Adam Olinger is easily the most left-liberal of the movie reviewers I watch, but in the following video, as he rants about social decay and how it's ruining the moviegoing experience, he sounds awfully conservative. As I heard again recently, we're all conservative about the things we know. Adam knows movies and moviegoing, so he gets defensive when his experience is being shat upon by people who just don't care:
In Korea, we occasionally have obnoxious people who check their phones during a movie, but for the most part, the moviegoing experience here is reminiscent of how things were in the US during the 80s and 90s (Adam references the 90s). I can see the veneer of civility slowly slipping, though. If I'm still in Korea as a very old man, I doubt I'll be hitting cinemas at all. Streaming video all the way (or whatever the future brings—neural nano-implants?).
