What film, show or game that is not necessarily 'underated' didn't have the level of social impact it deserved. (slrpnk.net)

What's the antithesis of Arrested Development, Firefly or The Big Lebowski? Those may never have 'found their audience' but over time seemed to recognised by everyone. What are the deep cuts that you liked but it feels like everyone has completely forgotten they even existed.

People just don't have the patience anymore to soak in a mood and atmosphere while a story slowly unfolds.

I feel like it also wasn't marketed at all. The only reason I knew about it is because I check what's playing in IMAX every month.

I never saw a single ad or any hype for it

I must say that I felt the atmosphere was forced in 2049. In the original, the atmosphere was part of the setting and not lingered over. 2049 forced the audience to look at it, “soak” in it as you say, and I thought it was detrimental to the progress of the film. JMO, of course. Still a great movie.
