- Author David Mamet has declared that Hollywood is “dead”.
“Every time the technology changes, there’s a whole new paradigm,” he told Sky News Australia host Piers Morgan.
“So now the new paradigm is to go to downloading and streaming.
“The incredible bureaucracy - the pointless bureaucracy of the studio system which has been around for a hundred years is now dead.
“Nobody goes to the movies anymore.”
Star Wars: unwatchable. Marvel: unwatchable. James Bond: replaced by Lashana Lynch: unwatchable. Common factor: WOKE.
*Bad writing and agendas. Nobody can actually ID the word "woke" anymore. See Bethany Mendell as an example.
Sum up in one word
Don't forget "Indiana Jones and the Diarrhea of Destiny." Unwatchable.
They quit making movies we want to watch and are just making movies they want us to watch.
Well said! Bravo!
Exactly!!!! They are making Woke movies which nobody wants to watch!!!
Welcome to Marxism.
Get the message studios: we’re sick of ‘the message’. Didnt you learn anything from Budweiser?
Hollywood seems to think it's primary industry purpose is to preach and lecture with entertainment the vehicle. The public says you can't even get the entertainment part right anymore - the preaching and lecturing is better left with those you can take more seriously. An entertaining lecture is good for those who put the lecture first and the entertainment part second. Hollywood has been turning itself into an industry there's no demand for - like buying a vehicle that's programmed to give woke lectures every minute it's being driven.
Last movie I saw was Maverick. Great movie. Say what you want about Cruise but he delivers and creates great movies. Completely entertaining and no woke BS.
Cruise is the last of his kind.
Same😊
80's icons keep saving hollywood
He's right, no one goes to the cinema anymore. I used to go to the movies all the time with friends, we'd often go at least once every fortnight, sometimes weekly if there were some good films out. Well, as of December 20th, I haven't seen a movie at the cinemas all year. We don't go to the cinemas anymore, as they say, "go woke, go broke". When they put out a great movie, I might go and see it. Until then, we now meet at each others homes and do movie nights, with DVDs!! F U Hollywood!
We all lose from this, most films are crap nowadays but the death of cinema is nothing to celebrate
There are other countries that make good films. Remember, Lord of the Rings was not made in the USA.
Lord of the Rings was made 20 years ago. It would be (intentionally) unrecognisable today. Bilbo and friends would probably be trans, and not leave the shire for fear of being mis-gendered. Modern movies = moronic identity-politics propaganda. No surprise they don't find much of an audience@@spacecadet35
The most cheerful episode of Piers Morgan in a very long time.
Very uplifting.
Hollyweird is over.
Bollywood is doing great.
That's right even Bollywood was on the same path promoting woke content and insulting its audience but I salute people of my country they taught them lessons boycotted their movies, their endorsed product and also trolled them for their hypocrisy soon they realised they will not survive hence they changed their content. At present, they are scared of the ai too.
There should be a theatre that plays nothing but classic films. They'd do terrific business, I think.
One of the positives living in Paris, we have about 15 cinemas that does only that
Astor in Melbourne does that. Hell, they even have voice clips from the actors welcoming the audience to the screening. and briefly talking about the shooting process.
We have a theater 5 miles away built in 1922 that has been completely restored. We love it. They show movies like ELF, Christmas Vacation, etc.
@@nickhanlon9331l love the Astor theatre - especially when they run the Marx brothers.
Look what Disney and Hollywood did to the three new Star Wars movies , complete woke madness !
Only movie worth a damn this year was 'sound of freedom'. A movie hollyweird shunned for obvious reasons. Disney woke crap bombed. So did woke women power 'marvels'.
Sound of freedom was an awfull movie.
@@dickmullen3750 I am happy you hated it. And it's 'awful'.
Mud Brown and the Seven Average Height Persons.
GO WOKE GO BROKE. Hollywood is doomed.
I wouldn't miss watching the Oscars during the Golden Years but they became so cringeworthy with Actors turning the night into a political platform to air there views. Now we see the demise of the movie Industry.😢
Finally! Thank you Piers for bringing up the subject. Hollywood & politicians in America have gone too far! Impeach Joe Biden to save America🎄🇺🇸
actors / celebrities used to be larger than life, now they are just normal humans without a proper job, GRIFTERS
I love Mamet. Brilliant playwright. I loved how he refused to take the “woke” bait from Piers. Mamet is right. The way we receive entertainment is correct. I am a huge DC and Marvel fan. Now, I just wait 30-60 days later to stream instead of going to the movies. Saves a lot of money.
