Big issue is the lack of major studio films for adults. ‘The Godfather’, ‘Patton’, ‘Chinatown’, those type films are MIA. For the most part you have either summer blockbuster films full of CGI action, or you have the ‘small’ indie films for grownups. I don’t get to the movies much, but ‘Rush’ (Ron Howard) was the last really good film for grownups I saw (meaning good drama, good screenplay and good acting along with some action scenes).

Video games nowadays are even worse, because most of them are pretty much movies, and even the gameplay is so dumbed down and simplified that the only thing making them adult or teen rated is the violent or racy content. That’s really it. If anything, with few exceptions, most electronic games simply aren’t worth it, unless someone wants to just play the older ones from the 1990s/early 2000s.
