it's always a race to the bottom with capitalism, obviously no one here is surprised but it's amazing how starved we are in a way for actual good cinematography. Some really good stuff still comes out but you know, the bar is so low that it can be a bit difficult to judge how good it really is sometimes when practically all you see is just churned out garbage. It's so rare for me to be wow'd by new films now, but i know it isn't a lost art, there is still some dope ass people out there trying to make the movie of their dreams and shit.
