The State of the Cinematic Union
from If It Bleeds, We Can Kill It
Byrd, Trev, and special guest the Goat (Hillbilly DVD Reviews, 1980s Movie Graveyard, The Goat Show) discuss the current state of cinema. We discuss the reliance on blockbusters, blockbuster/franchise fatigue, theaters vs. streaming, the effects of Rotten Tomatoes, the treatment of indie directors on blockbuster films, the "cinematic universe" syndrome, bad movie theater experiences, pandering to Hong Kong, and more! There are a lot of changes going on in how we view and think about movies, and we'll get into the pros and cons of all of it! But first, a tribute to the late, great, George A. Romero.
