I was watching the 90s version of The Mummy last weekend and I was shocked by how much competent it was than modern equivalents. Surely I'm not immune to nostalgia, but the pacing and the way it communicates what you need to know about each character was very precise and well done
We mainlined videostore boy recs and weird imports and old cinema so we could snark at serviceable big budget stuff because no one, no one had could fathom they would just stop using cinematography, color, montage and script acts making movies to $ave…wait, make 20x more expensive to make somehow
