Oh my God I'm going to have to see that again! I just can't get over how beautifully shot that was. And what did that guy mean by "We Are Americans?" What does that even mean? Wow it really makes you think.
It was so boring though! Definitely something that you work too hard for.
Are you kidding? It was fantastic! The writing was great and the acting was so impactful.
No it was a snooze fest. There's nothing people gain from trying to be too artistic. It just makes them seem like artsy fartsy people.
I think you're just overthinking it. It's a good movie with a powerful, but indirect message. Just because you don't understand it now doesn't mean it's not potent.
I think that because I don't understand the movie, that people like me won't either. How are other people supposed to appreciate something that they don't understand?
But movies are about dissecting them to understand a deeper message, not watching something passively.
No, movies are entertainment, not art. If they were art they'd be shown in some A24 movie showing somewhere. Besides, movies are great for relaxing, eating some popcorn, and enjoying yourself. I didn't some here to write my doctoral thesis on the themes of that movie.
Maybe, but being active is fun too. Understanding why someone wrote something helps you appreciate other movies. How do you expect to be able to appreciate other movies like this one when you haven't had practice?
It's really just a matter of taste. There's an algorithm for these things, man. If the don't follow the algorithm, it's a bad movie.
Just because something is different doesn't mean it's bad. People should break the mold to progress the art.
There you go again with "art." It's entertainment, not art. People should be here with their families, watching a good flick with some movie theater ambience to have a good time, not to write a paper about the stuff.
I think teaching people to dissect these things more leads to better discussion and makes the movie greater. I love to talk about movies for weeks after I watched it. It makes the movie a better memory and a greater thing to talk about.
Yeah, and it puts some money back into the pockets of those directors too. Movies have a natural cycle and need to die out. That's how you get better movies after-the-fact.
Oh you dont say?
That's right!
