They've always been like this - you just remember the good ones!

Last year, I would have agreed. But this year Tenet came out and got heavily criticized. Now I totally understand why Hollywood plays it as safe as they possibly can.

Couldn't have put it better myself!

Star Wars, Disney, and Marvel. Or just... Disney. :( Bet they'll even own McDonald's soon

Brilliantly Said I was gonna leave a comment But you've said it all perfectly

majkus McDonaldization, I like that! Yes generic, bland and tasteless, very fitting.

darknight bat you can call McDonald’s very common denominator, but it’s hardly bland or tasteless. Their food is made to be tasty to most people. You could say that it’s all flash and no substance.

Exactly! We need to bring back the "middle class" of blockbuster

This is something that's happened in the games industry as well: its almost all either indie or triple-AAA. The mid-tier game has all but died out, and the A and double A classes of games have become platform exclusive

@@Pilchowski01 Personally, I blame the technology. Better hardware allows for better graphics. Better graphics require more talent and manpower. More manpower requires more money which, in turn, demands more revenue, to secure which, you need broader appeal...

The only real recent example I can think of that fits this is description is It, the budget was about $35 million and made $700 million at the box office and was a huge topic and very popular when it came out

Recently only John Wick movies do that

It would of been a good example, just skipped my mind

Or Soldier by Kurt Russell. They went against all cliches because Paul WS Anderson wanted to stray from the Hollywood formula since Rocky was popular at the time. Hence the sci-fi theme with actual space travel and a Chinese villain instead of a Russian (cold war influenced our villains in hollywood)

And it kinda created a new norm to imitate ad nauseam... Hollywood ruins everything eventually, one must believe.

Logan is the best marvel movie Change my mind

It's so tragic how the studio forced the Wachowskis to make both generic sequels.

Good point!

A better analogy would be apple&PC in recent years, where apple is the overmarketed, one-size-fits-all corporate blockbuster. If you want to get the most bang from your buck in terms of hardware you go with PC, especially if you have a specific purpose in mind, but if you want to cater to a wide audience of casuals you're probably better off with Macs.

@@AliRadicali fax i swear people love apple because its apple

Question is, why can they charge the same prices for lower quality, and the answer is: Propaganda and marketing keeps people from avoiding bad cinema. People are now consumers, not citizen, and consumers don't even receive profound movie criticism. Sad thing is, the same principle applies to about anything from food to politics to climate change. Only when you get rid of the TV and deliberately consume alternative media do you realize how heavily brainwashed average consumers are. This has by now become a serious threat to democracy and the future of our species.

its depressing how often i hear reviewers and fans that say "yeah the last one sucked but the producers says they fixed one of the problems so the next one will be better!" 20 times in a row. Just look at Sonic fans, Star Wars fans, and iPhone fans mindlessly buy the next product in a series even though the problems they complain about never seem to get fixed.

*NO WAGE!* Just buy.

I wonder if people even buy them after release. In the past we'd get excited for the disc release. Now it's just like TV, you watch and forget.

@@arthas640 It's like every new movie is a patch, like in a videogame. "Yes it came broken but they'll fix it."

That's so true, I've been wondering if I sound like an old fuddy-duddy to my wee boy.

My dad is old and he likes new movies too. I think he prefers them over older ones.

Yeah but then you got the guys who hate stuff just because it's new. I hope I don't become that jaded and bitter when I'm older lol.

@@LukeMotionz I think that it depends on the attitude towards life. Having a progressive mindset definitely helps. Being almost 40 i sometimes catch myself being dismissive against stuff young people do and like but in these moments i try to think about my own youth and how it was. How my parents and older people saw and judged me and my generation. (just think of all the millennial memes) So i try to keep an open mind about stuff. ı am surely a bit biased about the stuff that is more familiar to me. Even if i don't like it i try to give it at least the props it deserves. Ultimately i think, as long as i keep finding new movies, music and art that i like that is done by younger people, even if it is different, i think i wont be the grumpy guy in the room :D

@@LukeMotionz I believe that our biggest fear from getting old, is that we end up lonely. But, I believe we are now in the pinnacle of loneliness, so it can only get better. :D

Exactly like the MCU.

