That's the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Modern movies really suck. They are either a blast fest of as much computer effects as they can possibly fit, with no plot. Or some dumb ass horror movie with some restarted plot. What happened to movies that actually take time to think of good plots? Memento? Fight Club? Good movies that actually take skill to make creative stories are getting more and more scarce.
well that's almost worse...it's the type of movie where the innocent protagonists are either killed or dismembered in some way and the creepy guy survives
There are a lot of good films still being made, 500 Days of Summer, The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Hurt locker (yeah has some explosions but its a war movie, still has a good plot and characters), The Men Who Stare at Goats, I've heard good things about Shutter Island but I have not seen it.
Those are just a few off of the top of my head. Every year there are going to be big block busters with huge budgets and lots filler because a lot of people like to go to see a film that they don't have to really think about they like to go watch cool shit happen for a few hours and forget about all the bullshit that they have to deal with on the outside world.
However every year there will be some very thought provoking films with a great plot, characters/character development, story arch ect. I suggest trying to watch more indie films as well if I were you, a lot of indies focus on these aspects because they don't have the budget to spend on effects and such so they focus more on story.
Cinema is full of different genres and each has their place and have helped shaped the way we make/view and ultimately enjoy films.
Yeah it's true that they are still out there. I just get a little overwhelmed sometimes with the amount of dumb movies flooding the market. I haven't seen the Hurt Locker or Shutter Island, but I've been meaning to.
I feel ya dude it can get a little annoying after a while when all you seem to see is the type of films you don't really like. However it makes seeing those you do that much better.
Sooooo is this like 2 girls 1 cup, but more efficient? I dont really get it. do they eat each others poop? I hope he has the decency to cut their tongues out so they dont have to taste it.
Aaaaaah me too. I woke up today and log on to Ns and this was the first thing I saw. I'm not able to eat since. Everytime, I have this idea in my head and it makes me ill. There's no way I'll ever watch this movie!
