Legit OP only movie Ive watched since 2019 is Fury Road haha.

It feels like 8 out of 10 movies in general is a reboot, sequel, or MCU movie. As I didnt even like MCU movies in 2010, i especially dont care for constant releases of the same fight fest super hero movies and their adjacent reboots. Likewise i dont need to see john wick for a fourth time, jurassic park for a millionth time, scream, etc. And there is like a 1/10 chance its actually a good sequel or reboot and 9/10 to be lazy and cheap story telling.

It feels like its safer for studios to reboot and revise old IP even if it means not doing the original source material justice (i.e turning the Hobbit into 3 films, while injecting content that actually just drifts from viewer expectations per their bangout success with creating LotR).

Id say its almost worse for streaming too. Shows that are good dont end, they just become cliched after season after season keeps trying to make plot points move and change too. Everything just feels samey after a point and I kinda just loss interest.

I kind of feel like gaming is in a similar boat these days. So much unfinished or compromised games in general kinda kill my enthusiasm for trying anything new. You already have limited time and money, only to learn even after 1.0 releases and stuff games are just buggy messes lacking content.

Haha all the old stuff that used to interest me just took a dive and now i basically watch youtube or listen to music and podcasts for entertainment. Id probably go to a movie if someone asked but i dont even have a bearing on what has been released in the last few years.
