How do you cope with the fact that nothing is fun to watch anymore?
by watching anime
Anime is the most shit. It stopped being good in 2011
There’s a lifetime’s worth up until then anyway. But you’re also a homosexual because Ping Pong came out in 2014.
Ping Pong was the last good thing I watched. After the isekai wave of wish fulfillment shit
I got into some shoujou shit because of my Japanese wife. I enjoyed Kimi No Todoke and I’m not even one of those gaylord anime fans with nonce vibes. I’m mostly just waiting for Gainax to do recover and do something at this point.
>Japanese wife
>and I’m not even one of those gaylord anime fans with nonce vibes
More like Gaymax. Jokes aside, Gunbusters is one of my favorite anime
no one asked or cares about your wife blogging normalhomosexual
I just wanted to make clear that I’m not married to a fricking weeb, nor do I seek out shoujou anime for no reason.
I'm wifeless and I WILL be rewatching Cardcaptor Sakura shortly. I am exactly what you'd expect.
first season of rezero is the last anime I enjoyed watching
fun is a buzzword
why are normalgays like this
obesity, microplastics, xenoestrogens, near total lack of exercise in front of a phone or computer all day, neuroreceptor overload, antidepressants
to be normal in this society, to not need the constant dopamine coom, makes you the weirdo, so even if you are normal, you will be quite disconcerted by your surroundings
Normalgays despite existing in a vacuum they refuse to leave still consume products from outside it so they're noticing the "no fun allowed" trend which really just means every major facet of Western life being used as a propaganda arm for the mainstream.
The reason nothing is fun to them anymore is because almost every mass produced triple A game is politically correct DEI, ESG approved slop. These companies even have diversity style commissars these days that make sure the product meets it's DEI/ESG standards, do you understand that type of environment? It's sterile, cold, artificial, there is no creative freedom it's about maximizing profit while retraining maximum amounts of political correctness. That isn't fun. It's anti-human. It's anti-art. It's sick.
These companes are propaganda factories masquerading as creators of entertainment.**
This is just the ~~*marketplace of ideas*~~ functioning as intended, anon
they're not wrong for what concerns big budget productions in both videogames and movies, just find a niche
I dont watch movies or tv anymore. I only come here because it was always the funny board. Whenever I see a trailer I think "that looks like shit that would annoy me" and carry on with my day. A few weeks later my youtube feed is filled with video essays about how shit it was and what a betrayal of the fans it represents, and I realize that I was right once again.
Ive seen a lot of this shit. I dont know if its just ADD zoomers who have been playing skinner boxes their entire lives and are burned out from the overstimulation, or whether its indicative of normies waking up that games are dogshit now. Wont change anything, even if the industry wasnt full of politicized homosexuals, its still full of people who have only gamed as a hobby and went to game development colleges, rather than people who played sports and lived normal lives before learning to code; so its going to be incestuous and cookie-cutter from now on no matter what happens.
Your guesses about vidya burnout is pretty accurate. It took a few years but Microsoft's buyouts, design by committee development, outsourcing, incompetence from senior positions, etc. is ruining everything they can get their hands on. Writing quality for both mediums has taken a nosedive the past 1-2 decades, maybe longer. Every studio's the same way though, the total eclipse a few months ago just rattled a few million people
>if its just ADD zoomers who have been playing skinner boxes their entire lives and are burned out from the overstimulation
I don't think it's the skinnerboxes that are to blame in this case. I'm pretty sure it's just the endless cycles of hype overstimulating them combined with the fact that rarely do the games that eventually come out hold a candle to what they were all jazzed up for for a year straight. All the people I know who are like that either play like 10 AAA games a year and get super deep into the secondary fanbase shit as well and lore or they sink 2000 hours a year into a single game. If I were spending 40+ hours a week consuming a bunch of games that didn't end up meeting my wildly overinflated expectations I'm pretty sure I'd be extremely burned out as well.
Morrowind is the most I've enjoyed a game and I spent 90% of it reading about fictional politics.
Now I'm a fully grown adult who doesn't play games because I have a short attention span AND they're boring. I think it's a mix of me changing and games were always bad.
how can you be a Cinemaphile or Cinemaphile user and think films and games aren't in the gutter right now?
wdym? my post outlined exactly that.
I only watch old movies that I know are good
I have been playing the same old games for 10+ years already so it doesn’t matter what modern games are like
thyre not fun because every game tries to be a story instead of a game
take New Vegas, it is a choose your own adventure, with bland gunplay
I mostly watch 20th century movies
aww did the silly millennial finally get burned out from all the porn and social media? that’s too bad
im 40 and I still get tons of enjoyments form movies, shows, games, books. I feel sorry for people like you, not being able to experience that anymore.
