Hi James--
I'm game, and I agree with your opening claim. It's been a while since I've seen a movie I thought was better than B- or so (exception noted below), especially an American one, and I can't stand all the comic book movies I see with my children (enjoy the time with them but not the films). I have wondered, though, if the change isn't within me, not Hollywood. I used to like movies and still like seeing an old favorite all the way through, but I am aware that I have a terribly short attention span now and would rather read a book, go for coffee, take a walk, or read the paper than see a film.
The recent movie I loved best, though, was "We Are the Best," a Swedish film about 12 year-old girls forming a punk rock band... Loved it!
