No plot, no character development, lousy “leading men” actors, non-stop strobe lights flashing, things exploding, overblown special FX, recycled themes. Yuck, yuck, and more yuck.
Then the movie theater scene sucks big time. Bright cells phones all over, people talking, ENDLESS LOUD previews with strobe lights.
Where are the “leading men” like Fonda, Stewart, Wayne, Welles, Peck, Bogart, Grant, Crosby, Tracy, Cooper, Brando, Newman, Gable, etc. I honestly cannot think of a “leading man” actor in the past 30 years that rises to the stature of the movie actors of the 40s through 60s.
Movies were so much better years ago (and I’m talking in the 40s before I was born and in the 50s when I was too little to know about them and had no way to watch them even if I knew about them).
Movies and NFL — two sides of the same coin.
You certainly are living in the past.
There have been some great movies since the 50s and many good actors.

Now, there's another thing to hate. The "upgraded" theaters have soft, reclining chairs and you have to choose a seat when you buy a ticket. It was much better to be able to choose a seat according to the dynamics of the audience. And those soft seats? Yuck. I worry about bed bugs and who knows what other pollutants were left behind.
Yes I agree about today’s leading men. They don’t even compare to the actors from the Golden Era. I prefer watching older movies.
The no longer exist. All gay, all the time; and, if they are not "gay", they are not really masculine either.
