When an entire form of media sucks, the discussion around it does, as well. The problem is that all entertainment media, including video games, has sucked for the past decade at least.

Movies do not have anywhere close to the value prop required to justify theatre prices. It's 90-120 minutes of entertainment, and you're not getting out of there for less than $30 per person at least. Do you know how many video games I could buy with that money? I could even get a few months of a subscription package which has infinite movies and doesn't require me to leave my couch. If I'm enough of a nerd to know how to pirate shit, the cost goes down even more, and it's so much more convenient.

This business model worked in a world where TVs were shit and there was nothing to do all day except go outside. That world is dead and never coming back, so there's no sense in trying to keep profiting from it.

I can assure you that Heroes was bad at the time, too. Even my six-year-old self knew it was a massive downgrade from either Adventure game.

When did Gen 3 get retconned into being one of the good ones?

Why you gotta speak like a fag man

I didn't like 1. It was too serious in its story telling but it didn't feel sincere. It just ultimately comes off as a bland film with its only high point being the avalanche scene (and even that ended up dragging), Mecha Shredder and elevator scene. The rest of the film falls flat.

2 is almost as bad, but its at least entertaining in a retarded way. Everything is over the top, with absolutely ridiculous performances from the whole cast. The biggest negative I can give it is the God awful casting and what the absolute raping they did to Casey Jones as a character. With how stupid the rest of the movie is, they decided to make Casey the straight man? What the fuck.
