As I watch all the previews for movies on TV these days, I’m
beginning to think I may not be able to see another movie ever again. Or at
least not another movie in the theater. A couple of years ago I vowed not to
see any movie that featured explosions in its advertising. That increasingly
became a lot of movies. Recently I’ve added CGI monsters or violent car crashes
or fantasy weirdness in general. I just want to watch movies about real people
in real places dealing with real situations, something I might be able to
relate to. I have no use for cartoons writ large on the movie screen. But that
is apparently what we’re being given and I understand I’m not in the
demographic for what passes for entertainment these days. The only comfort I
take away is that I’m saving some amount of money in my retirement by not
plopping down $10 for that crap. -- Hey! You kids get off my lawn!
