    You've been holding this over some of us since Studioleaks. How many movies do we have to watch before you'll start thinking we have a basis? Your taste is fundamentally different than some of ours, yet you still act like we still haven't seen the right things or read from the right people. We're not going to magically start prioritizing what you do.

    No wonder you find it baffling. Can't speak for the others, but I couldn't care less about being told a story. I care about ideas, emotions, and how we can use form to say something instead of words on a page. Despite constantly denying it, you follow a very traditional metric of what makes a movie good. It's like you're more interested in how the cinematic landscape looks than you are with considering perspectives that clash with your biases.

    To go back to The Aviator, that shot of Leo overlooking the party is more telling to me than most scenes with dialogue could ever hope to be. Try to stop looking at what you think a movie accomplishes in a larger context (be it a career, decade, whatever) and try to look at what it accomplishes in the confides of its own makeup. You seem to only care about technique or form when it suits you, as with certain criticisms. Railing The Revenant for being derivative after praising Bone Tomahawk for being a fun throwback? Okay. There's room for both narrative and visual storytelling in film, stop judging the two the same way and maybe you'll start to understand why some of us think the way we do.

    he was sensitive, incapable of accepting any view point that went against his own, but yup, genuine nice kid. built the foundations for the thug section on this site, which has now become a corner stone of the site's identity.

    good guy, and his contributions here are forever lasting.

    bro his whole family got exposed on this site and he never ran off lol. you think some "married guy with a salary job" is running him off :laff: dude just got sick of the double standards with him and everyone else on the site.

    narsh hasn't logged in since Jun 23, 2016 and does not have an alias. posts are hidden for guests to read. i still talk to the guy weekly, he doesn't give a s--- about andy or anyone on this site outside of BC, me, jet, flacko, soldier, and any other friends he had on this site.

    Nothing like posturing about being an adult when you can't handle your liquor and meltdown on a forum.

    Don't get me wrong, I f--- with you, I've always valued your views on music. I never thought Andy was notable in any way but I never had an issue with him until he started attacking me. I think it's kinda childish to blindly follow his lead in this discussion because neither one of you know me or my work. Maybe you were salty cause of that JMG s--- the other day? I had nothing to do with that and the whole Manchester discussion had no ill will behind it.

    The only thing I've tried to do this past week is use the bumped up activity from the Oscars to get people interested in different films and for some reason captain Awesome didn't like my opinions so he spazzed, idk what was trying to be accomplished there. s----s corny af but his meltdown was caused by @Charlie Work's appearance in the thread I think so it had nothing to do with me, he literally did this all to himself by then starting to bash @Dew and @Mike Tyson, it was incredibly cringe and I commend you for trying to defend him still, but he was clearly being a shithead for no reason.

    when people come into film threads to talk about the deadpool movie, it's like me and my other 4 aussie mates shitspamming Kerser songs in the music section. tbh. Except Kerser is better.
