Rod Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 From extremely shallow, preachy writing, mostly nothing but CGI for eye candy mixed with little quips that are supposed to be funny, and modern hero’s that have the personality, soul and character development of a half dead cockroach. Just not much about modern television and entertainment is interesting anymore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin_dry Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Canceled Netflix last week. Price increase is coming next month and nothing impresses me about their programming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold War Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Yes! It is a shame what they have done. At least before you could rely on indie movies, but not anymore. The comedy is dead. Every new movie is just a infomercial on SJW ing. Absolutely nothing to with entertainment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sleepybrew Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 i know for sure i am tired of the hollywood crowd. between them and cancel culture the new stuff sucks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bontz Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Agreed ... it seems to be pretty far & few between when it comes to actual movies & my willingness to spend money on going to a movie theater. I never thought I'd say it, but the majority of the good ones are actually kids movies (like Pixar type movies). When Hollywood is so inept that all it can do is rely on remakes, you know it's worthless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I would watch old movies over the crap made now. Tommy Boy Uncle Buck Etc etc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
low-1 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Been saying this for a long time. Movies from the late 80s, 90s and into the very start of the 2000s relied on good writing, character and plot development, actual content. Now its all about how far they can push the special effects and not much else. Give me an 80s/90s comedy any day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave it to my dad who likes westerns. Never told him what it was. I asked him a few days later what he thought of it and he just grinned and chuckled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
