Concepts like the Blockbuster is introduced. 1980s is called 'one of the weaker decades in cinema'. The rise of independent films revive cinema again in the 1990s.

Films that are structured into chapters are a storytelling technique that allows for a non-linear narrative or the division of a longer story into smaller, more manageable parts. In these films, each chapter is a distinct segment or scene that serves to advance the plot or to provide different perspectives or flashbacks. This structure can create a sense of unpredictability and keep the audience engaged, as they are constantly presented with new information and twists in the story. Examples of films that are divided into chapters include "Pulp Fiction" (1994), "The Killer" (1989), and "Interstellar" (2014). The use of chapters in films allows filmmakers to be more experimental and inventive in their storytelling, and to create unique and memorable movie experiences.

Rotten Tomatoes - Best of year

American Eccentric Cinema is a mode of contemporary American filmmaking that emerged in what has been termed the metamodern or New Sincerity. Its attachment to indie cinema has led some to consider it a movement and genre of cinema in the United States.

Complete movies of the great directors. Starting with Quentin Tarantino and the Coen brothers.

Equivalent to comfort food. In my opinion a good comfort movie is a film that you can watch over and over. Also you can put on a good comfort movie and if you are sick you can go to sleep and have it on in the background.
