Must suck not allowing yourself to enjoy anything from the past, and only allowing yourself to watch the slop they make today. There's so many great old shows and movies to pick from.

I was with you until you generalized contemporary movies. Great things were made back then and great things are made today. Same for shitty slop.

You can literally listen to writers, directors, producers, and actors all talk about how cinema now is truly lower quality (including their own work) because it's specifically created to be a background not a center of attention. They specifically make shit for you to have on in the background while you scroll on your phone, this has drastically altered the quality of what is being filmed.

Some may. Others make art. Generalizing artists as a monolith is irresponsible.
