    Movies are shit these days

    Is it just me? Or am I getting old?

    So many ordinary films the last few years?

    Just watched Doubt tonight as an example. So many people said it was good. Seemed like half a movie to me. The way it ended.

    People say 'it's open ended. it's up to you to interpret etc'. To me it's just fucking lazy.

      I agree, movies are complete fucking shit these days. Lazy filmmaker, unoriginal scripts and plots, one cheesy remake after another, one bad sequel followed by the next. But it's people's fault for consuming the garbage they give us.

        I really doubt that. The first two are completely unwatchable.

                I must admit,

                it's getting harder and harder to find good stuff these days.

                I think I have seen just about all of it.

                Doubt was totally mediocre, and the ending was obvious from the get go.. I mean it can only be so many things.

                Someone needs to open a good movie suggestion thread.. I need some overlooked ones.

                    Not sure if you meant this to be sarcastic but I fucking loved that film. One of the only movies from the last couple of years I loved.

                      That's probably the worst movie I've seen in the last 5 years. How anyone can like that garbage is beyond me. It's a perfect example of how quality has dropped drastically in movies, when dumbass movies like that are considered great films.

                        I know what you mean. I've got a kickass HT theater setup and buddies look to me for "movie nights". Slim pickings lately

                        Check out Felon. A few of us watched that and it everyone thought it was pretty good.

                          How many times can you tell the story that the bad guy lost and the good guy won.

                          I did kind of like the pre-underworld movie.

                            LOL well there you go. Horses for courses I guess. I think the Coen brothers get away with a open ending more so than many others. That movie had some great characters that drove it IMO... most others don't. It did drag toward the end though I will admit.

                            It was a film that occupied my thoughts for a few days after I saw it too... whereas most are just forgetable drivel

                              The only way to enjoy movies these days is to check out older flicks that you have never seen but are "classics"... you may not like all of them, but you know you are watching something original and well-made.

                                all of the 'big' movies are absolute garbage but there are some decent movies out there.
                                you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                                  It did have some good characters, nice scenery and interesting dialogues at time. But for me, a movie is only good if it sticks close to reality, if you see a scene acted out and you say to yourself " that is very realistic, I bet that's how things would play out in real life". I did not get this feeling at all from this movie, and I can point out a dozen things that made no sense at all. It seemed to me like a pseudo intellectual movie based on a typical action movie plot. Did not work for me at all. And the ending, well...

                                    I've heard good things about Gran Torino. Definitely going to watch it when it hits HBO/Movie Central.

                                    I'm a Clint fan though, from a way back.

                                            You want to watch something that is really good? Watch the first 3 season of The Wire. Better production, story, characters, dialogue, acting, and message than 95% of movies.

                                              I have watched many great movies this year. Of course most of them are european. Yesterday I watched a wonderful movie from Norway: "Du levande".

                                                I think you're on the right track. American movies are not what they were 15 years ago.

                                                  So many ordinary films the last few years?

                                                  Just watched Doubt tonight as an example. So many people said it was good. Seemed like half a movie to me. The way it ended.

                                                  People say 'it's open ended. it's up to you to interpret etc'. To me it's just fucking lazy.
                                                  What's wrong with open ended? I can appreciate that a lot more than being spoon fed everything at the end.

                                                    IronMan was the last movie I saw that was good. The rest have been shit.
                                                    You hear about a movie coming out and you say "cant wait to see that" and 3 FUCKEN years later it comes out and it's SHIT!

                                                      I agree to an extent. I still watch Christmas Vacation pretty much every time I see it on HBO.. which, for those of you who have HBO, knows that it comes on pretty often. I just like 80's Chevy Chase flix. I may be old, but those movies are just great.

                                                          One good flick I saw recently was "There will be blood" (2007, won 2 Oscars, nominated for 8)

                                                          Daniel Day-Lewis's transformation into that role was something fantastic to watch.

                                                            it started with all the music in movies.... as soon as they started using popular songs in "film" things changed.

                                                            now you can hear marilyn manson in the middle of a movie and songs in movies aggrivate the hell out of me.