@@alibird7924 i have to strongly disagree with that. Simply because the mcu feels like the comics come to life and that is enough for them to stand the test if time like their comic book counter parts. Not all the movies will but the mcu in general will.

Because they were. Disney dropped Lucas’ ideas in favor of “something for fans”, which basically means the same thing we saw before, but slightly different.

@Brock Obama what about Hans Solo?

@@alibird7924 well I think that the MCU is different because there bringing comic book stories to the big screen and when they do that, they want to do it in a crowd-pleasing way. And a lot of the people who directed people's favorite Marvel movies aren't well connected to Disney. The Guardians Movies, The Winter Solider, Thor Ragnorok, Infinity War, Iron Man, and Endgame all feel stylistic and like real stories. The Russo brothers want to do more than make money.

Yup!

Agreed.

DCEU to a far lesser extent if you want to be technical

John Wick came out in 2014 and that has become the new popular action franchise.

@@DJUnknown2011 yeah but it's not a very big franchise. There is nothing else beside the john wick movies like in star wars, marvel or lord of the rings, etc...

@@thesmashgamer4896 you are right but very few franchises get as big as the mcu.

All fifteen minutes, summed up in one sentence.

Also I feel that the PG-13 rating also hinders these movies too.

@@rascoehunter3608 No that's the same fallacy this comment is talking about. A quick google search of great PG 13 movies and you can quickly see the very best movies ever made are on the list. LOTR, AVENGERS, INTERSTELLAR etc. So no, its all down to the creativity and skill of the directors and writers.

@@arnowisp6244 What I meant to say was that some film makers don't know how to use it more effectively causing some of the movies too safe and too clean.

Arno Wisp LoTR is good for a few watches to me, but films like Alien, Terminator, Fight Club, Bladerunner, Dirty Harry, The Godfather and several others wouldn't be on there. That isn't to say there are bad 13/PG movies. Jaws is ironically rated PG after all these years. Movies like The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly are also in the PG camp iirc. My point is that a rating doesn't much matter. Some of the best films ever made were not rated 13 and some were. If the film is good it is good, and one could theoretically argue that the majority of 13 movies are bad (as there are far more 13 movies than anything else). Ratings do create blocks though and some of these blocks make no sense sometimes. Like I said with Jaws, rated PG that has a man bitten in half, a severed leg, a dead woman on a beach and a dead child yet still rated PG.

Exactly!

People are starting to notice, but they aren’t starting to care. They go anyway.

We need to support independent films, art, writing, that’s how we get good new stuff. The old Hollywood executives are stale.

@@aaronstark5060 people place too much faith in something that they are 90% sure is going to be dogshit anyway. Studios don't take risks anymore because they know they can follow a formula and still make a shitload of money. Also, franchises sell, that's why they love them. Its why Disney paid an obscene amount for Star Wars. Because they knew no matter what they paid for it, it would be dwarved by the amount of money it would pull in.

Timothy McNaughton You’re preaching to the converted! I have this debate all the time with friends! Most recently, a friend of my was talking about going to see the Sonic movie.

that's the fault of the audience though, if people are so willfully stupid and lazy to eat this up then they deserve the soulless bland cinema they get. if i were a corporation i'd do the same thing since lazy storytelling like the MCU suits people enough to get a billion dolar box office at every outing , because people consume movies instead of wanting to let themselves engage and escape into a story.

@@milkshake26M Well someone is sounding butthurt today.

milkshake26M If think you need to widen your perspective a bit if you want to assert blame

Good point, should have included this in the video

I as a person from overseas agreed on that, and I don't like like how they made movies to appeal to us.

Yup. Chinese investors have dumped A TON of money into the failing studios, and ever since Waterworld failed domestically but hit big in Asia, they have been chasing those audiences since.

...Hollywood is far from high brow dear. Hollywood is about bums on seats, always. and the rest of the world has the cash for it. Hollywood isn’t being interesting or creative because it doesn’t line their pockets

Why do they have to be "dumbed down" to appeal to non-Americans? The international audience isn't any less or more intelligent or discerning than the domestic

Heck, even they're worst movies are better than a lot of the blandness studios like Illumination, Blue Sky, and Sony Animation crank out

I kind of hate it when lazy parents take their kids to mindless franchise films without also taking them to movies that might make them think or might be creative. My dad took me to a wide range of movies when we saw them in theaters, not just the same Disney or Disney-esque films.

