Kill yourself
>You have to turn off your brain and watch it
Thats not why I watch movies
style is substance
how a film is shot, edited, acted, etc., all effect what is communicated, influences whatever meaning the viewer gets from the movie

Wrong
incorrect
bullshit
imagine The Seventh Seal was shot like Transformers, or vice-versa. Would you still take away the same meaning from each film as you do now?
>I didn't like it; all of the characters were bad people
>It was too depressing
>"this movie is full of plotholes"
>turns out they aren't plotholes, the idiot ranting about them is just too dumb to understand what was going on
>The characters weren't relatable.
Yes Transformers would still be a braindead flick about giant robots fighting for no reason.
Kill Bill a good example of a pure style over substance movie.
style informs substance. Style is not substance itself
>I could see what it was trying to do but it didn't work for me.
>NOTHING HAPPENED!
Acting like minor, nitpicky plotholes just kill the entire movie.
>it's fun!!!
>It's just a revamp of the old ghost busters movie with an all female cast!
>just turn your brain off bro
>What?? Batman vs. Superman?? That sounds so dumb dude I'm not gonna watch that.
