    I experienced cinematic mysticism right up until the midnight premier of The Force Awakens.

    2017 is when I fell out of love with the medium. It takes me watching some old to remember how much I used to love it because I genuinely forget now.

    Then, for everyone in this thread.

      Most of my favorite movies I only discovered when I was an adult. I still have a childlike wonder for film, but it tends to be for older movies (which I didn't grow up with)

    1998 for me. Late '90s in general, but '97 felt like the last real year to me. And this was well before the widespread use of digital cinema cameras, so I place the blame on the Internet. Everything became so samey because the Internet is just a giant echo chambers, which makes artists all try to just be the same as everything else that is popular. There have of course been some great movies since '97, but the frequency is much, much smaller.

    I'm gonna be honest, they never did. The more I learn about film, the more impressed I am by it. There's magic in film. In all art, honestly. Seeing a great movie for the first time still inspires the same awe as hearing a great song for the first time.

    Never? I went to see a bunch of films this year and they only reinvigorated my love for film and theatre.
    John Wick 4 in particular had the best sound design I've ever heard.

            Not really. As far as things go they were independent features.

                Sisu and Renfeld aren't shit movies. They're kino in their own right.

          Never heard of Sisu but I have some interest in Renfield. I'll check that one out when it's available on prime for free

            Update: I turned my TV on and there's a big ad telling me that Renfield is available on Prime. I have about 2 dozen movies to watch before I get to it but I'll watch it soon then

            Sisu was a fable brought to screen and Renfeld has Houltkino. I came for Cage, left with a morbidly depressed man fixing his life.

    The 10s/20s is like another world to me entirely. The 30s-50s is what the world should be. The 60s-80s is the best of a bad situation. The 90s is the beginning of the end. By the 2000s, movies have no charm, it's just the same drab shit I live every day.

    When they stopped using film and went digital. Somehow the soul is in the film. I remember when I watched my first movie like that, The Hobbit. It was jarring. The magic was gone.
