[Rant] Why do we still have movies with 90s thinking

Saw Fighter trailer and the f* are the dialogues?!

India 'maalik' of Kashmir Hum Pakistan ke 'baap' hai (the PM character says this) India Occupied Pakistan

I have all the heart for soldiers who have given their lives saving us, but why have they made it pop culture

But majority of India still thinks this way and will love the movie Plus, it has the most gorgeous cast, if nothing else people will go for them

Stopped paying attention to bolly’s since mission mangal movie. A successfull mission like Apollo, but these dumbo’s had to add indian tadka on it, where Akshay is jumping on the bench and talking to former NASA senior. Vidya balan is misteriously getting the orbital concept while frying puri’s at her kitchen. Trust me, Martian is a fiction movie, yet far more better than mission mangal set, which was a real event.

I rarely watch any new movies, mostly I’m picking up old shitcoms and pun movies, lightweight!

Secondly, why they’re stuck on 90’s mindset, because it’s a mediocre market with mediocre taste, and people love it.

See I thrive on Bollywood, I watch good content and mindless ones too. My problem is with the mentality

Like Bollywood propagated the shining armour lover boy ideas in 90s, it is more realistic now.

Why can't you show nation in same light. We are doing so good in some areas, some still need work. Let's talk about them

What sells in Bollywood:

  1. Jingoism
  2. Smut
  3. Romance thats anchored on stalking.

Coz it’s a sureshot formula for an average film to make tons of money. Give the audience what they want to see, and not what they need to see 🫠

Bootlicking and chest thumping jingoistic culture.

How you want them to exhibit an emotional euphoria? First rule of a stage-play/drama schools is amplify the emotions.

The CGI is really giving me anxiety. Every country wants to do a TopGun after the latest sequel, but honestly no one can beat Uncle Sam on that. Really want to see the end output of all that effort and chest beating

Patriotism at crossroads

In two different minds here

Of late I have been watching many India glorifying movies/shows - Rocketry, Manikarnika, Rocket Boys. On other hand, riots based on community and religion make me wonder how can people put own country down. ...
