Meh. None of it is worth watching anyway. The older you get the more you see it’s all trash and always has been trash.
While I agree with your sentiment, there's no need to yuck anybody's yum
I think a majority of people would say that every single new Marvel, Star Wars, and DC product is shit.
Hey no yuck shaming
Lol all available movies and all available tv shows from all time are trash?
“I don’t subscribe to ‘sPoTiFy’ or ‘aPpLe MuSiC.’ When I hit 22 I realized music SUUUUCKS.”
To write off entire art forms is…an interesting position to take.
When you grow up you’ll see
That's going to have to wait. In my 40s now, and still waiting for the "when you grow up you'll be conservative" to happen.
I’m old. I love music, I love film, I enjoy the craft of writing and appreciate what it takes to write a story that will play out visually and be spoken aloud and embodied by different types of artists and then lit by another type of artist and shot by another type of artist.
Age has nothing to do with liking art. Taste does. You either hate art or you just are very bad at finding things to enjoy.
That’s even more of a reason for me to pirate. I have access to pretty much every TV show, movie, book, comic, etc that I could possibly want from before my existence til now. I can get to it from anywhere in the world and i know that i’m not just gonna arbitrarily remove it. I can also get specific releases or better formats. I have scripts to easily remux audio or subtitles or whatever I want. I’ve even learned how to Web-DL from services I get for free from my ISP and cell carrier. My Plex server is definitely better than any single streaming service and I have quite a bit of stuff that isn’t on any. Would never choose to go back at this point with how convoluted and expensive streaming is now.
