Boredom Identity

I can't remember the last time I was excited to go to the movies, or listen to the radio. Because it seems like I just watched or heard the same thing last week.  My word I get tired of the formulas used to create today's so called "entertainment". I just wait for it to come to DVD to be marginally impressed. Or turn off the radio after hearing the seven or eight songs that will be on it for the next month.  Now don't mistake my demeanour for pessimism, I just have low expectations for most things. Which apparently makes me a happier person according to a recent issue of Time magazine, because then I'm never disappointed. Sure I feel a little left out of the monotonous conversation about the new _________ man movie or the title which goes as follows, adjective followed by  noun. My only problem with the level of quality is that I'm always left wanting more. Pretty much like eating at the same restaurant day in and day out because your friends have no standards and everything is always "the best". Which makes the chance of getting something different almost like the next hit of meth (I know, a bit morbid), an insatiable want. I yearn for another Silence of the Lambs, Saving Private Ryan, and Green Mile. Sure for the hipsters any hint of artistic flavor makes it an instant classic, well I'm tired of Art House crap. Give me some grit with legitimate substance, suspense that doesn't stick to a rigid plot line which makes the outcome so obvious it's almost pathetic. Now it's not like I'm oblivious, I know a lot of focus is on people in tights because that's what sells. I'm just saying that I'm over the trend. "Hulk Smash!" doesn't do it for me, tell me hulk why DO YOU SMASH? Did you have a sad home life, not many friends as a child, got your lunch money taken? I'm aware that there have been background movies, but they seriously lack depth. It's as though those movies have the attention span of their targeted audience "Ugh, why do I care about Bruce Wayne's parents I wanna see Batman". Kinda want to tell them to go sit in the corner and calm down. But, I know that i have to take a step back and realize what the whole purpose of these movies are. To make as much money as humanly possible through the movie itself, and all other merchandise including video games,clothes and the soundtrack. So yeah, of course these movies won’t be reflected upon in the future as some great achievement, more like super cheesy. Because by then their special effects will eclipse the capabilities of our own.
