Cellphones changed shape.

90s movies did not have 'MillenialSpeak' / 'Marvel-isms'. They had cheesy one-liners. Which were better.

Club scenes are no longer filled with Goths, they're filled with Jocks and Popular Girls.

Scores are generally much less unique and interesting these days.

More frantic pacing, contemplation is not allowed, outside of arthouse films.

I REALLY hate the new fight montages where they jumpcut every punch like in Matrix 4. They never let it settle enough for you to get your berings, feels like it's just a rabid weasel with a gopro starapped to it.

Art is conveying what you intend to convey, through constraints, bound by limitations.

The cleverness, the beauty... is not in disregarding those limitations, those handicaps.

It is in accepting them, and finding a way to do the job anyway.
