I never really watched a lot of movies growing up but then at some point realised there was so much that I was missing. Now I view the history of cinema as a smorgasbord and I am really enjoying jumping all over it.
I’m guessing you’re a good bit younger than me, but this is encouraging to hear. Find your favorite genres, watch what inspired them and you have so much amazing artwork and storytelling to explore.
For everyone that grew up with 10 marvel movies a year its not surprising that modern films don’t speak to them.
Challenge yourself and you’ll find your own rewards. I love video games and watching youtube too, but it’s not the same thing as turning off the lights and watching something like Apocalypse Now, Chinatown or a Kubrick movie without distractions.
