    Although mainstream media might be worse, there are stil lots of movies and series that are pretty high quality being released every year.

      1. What movies would you recommend that have come out since Dune as that is the last movie I have been able to care about at all? This isn’t meant to be read as sarcastic, I’m being completely sincere I would like recommendations.

      2. I’m not going to lie I just don’t trust non-indie series any more. I can’t trust them to not be arbitrarily cancelled part way through, or to be ruined after one or two seasons. There are too many burnt bridges and broken promises.

        1. Movies: Marcel the shell with shoes on, the worst person in the world, past lives, aftersun, everything everywhere all at once, the banshees of inisherin, licorice pizza, beau is afraid and I’m surely forgetting several others.

        2. For recent series, I can recommend: Severance, Atlanta, Scavengers reign, Fleishman is in trouble

            Maybe this is too blunt but that looks like crap and has poor reviews. I have way too many movies to watch so I don’t think I’ll waste my time with that one.

              Oh i said weird, not good.

              It’s a trip of a movie that feels like it might end up a cult classic eventually.

              Beautiful take on art in the industry with a blunt heavy handed approach to it’s metaphor and comedy. Like it’s performing surgery with a hatchet. It’s definitely something different is all I’m saying and didn’t hate myself for watching it.

              Edit: I mentioned it cause you said you watched Beau is Afraid.

            Not really interested in godzilla and I didn’t like the boy & the heron :(. The end credits song is a banger though.