Another reason I won't go to the cinema any more, is that you can no longer go in to a cinema on a whim and just buy a simple ticket. It's all got to be booked, and even the tickets can just be bought over the counter. I'm through with them.
I stopped watching Net flicks because of this. Forced to watch the mandatory gay scenes that were squashed into the movie. Over it.
It was killed by Woke, not the silly strike.
Going to the movies used to be like going on a first date with a cute young girl with a lilting who smiles a lot and really enjoys your company. Modern movies are like being dragged to mandatory anger counseling with an old shrew of an ex-wife who wants nothing more than to tell in her grating 'period' voice about how wrong you men are about everything.
The problem is that the great directors and great actors are dead.
David Lynch is still alive
Agreed, everyone knows hollywood is done ,hollywood just doesn't know it yet.
👍👍
Cinema was facing a lot of alternatives like games, online streaming, and it was a that point Hollywood thought making movies crap and woke would be a good idea.
The movies are trash these days. I don't pay to watch trash.
Deathly tiring and soul destructive to watch the violence, blasphemy, immorality, swearing, death, murder, killing, disrespect, unhappiness, discontent, embarrasing scenes, cringing utterings, the filth one's spirit is bombarded with, the things our children see that strips moral values and turn them into rebels against parents and God. Just cannot do it anymore. Beautiful live theatre which bonds people together, creates an environment and atmosphere of enjoyment, fun, appreciation - time to remove the brittle bricks and build firm, untainted foundations again.
true , give me a b/w movie anyday.
Hollywood may very well be 'dead' but I think cinema still has a place. I've watched Godzilla Minus One, Sisu, Godland, and the Sound of Freedom in the theatre this year, and very much would have regretted it if I had of missed out on that experience and just watched them at home on TV instead
I saw SISU this past summer! The best film I've seen since "Everything Everywhere All At Once" . . . might have the name wrong. Both those films blew my mind.
Read the book 1984 if you haven’t already.
Is that your bible?
there's barely any movies coming out that anyone wants to see.. but they wil still have awards shows and give trophies to ppl "from marginalised groups" ... its a participation medal event at the oscars.. so long as you are not straight white male.
Hollywood should of concentrated on entertainment. They have forever tainted themselves.
People watch movies for entertainment, not to be lectured on others political beliefs!
Of course Hollywood is dead. We all know where to go and get 😂a sermon. Frankly, hearing a lecture about my sinfulness that includes options for repentance, reconciliation, and forgiveness is a million times better than being told I am bad because I can't keep up with gender fluidity, pronoun roulette, or the Victim of the Day.
Absolutely!!
I'm curious what films come to mind that you're talking about ("gender fluidity, pronoun roulette, or the Victim of the Day.")
@@Phil_Langone_FilmArt I mentioned lectures, as in interviews, pontificating at awards, and random news.
@@draighodge6039 ah okay. It wasn't clear to me. If a film is lecturing or pontificating it's probably not well written or made. Most films have opinions going back to the early days of filmmaking. So it's really the amplification of a few stars and their opinions that bother you. I get that. For me it doesn't affect if I'll watch a movie or not, but I get it for others. I feel like there's more of a complaint about this with movies and shows as opposed to sports (who also can have loud opinions) and rich people, who's opinions are legion with their ability to wage a very loud, outsized megaphone. And rich politicians. I mean really, a Hollywood star can't send us to war or invade anyone's country. Anyway, thanks for answering. I was just curious.
@Phil_Langone_FilmArt You are welcome. To your point about poorly written scripts, I can see that. Star Wars was about a cosmic struggle, now, it is preoccupied with convincing us that any woman can be a good man. Star Trek's more recent spinoffs have similar problems. I wish we could go back to humorous interactions with aliens such as that time Captain Janeway put her hands on her hips and caused a diplomatic incident or when Captain Archer's beagle did the same thing. That was funny and also a bit of a thought experiment.
Watching extended sex scenes is off-putting. Porn is on demand for the viewer who wants it. I suspect most viewers are okay without knowing the ins and outs of various sexual practices, whether performed by an Ever Strait, someone LG or B, or the rest of the alphabet. The last time sex moved a serious movie along it was, "Pretty Woman", a rags-to-riches movie about a prostitute so it made sense. I wish for better writers. Does being in a Union dumb them down or restrict their idea options?
