It's becoming a rarity. @MabusIncarnate is a good guy, GREAT guy Anyways TC, film hasn't stagnated. There's still plenty of original storytelling to be found. Games as a whole have plateaued though for sure I'm barely fit to stand in your shadow WafflehouseJK posted... Mainstream films, sure, but there's plenty of hidden gems if you look hard enough. I don't just mean indie shit that's only shown in 5 theaters either, there's plenty of really good wide released films, they just don't get as much buzz from people as the big giant action films, which is our fault as much as Hollywood's. Get Out, Black Swan, and Silver Lining's Playbook are 3 of my favorite films ever, all released in the past decade. Get Out's the only one of those 3 that most people have actually seen, despite both of the others also getting a reasonable amount of buzz at the time of their release. People have to watch and pay for the more unique movies, or Hollywood wont make them as often. They're never gonna stop being made entirely, but if you want unique ideas, people have to quit financially supporting the rehashes. I agree, but I think it goes both ways. I think too many people wrote off Black Swan as some kind of chick flick being it's focused around a ballet dancer, but it had some many strange and dark undertones with a thrilling conclusion. So many people also write off indie video games entirely when there's gems in those as well. How many people actually played games like Headlander, or What Remains of Edith Finch? Both were 10/10 titles for me, and hardly anyone knows what they even are and more haven't played them. It's like anything, if you want results, you need to work for it. There is stuff out there still worth investing time into. --- Ten million dollars on a losing campaign Twenty million starving and writhing in pain <cite>MabusIncarnate posted [p:904539293] in The proble...
