according to modern film scholars, this cultural shift was brought about by the lasting audience impact of that scene in Speed (1994) where the bus fucking noclips across a gap while pretending there’s a ramp it’s using to jump (or Keanu made it pop a wheelie?)
"Are you telling me I can jump a bus across a 50 foot gap at 67 miles per hour?"
"No Neo, I'm telling you that when you're ready, you won't have to."
Wasn't 1994 right about when they stopped making movies in black and white?
