Old 1980's classics, movie that stand test of time

Desperado (1995)



Are movies like this still even possible anymore?

I mean has the tech age destroyed the whole cinematic moving making industry as it has many other industries by totally saturating the market with backyard, back barn produced films that now anyone with a cell phone camera can edit and produce?

From what I see it has, I mean I can't tell you the last time I've looked forward to any grand movie release with recognizable names and talent...it's been at least 10 years or so.

I just don't watch new movies anymore, don't even know where they're premiered anymore either, it use to be you'd just watch TV and new movie premieres would appear right along with the commercials, but not anymore.

Not sure where new movies premiere anymore, and that's what I'm saying, the movie industry isn't like it use to be, where are the big stars of today?

In the past you just new who the big stars were, today you have to be apart of some special niche of fans to know, and that's not good in that a star can't make as much money if only a small select group of fans even know they exist.

In the past, everyone knew who Tom Cruise was or Burt Renolds, or Tom Hanks or Bruce Willis and so forth, now, who's the latest and greatest male actor?

Or female actress?...I couldn't tell you.

The movie 'Desperado' is art, art, I mean does the film industry even have time for movies like this anymore?

Doesn't seem like it, and as such you have no more rising starts, again only and if one follows a small niche, does one know who the big stars are of today.

Or maybe it's just me, since older now, I just don't bother watching ABC,NBC or those stale night shows anymore, those have played out to me as well.

In the olden days, entertainment came to you, you didn't have to hunt it down on some app or special website, it was just in your face so you knew what was trending.

Anyways, I just happened to have old DVD of 'Desperado', and was amazed at how well this movie has stood up to the test of time, I miss when movies were produced like 'art', rather than like assembly line of cheap hamburgers, as they're produced today.
