[@jeffthebracketman]

@ladyj7085 well, I will just speak for myself… Considering that this is the first time that I have seen him in anything but one of his comedy specials, I would think it would be both natural and obvious that this would come as a surprise. Perhaps, to anyone for that matter… However, your tone at the end of your post was both totally unnecessary, and indicative of YOUR personality… One of condescension and arrogance… There was absolutely no need for you to insult anyone on this thread…

I had the exact same reaction Jimmy Carr did to "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood"-- most of the movie, I was just watching with dread and thinking, "do I really want to see what I know is coming?" And the books thing resonated. I was educated in one thing, but then Y2k, so I go into computers, and am totally self-taught, so I read lots and lots of things I did not understand. So many times I had the experience years or decades later of *information* I had stuffed into my head, but then I had experience, then I was like "oh-- that's what that means, I can use that now". Information became understanding. It's vastly different.

[@ChrleBrwnJR]

In 1968/69 the "kids with beards" took over Hollywood. We were afforded the luxury of a DECADE of profoundly epic cinema pushing out of LA. As dumb as it sounds - it was like A24 was every studio. Art & Individually driven stories about PEOPLE - actual humans you know, it was the first time any form of Neo-Realism was manifested in American Cinema since the pre-Code era. It was truly amazing. The Last Detail, Chinatown, Cuckoo's, Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Last Picture Show, Easy Rider, 5 Easy Pieces, THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WIND- even Docs like American Boy - man that era was so damn magical. and that was just what type of cinema coming from the states. The amount of respect I have for Jimmy in his passion for cinema is profound - I love this conversation.

[@Deguello23]

Even some of the TV shows. I recently watched an old episode of Kojak out of curiuosity, because I remembered liking it when I was about 5 years old (and probably shouldn't have been watching it). Holy cow. There were elements of 'The Wire' in that thing, and not just because it was about a detective. The tone of the thing... I mean, it's also goofy, but damn.

[@alvinfew8711]

In the latter part of the 70s there were some big budget flops (Heaven's Gate one of the most notable) and once that happened the studios jumped back in and took the reins. The directors had gotten too powerful (as the studios saw it) and a lot of the studio heads that spurned the New Hollywood moment got fired and suits took over.

The production of video games seems to have gone in a similar direction as movies have over the past few decades. When I was a kid during the 90s, I remember having literally hundreds of pirated PS1 games. I had and incredible amount of games of all genres and I had absolutely no clue what most of those games were about, so it was always exciting to unwrap a new one and discover what it was about. A lot of them were really bad, but there were plenty of gems as well. These days, even with the busy schedule of an adult, so few games are being produced that I often find myself having to wait for up to a year before the next release that I have an interest in. Which is kind of convenient since it takes far longer to juggle life and games now, but it does feel strange how much game development has shrunk over time. Some would probably argue that it's simply become more about quality than quantity, but if I had been a teenager right now, I'd definitely prefer the amount of options that I had as a kid. The drastic decrease in "double A" games over the past 15-20 years is particularly noticeable. The market has become over-saturated with indies and a limited selection of triple A games instead.

[@cattysplat]

Even indie games have mostly become the same. All chasing the same generic audience.

[@wurble]

Yep, I've always been a big gamer but It's been around 18 months since I last bought a game for the PS5. I'm dying to get into something new, but there's absolutely no games out there that are appealing to me.

So true and think how infantile they've become for example age of empires now no longer showing blood or skeletons with cartoonish graphics, the same with total war, more narrow games half developed with little repayablity and extras as dlc that should be fundamental in the game. Remember the days when you had to work something out or beat something in a game to unlock a reward or hidden area? Now you just need to pay for it as a dlc.

[@reptongeek]

To be fair Michael Cimino didn't help. Given the freedom to make Heavens Gate, instead of responsibly making his film he chose to blow his budget and schedule and caused the near bankruptcy of United Artists

[@taliamason7986]

Accountants didn't takeover. It was the fact the Studio system inevitably returned shortly after the Blockbuster was established in the mid 70's with the huge success of Jaws in 75, followed by Rocky in 76, Stars Wars in 77, Richard Donner's Superman in 78, Close Encounters of The Third Kind in 79 and Alien also in 79 all shattered box office records at that time. To add to those the establishment of the rom/com courtesy of Peter Boganovich and Woody Allen which was essentially a modern continuation of 30's and early 40's screwballs. The trememdous success of small budget films such as Halloween, Dawn of the Dead and even Smokey and the Bandit that continue in the 80's. Basically the Studio system completely collapsed in the late 60's along with the Hayes Code after years of financial mismanagent, stupidly high budgets and many big box office flops kind of like what we are seeing today. One of those films been Cleopatra which famously bankrupted 20th Century Fox. That huge collapse along with the newly formed Production Code basically allowed a whole new generation of filmmakers a lot more freedom to express their vision and as result we got game changing films like of Who's Afraid Of Virginia Woolf, The Graduate, Bonnie & Clyde, 2001: A Space Odessey Midnight Cowboy, Buillet, Cool Hand Luke, Easy Rider, Butch Kassidy and the Sundance Kid and it continued right into the 70's. But the harsh reality is it wasn't never truly going to last that long purely based on the younger generation coming up and what they simply preferred as well the sheer lack of films that parents could take their kids to see. It was essentially a far more mature, extremely political (far more so than today contrary to opinion) and predominantly adult orientated era of Cinema that was responding to things like the first huge wave of counter culture in the West, the massive impact of rock'n roll courtesy of the British Invasion, the assination of JFK, a whole bunch of significant revolutions, and the final years of the Vietnam War.