@@arthas640 hey, at least some of the Disney studios try a little, what's worse is Illumination or any of the knockoff type studios.

2010 did seem to mark a turning point.

I agree the early 2010s was the decline. I would say that 2015 and on, blockbusters were dead or dying.

For me, pre-2000 is what was the golden era for action movies. A few in the 1990s, but mainly the 80s.

With the rising of streaming and such, I wouldn't be surprised to have both big budget blockbusters and more independent arthouse films released directly to watch at home rather than a movie theater

As someone who enjoys entertainment/spectacle as well as substance/story, I’d be willing to argue that Interstellar has enough of both to stand out among the crowd. Of course, it’s my favorite movie of all time, and admittedly the plot is both confusing and cliché at times, but I still love it.

The depressing part is there are quite a few lesser known studios owned by Disney, and Disney tries to keep it quite since those studios either produce alot of rated R stuff or are viewed as "indie" studios or are viewed as competitors of Disney. They own more mature studios like Vice Media, Lifetime, and A&E as well as "independent/indie" studios like Maker Studios, and studios that may be viewed as competitors like the Muppets, Pixar, Dreamworks, and Touchstone Pictures.

@@Dancestar1981 Gottem

I would still consider them blockbusters though. Also besides the summer around Christmas is the time you would probably see a movie. At least for me.

Also, it's not a "trilogy". It is one three-part movie. It's not like they made the first movie, with a self-contained story and then went "hmm, our first story was pretty successful, let's continue it" like in Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, The Matrix, etc.

@@denisl2760 That still makes it a trilogy. A trilogy doesn't necessarily have to have each movie be their own separate films with their own complete stories

Agreed. The "middle class" of movies has basically disappeared and it's a dang shame.

The video game industry faces this exact same problem (search for "Why We Need Middle Shelf Games"). What's sad about this is that is that these big companies backing mainstream media products are so accomodated by the large reach of its succesful properties and so accostumed to pump obscene amounts of money into advertising for everything they make that they forget that the reason most of these franchises originally got the fame they have were the actual risks they took (as in, either they experimented/innovated with its medium or preferred to deliver a focused experience to a certain demographic instead of a shallow one to everyone).

Funny how art imitates life here.

Center Row I haven’t seen any Netflix movies, but I feel like they could find a nice home there. On streaming services in general really

Walter Mitty is definitely an interesting one that has been forgotten and it's kinda sad. And I love How To Train Your Dragon and the heart they brought to those movies.

it’s ok to smirk I totally Agree

Me too!

Good idea!

Ooo, a good point! Making my metaphor so much better!

I'd agree actually, I like how TLJ actually took some big swings

Absolutely. But the problem is that 1) It was the middle movie of a trilogy and 2) His heart that went into this film was hugely divisive and oftentimes very contradicting to the established universe that pissed many fans off (including me). But you are correct that it wasnt a commercial streamlined product. But i do have to question why that particular director got so much creative freedoms with that particular franchise. The creative freedoms isnt necessary a net positive as the pitfalls are still there. IMO TLJ stands out as the worst SW movie made and i credit that to the director abusing the source material too much.

sensur1 yea that whole argument about it contradicting stuff always confuses me. The force is mysterious, we (just like the Jedi and Sith) shouldn’t lock it into functions and keep it from expanding. Stuff like that for me is brilliant, taking ideas and stretching them into areas new and untouched. Also, you should try to watch the film from the perspective of it as a self contained film. Just because you didn’t like the decisions made for the characters in the movie does not make it a BAD movie. I mean the cinematography, direction, art design, sound design, musical composition, acting, writing, and action choreography are some of the best in the entire series (and yes there are bad parts of the script, I know) Belittling the film to such a low point is frankly arrogant, when we have Star Wars films like The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones that are outright badly made movies. While I can go into a discussion about how George Lucas’s lack of input from others weakened the film, I feel that for The Last Jedi it’s single-writer approach take on the series compelled the series into something much bigger and more cinematic than if 3 people had input on the script. Seriously though, I’ve heard people say they didn’t like Infinity War because of how it ends. Hell I’ve outright heard people say the movie sucked because of how it ended. And I’ll tell TLJ haters the same thing I told them. Just because you didn’t like or agree with the outcome of the story doesn’t weaken the film’s intention. Also, if Rian Johnson has “abused” the source material than he would have done something like have Finn use the force because he “really really” tried to. Or have Leía start force pushing all of the First Orders ships around like they were air hockey pucks. Stuff like that would be damaging to the source, but I completely disagree that he did damage to the definition of the force, or any part of the established universe. He expanded it. Hell, Ron Howard did much more damage to Han Solo’s character, but no one calls that movie the “worst in the franchise” And lastly, I didn’t mean for this to start an argument, I merely wanted to share my thoughts on these common misconceptions about TLJ, I know I’m not going to change anyone’s mind at this point.

