What happend to the all the good movies? everything is absoulty crap these days. I rarely come out of a movie theater feeling that the director was brillant and cinematography was great. What happend to the cinematography like in The Shinning, or the directing in Blue Vevelt? I'm not saying that all new movies are bad just most of them, like House of 1000 Corpses directed by Rob Zombie was a excellent movie, the cinematography was amazing the ending was twisted and you got to love the music playing while people are getting tortured. Or Lord of the Rings, there's some good filming shots here and there a good plot and some suspense.
But then theres the shit movies. Movies that are given good ratings for who the hell knows , and there absoulty terrible movies all filled with hollywood shit (two people fall in love people get in car chases, guns, fighting, sex ) or (two people fall in love this whole drama cheating plot) almost every movie these days are like that.
If there going to be action packed flims don't make them so predicable and so Hollywood. Think outside the box for a change or try and make a movie people will remember and not do it just for the money, and get some desent actors and actresses while your at it.