[@johnsound2042]

Hollywood peaked in the mid 90s, but this began the golden age of TV. Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Dexter "most seasons", etc. TV could take chances on a project that could bankrupt a studio making and promoting a movie. Movies from now on will always be the "international no risk hit" like superhero movies, and TV and streaming will be the chance takers.

[@przemysawdobrzynski2590]

Not necessarily. Of course they probably never be as liberated and artisticlly ambitous as in the 70's, but Hollywood is aware that superhero movies fatigue is a thing. The problem is they don't know what the next trend will be. But they know we know they overspend on their projects so I think after these writers and actors strikes they rearrange their model a bit and let more risky (but still commercial) and cheaper movies to be made. They all saw what Barbie did - it was not a cheap movie, but not a superhero one, and didn't cost 300 mil. They saw what Oppenheimer did for 100 mil. Sure this movie is an abberation and there is no chance another biopic of this kind will make almost 1 billion, but they can make money on this. And last but not least they saw what Sound of Freedom did financially. I'm optimistic about the future of cinema. I hope I'm not foolishly optimistc ;)

Once upon a time in Hollywood really blew me away, seen it with my girlfriend and she didn’t know the real story so she had endless questions afterwards but I had the exact same feeling as jimmy watching it thinking oh god it’s guna happen and then it just goes completely left field and I couldn’t believe it, it was genius

I think the studio executives back then were guys who loved movies. Nowadays it seems the executives are businessman who can come from any other industry, they’re only focused on money.

[@aleksisuuronen5969]

Watching movie multiple times is just differend also for knowing what is going to happen and if you Really watch a lot of movies, like usually at the second time you might not immerse as much and watch more so the structure of it. Which in itself can show how genius something is, like with Fincher his camera movements are unparaller how precise he is with.. everything or how you see so much Paul Thomas Andersson's own personality on how he makes movies, Magnolia ofc clearly being the most closest to personal in every way but also you see him maturing thru his filmography. Second time since you know the story, you have way more time to spend on the little things and think about the movie in a deeper sense. Like with Haneke I'm always thinking about the movie days after since he kinda stops the movie at the perfect place and creates perfect amount of confusion and elements of why (they are there but not given to you). Then it makes you come back to it. Another is Lars Von Trier that can take very spesific topics and since he is chronically depressed it's thru that lense so there is a lot of beautifull pain which is why his movies can also be hard to watch. He just knows how to make a beautifull looking movie to contrast what is shown. Then there just is that thing of the perspective being way differend if you are 15 or 30 or whatever age. Some movies I feel like they blew my mind more when I was younger even tho it would be watching it with more surface level eye ofcourse. Like I watches The Matrix everyday For Weeks. Like I was 16 when No Country for Old Men came and it's one of those, but then also at the ending I get the themes as older way better, so in that sense it just is way better afterwards. Then again when I saw The Departed a year before in theaters, no matter if it still holds up for me it was one of the best movie experiences I have had, especially since you Never killed the main-character like that in US movies even if you manage to tie the loose ends of the plot. Especially in a bigger sized movie, especially when DiCaprio is in the lead. It was like actually a complete shock in the theater of did That just happen. No Country did it too but not like that and it's presented way more suddle by the wife's mother blabbering to the mexicans where they are heading to hide. Coen's Burn After Reading did then again do it too but it was a side-character but the suprise came more from it being Brad Pitt being offed like that, saw it also in theaters. It's not even about a gimmics or whatever it becomes afterwards but I appreachiate pushing the envelope in hollywood system. Doing something unexpected. These days studios just don't want to gamble and every movie is a literal gamble, then mix sociopolitical articles pressure into it and everything becomes bland and boring. They wouldn't make a movie like Nightcrawler today because it relies so much on one white man lead character actor and if you don't get the mood from the script, it's a goner before even starting to do it.

Well the 70's movies happened because the last bits of the old studio system gave way because movie attendance was dropping in the late 60's and when Easy Rider hit the studio execs realized they didn't know what people actually wanted to see so they gave filmmakers free license for awhile. The "auteur" thing. By the 80's the freedom was limited as the executives started to think they had a better handle on things unfortunately. The 90's was like a smaller less adventurous version of the 70's imo.

1980's Cinema: I love Quintin Tarantino's films and I love 1970's Cinema, however the 1980's were the Greatest Decade for films followed by the 1990's. Let me count the examples where the 1980's had the best films. Steven Spielberg, George Lucas, John Landis, James Cameron, Ridley Scott, David Cronenberg, David Lynch, Early Spike Lee, Eddie Murphy Comedies, Ron Howard, Star Wars Sequels, Indiana Jones, Robert Zemeckis and Back to the Future, Terminator, Aliens, John Hughes, The Bratpack, Oliver Stone, Paul Schrader, Martin Scorsese, Brian De Palma, Luc Besson, Andrzej Zulawski and the Cinema Du Luc. The 1980's were a great era for films that came out of Hollywood and the Studio system, also France and the UK, and 1000's of Independent films, many from Sundance. And I feel that these films hold up well compared to the 1970's. Late 1970's films I believe hold up well, but not so much the early 70's except Clint Eastwood. Of course films were great in the 1990's, because it was all a rehash of the 70's and 80's. The Exploitation, Grindhouse and Hardcore Pornography of the early 1970's is not something to celebrate. Preserve and watch these films and there's some gems. By the late 1980's it was a rehash of the Early 1970's with Exploitation Horror films but even gorier, darker, sadistic and violent for the VHS audience. In the 1990's, it was a balance of what worked in the 70's and 80's. The early 2000's were a return to Pornography, Exploitation and Torture Gore becoming mainstream. Was this a good thing? It seems every 20 years, we rehash the same things and same tropes, the only difference is technology.
