Is it possible to not enjoy several art forms / mediums as a whole? I've watched many movies and TV shows, and played many video games, but none of them have done anything for me since I was a child.
Is this common?
Common in depressed people.

Maybe you need something more intellectually stimulating as opposed to creative.
they're not supposed to do anything to you, its just entertainment

I've tried one arthouse film that /tv/ recommended, Last Year at Marienbad, but I got incredibly bored about halfway through and it was a pain to finish. I watched Synecdoche NY last night and felt the same thing, so I'm worried I might just be bored by it all.

Maybe, though the last time I really enjoyed either of those was when I was around 10 years old.

Why can't I be entertained by any of them then?

a lot of arthouse films require a lot of context to be enjoyed. last year at marienbad is not something you really enjoy, more like something unsettling you recognize. most people just don't have the right palate or like movies enough to get into things like marienbad.

so? there's a real chance you could have been depressed since you were ten.

Can you suggest something easier that I might enjoy (filmwise)?

Since most of them are crap, you are showing rare good taste. Keep looking around until you find an art form you do enjoy.