The reason we don't go to the movies anymore is woke BvllShite.
What do you mean by woke?
@@golfmike13 he means 🤮
Now run along and get ya boosters!
They’re good for you!
💉🤪👍
👍👍
Lol no. Hollywood has been stale since their peak in lates 90s and early 20s. You just hate non white plp on screen.
I’ll buy his book and put it on my reading list for 2024 looks like a good read
Movies are dead for many reasons. Woke politics is one of them. Increasing ticket prices is another. They have also lost their competitiveness because TV uses the same tech, so the gap isn't what it used to be.
The movie theaters priced themselves out of the market.
If movie tickets were $5, I'd go every week. But because they are $15-20, I go once a year, or not at all.
1 ticket = $15-20
1 bucket of popcorn =$1300
someone i know went recently - him, wife and 2 kids. it was about 80 quid time he had paid parking, tickets and some snacks for kids. thats a ridiculous amount for working class ppl
You can't blame the movie theatres, they have raised their prices because not enough people are going anymore.
The reason? The films are unwatchable.
Hollywood - a place where a 110 pound woman can beat up 6 200 pound men. I gave up a long time ago. Ticket prices over £10. Food prices out of this world expensive and don't forget the parking. If there is something I want to watch I'll pick it up on DVD in a couple of years at a charity shop for £1.
Same here in Australia. The last time I went to the cinema it cost me about 20 or more dollars, yet I can buy a second hand DVD in a charity shop for 2 to 3 dollars.
So what.
The Lizards can retire 😂
I won't waste my time nor my money going to the movies anymore. I haven't been to the movies for over 20 years and that was the $1.00 movie. Pure garbage is being pumped out, same goes for TV. I don't even have cable, just plain tv with rerun shows. I read good books now instead.
Sound of freedom = exposure of people trafficking. Tim Ballard was the hero. 🙏💗
Facts - I won’t support Hollywood rot
The Game Award’s Is More Popular Than The Oscar’s
Crazy but true
One is about rich people smelling each other's farts, the other is actually entertaining

When the Epstien flight log lists movie is made, who will play the actors of the actors that are from the story.
How high are you?
They wouldn't let it get made, they won't tell on themselves.
People don't go to the movies anymore??? .... Piers, you amaze me. You figured this all out by yourself 😂
Spot on. A lot to unpack here. Any industry that can cut the balls off of Indiana Jones has a serious problem.
I LOVE going to movie theaters. I would go all the time if there was anything worth watching. These days it's all dark, dreary, uninspired apocalyptic crap. Ever heard of lighting? Ever heard of actual relatable humor as opposed to the insufferable, oppressive, snarky woke sniping that has taken over?
There is ZERO creativity in evidence. Everything is a remake or a sequel. Superhero schmooperhero.
I don't go to movies to be preached to or endure pandering to some small demographic.
AI is an eternal bore, as is anything that is overproduced. The music industry is bereft of quality for the same reason. My favorite band is any garage band churning out some gritty take that sounds like humans made it.
The movie executives got together to design a horse and what we got was a camel. Until they they realize that they themselves are CLUELESS, and do the only thing they're good for - shelling out money and start employing people on the basis of merit and not their demographic identity, and turn over the creative process to people with a scintilla of imagination and talent, the industry will stay in the grave and I'll be staying home watching Lucy reruns.
I couldn't care less. The movies they produce are simply said braindead and this bunch of actors who live way beyond their mental
capacity are so exhausting. This endless glorification of violence is hopefully coming to an end finally. Eveybody who was exposed
to real violence in reality knows how profoundly disturbing and traumatizing such an expirience can be.
last time I went to the cinema was to watch Gone in 60 seconds. The movie was ok until they jumped Eleanor over a bridge and ruined the movie! That was when I said fuck you to Hollywood.
easy fix
turn off the idiot box and walk out the door
Its not just that. As a Hollywood film maker, you are competing with your neighbors 16 year old kid, who has access to the same editing and effects technology that you do. The barriers to entry are falling. The aura of celebrities has gone, because social media has shown people that they are, in fact, not very talented and for the most part dumb (and annoying), and movies no longer have the appeal that they used to in an age of VR, games and social media. (And lets not bring A.I. into it). The Buggles should re-do their famous song, but this time the lyrics should be: ''Internet killed the Hollywood star''.
