Been watching "bad" 80s/90s movies lately, they blow the current shit away
Poast new message in this thread
Date: October 20th, 2018 9:04 PM Author: abusive pervert mad-dog skullcap Not sure why but I am bored off my ass at new movies, basically anything made by a major studio. Talking about the blockbuster shit primarily. They are being put together by teams of risk-averse Jewish producers and each of them employs like 5000 unnecessary pecial effects people which bloats the shit out of their budgets and makes them one|wrong|move away from disaster.
Anyway just watched Robin Hood on netflix or whatever, and I can't imagine it being so well-executed if made today, and this is just supposed to be some ** movie or whatever. |

Date: October 20th, 2018 9:06 PM Author: abusive pervert mad-dog skullcap yeah and the way I set the bar is, "I didn't get bored," which it succeeds at imo. I've seen too many shit movies to even NOTICE whatever flaws exist in Robin Hood. If it were a new film they would fuck it up somehow, would probably put Robin Hood and Morgan Freeman on a sidequest where they raid that a casino like Last Jedi to "make em hurt" or whatever.

Date: October 20th, 2018 9:16 PM Author: Beta church trump supporter the 80s were a golden age of movies. the movies really seemed to flow naturally, the pacing etc.
pre-80s older movies, even classics, suffer from that Old Hollywood artificiality (the acting is so hammy, etc, even when 'serious') and shitty production values. and post-80s movies are all soulless special FX and gimmickry, to the point where the movies now are unwatchable.
the super HD grain of modern film has something to do with it too i think. it changes to atmosphere of the movies. like, Indiana Jones shot in some razor sharp HD style would lose something. it's too clinical looking. |

I have proof for this statement if you need it. |

Netflix literally churns shit out in less time than it takes to film said shit. It must just be uploading IMMEDIATELY once Shooting is complete (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4111432&forum_id=2#37064310) |

Date: October 20th, 2018 9:29 PM Author: Disgusting Soul-stirring Depressive Library this isn't discussed enough anywhere on the internet, but china completely ruined hollywood within the past 5 years. impossible to watch a new movie without noticing this. shockingly, they're all funded by hong kong producers and are 97-ish minutes of completely incoherent action sequences with stories from bad early 2000s video games.

Date: October 20th, 2018 9:38 PM Author: Dun elastic band site modern "action sequences" and "fight scenes" are completely incoherent and unwatchable due to the extremely jarring and bizarre refusal to hold a camera at a fixed perspective for longer than 0.2 seconds.
one of the interesting things about the 80's film "ran" was how the camera just slowly hovered directly over two clashing armies for an extended period of time. as though you were an airborne observer. you NEVER see this in modern action films. |

Huge similarities among same-model-year examples across practically all makes/models. Every 1969 car basially looks the same. Everyone copies one another. Everything is a product of its time imo.
