I don't watch indie films that often anymore or go the cinema as much anymore either. I used to watch all the B gay indie movies in the late 2000s before I came out though now not really. It's all the about money and cashing in on nostalgia nowadays. Films studios also don't want to take any chances and there also a lot of nepotism in Hollywood which allows no talent hacks to rise to the top. Interjecting modern politics into films in a way that's doesn't attempt to disguise is also off putting. There is a way to do it so they don't take center stage but that is exactly what they are not doing nowadays. Combine all this together and it's not a recipe for quality.
