content: Anytime I point out how crappy all of these new movies are, I get grief for living in the past or for chasing nostalgia. "You're just experiencing nostalgia, it's not real, get with the times."  They're going to sit there and tell me my opinions are off, and that i'm like depressed or something for not enjoying every steaming pile of shit that is served to me. The times fucking suck, why can't people grasp that? My theory is that people have reached a point where they will flat out just accept ANYTHING. Unless it's like an Adam Sandler flick and just blatantly and painfully obvious that it's awful, they are willing to settle with mediocrity. It must be a survival technique, in order to keep the spirits high you must convince yourself that everything isn't shit. It's like giving up logic and reason for a good time. Just another part of our hedonistic society.
