> at the same time it's unbelievably sad that in recent years about 70% of the movies i saw at a cinema were multiple decades old.

There are literally thousands of good movies released between ~1890 and last year.

It’s improbable more than a hundred or so will come out this year that’re worth your time, and they’ll be harder to sort from the junk this close to release.

If anything, it’s amazing new movies have as large an audience as they do.

good point i guess, time allows for the good stuff to be remembered and stay relevant.

kind of how some movies like The Big Lebowski were considered flops but nowadays are cherished cult classics.
