When did good start to mean edgy?
When did "I don't like it for obtuse and unclear reasons" start to mean edgy?
Old boy isn't a very good movie. The atmosphere and action are very good though.

Look up edgy, come back :)
People have praised "edgy" film-making since the damn 70's. Think about movies like Dirty Harry and The French Connection stripping off the Jack Webb Dragnet hero cop cliches and showing how fallible and human they can be or are.

Do you know how long ago they came up with Oedipus?
Incest isn't edgy.

That's a pretty stupid thing to say anon, when a film is good, it's good regardless if it's edgy or not. Also oldboy wasn't edgy, Mr. Robot is an edgy series or Fight Club.
I loved how rattled this fanbase got by the remake. Hundreds of movies are remade every year, but Oldboy's fanbase cried so hard, like the little pussies they are. They went on a smear campaign, rating the movie 1 star on IMDB without ever watching it. They claimed to have gone to the theater, and walked out after 5 minutes, etc. Big bunch of little faggots ever. If you get upset about a remake of your edgy masterpiece, you're a huge pussy and should kill yourself.

It is in today's society, what I'm getting at is that most people only like/pay for what's edgy, ie why the film industry is laughably bad nowadays.

"edgy" movies have always been praised, the whole Noir genre started the trend.
