I'd make the case, the entire movie industry is like McDonald's, it's all mass manufactured crap simply repackaged over and over. The content is always the same, it's not satisfying, yet people eat it because it has lots of fat, salt and sugar.

The plot is this:

Bad guy is bad, so good guy needed. Good guy either hasn't been a good guy yet, so we spend 30 minutes on how good guy gets good, or he's already good guy, so he goes and fights bad guy. Bad guy obviously doesn't want to be beat, so that's another 30 minutes of struggle. Good guy beats bad guy at the end though.

It's a little more complicated than that.

Sometimes good guy loses.

Sometimes good guy wins by becoming bad guy.

Sometimes bad guy is turned into good guy by good guy.

Sometimes good guy is turned into bad guy by bad guy.

But these wrinkles on the usual formula are not common.

It's a different kind of soap opera, which is the point, you keep the actors working forever.

Far better than old Hollywood.

Like Hindu musicals, you just keep cranking them out.

It's all shit now. There are so few quality movies and that's only if you are able to overlook the obvious shit being injected into them now.

There have been so many even half decent movies already made, I figure I'm not going to have the time to even watch all of them. Don't know why anyone would want to watch anything new in comparison.
