Don't know why but explosions guns and fighting bore the hell out of me. Comedies and non-fiction are the only things I find entertaining anymore.

I only like drama when it's mixed with comedy. Like Scrubs.

Most of them just suck. They don't know the art of the build up. You can't just have car chases and explosions every five seconds.

Yeah but like, have you seen the good stuff? The ones that build up and don't just throw explosions and car chases in your face every 2 seconds? There's schlock in any genre.

80's was peak for the genre tbh. I feel like these days it's either
- A superhero adaptation (and honestly these are their own genre nowadays)
- A sequel to a franchise past its glory days
- A shitty disaster movie (seriously are these ever good?)
- A gritty spy movie following the Bourne trend

I'm probably missing some other clich examples.

There are exceptions but there's not many.
