    regarding the butthurt, there’s someone on here who is rather butthurt and likes to express it.

    regarding the movie, I have not seen it recently but I am a film buff. It was part of my film education in the 90s, so i have recommendations for a few different people

    if you’re into film (you want to make it or you just want to watch a lot or maybe all of it), absolutely yes watch it. There’s stuff in there worth picking apart and figuring out what they did. What appeals to you might be different than what appealed to me, so go into The Great Movies (or even just ones you hear are good) as fresh and unbiased as you can so you can form your own opinion and see what you want to learn out of them. As soon as you’ve decided to see something, ignore everyone about the film, no trailers (unless you’ve decided you want to make trailers i guess, i hadn’t considered that) and go see it. Then once you’ve made up your mind, go ask us nerds what we think and tell us you JUST SAW IT we will be so excited. Half of us will run off to our little homemade movie caves and watch it again just so we can keep up with the conversation.

    If you just kind of like movies and are getting into them as a hobby: what can it hurt? if it doesn’t grab you, you can always turn it off. THIS IS A GOOD THING TO PRACTICE [note to self] since the only real commodity you have is time.

    if you don’t like movies and are just looking to make noise on the TV while doing chores or something: i mean why are you asking? just turn it on and do chores. I don’t remember loud explosions.
