To me, movies are the most uninteresting piece of entertainment there is. I can't bare the thought of sitting through a movie.
I mean, It's just so mediocre.
Every movie out there has a good ending.
Every movie has a romance plot thrown in there.
Every protagonist is a good looking man who has a talent no one else has but he doesn't care about it.

It's the same stuff over and over and over again, with CGI and half-assed fighting scenes.
I mean, to each their own. Whatever floats your boat. I'm just wondering how watching a movie is entertaining whatsoever these days?

I'm a pathetic no life fag who has spent an eternity on /tv/ and watched far more movies than most other humans.

Even I'm struggling to hit 5 because of this third point;

>Every protagonist is a good looking man who has a talent no one else has but he doesn't care about it

That's a specific character trope that obviously isn't going to be in every movie.

Let me rephrase my question then you one-sided freaks.
Name one movie out there you watch where you don't instantly know how the scene/movie is going to end/turn out?
Every single movie in existance, you know if the movie is going to have a happy ending within the first 10 minutes. The film industry uses the most cheezy, over-used plotlines there is, 90% of the time coated in a romance plot.
No other form of entertainment does this, and neither would they get away with it.

All of this makes for the lowest form of entertainment there is.
Period.

Bad endings are a defining part of the genre for film noir.

Why don't you actually watch good movies instead of shitting on an entire artform when all you've seen is modern Hollywood films?

>>80612965
Yeah, but a lot of people tend to be surprised at how quickly the peasants go from begging them to outright ignoring them once their services aren't needed, and the romance plot doesn't end in a typical Hollywood fashion either.

Music is the second lowest form of entertainment.

Not OP but, from intellectual appeal to emotional appeal:
Literature (includes philosophy etc.) > Film > Poetry = Visual arts > Music

All the films I listed are famous, critically successful, and most of them financially successful too. Almost every film on that list is considered to be one of the all time great movies.

I just dont understand how they can build a good storyline in 2 hours. Tv shows are much better for storytelling.

>>80613168
You can throw those meaningless words around all you want. Doesnt change the face that no one has ever heard of any of them and would rather watch the new avengers movie.
>>
>>80613185
Its called visuals and good writing. If you're a decent reader you can blaze through the average novella in about two hours. Hell, Heart Of Darkness took me less than an hour, and literature takes longer to convey a plot than film.
>>
>>80613185
They can't. Hence the cheezy and overused, uninteresting plotlines with romance and happy endings thrown in there.

Only if you watch at 2x speed, and the average brainlet struggles with 1.5x speed. At 1.0x speed literature has clear speed advantage.

I know this is bait, but odds are you've seen all of those films referenced dozens of times in pop culture but are too much of a pleb to even realize it.
>>80613248
I love epic poetry, but it essentially fits in the literature category of my scale, and the scale is not based on quality but Emotional/Visceral vs Intellectual appeal, consuming music is almost entirely an emotional activity, whilst composing it is a highly intellectual one, but I don't know how to make a scale that differentiates consumption from composition so you're on your own faggot.
