Same with Daft Punk. I have listened so much to Alive 2007 and it breaks my heart that I could have seen that show live in my city if I had not been a stubborn teen who “only listens to real music” (rock and metal).

Yes thank you, that’s what I have tried to explain to so many people. It’s all about intent.

I love your use of Shutter Island as an exemple of a movie that tried too hard to be smart and mindbinding (even though I am usually a Scorsese fanboy). I felt a similar way about Inception. In comparison, Coherence surpassed both those movies in that regard with a budget of only 50k$.

However, in a completely different line, I loved John Wick because it was just about a guy going all berzerk at people that killed his dog. It was not trying to do anything else than being about people shooting at each other, but it was directed so well that I was hooked from the get-go.

The number of times I have expressed criticism at movies and people were lashing out at me for pointing out those shortcomings. I never said I did not like the movie, just that it was not a masterpiece. For some people a movie is either good or bad, and if you point out some criticism, then you did not like it and you are wrong for it.

People forget that not everyone on Lemmy are from the States, because where I am from leftists are usually really anti-gun.