Also let me just say this to be clear. Star Wars toxic fandom has ruined Star Wars. No one hates Star Wars more than Star Wars fans. It’s honestly made my excitement for The Rise of Skywalker diminish as a result. It’s a movie series, not a 4 year degree program. (And yes, I am part of the problem)

If TLJ script didn't have multiple sets of fingerprints on it at several stages then I'm a pickled duck. And Rogue One actually got taken over by another director because it wasn't made by a yes man or Kathleen's pet. You think the biggest risk in the franchise (2nd part of trilogy) is the only one that wasn't heavily interfered with and/or had directors dropped from it? The risks were calculated for maximum shitstorm, it was just a bad calculation. None of these films have not been design by committee or at least design by Producer. The difference is Iger wasn't paying attention when he should have been.

Goooooood.

That's the most important step a man can take.

Unfortunately Quantum was made during the writers strike, which is why it was so short. I prefer it to Skyfall as Skyfall was a return to the silliness of the older movies, and it had come away from that, partly due to Bourne

I feel that Casino Royale, Quantum (the weakest), and the epic Skyfall were the perfect trilogy. Craig should've walked away then, job done, 50th Anniversary honoured. Even watching the first time, it was clear that "Kincade" was meant to be Connery, for example, that there was more going on here than just the next in a line of badly cloned copies. I can't see anything post-Skyfall living up it, or any reason to waste cash money on trying and failing to recapture it. At this point, me and Mr Bond, we got nothing going on

@@CenterRow it kind of reinforces my belief that some Comics should just stay as Comics because if you try to stick very close to the source material to appease fans the movies aren't as creative, or if you try too get creative with the movies there's a good chance that the fans aren't going to like it, kind of defeating the purpose in both areas. I think that the medium is under utilized with the potential storytelling that people know based on reading stuff by Alan Moore and Frank Miller (pre-300)

Definitely disagree about Guardians. The first one was stupid fun, but it was so in exactly the same way as the rest of the MCU. Silly costumes, flat, cheap, and cliche humor, mediocre makeup "aliens" and uneven casting. The second was so bad I actually got angry enough to shut it off 3/4 of the way through.

@@SolarScion I actually like the second one more than the first one. I say experiment because the neon color scheme, the soundtrack, and the comedic tone was different from the rest of the MCU at the time. Afterwards the rest of the MCU pretty much adopted Guardian's comedic tone, badly I might add

Ace Möwick Scorsese’s comments are kinda wrong(and irrelevant)from the get-go considering he hasn’t even watched MCU films. Not to mention, even by his own definition(which I don’t really agree with), the vast majority of the MCU is still cinema.

The ultimate paradox! Where complaints about things being to unoriginal and formulaic themselves become unoriginal and formulaic.

Nathaniel Yee not so much a paradox, just ironic

Pretty much. It's also a bit of a never-ending cycle where a sentiment or a huge risk taking movie becomes a cultural phenomenon and let's studios take risks before going back. Though, what is different is that the market truly has changed compared to past 50 years. 750 million Europeans watch plenty of American movies, but they have never been as avid blockbuster movie watchers as the rising Asian market. You can see this first hand in places like China, South Korea and Southeast Asia where teenagers are spending much of their time in multiplexes that is not as hard wired for European teens.

