After reading your list of shows, I can assure you that we have very different taste.
I turned each of those shows off due to their modern troupes and characters.
The 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's were leaps and bounds better than those moder pieces of soap opera claprtap.
I didn't say there wasn't creativity then. I said that the Hayes code didn't help it.-
This is where we disagree. I say it did as it created better editing, use of suggestion, and subtext as it had to happen.
Modern TV is still just as crappy as it was then only we get more violence and nudity on screen. The storytelling is still similar. You just didn't pay attention to the old stuff because you probably thought it was all hokey sitcoms.
Actually, the TV of the 50's and 60's is pretty awesome. Most people who say it pales in comparison failed to even see it. Give it a watch.
I think rape, incest, and most violence is unnecessary in film.
Defectors are important as that's how the art survived. Don't disrespect those you support.
You don't like the Hayes code. Point taken. But to deny artistry during that time a d the creative ways they got the ideas across is just a sign of ignorance.
<blockquote>And you want to return to the days where "blasphemy" and interracial relationships were banned from being depicted on film and TV? </blockquote>
Never said that. Just showing a comparison.
You're looking for examples in the USSR. Look at defector's art and writing and you'll get my point.
The US crushed Soviet art... and much was created during the hayes code. It's hilarious because people assume censorship evil yadda yadda. In reality, its temporary and leads to innovation that takes it away. We're seeing that now with the modern DEI codes causing failure is film appreciation.
We are under censorship even though we say otherwise.
Nope. I'm defending creativity in the midst of censorship.
Actually, they did, but most was produced by those who escaped. Don't forget the protection of Icons fostered by the Communist attempt to eradicate religion.
BTW, after the hayes code we got all of that and it created some good movies and a lot of bad movies
Now, due to very few restrictions, most movies are pretty bad because the creators have nothing to really say.
I reccommed an art history class or two if you have ti.e. you'll be surprised how awesome art can be under restrictions. To just assume it's censorship and evil is to really miss out on human ingenuity.
Yes.
I know it's controversial to say among movie fans but artists need restrictions to overcome.
Unfettered artistry ends up like a lot of post modern art we see today with things being mistaken for trash or a banana being taped to a canvas.
Restrictions do create opportunities for purpose.
Plus, we had amazing movies released during the Hayes Code.
I never needed to. The houses I used to live in have been put on the market and the sales photos took care of the curiosity.
I fell asleep about an hour in. 5/10.
It looks great.
Alien romulus- (?). I fell asleep about an hour in. It looked nice.
Totally. At least let a few leaves turn color first.
My mom likes it. I'm just not a fan.
I'm right there with you. Russell Crow is a decent actor but I didn't care for Gladiator or Mystery Alaska.
You're not making this easy 😅.
Don't look him in the eye.

I've see a bit if his stuff. He's pretty good and he watches a lot of weird stuff.
