Good times.

Movies used to make you think. Now they shut your brain down.

Yeah. When Trollz 2 came out, it put my whole life in perspective. That was back when movies really had something to say.

Even goddamn Kurosawa would make a dumb popcorn film every now and then, and I'm not even sure popcorn existed in Japan in the 50s.

You can find dumb mindless entertainment from like every decade of film. The same with more thought-provoking artsy films as well.

That hasn't happened in like decades. There's been "popcorn flicks" probably ever since movies were a thing.

"Remember when there was real music and not just pop trash? I'm so in tune with the arts that I don't know what exists if it isn't what's popular with the lowest common denominator."

That's dead on lol. The diversity in art is so insane now, you have to really put in zero effort to think everything is trash. Our easy access to media makes so much stuff immediately available too.
