Remove the focus about "older films"

| Jul 27, 2022 at 10:37 | comment | added | Napoleon Wilson | ...Then you also say the "majority" of films do that and you name...two Spider-Man films, which is a somewhat confined set of examples. This might lead people to believe you're just imagining things based on a very limited experience. Again, you're probably pointing to a genuine trend (or rather a timeless issue), but it's really not expressed all that appropriately. | |
| Jul 27, 2022 at 10:37 | comment | added | Napoleon Wilson | Your question might generally be pointing to a genuine issue worth asking about, but it's really not bringing it across particularly well, which might be causing the downvotes that the topic itself might not actually deserve. First, calling films before 2010 "older films" just makes no sense, no matter how old you are. That's simply not how the world works. Maybe just leaving away the film age factor would work better, since this is a timeless issue, as Paul points out in his comment... | |
