Has Hollywood lost the art of storytelling?
I agree with your essment. I do not see much in the way of quotable dialogue or even memorable scenes. I can quote scenes from several clics, but I cannot quote much from today's movies. I agree with the music and sound effects drowning out dialogue. I cannot remember which movie I was watching, but I wanted to understand what was being said, but the music drowned it out. I think it is funny that people today do not like clic movies because they say they cannot understand the dialogue. They say that actors talked too fast back then. People today want the flash and no substance. It goes to the dumbing down of the world. Nobody wants to think, they want entertainment. It is sad the way movies are today. I am happy that there are few exceptions every year, but not enough to see where the movie industry is heading, bad quality movies. Storytelling is a lost art form, considering how many times I have seen some clics being retold badly.
