It really is amazing how a story can impact our lives. The narrative can be through a film, or book, screen play or even spoken word. It is beautiful how the translation of a series of events can be shared between human minds as a story. I feel like we take the entire process of story telling for granted. It doesn't matter if the works are fiction or non-fiction, but I feel as if it is a dying art, just like handwriting is being replaced by typing.
While there are may brilliant pieces of art still released today, the worlds media seem to just be focusing more on quantity over quality (just like the article about EA earlier). We are seeing more mindless movies about just explosions and action, combined with horrible stories and plots. I feels as if it is going to be hard to find another magical experience that truly entices the imagination of the audience. Works such as the earlier Disney movies, Star Wars, the classics, may never be seen again as new ideas.
It seems that society is becoming a thing that craves a short sense of excitement and then mindlessly wandering off, instead of having a narrative; a true experience that will blow one's mind. Short films that we will only remember for a few days and then that will be forgotten by next week instead of the films or books such as Harry Potter that has inspired an entire generation into reading, or using their imagination.
