Filmmaking Methods That R Ruining Movies: Methods of Madness

"A look at three technological innovations that might actually be doing modern movies more harm than good.

With all the movie making technology we have today, you would think that directors, producers, writers, and studio bigwigs would be churning out the best movies ever, but if modern movie-going trends are any indication, it would seem the reverse is actually true. Many of today's movies are missing the mark with audiences, and part of the reason why may have to do with the very technology filmmakers are using... or rather, in the WAY they're using it.

Today's filmmakers almost have too many tools at their disposal. Has this given rise to lazy filmmaking? Have people forgotten how to tell a good story because we have too many special effects tools to play around with?

This video will take a closer look at some of the tech within the industry, and at how modern moviemaking trends might just be ruining the ART of cinema..."

Sorry, but this argument is nonsense.
CGI, colour grading and digital cameras aren't "ruining movies". All those tools can be used well.

What's ruining movies is dumb scripts and bad filmmaking.

I mean, look at all those great films released between 1935 and 2005. There were so many more great films released during that time than there were in the previous 10 years. What gives? I bet the number of great films released in the former period is something like seven times that of the latter.

the math checks out.