Show me a 16 yeras old kid who is able to make a full-lenght blockbuster with professional level of VFX. :D Nobody like that exists. Whole teams of overworked VFX artists work on one M-s*it-U movie, and don´t get me started on the cameramen, stuntmen, sound tech people...
It can change in th future with advanced AI generators which will most likely be able to generate a full movie based on a text fed to them one day, but the technology is not even close to that yet.
It´s impossible to singlehandedly make 300 mil. budget movie. Even if the neccessary budget is like 100 mil.
Henry Cavil is a super-rich star and not even he can just buy the rights to The Witcher and create the show on his own.
Yeah, i meant that more in the sense of competition for eye-balls, for your time. A lot of people prefer to allocate their free time nowadays to watching TH-cam videos instead of a movie. On the other hand.....i do think that it is possible for a kid to create a super low budget flick or even an indie with good production values/quality, with the current available technology, even more so than when Sam Raimi made Evil Dead with largely improvised equipement back in 1981. @@Mouse_Metal
Not just the wokeness etc etc... but damn......it costs a bl00dy fortune to take the kids to the pics now
They should make something else except super heroes.
You're so right westerns were really big but they were stories like McClintock with John Wayne it's a classic. I miss the days when movies had a story to them and it wasn't everybody had to die.
@@cwhyharris7473 people are so tired of seeing these super heroes years after years. Its not diversity problem because many other media which are not include white people but people are watching now like Chinese, Indian and Turkiye. Every one choose their own alternative option.
Superheroes are fine, if the viewer is under 10 years-old.
willy wonka vol.8
Spot on
I haven't watched a movie in a theatre in years because the people who attend them nowadays are noisy, addicted to their phones and stupid. They trash the floors, talk incessantly and have no idea how rude they are. Why would anyone subject themselves to this sort of behaviour? Add to that that most of the movies being produced of late are crap stories full of just the 'right' mix of minorities regardless of whether it works for the story. Just make good movies and the audience will come. Try to socially engineer a movie and the audience will disappear like smoke through a keyhole. This is why Hollywood is dead. Long may it stay that way.
The Oscars and the Global Globes are more akin to Maoist struggle sessions than the celebration of American film.
For years now, if I sniff the tiniest bit of woke in a movie or TV show, I won't watch it.
For me at least, no point in going to the theaters any more.
They are no longer the rare spectacle they once were.
Too expensive.
Got other things to do that are more fun and engaging than sitting in front of a screen in a room with a bunch of strangers.
Plus, I can just watch it from home in a month or two if I actually want to see the movie.
I refuse to go and pay for woke trash.
Go Woke go Broke
I'd rather watch Casablanca for the sixtieth time than anything Hollywood puts out today.
I went to a theater 2 years ago in a mall to see Dune, but don't go to movie, bars, and events anymore. I can't afford them nor interested in the movies, events, bars, etc. of the 2020's. There were free tickets to The Sound of Freedom back in August, but I felt a risk of going. Many who did take up the offer going to see it, report there was no air conditioning nor customer service. Theaters are dead for our 4k screens are better than a projected movie. Dune wasn't very good, but theaters were a convenient break from homelessness for a few hours.
Sound of Freedom was a major success, what happened was that when it was
becoming popular the powers that be saw uncomfortable truths, and leaned on the
cinemas, hence the aircon problems. Despite that it cost buttons to make and
made around $250 million.

It’s not just technology at play here. What programs on network TV are worth watching anymore? Most of it is horrible. Even the titles they use for programs are all so general & mundane. Nothing exciting to watch here. Then, they must give out Hollywood stars of fame & awards, so they give them out to no talent actors.
I can stay at home and watch the movie in private on a better screen and i get to filter out all the woke BS.
Derangement syndrome alert ⚠️
Yes, it's much better watching movies at home without being surrounded by inconsiderate noisy people. It's cheaper and I can pause the movie if I need to go to the loo!!
Since covid we almost never go to the movies and lets be honest they are all crap. Marvel, starwars have destroyed themselves.
There are a few movies that are better on the big screen. David Leans movies ie: Lawrence of Arabia, Dr. Zhivago, Ryan’s Daughter etc. His movies have big panoramic scenes that lose their grandeur on a DVD screen. Also, Spartacus and Ben Hur. If Hollywood made more movies like those it would revive their industry. You’re right about the general public rejecting woke crap being shoved down their throats. It’s really crazy that they keep trying to foist that philosophy on us to their detriment.
