Boring video.
As for the the topic, people have been saying that America is dumbing down and that's why the movies are the way they are. That has yet to be substantiated and we also don't know which came first, the dumber movies or the dumber people. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy because when people know they are going to see the same formula, they will continue to pay to see the same formulas in movies. People also will stop expecting to think when they go to theater.
I don't think that foreign movies are better or "smarter." I also don't think that foreign people are smarter. They are just filling a cultural niche. The Ring was interesting to many Americans because many didn't know that it was a Japanese film first and that the original was better. It was an interesting "introductory" concept.
We can't use The Oscars as a metric for quality movies or where the better movies come from. The Oscars are Hollywood politics.
Sorry, T La Rock, LL killed it.
