Why don't millennials watch TV or support the film indu

I'm gen x and I got screwed over by the conversion from vhs to dvd. Suddenly my movie collection, player, and amp were outdated. Now I just pirate all my movies. Fuck disks and players and drm.
I also used to be able to watch movies in quiet little theaters. Now I have to go to megaplexes full of kids and ethnics and shitty movies.
It's far cheaper to put together a home cinema and steal movies, so that's what I do.

bad entertainment and better elsewhere

>>85703319
Pirating is not stealing.

I just watch old Hollywood movies online and if I like them a lot buy them on blu ray.

New Hollywood propaganda sucks. Last film I really liked was The Revenant.

At the end of the article the writer admits it's just clickbait and that Hollywood sells more tickets in America/Canada alone than all the big 4 sports leagues.

didn't even open that shit. "10(5) reasons why...", "this is why....", " ......has a [...] problem" are all clickbait titles. I sometimes wonder if there's some shitty AI that dishes out those articles but I doubt a machine could produce something so disgusting.

>>85703010
Millenials have Shitflix and piratebay, if they're desperate for mediocre shit for now.Unless you're some backwater hick in China, you demand more than capeshit or reboots of old hack shit to be entertained.

Hollywood is actually making a shitload of money by producing pure concentrated garbage with not a single original idea. But just like Jerry Seinfeld pointed out in his joke, the jews that run Hollywood won't tell you that business is doing extremely good, they tell you it's doing bad so they can cry about having to pay too much taxes and justifying closing torrent sites to make a few more bucks on top of a mountain of billions.

Reminder that if you don't remember 9/11, you're not a millennial

To 18-20 year olds who call yourself Millennials, die.

>>85706451
Where did Seinfeld say, or imply that? I would really like to hear that.

In my country movie theaters are practically a monopoly and ticket prices have doubled in the past ten years while purchasing power certainly hasn't.

Did you ever stop and think, that maybe spending hundreds/thousands on a movie collection like ((they)) want you to, maybe wasn't such a good idea after all? I never understood families of the neighbor's kids, whose houses I walked into, and see hundreds of VHS tapes etc. You do realize that you're only supposed to buy movies that you really like, and plan on re-watching? You weren't supposed to build your own Blockbuster at home.

Modern capitalism in a nutshell.

>>85712693

This. the film industry is a luxury and because capitalism is running out of steam, less peasants have a budget for luxuries.

media is changing too as more and more are sick of advertisements and propaganda like marxist feminism from jewish media like reuters and hollwood and instead prefer to produce and consume their own, which is why we are on 4chan.

>>85703010
The TV industry has no one to blame but themselves as they've splintered into at least a dozen paid streaming services and no one is going to pay for all that shit just to watch the shows they like when they can pirate them for free. The movie industry, likewise, is also to blame because no one wants to go to an overpriced theatre full of people that should be gassed to watch some braindead remake of a movie that used to be good 20 years ago when they can just stay at home and watch whatever the hell they want for free.

recording films that were shown on TV to VHS was a big thing in the '80s and '90s, and people rewatched movies a hell of a lot more back then given that they couldn't just go and download a new one in half an hour.

Where the hell do you think it comes from ? DVD sales ?

>>85703010
I would really like it it if hollywood made made more movies and spent less money on them. Obviously they don't know what anyone likes but they still insist on sinking loads of money into these big hitters. Since this big hitters need to make big profit they have to play it safe to grab as many people as possible.

It would be nice if a movie wasn't such a big deal. If it was something that could play around and take risks. Whether it succeeded or flopped there would always be a bunch more.

I don't think people realise it but they can live with less then a thousand digital effects and three big stars a pop. They can would be happy with one big star and two sense with any kind of cool effect.
And if they don't think they can the previews can always lie to them.

But cheap movie once a week for a cheap ticket sounds great. If going to a movie can be something like going out to eat with a few friends millennials would be all over that. It needs to be accessible.

>>85703010
The films are bad and the tickets are too expensive.

You are not stealing anything when you are watching pirated content, nothing is removed from someones possession.

And of course the average person would not be able to afford buying everything they can and do make copies of for free. Of course it's not as if the money people don't spend on things they can copy just disappear, instead they use it for physical goods and services they can't copy, which in turn are likely to stimulate the job economy ten times more than putting it in the pockets of greedy jews who charge you crazy prices for the priviledge of streaming 1 1/2 hour of video.

Piracy is the perfect equalizer against the media cartels, give me decent pricing and great convenience and I will pay, closest thing today is Netflix.

Why? Because they know it's all shit. Because they have better things to do than go see some bad film for money that could be spent on a cup of Ben & Jerry's; probably better things than most people on this board. Because on some subliminal level, they know it's objectively more worthwhile to pirate everything instead of wait for a specific date or subscribe to a network that might not have anything they want more. And because >>85708511 has been true for decades now, when literal children have been having the Batman vs Superman debates before this board came to be.

