15 minutes
FYI: most REAL explosions don't involve fire or flame.

Complaining is fun, been doing it since 10.
I forgot about TV, probably because it's so horrid, I'd suppose it's just a given people know this.
A few good shows here and there, but primarily an entertainer for idiots.

Occasionally, something good gets through.
For example, "The Social Network" was an all-around solid film: intelligent, good story, well written and acted.

One thing I hate is the lame super speedup in msot horro movies today.
example: let me in
it must be an easy to use camcorder feature or something
so fucking lame
and the camcorders used for most tv shows look liek bad home movies
everyone is scared to show a man being take charge
since women want to pussify everything
LAME
men built the known civilization and tek we use
ya there we go
how come more movies dont show advnaced tek?
GIO JOE showed some but was very vaginal with badguy chick overshadowing destro etc
I do not for one want to see normal bullshit in a movie
I was to see super stuff
advance tek or magic or crazy shit etc.
very few strong kickass women liek sigourney weaver too
lame lame lame
-

capitalism is a great mirror
it gives the people what they want
when the public wants to buy sports cars........a dozen new sports cars pop up
when people wanted SUVs.........there was a bigger and more ostentatious SUV released each month
same with movies.............if people were going to thoughtful, Avant garde pictures..........there would be more of them
but audiences are piling into seee mindless rehashings of tired concepts, big budget special effects films, and sequals that are supposed to inspire sentimentality
...........but you can get into a whole 'chicken & egg' type of argument............are these media conglometates and big corporations givign us what we want.........or are THEY telling US what WE want
are media and manufactures dictating what we want, or are they just giving us back what we demand......probably a dichotomy of both
-

The demographic that goes to movies is very young. They don't realize the concepts are rehashed.
I think you're spot with your giving us vs telling us analysis. You have your liberal/Marxists in Hollywood who want to send their messages via film, but if the shit doesn't sell those people will be looking for another line of work. The studios are first and foremost segments of large corporation which have to keep their shareholders happy via the bottom line.

i could write a thesis on this
but in shot..........they media has molded contemporary society into a vapid, ADD, , junkfood-for-the-head culture that craves style over substance
herded like sheep, never question why
so we demand shit, becasue they made us this way
-
Many of us are guilty of going to see the remakes when we all end up hating them, usually out of curiousity to see how they mangle the original concept of the film.
-
CGI isn't the issue, it's the reliance on it to push the story when it should be there to compliment instead. Directors have become lazy and unimaginative with all the ridiculous remakes and cookie cutter scripts. There's plenty of movies I could mention where CGI was heavily used but because it was so seamless and helped compliment the story instead of drive it most people didn't notice it was CGI.
It's the same with music though as well. One band starts becoming popular and the labels manufacture 10 clones to copy the sound.
-

FYI: most REAL explosions don't involve fire or flame.
"Gasoline" explosions in films are Benzoyl Peroxide...it explodes much more slowly than most explosives so it is easier to photograph with standard film making equipment...and with photogenic orange fireballs that won't ignite other flameable things nearby.

I want to see a movie where the first scene two arguing guys one axes the other with a abttle axe.
then the mvies keeps on the same
awesome shit
fireball thrown by a wizard burning up a shitlaod fo tropps be nice

why?
http://movies.yahoo.com/
...for the same reason music SUCKS now.
All style no substance. Lots of expensive CGI and special effects....
*"Oh and I guess we have to have a story too right? Oh well that's not important, people will just look at the pretties and go "OOOO! :o"
-
People are to blame, the same people that bitch about the shitty quality of movies make no effort to seek out the good movies availible. Just watch some forieng shit always good stuff, because they sell to an audience that wants quality, if you goto Empire theatres or whatever you got it's all popcorn flicks.
