A lot of Hollywood movies objectively suck, yet they are billion dollar enterprises. There are plenty examples, such as most of the 4th of July Disaster movies, Transformers, a lot of the super hero movies, etc.. They are objectively trash, yet have a huge impact on young people all over the world.
- stcredzero 10y agoThey are objectively trash, yet have a huge impact on young people all over the world. Like comics. Comics are simply a hot mess. However, they influenced generations of young people, who are now working and running things. Now we are overrun by comic book movies. (Disclosure: I am a comics person.) I think Theodore Sturgeon got it right. 90% of everything is shite. Humans will still go on creating timeless works of truly great media and art, however. We need to live for the 10%.
- yummyfajitas 10y agoI don't know what you mean by "objectively suck". If they make a billion dollars it sounds like someone enjoys watching it. The fact is that people want to watch Spider Man's Teenage Heartbreak (or whatever that last Spider Man movie was called). I may not enjoy it, but so what?
