No amount of tariffs will make me interested in watching the stuff that American companies have been putting out since 2020. I'm not even looped into the movie industry enough to care which ones were foreign in the first place. Movies are entirely optional and I am totally fine just sitting them out entirely lol.
If anything, this will simply push movie theaters even further from my realm of interest all together.
Sinners was pretty good imo
One good shit compared to ten different types of diarrhoea
More like one bad shit and ten different types of delicious snacks....but you're only looking for something to eat in the toilet.
Just because you get all your media recommendations from ads on social media doesn't mean good films aren't released all the damn time.
I have ads blocked everywhere. I'm not denying good films get released. But nowadays all the good films and media come from elsewhere than Hollywood. Sinners is one good shit in the diarrhoea of Hollywood. Most good media now come outside of the hollywood machine. International films are just way more creative right now and don't have any hollywood backing. Until Hollywood cures it's diahrrea I won't be supporting that shit. If you want to keep on reaching in the toilet in the hopes you can find the one clean spot then go ahead, I won't trust a shit that smells bad.
Like exclusively listening to top40 radio and claiming all modern music is shit
Big "I don't like pop music and only know about 5 artists" vibes.
Media from [era when I was a teenager and had a lot more time to explore different media] is objectively better than the shit they're making today!
I had the same feeling. It was an elitist response that did nothing to educate or inform me or anybody else lol. I don't even care about movies that much, and that guy is expecting me to trudge through the muddy valleys and icy peaks of uptight counter-culture cinema to seek out and pull "good" movies from the depths of the unknown?
That's fine--ill just keep listening to my music and appreciating still art as I've been doing for the last 20+ years of my adult life.
