      It's true. I've been recently watching movies made before 2008 and the dialogue and writing is so much more crisp and clear. Especially the early 90s. Even the "mediocre" films seem like masterpieces compared to much of the film's made 2016 on ward.

    When I recently heard an actress of the Indian ethnicity complain and say, "it is about time we saw people who looked like her, in the movies." I thought, "Indians make up 1 of every 6 people alive on the planet today, but don't they have a movie industry called, "Bollywood," which produces more movies than Hollywood?" I thought! "what is she complaining about?" Then I realized, "so do the Chinese, Koreans, Japanese, Latinos, Africans, Arabs, etc." They all come from ethnic or regional groups, which produces hundreds of movies, plus TV and streaming shows. None of which are very 'diverse.' It all sounds pretty petty, especially when demanding to know why, a historical movie produced in Denmark, didn't have any diversity." It is only White countries which need diversity, that code word, by arrogant people, which their own apparatus, saying, "we need less White people." I can't stand these hubristic racists.

    I think the actors know this is the last gasp.
    Social media killed the idea of "star power" because they didn't realize that appearing with Johnny Carson once a year was a special event, but now they never go away.
    Subscription base streaming is killing the idea of popularity directly affecting revenue (box office, ratings based ad revenue, media sales, etc.), so they can't negotiate salaries based on how much money they generate. In fact, with subscriptions it's just an increase in expenses to keep shows going.
    There are too many independent forms of entertainment out there, now. In many cases, people are paying the people they want directly or through Patreon, Suscribstar, Kicstarter, Indegogo, etc.
    AI is coming whether they like it or not. CGI animators will probably crack the uncanny valley sooner rather than later.
    Edit: Additionally, international content is increasingly acceptable to American audiences. Anime has been growing for decades and Squid Games showed interesting foreign shows can be a huge hit.

      I agree. Theres a beautiful sweetspot in the late 90's that saw some fantastic films, Lost Highway, Buffalo66, Boogie Nights, Bullworth, Crash, Run Lola Run and a heap more.. We used to have a few beers, and a wee smokie and go see a film every Saturday. We saw so many films that (heres the rub) were so different from each other.
      Now it seems that every film is largely identical. Why see a film where you can see where the plot is headed from the getgo, the dialogue is just exposition, the special fx (fights, car chases etc) are overlong and rarely even advance the plot, and the audio levels go from so quiet it cant compete with my tinnitus to so loud it causes tinnitus with nothing in between?

I'm sure a lot of actors who, let be honest are very narcissistic by nature are dying inside through lack of attention, would have tried something like that (would have been fun to watch them try - another visual trainwreck).

On the flip side, I used to discount movies for very shallow reasons back when the bar was amazingly high. I have a lot more fun watching B movies of the 90s and 2000s than I have had watching anything new in about a decade. We used to only get great movies, and when it was anything less, it was considered a failure. Those failures are looking like art right about now.

    The fact that 60% of your viewers are subscribers is honestly commendable. The most I’ve seen elsewhere is between 20-30%. I’m not surprised, because it shows that once people see you, they’re pretty quickly hooked by what you bring to the table. Keep up the good work man.

Usually you don't click on those unless you want to watch this, and after you watch some of them you either subscribe (because you wanna see his new videos) or you never click on his videos again (because it's not your thing). That's my logic. I just don't get how can there be a middle ground for this channel - some people that keep coming back to his videos but don't wanna subscribe ?

    There is a century of old movies, shows, and other entertainment which outclasses everything being produced today. If I didn't have to work and could just sit on my ass all day watching TV, I'd still have a hard time watching it all. They could strike for a decade and I wouldn't even notice.

    Watching this video of a maniacally grinning Nanny, it is more clear than ever that actors are just liars. They are paid to say things, and this is not just in a role as another person on the TV or movie screen, but this is how they run their entire lives. When they give an interview, that is not a regular human talking about what it was like to act, that is an actor saying the words they know will help their career. When she said the words "federally regulated union" I almost flipped my table because the thought that these professional liars get any of our tax money is depressing as hell.

    When I was a kid we had these channels: 4, 5, 9, 14, 19, and then 62. We went outside to turn the antenna if things didn’t go well because we wanted to watch Cartoons on Saturday morning before spending the rest of the day outside doing real things… The highlight of the week was the occasional Sunday night movie or something cool from Disney as it was non-woke back then. We turned out just fine. I would go so far as to say that the 50+, pre-Internet generation, along with the seemingly few younger ones who see things for what they are, will be the ones to clean up these messes and solve these problems. If you’re much older you just don’t care, if you’re much younger, you’re probably too ignorant of History.

    Thanks for gathering all this info for us, Gary.

I truly hope the Spielbergs, Kubricks, and Lucases of the world are ready to stand up and bring back real entertainment.

    Remember, in the 90s, when there were suddenly 97 different TV networks out there? UPN, WB, Pax (who?) and others. There was the debut of a number of cable-only "networks", too -- FX, Trio (Who?), Style, and others. Then, by the mid-2000s, there was a sudden collapse, as UPN and WB merged, and others faded away...
    Just the same, a bunch of "streaming services" exploded some years ago.... and now they're doing the same merge-and-purge, as the "me-too" services become the "Who?" of the next generation.
