OH NOES!!!

So, since Lady Gaga is the most popular 'musician' right now, her music is better than everyone else's?

You may not like it. I may not like it.

But we are in the minority, so ultimatly we are more wrong than the millions of fans are.

That still doesn't make her "music" better though.

 

[The Ween]

If you boys don't start behavin' you're gonna get a lickin'!!!!

there is really no good music these days. the days of great, real music is long gone, for the most part anyway.

Dirty minded bastard!!!!! Shame on you!!!!

Why not? We may not like it, but we can't automatically write off the opinions of millions of people who think it is great, and that the music we like sucks.

 

[Bullseye]

Popular music is now all about making pornographic videos. There is great music being written just don't expect to hear it on the radio.

 

[intothevoid]

^this

There is some incredible music out there - the problem is discovering it

 

[ShadowX81]

And that is all subjective. What we think is great music may suck to the millions of people content with what is out there.

Why is our opinion better than thiers?

 

[intothevoid]

Ok some things are not subjective

Extreme example

Rebecca Black is not better than Opeth

 

[CelticPredator]

This is why children shouldn't watch movies made for adults. Unfortunately not all films can be like music videos, unless they're directed by Michael Bay. Stick to watching Predaturd films while playing with your NECA toys kiddo.

Three things Devy Dev...

One: Michael Bay is awesome. He makes the coolest brainless action movies.

Two: Predator is a great film. Dont lump it in with the rest.

And Three: I agree.

 

[CelticPredator]

That's just my comment on what this thread turned into.

No, thats still subjective.

If millions of people happened to feel differently, she is.

 

[CelticPredator]

Not really.

UltraViolet is a poor film.

Goodfellas is a great film. Dont care if you like one or the other, the fact is, one IS better then the other.

 

[devilof76]

Saying that the value of art is subjective is just being polite. Or dishonest.

I haven't figured out which, but I'm not sure I really need to.

 

[SwedishHeat]

Isn't it a good thing that younger, "hipper" people are joining the Academy?? More people who are in tune with "popular" tastes, means it's more likely that popular movies will win awards rather than movies about 'special' people.

You know Feige is gonna nominate Avengers for Best Picture, haha.

it can be good and bad. hipper young people in the acadomy might not like serious dramas, or recognise what makes a great movie, whether they liked it or not. older members will make beter choices. last thing we need is Jackass being nominated for real awards. if someone like Celticp ever became a member we would see dumb mindless action Bay type movies being nominated for awards other then Razzies. so younger hipper members isn't really a great thing. most of the names they mentioned don't really no crap about what makes a good movie. l mean Beyonce what the hell does she no about movies. she hasn't ever been in one that was any good.
