Indeed. I have a growing disgust with popular culture. They beat the same plots/characters/themes like a dead horse. It's not even the media's fault either because people eat that shit up over and over. I don't even have cable anymore. Can't even remember the last time I went to the movies.

I've always been more fascinated by people that put together quality work without an enormous budget. With Hollywood budgets it should be impossible to make junk, yet they succeed in doing so time and time again.