Congratulations, /tv/! Despite what you like to think, deep down everyone really is as jaded and cynical about the media as you!

why would i spend money to watch capeshit #1415253, bastardized remake#4325241, propaganda movie #3124311 or some garbage original movie that's not worth the storage that's wasted on it?
i only go to the cinema once or maybe twice a year, sometimes not even that

>>85717441
The problem, as I see it, is that every producer and executive wants that get-rich-quick formula that can guarantee a box office smash for minimal creativity.

Remember when a whole bunch of capeshit after The Dark Knight were dark and brooding? Remember how nowadays, everyone's trying to make a cinematic universe with varying amounts of quips in it? Also consider the Ghostbusters reboot was lambasted by normies, whereas Hollywood's little echo chamber of a bubble keeps making out the whole SJW thing to be more of a big deal than it actually is. Ironically they're just like us: A bunch of bitter, histrionic whiners with very specific opinions, the only difference being they're better at pretending theirs matter to the rest of the world.

>>85717579 is right. The problem isn't millennials, Hollywood is just reaping what it sows.

I hate dealing with loud obnoxious people in theaters. The only time I ever go to the movies is Saturday matinee since there's hardly anyone.

Netflix and streaming has changed my outlook. Why the fuck should I pay 12-15 bucks to be crammed in a room full of other people when I can easily DL the movie for my projector at home? I'd rather watch in the comfort of my apartment or one of my friend's places.

I don't have cable TV, but I still have an antenna so I can still pick up the major channels like NBC, ABC, and CBS when I want to watch something on them. It's still free, and people seem to forget this.

The only way to peacefully fix it would be to end all the entitlement programs like social security, medicare, etc. Entitlements like these make up >2/3rds of the government's spending. The problem is this will NEVER HAPPEN because the people who benefit from these entitlements make up far too much of the population, and they'll never vote to give it up. It's complete and utter suicide for any politician to even THINK about taking away these entitlements, because they'd get voted out immediately and other politicians would immediately vote to reinstate them.

I'm mad about it, but on an individual level I don't blame the boomers. They've been told their whole lives that they're "paying into" this system, and that they deserve the benefits in return. I get that. But at some point, the buck has to stop.

What can you do? Well, you could get into the whole Prepper thing. Or you could just make sure to have at least some money out of fiat and into cryptos or precious metals or land instead.

I honestly see ourselves in a similar predicament to Weimar Germany, in the lead-up to the Third Reich. Everyone was poor as shit, widespread degeneracy, economy collapsing, etc. We're not quite at that point (well, we are when it comes to the social stuff. Seriously, look up the fucked up stuff that was happening in Weimar) but we're heading in that direction.

The coup de grace will be when all the Tech Industry faggots like Zuckerberg get their way with automation and pretty much everyone is put out of a job. When that happens, we'll be living in a neo-feudal society where we're all just serfs working for mega-corps. Hell, google is even heading in this direction with what it's doing with employee housing in san fran right now.

I want to see the world the boomers created collapsed and burning. Fuck them.

>>85729363
The sad part is that it won't collapse until they're all mostly dead and/or senile, and so they won't care about the consequences.

>>85729852
None of us ever decided to self-identify as millennials. Instead, what happened was "the powers that be" started pushing this "millennials are responsible for XYZ" bullshit because we're not being good little goyim who have tons of excess cash to spend on frivolous bullshit.

We've been totally fucked over during our prime years, and then they fucking wonder out loud why we don't pay for cable or go to the movie theaters as much or don't have good jobs or can't buy a house.

The problem is that anyone under the age of 27 is a fucking retard that can't stop looking at their phone for more than 3 fucking seconds.

I know people who DON'T go to the movies because they can't check their phones in the theater. And when they're watching movies or tv shows on Netflix, they check their phones constantly and miss most of what's on the screen.

>>85730489
Which confuses me. They said they got paid like 20 cents an hour back in the day. How the fuck did they go from that to a new job with 10 times the pay in a snap? Is it because background checks did not exist?

Trying to scrounge up enough money to pay ridiculous rent prices plus food plus tuition plus expenses doesn't leave a whole lot of money for an $18 movie ticket.

They also are creating 10 times the amount of content, art, etc that past generations and are entrepreneurs who are getting rich very young with innovative ideas.

The phone argument is so silly, like you could be literally talking to an Australian friend or something, it's fucking miraculous and it's ok that the first kids that get it are using it all the time.

This is why I stopped being able to watch movies with friends starting in college circa 2009. Everyone's heads were buried in their smartphones,and then they'd ask questions and say how confused they are about what's happening. We couldn't watch anything besides mouthbreathing Judd Apatow "comedy" movies because of this.

I'm not against smartphones, but it's fucking pathetic how millenials are glued to their screens 24/7. I know a girl who LOVES Pretty Little Liars, she talks about it all the time. Then I was at her place and saw how she "watched" the episodes: she was on her phone for 90% of the show.