Living without TV for 18 years, I'd love to go to movies again.
It can be accomplished in 2 simple steps:
1) Make something I'd actually like to see.
2) Stop lying to my friends and family, making them afraid to be around me.
Problem solved. 😏
Amen. I’m from North Carolina in US. Used to love, love movies. It was my favorite pastime. Now I can’t stand them. All the woke garbage has ruined the industry. Now we buy old movies on DVD for entertainment .
Boycotting woke studios and alt left winger actors/actresses. So I’ve saved thousands of dollars over past 15 years.
Go woke -go broke.
Please bring back the Judeo christinity morals back the the movies !
People like watching movies in the comfort of their home. Large screen tv's and a two story screen just doesn't do it anymore. Theatre experience is way too expensive for families. Not to mention, Hollywood only thinks tent pole films like Marvel, Disney etc..are what we want. Well, not all of us have kids, families etc.. Technology is good enough to watch the real great films rather than substandard AI'd crap.
My last visit was to watch Ridley Scott's 'Napoleon,' two weeks ago. It was, from start to finish, irredeemably awful.
Best described as 'Carry On Boney,' although it would have benefitted from Sid James, and Kenneth Williams, with Barbara Windsor as Josephine. Still, at least Lenny Henry wasn't chosen to play Wellington.
Yeah disappointing. Nice cinematography for a few scenes but washed up Brit tabloid script based on political cartoons.
Agreed I left the movie feeling like I couldn’t wait to get out of there.
a wasted opportunity.. instead of a story about Napoleon the tyrant and military genius, it was about a simp for his first wife!
I was so looking forward to watching an epic movie about Napoleon, probably the greatest self made man ever. His energy, drive and conviction were unmatched. He changed the landscape of Europe for the better.
After hearing it made Josphine the star, I couldn't bring myself to go watch it.
Hopefully, someday, someone will have the balls to make a tv drama series documenting his life and all his battles. The potential for an epic drama would be limitless. There are so many characters to pull from, his Marshals, generals political figures of the day it could bring in the revolution. But no doubt it to woukd be destroyed by box ticking wokesters
If you want to watch some of the best Hollywood films watch the ones which were created in the 80s, 90s, and the early 2000s. Horror and Sci-Fi used to be Entertaining. Now both turned Woke. Even Comedy went down the drain. The first Part of the film The Nun didn’t look Woke. The Second Part turned Woke. Walt Disney turned into Woke Disney.
Making the worst movies, staring the worst role models and charging a fortune for people to see it 😬
All at a time where the home viewing experience is better than ever, piracy is easier than ever and people are more reluctant to risk getting covid by cramming into a theatre next to strangers
🤷 the perfect storm. RIP bozo's
Johny depp $300 million pay to star in pirates of the Caribbean 6 (a franchise that exhausted it's magic long ago) 💀 you guys will be paying like $10 out of your ticket price just so he can earn that.
Movies,music,gaming.
All mainstream arts are dead.
The internet did total damage to global culture.
Now everyone can make entertainment
Cheap entertainment,but entertainment none the less
And yet here you are watching things on the internet
When you are offered a choice between nothing and garbage,everyone will choose garbage.@@Didyourmomtwice
@@lazarusblackwell6988 Read a book you 🙈 brained 🤡
hollywood is absolutely dead and it’s honestly so sad, and the music industry is following the same path too. Ever since the introduction of the iphone, the entertainment industry has unfortunately met its match. It always leads back to the iphone.
If the recent movies are all DEI and Woke infected, traditional customers have a right to save their money.
Who Care's.
Pedos
Streaming isn't doing well. Movies are not supported because the industry is trying to push a narrative down our throats. Then the arrogant celebrity who shoves their political and cultural views on the public has turned the people away. They should stick to their day job.
Go woke Go Broke.
With online streaming killing it, the last thing Hollywood needs to do is make movies trying to prove a narrative. How about make a good movie. I guarantee people will watch it it's a good movie.
The actors have forgotten they are actors and believe they they are here to tell us who to vote for, what to buy, who we should like etc they need to realise they are not demigods and if they cant or won't do the job they are paid for then they should quit!
