The clichés irk me where they didn't use to

When did I become this picky person who pulls apart plot points and critiques the chemistry between characters and the flow of the story and the character arcs and the believability of the story?

I feel like I just can't enjoy movies the same way anymore.

I still love the items on my tried and true craptastic film list. I still have cheesy predictable movies that I love, it's just becoming harder and harder for new films to make the list.

Hollywood — would you make a good movie already? I'm tired of the B-storyline being sold as an A film... or maybe it's just me?

  1. It means you're being critical! That's the best thing to be - then you will be high class. :)

    I agree with you a lot. Now a days I find it's the strength of the actor that can pull a floppy plot into an enjoyable watch. I saw Crazy Stupid Love - it was supposed to be so cute, but I couldn't stop nit-picking it! Even though it was a 'fun' move, there was something about it that irked me.

  2. Oh my gosh! LOL I just watched that last night and it inspired this post- hahahaha. I didn't like it even though I thought I would going in. Too much didn't work. I agree - something irked me.
