movies...

am i the only one disenchanted with newer movies? like i am a huge movie buff i love all genre's but like i think it might be down to the actors ? like they have no presence, take pedro pascal he can't act, he just kinda reads the lines is the best way i can describe it and he is in EVERYTHING. i can't name a single actor unless its older movies i wasn't even alive for! so like anyone else?

I take that back! there is one Henry Cavil

Cillian Murphy in peaky blinders but later then that I am kind of not fascinated with most modern acting.

And https://www.equestriadaily.com/2025/07/live-action-my-little-pony-movie-in.html is a really bad idea.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small_Things_like_These_(film) is pretty relevant, considering they're digging up more mass graves as we speak.

naw, but i primarily watch horror films. most horror films are no longer releasing in cinema, exclusively on streaming services and such. and i still find great indie horrors every day.

Maybe someday people will make movies a lot more and indie will dominate over Hollywood

Although I imagine once "unreal engine 6" comes out that people will just make movies that way

Something magical about actually using a real camera, boom mic, lighting, space, etc., and having to edit it together makes it feel more authentic

i don't really watch movies or tv anymore. the last newer movie i watched was "Nosferatu" which i thought was alright, i guess.

The vast majority of movies are boring. Even the good ones.

They're all derivative and there's no such thing as a unique story.

I hate movies because they're painfully predictable. After the first act it's usually just, blatantly obvious how the remainder of the plot will play out.

I think I've seen like... 3 maybe 4, actually good movies in my life.

i kinda prefer hand drawn animation and practical effects so count me out of all that!

I honestly don't mind if i can predict a story but what most lack is the soul ! like no reason to care about anything in the story