The movies today are crap. I would rather watch an old film from years ago with great actors than watch the morons on screen today. I went to the movies and concerts for entertainment, not to be lectured. The plus side-I have saved a fortune by not supporting hollyweird and the rest! 😂
No decent movies. Too much woke in new shows. All they do is reboot old shows. No new ideas. Hollywood is dead that’s ok by me
Only because everything that they dish up is garbage.
Absolutely, no desire to watch any. The dark force behind the screen is unbearable.
Hollywood has had its day. Like Victorian attitudes & dress the world has moved on. Even more so now that is has turned to wokeism. We will read about you in history. Goodbye.
"Woke killed the Hollywood star" need a remake of that
I recently watched "The Shift" at a theater. Entertaining movie and I missed the theater experience.
Streaming is limiting new theatrical releases and I hate it.
Why spend money to watch a movie that has been made by a computer programmer with a few actors superimposed over the top?
We all realized we didnt really need movies afterall. It was something we did for fun, not something we would just continue to mindlessy do. Especially when they are just remakes and crap.
The whole point of being creative is to use your imagination which can be limitless. Forcing diversity and technology to be used creates limits. Not all stories need technology and not all stories need diversity. Flexibility is key!
Yeah
You Australian?
As somebody who browses the web literally 24/7, there is PLENTY of talent to keep Hollywood alive. So many damn good writers, both male and female, visionaries and directors in the making that are brilliant, and just waiting twiddling their thumbs for Hollywood to use their ideas. I've got their signed novels in my room as we speak. Even artists; plenty of brilliant artists that paint cubism, surrealism, expressionism, visionaries that can keep the ball rolling just out there waiting to be given the chance. But they don't. Hollywood doesn't care about them. Instead they hire terrible writers that live in their own delusional bubble. It's like trying to operate a body with no blood in it. Writers make up the blood of all of Hollywood, and young up and comers make up the one's who keep it thriving. Without them, it's truly a matter of time before it completely dies, and there's nothing left anymore.
Hollywood supports every kind of diversity known to humankind EXCEPT for DIVERSITY of THOUGHT!
Why should I go to the movies? Cate Blanchett is now ponsing around like some political know all and is a joke. I'm sick of these actors that can't put two words together unless a writer does it for them telling us what to do. Their arrogance has no bounds, so why do I need to pay their wages through their franchising bullshit movies? to all actors who want to go down the political look at me road, GET STUFFED
I have seen reviews of a few movies I might quite like to see, when they reach streaming services, but haven’t actually been to a cinema for probably 15 years.
Have not watched a movie in 3 years, woke crap
If I'm watching anything and think I'm being lectured to or see any woke nonsense I turn it off. There is also actors that I refuse to watch no matter how good the movie
Hollywood and actors have just become boring. Nothing new that isn’t a statement , pushing homosexuality, victimhood, or endless repeated of “new” old movies. Give me Eastwood.
The movies I would watch in the cinema usually aren´t released for the cinemas in my country.
It´s just endless line of w0ke remakes, sequels and prequels. It´s unwatchable, deliberately vandalized garbage.
Haven’t been in decades. I can wait for it to be on tv. Not paying $20 plus food for any movie. Plus, it’s all sequel, prequel and remake. Nothing original or new. Or it’s all woke. Not wasting my time or money
when actors try to dictate the medical care and that doctors should get paid "government" low salaries, then hollywood/actors/directors/writers/producers etc should also get paid low government wages. Why should hollywood get high paying salaries? there should be government vouchers for free movies, right?
Yeah
You American?
What killed movies in the 2 countries that had them, was getting rid of Drive Ins. The Great Awakening of youth, was going to the drive in with your squeeze, and learning about things....oh, and maybe watch a movie or 2 in the old days. Young people gained independence, by going to the movies when they could drive. It was a social event. A very sad loss to the current youth of both the USA and Australia.
I completely agree, I sit through new releases for 23/24 and there is just nothingvIvwant to see. They are just CHI there are no good movies and good acting. The only actors shoved in our face are the favourites like Mark Ruffalo who is just awful but because he is super woke, this is what we get.
The technology changed to streaming and youtube, cinema is obsolete.
People are sick of CGI filled crap and actors expressing political views pushing woke narratives😄
Because all of those writers were suffering from woke mind virus and Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Gosh...I wonder what happened... ...says NO one...
Rubbish. Only this year I went to see GODZILLA MINUS ONE.
WE stopped going to movies about 11 years ago...they just suck.
