Why Did the Golden Age of Original Cinema End?

This really puts things into perspective, showing how good we had it and how much we've lost.

Without watching the video - a personal observation....

Seems Hollywood is running out of ideas. I suppose it's only natural. At some point you run out of interesting things to explore cinematically.

I'm a fan of the Equalizer series. 3 was enough. I found out yesterday 4 and 5 are on the way. I'm a fan of the movie "Orphan". Part 2 was stretching it a bit. FOund out a week or so ago, part 3 is on the way.

And the comic book business, OMG - talk about enough is enough. I find out in the upcoming SUperman reboot, a bunch of characters will be introduced. No doubt all having their own series of films, no doubt sequels will be included. Enough already.

A lack of original ideas seems to be the current Hollywood problem.

Great video, and I’d think most people would agree with most of the points made. Thanks for posting it.

Strong vid, the points it makes are correct… but it fails to mention Woke, which is the biggest factor explaining why Hollywood has stopped making the entire genre of comedy, and why almost everything that Hollywood puts out is dogshit, stuffed with racist identity politics and tedious Leftist political messaging.
