@KetaMeanberg Unless you have further elaboration, I don’t see how compressing down weeks of coverage into a (likely exaggerated) half-hour is a failure for any documentary
@MariGO2thepolls@RachelLeishman Explain how the documentary was evil, and then explain how you bought tickets without realizing it doesn’t fit within your morals
@sonnyboyoyo@Ramiro235_@Kaizerrev@DiscussingFilm These movies are the best in history, but that doesn’t mean they werent made with massive commercial success in mind. Thats not a bad thing
Jaws is a masterpiece on the Sight and Sound, but it’s still a widely accessible blockbuster. I think it’s okay to recognize it as such
@sonnyboyoyo@Ramiro235_@Kaizerrev@DiscussingFilm All 3 films are widely accessible and big budget entertainment. They’re not really considered “high art” despite being great art
The point is that these movies are all examples of great art that still have mass appeal, and we should hold blockbusters today to the same standard
