Good movies can no longer be made because the average audience is too stupid

Just another proof that "Idiocracy" was a documentary.

So you're claiming this movie was just too smart for a lot of people?

Never seen that complaint made regarding this movie before.

eh, IDK You can find someone who doesn’t like any movie no matter how great you think it is. I think there’s still a descent amount of good movies that come out.

I remember that feeling, I was there at one point. Any film has depth beyond all intentions, we carry that depth with us, it is our responsibility to see beyond the surface of life, not up to the outside stimuli. I would step further and appreciate to see more perspectives that reveal personal feelings towards specific areas of the film, not just themes, but aesthetics, colors, shapes, specific tones, moods, anything that is awakening something in us, our traumas, our past experiences, anything that makes us relate, sometimes people do so anyway, however unintentionally often, not for the purpose of exploring our souls through the art we observe or create, or any experience that affect us somehow. I remember growing up and gradually getting disappointed how even most artists are cynical, superficial people despite creating great depths in what they do, yet never seeing it themselves. There is no bad art to me, there's only an entirely neutral experience, to show us who we are.

Its more like executives think everyone is retarded. In reality, covenant underperformed compared to the smarter but still very flawed prometheus and alien/aliens are household titles

Americans do, yes.

The audience isn't too dumb it's the writing in this movie. They turned up the 'dumb' in this one after Prometheus, which was by no means a member of Mensa itself.

You aren't giving audiences enough credit. They realised this one was a bit of a stinker and that's why it underperformed at the box office. Rightly so.
