Has there been a single movie like this since the mid-1990s? Blood Sport, Aliens, Predator, Jurassic Park - it seemed like all the major tent pole movies before 1999 inspired so much creativity. Nowadays what the fuck do we get from popular movies? The MCU has been a thing for longer than a quarter of the world's population has even been alive and all it's done is spurn on more capeshit movies that just rehash the exact same plot over and over and over again.