Frick you
im not trying to be a dick about it. I have friends that are deeply depressed, and I wish I could do something to help them enjoy life, any part of it.
i hate depressed homosexuals more than Black folk
life is is to be enjoyed
same
i just watched some kino 70s movie the other day and now i'm playing an ancient mmo and having fun
people get hyped over new shit and then get mad when they get burned, when the right way to do it is to just ignore everything for years
if that guy who told you to watch a movie is still recommending it to you 5 years later, then you can begin to think it might be worth watching, not before
Do Youtube face. Do Youtube face!
homosexual
Based and same. homosexuals who spout bs like "games are not fun anymore" are just neets who from some point started treating they enjoyment more as a job. They wake up and then they game all day, no wonder it's no fun when you're doing it all the time, moron. Like everything in this world you need balance, appropriate dosages of different things in life, otherwise you're gonna end up as wallowing in self-pity dumbass posting doomer wojaks on mongoloid basket weaving forum (when that happens, I won't feel any pity for you)
Do you think Cinemaphile is still fun?
It's just attention disorder. If you train your concentration and get into movies and games you'll enjoy them again
Lots of time to plot vengeance.
Frieren still hasn't ended yet.
>nothing is fun to watch anymore
That sounds like depression, burn-out, or both.
I am having plenty of fun (maybe a little too much in fact). I wish there was more time in the world to appreciate it all- not just in movies and tv shows, but the world at large.
nonsense pseudo intellectual nihilism
There are plenty of fun things to watch, play, and do. You're likely just burnt out because you've focused too much on a limited set of activities and now your pattern recognition makes things seem trite and boring. Do something else. "Touch grass" is often used as an insult, but it's actually a valid suggestion.
If doing something else doesn't work, you're too far gone and need meds.
i still have fun on Cinemaphile with my friends
I rewatched the first Pirates of the Caribbean for the first time in almost 20 years the other day.
It's so fricking good. Like it's probably an average film by whatever standards, but frick me is it fun.
The Pirates trilogy >> lotr trilogy >>>> OT star wars
Most film, tv and vidya is unwatchable because of, dare I say it, woke. Compare the lord of the rings trilogy to the rings of power today.
>nyeehh why don't you like black elves heckin' chud bla bla
I wouldn't mind black haradrim and mediterranean numenoreans and some kind of sensible, the whole thing was a fricking trainwreck that didn't resemble the lord of the rings universe or the magic of Jackon's trilogy at all
What is the greatest kino in the past 5 years? Avengers end game? Barbenheimer? jeez It is all remakes, sequels, prequels, extended universes, nothing original. In the past you'd have all sorts of fresh original movies, now, dead. I don't know what is happening, it is all so dead. Which you would not expect since it is easier than ever to make movies nowadays, anyone can upload a YT video and use AI And greenscreens and shit. Maybe we need world war 3 or something to stir the pot.
I drink, smoke and play guitar hero on playstation 2
ITT: we name the last time we felt truly absorbed and happy
>Runescape (2005- 2007)
Same. I had some fun playing WoW around 2012 off and on until about 2015. Hard to believe 2015 was almost 10 years ago now. How fricking horrifying.
First act of BG3
watch some anime
rewatch older stuff
play video games that are not pozzed and there is a massive backlog available for that shit while I have already watched nearly all films worth watching
>watched so many films / TV shows that nothing surprises me anymore
>can immediately spot the character traits and formulas they're using to construct the story that I've seen a millon times before
>endings are never satisfying
>TV shows especially rarely take any risks because characters feel like they're never at real risk
Because it's time for you to learn a new hobby. your movie watching days are behind you, accept this and you will be happier.
Sounds like a (you) problem.
It's a personal problem. It has nothing to do with media quality.
I am sometimes paralyzed with choice for how many FUN things there are. That is not my problem. My problem is engagement. Staying engaged with things is becoming harder. Because fun on it's own is not engaging, it gets boring really quickly actually.
not even sex?
>How do you cope with the fact that nothing is fun to watch anymore?
Me and my wife had fun watching the Barbie movie when Ken was doing his musical number. My pals and I had a lot of fun watching Godzilla Minus One. My kids and I watched Bluey together and had fun. I had a lot of fun playing Lies of P a few weeks ago. Seems like a you problem, anon
PalWorld is lots of fun.
I have a great time watching things from the past. I've recently discovered Robert Altman and Peter Bogdanovich.
