Disappointing year of movies and TV

I know its been a hard year for everyone for a few reasons but IMO its been even harder due to not getting much to entertain us when we need it the most.

I would have expected some companies to fill the gap and make VOD when they know so many people are at home and are avoiding crowded places.

Nothing new coming out or getting advertised, most big movies getting postponed again and again.
I cant even remember the last time I was looking forward to anything, normally you would expect a huge number,


IMO when things are back to normal I will only support the companies that supported us,
I will not be supporting the movies that postponed (again and again)

it may just be me
 
hollywoods still stuck in the 1940s cinema mindset.


watch some old stuff you probably didn't already.

takes hours of googling for me to find some good obscure thing I haven't already watched though

I have the same problem, I never know what to watch or ive already watched them a number of times.
I try to check everything out but I may not be interested in the synopsis or trailer, thats why some movies get pushed back.


That is why im always looking forward to something new.
 
Lol my watchlist is as long as a long thing, across Sky, Netflix, Amazon, Apple TV. No way I'd ever "complete it mate" -- no issues here there's plenty of stuff to watch.
 
TV has been good, film rubbish. All they seem to release now is rehashed versions of old movies and things about avengers.
 
I think most of you are misunderstanding.

Yes we have loads of old stuff but if your like me you have watched a lot of it.

My point is not many new movies or TV shows have been pushed out this year.
Normally you get loads of movies and shows every month when no one care but now we are in need of something to pass the time, they did not offer anything, most things have been shelved.

Ok I can understand due to corvid your not going to risk making stuff but a lot has already been made and shelved

other then disney and netflix I cant think of any company that pushed anything new.
 
I think he wants Amazon, Netflix and Disney to release all of the films already made because cinema is dead.

In a way this is happening with Disney releasing a few things recently and Amazon releasing Borat and Coming to America sequals soon.

I think current TV is on a good position but there will soon be a gap in the schedules for stuff that should be shooting now.
 
Can anyone name anything worth watching on iPlayer?
Try year and year if you've not seen it.

I think Amazon, Netflix and Disney are on the right page, they are releasing something every few months, it could be sooner but still good.

My issue is with big cinema not offering anything. how many time can you postpone something.

I mean whats the last time you was looking forward to watching something ?

Today actually. Just finished watching The Haunting of Bly Manor, one of those new series that you think don't exist or something.

What do you expect cinema to do? We're in a pandemic, their options are limited. Some have the facility to release on digital service like Mulan did but a lot don't have that option.
