Okay, so first of all I'm 21 and I'm still young, but I feel like I've seen/heard it all. Everything in the industry is becoming dull to me, and feels like producers, writers, directors are out of ideas. 'Cause everything good has been made already.
Music was at it's best in 80's, 90's and at the start of 21st century. Nowadays all an all it is just remixes of the old hits, Justin Bieber and Jonas Brothers taking all the spotlight in the radio and all the young talents whoring themselves to the music industry's commercial ideals. And when you really think about it, how can someone make lyrics for a song which hasn't been made already? All the topics have been sung and all the stories have been heard.
Movies, woah, where do I start there. I mean really, when was the last time something like Indiana Jones, Godfather, Forrest Gump, Terminator, Gladiator, Star Wars, American History X, Full Metal Jacket, Back to The Future and the classics like that has been made? It soon has been a decade since the Lorf of the Rings trilogy was made and after that there really hasn't been any reeally breathtaking movies. Departed, Dark Knight and Inception are exceptions.
I mean, there are talented actors but to me seems like the movie industry has lost it's "light" that it once had and new actors have pressure of filling shoes of great actors such as those seen in the previously mentioned films..Action movies are nothing more than as much as possible guns, explosions and overacted action scenes, example for that: Transformers movies.
Cartoons nowadays are the worst of them. Do you guys (18yrs -->) remember He-Man, Spiderman, TMNT, Chip N Dale, Ducktales, Gummybears, Biker Mice From Mars, Power Rangers (90's), Talespin and likes of those? WTF do we see nowadays kids watching from tv?! Super Hyper Pokemon and spacecheese sandwiches and all kinds of retarded stuff! I mean I pity today's kids 'cause they didn't get to see what we did.
Games (console/pc). Well I don't see this part as much of a fail nowadays as the ones mentioned above. There are classics and present game industry is advancing at high pace, but still something is missing. It's not such of a big of deal to play console or pc games nowadays. Halo, CoD, Tekken are good but classic material? It's just sequals and remakes of old games.
Conclusion: All and all the entertaiment industry today is very lame, atleast for a guy at my age. I don't see myself thinking 10 years from now about present movies or songs, like I do now about the classic/hits from 70's -- > start of the millenium movies, songs and show's.
Discussion: What do you guys think? Do you agree and if so, how did it get to this? Is it going to get any better from here on or are the glory days history, forever...?
(btw I'm not depressed, opposite of that, I just honestly feel this way)
