Cinema went down the shitter as a whole after this year

Cinema went down the shitter as a whole after this year.

True or false? I say true. inb4
>m-muh T2
>m-muh Pulp Fiction
>m-muh Fight Club

why 1990? seems kind of arbitrary

Probably because OP was born in 1989, and wants to consider his year of birth the last good year

I agree. T2 is the single most cancerous movie in cinema history. Imagine the films we would have today if sequel shit weren't the biggest go to the industry.

too late
it's an objective fact that cinema died somewhere in the 80s

Scorcese made decent movies until mid 2000's

>implying you didn't enjoy it

90s was a great decade for movies

>Dances with Wolves
>Goodfellas
>The Silence of the Lambs
>Schindler's List
>Forrest Gump
>Braveheart
>Fargo
>L.A. Confidential
>Titanic
>Saving Private Ryan
>American Beauty

sure you can say you personally don't like those movies, but they are still GOAT compared to the shit nowadays

but fight club and seven were good

Movies only started to be good in the 2000's anything before that is pure old shit

The nineties are great, mid 00's is when American movies went down the shitter.

This is bait. No one could be this retarded

I like epics, and LotR is one of the greatest there is.

this was unbearable
>bomb explodes
>"you probaby wonder how I've got here"
>sharon stone
>de niro and pesci play the same character in Goodfellas

Whatever you say grandpa

Gladiator, the best film ever conceived, was released in 2000.

Anyone older than 21 should just stop posting on Sup Forums at this point, its getting embarassing

Makes sense

>Dance With Wolves
>Forrest Gump
hello imdb!

I'm 20. Just not ignorant. You got 60+ years of media to catch up on, and you just watch the new shit

Fuck off newfriend

>Caring about old grandpa shit
Kek

I would say more like 2005.

True and false. There is still really amazing movies around, sadly most of them are independent and don't reach the common public. And there are still some good big directors with strong authorial films like PTA, Tarantino, Wes Anderson, Coen Brothers and some other ones.

The true big problem with the industry today is that they don't take risks anymore and they do the same shit over and over again. pre-1990 people did some great movies that would NEVER be made today, like Jurassic Park for example, no one would film a script about a oark of dinosaurs today because that's a huge risk, the same thing goes for Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Escape From NY, Blade Runner, Falling Down, The Shining, etc, etc, etc. Those things would never be done today because they cost way too much money for something that is uncertain. The same goes for all the arthouse stuff.

Tell me more about how great marvel movies are

lmaoing at your projecting, nobody ever said marvel movies were good

...

Go take your pills grandpa

Ok name a good movie

Hackers

>implying there weren't tons of shitty flicks in every decade

Only the good movies are remembered

>2016
>not strictly enjoying superhero movies and remakes

I say true. I also agree on the year, it's like exactly 1990. Are you me OP?

I'd say after 2005.

even mainstream movies like Lord of the Rings were top tier so 1990 doesn't apply at all

also, the 90s had some pretty baller comedies and children movies

>matilda
>jumanji
>hook

>Hackers
my nigga

>movies you grew up with are better than movies coming out now

w-what? No way

>Only the good movies are remembered
Not true, the movies that are hilariously bad or remarkably odd/bizarre are also remembered

You bring up a 90's movie to express how good modern movies are.
Are you shitposting?

tell me five children movies from the 2000s that are better than jumanji, casper, matilda, hook, and home alone 2

no animated movies of course

You desperately need to watch more films.

All of the Harry Potters

as much as I love the harry potter movies, only the first two come CLOSE and only cause they were made by chris columbus

These are the greatest films of all time:

Citizen Kane (1941)
La Règle du jeu (1939)
Battleship Potemkin (1925)
Vertigo (1958)
The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928)
L'Avventura (1960)
8½ (1963)
Bicycle Thieves (1948)
2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927)
Tokyo Story (1953)
The Searchers (1956)
The General (1926)
Greed (1924)
City Lights (1931)
Singin' in the Rain (1952)
The Gold Rush (1925)
Ugetsu Monogatari (1953)
Seven Samurai (1954)
L'Atalante (1934)
The Godfather Part I-II (1972-1974)
La Grande Illusion (1937)

The last great films ever made are:

Why Has Bodhi-Dharma Left for the East? (1989)
The Decalogue (1989)

Exactly 1990 is when it all went to shit and never recover.

Elf, Hugo, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
>implying 3 isn't the best one.

>the two earliest movies in the series are the ones you consider the best
>these came out when you were still a child

w-whoah

Are you implying sequels didn't exist before T2?

If T2, Pulp Fiction and Fight Club are the only "good" movies you can think of made since 1990, you should probably watch more movies.

elf was total shit, yet funny. charlie and the chocolate factory? jesus christ, have you even watched the original? how can you find the johnny depp one good after the original?

>implying 3 is the best one

only "muh timetravel" idiots think 3 is the best. 3 has way too many plot holes for it to be considered the best

no, it's because columbus knows how to make proper movies for kids. afterwards, the movies were great but they lacked the aesthetics of the first two because they were way darker

false you moron

Dances With Wolves is legitimately enjoyable you ignorant child.

Can confirm

1939
1966
1972
1984
1999
2007

are all amazing and groundbreaking years on the American Film Industry.

>reputation grows over time
2001 was panned during its time.

>any Pixar
Like cars

Matilda is honestly a terrible movie, people just look at it through rose-tinted glasses

I don't want to live to a time when Nolan will be praised as one of the best directors of all time. Recommend me any good suicide methods?

ump off a building. you'll lose consciousness on the way down and not feel a thing.

sauce?

there's always 'the awesome'.

Pic related is pretty good desu

Nah. History is filled with clunkers. We just forget about those over time and the best remain at the forefront. You have to compare the best against the best.

fuck you, Silence of the lambs is one of the best movies of all time.

Why not 1980?

Nah. What year did Van Helsing come out? That's the year Hollywood went to shit.

nice originality you tasteless IMDb Top 250 sheep

That's a pretty fine list and everything, but you out yourself as a retarded pleb with delusions of grandeur with
>nice originality you tasteless IMDb Top 250 sheep
That's is wrong and stupid on so many levels

I'll explain my reasoning

>Battleship Potemkin (1925)
Merely a propaganda movie and was outdone 4 years later in Man With a Movie Camera with a more competent Soviet director.
>Vertigo (1958)
Too fucking safe of an answer, even for Hitchcock's sake.
>The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928)
I would prefer Ordet instead or even Vampyr instead.
>8½ (1963)
La Dolce Vita Exists
>2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Not even Kubrick's magnum opus.
>Tokyo Story (1953)
Late Spring in held in higher regard by Ozu fans for a reason.
>The Searchers (1956)
Only the most popular Ford movie.
>City Lights (1931)
Best Chaplin but that's not saying much
>Singin' in the Rain (1952)
Musicals are awful.
>The Gold Rush (1925)
Not needed thanks to City Lights.
>Ugetsu Monogatari (1953)
Overshadowed by Story of the Last Chrysanthemums (which was way ahead of its time and irrefutably the best of pre-WW2 Japan), Sansho the Bailiff, and Life of Oharu.
>Seven Samurai (1954)
Only applauded for being an epic. Ikiru and High & Low are much more intimate and original.
>L'Atalante (1934)
The 30s were awful and L'Atalante was nothing special in the grand scale of cinema.

>Dance With Wolves
I doubt you've even watched it.

fuck off moron, theres tons of great films of that decade.