>>85731018
My grandma uses her smartphone when she has nothing to do. But every night she watches movies and tv shows on Netflix without her phone. That's the difference.

I still have no idea what a millenial is, but whoever uses it always sounds like an old right wing dumbass so I don't really care.

>>85731215
It's boomer speak for the generation they fucked over

here, lemme spell it out for you

>pay $150 per month to watch 2 channels amid 200 channels I don't care about, and be forced to sit through commercials and shitty connection

or (b)
>pay a third party to bully the shit out of Hollywood into offering us the ability to watch thousands of movies and TV shows, commercial free, on our own schedules

Better job market back then, you also didn't have automation murdering tens of thousands of jobs a month.

Also their life costs we much lower. My grandfather went to the local university here in my city in Canada (London, British settlers made a knockoff) and paid his entire tuition by working a part time job during the summer months between school semesters.

That same tuition now at that same university would cost me around $45,000. Let me know where I can work 20 hours a week for 2 months a year and pay for that.

>>85703496
This is wrong. You can't get income if they go around your distribution method. The act of paying for it gives income.

If you can't protect the distribution of your material by yourself there is no reason on earth that everyone should be taxed to make up for your failure.

The Justice system should not prosecute for the entertainment unless it done in civil court with the industry putting up all the money.

Millennials are jerks.

>I 100% don't believe you. If you know any 20 somethings invite them over to watch a movie and watch how frequently their faces are glued to their phones while the movie is on.

Going to have to agree with this in my own experience. I stopped watching movies with friends and family because it felt like I was the only one watching the movie.

They'd miss constant plot shit then afterwards say the movie sucked because it made no sense.

You're anecdotal shit is in the extreme minority. Most old people barely know how to use their smartphone (if they have one), and rarely are they using them to watch their "nightly stories" (a ritual they've been doing for like 50 years).

Holy shit you're serious. I had to check because I didn't think the article would have the audacity to close like that.

>Americans and Canadians buy 1.3 billion tickets to the movies each year. That is ten times more than the number of tickets purchased to attend sports games to all four of the major sports—MLB (74 million), NBA (22 million), NHL, (22 million), and NFL (17 million)—combined. And that’s the stagnant domestic market.

You're hanging out with your 70+ year old managers and bosses watching movies at night? Da fuq? The only group of people that I've seen that spend more time on their phones than watching what's on the screen are under 30's.

>>85732449
You can quit insulting and projecting and be open-minded about this. Some people can live without phones. Others can't. 4chan is a great example of addiction with anonymity and shitposting.

>>85732286
>Admit it, phones are addictive no matter what age you are. It's a drug.

You'd think more people would know it's common courtesy not to use them when hanging out with other people. It's basically saying the phone is more interesting than they are, which is true more often than not but rude to point out.

>>85719719

If you truly want to transcend both normies and neckbeards, get some active hobbies and force yourself to do them. The key is getting enough sleep at night, which is accomplished by avoiding piece of electronic equipment with a screen after 9pm.

Here's the thing though, I never felt like blue ray ever really caught on like it was "supposed to." Most places that sell blue rays still have as many dvd's available, maybe more. There's just too many people out there who are satisfied enough with dvd's as a product that they aren't going to switch to another medium unless they become completely unavailable. Besides, most of these people would probably switch to streaming instead of going over to blue ray.

>>85736770

They're losing money because you're downloading instead of buying.

>>85736815
You say "losing" as though every time I download, I am siphoning dosh from their coffers. Money is not "lost" because I have hacked into their bank accounts and funneled it to myself every time I download a movie without paying for it. Regardless of whether or not someone pays for a product, money is spent to create it. The difference is that were I to pay for it, I would be contributing to their revenue. Because I do not, there is no revenue, thus it is not losing because what you claim is lost was gone before I made my choice to abstain from purchasing.

Because people wont spend money on overpriced tickets for shitty b-rated hack movies that arent worth watching.

Want to make money, make actually good movies that get people interested.

Hollywood is just turning their wheels without going anywhere and the rich elderly executives who are too proud to get the fuck out of their cushy jobs and let in new blood but dont have the faintest idea what actually appeals to younger people are fucking up. They fill their offices with orbiters and yes-men/women none of whom have any actual talent because that would upset the status quo and hey "weve been doing business a certain way for 50 years! Why should we change?! its the millenials, THEYRE THE PROBLEM! If we could only change how those upstarts think, im sure they will shill out 20 bucks for 90 minutes of mediocre entertainment, garbage tier food, sugar syrup water that they have to get dressed up and go out to experience."


When Hollywood becomes competitive with modern alternatives, netflix, videogames, VR, people will start paying for it again.

Why do you think Sonys only profitable department is video games? Its competitive with the modern markets because of competition and providing a good service that people desire. Whereas their movies are shit, overpriced and a chore rather than a joy.
