INDEED FORUMS, and glassdoor reviews before the astroturfing, legal threats.'
the golden age of shows/movies pre-2010, everything after that were replications of each other, and mostly filled with boring titles and copaganda militaryganda, funny enough started appearing around P45 first term. sci-fi had a pretty bad streak after 2010s, if any was remarkable enough to be re-watched. the decline of cinema quality correlated with the rise in streaming.
Completely disagree on the movies. 95% of movie advertisements are for the big budget, low writing quality blockbusters. More than half of my theater's current showings are typically original IP (or first-time adaptations) and the majority of award winners are original/first timers. If you're not seeing the original titles, I don't believe you're looking for them
100%. I just watched One Battle After Another, and Bugonia in the last week or so, and both were awesome and original.
Dune and Arrival exist during this timeframe and they are amazing. I’m sure you can find smaller productions that are also good. Oh, I also discovered The Expanse during this time.
Obligatory Fuck 45.
There's definitely still good movies and TV shows that aren't replications of other things.