@@90sgrandad42 The MAJORITY of the marvel movies feel and look the same. They all got the same filters on them. The stories are rather standard. 1st movie, Hero origin story (in case of spiderman we had 3 damn origin movies now, sure the one with Tom Holland did it only briefly but come on, didn't need to do the whole thing again with being a new hero on the block). 2nd movie, Hero faces a enemy he/she can't defeat or so it seems but then gets stronger or another hero joins the scene and buddies up, this is often the movie were the hero gets introduced to the whole universe or gets a established team/partner. 3rd movie, come after they joined the Avengers or took part in other hero movies. Yes, most of the marvle movies are following the same standard route, having likewise stories, don't do much different from each other. I'm not saying it's bad, but seeing we get several hero movies per year these day's it gets a bit samey. I skip over hero movies that i have no interest in cause i'm not missing anything important for the Avengers story line anyway. I didn't see Captain Marvel till a few days ago and only cause it was on the disney streaming service (Netherlands has early access to test Disney+). I wasn't boycotting the movie cause of all the bullshit aroudn it, even without that i wasn't gonna see it in the cinema, cause it doesn't interest me. Now i seen it and it was as standard as a origin story you can get. They thropes of friends/people they look up too being the villian of the story again applied here. Yes Logan and Deadpool are different, but they are made by another company. They aren't owned by Disney Marvel but by Sony or Fox (yeah Fox now belongs to Disney, but not back then). We are getting so many super hero movies cause its a goldmine especially now that the Chinese market has opened up to Western movies. It also means mass production of these movies and little to no creativity in it that really tries something different. That is fine for action movies, it's not like the old Action movies were different but you didn't get 5 different Terminator movies in the same year either back then. You would get one Batman movie or perhaps a Superman movie and that was it for the rest of the year.

Explain how GOTG and Winter Soldier are the same, Or Antman and FFH, Dr strange and Ironman, Thor ragnarok and avengers?

​@@90sgrandad42 Tell me why i would bother to try and explain a fan of the heroe movies why they are all the same. It's no secret that hollywood is doing template work movies. There is hardly any creativity left in Hollywood, this is not a opinion these are cold heart facts. You love those movies and that is good, i don't say they are shit, i don't say you can't like them. But they are all the same, you some how feel insulted and have the insane need to hav esome over explain why those movie are the same, i won't repeat myself. It's just as it is, those movies are template movies, they do the same things over and over. Enjoy them, some are good, some are nood, but i said what i said and thats that, i can't be arsed to talk with blinded fanboys who will hold every little detal against you cause their brains can't accept people saying that their favorite movies of all times are doing the same things over and over again but you say "Well story x is different thus its a whole different movie". It's not, ironman and captain marvel, share much of the same stories just displayed differently with little alterations here and there. It are great popcorn movies, but aren't movie master pieces, and that is fine, there is plenty of room for that, but it's not something...fuck it im done, i won't do this anymore, goodbye.

Thank you!

Yes, only three.

@@CenterRow yes

jneotron I thought there was a new one

4 was not that bad really and I actually liked it better than 3 (At World's End felt a bit bloated). With 5 it was interesting to see Jack's past but otherwise it was a very 'meh' movie.

Thanks!

Thanks!

I humbly disagree, I’ll probably get hate on for this but I when I watch MCU films I’m usually bored

Lmao besides Iron Man 1, Infinity War and maybe Guardians 1 there isn't really anything special about the MCU. Even the biggest movie of the franchise Endgame was forgettable schlock. I forgot Endgame came out this year it was so lack luster

@@tastycookiechip You nailed my top 3, they are phenomenal. I still love other MCU films, but I watch those 3 regularly.

Personally I'd say Phase 1 to halfway through Phase 2 were mostly solid movies, the second half of Phase 2 to the first half of Phase 3 were fun but only above average quality for the most part (Civil War especially was really boring outside of the action sequences and GotG2 just felt like a letdown after the first one), and the rest of Phase 3 has been better but that's because it was building to Infinity War and Endgame and the fallout from them.

@@tastycookiechip Agreed. The X-Men films all had problems but they weren't just "here's [famous actor] dressed up as [comic charActer], *wink*. The MCU doesn't have a bit of believable world building.

You know what? I am too.

And I'm worried that people already have no idea how to use apostrophes. I never remember a time when people put apostrophes on plural words at random, and failed to use them to actually make something possessive.

@@SolarScion You know what? I am too.

Oh, good point!
