Well all the old investment guys tend to think something very similar.
I don't think anything has changed but yea I think options tend to be gambling. If it doesn't move enough, you lose. If it goes the wrong direction, you lose a ton of money. But if it moves fast and quick, then you make a ton of money.
As for call options, I don't think its bad if it incentivizes the corporation to do well. There is no point in exercising an option that doesn't hit the target.

Yeah from the company perspective and as incentive to employees and officers.
But to investors they are just speculating on a price move, either up or down.
