Let's get 5 minutes of this establishing shots with this character that's in a violent crime drama doing the most mundane s*** like buying groceries

then kill em

directors be like: let's have 2 hrs of absolutely nothing happening and call it "slice of life" film making

Directors be like let’s introduce a love interest strictly to add character conflict n depth to the protagonist but not establish them to be anything other than a one dimensional narrative device

woah there that's disrespectful

You’re thinking of a writer

A genre that’s respected when anyone but black folks do it

Directors be like let's make a show seemingly about a legacy character but focus on a new character that nobody gives af about unless we bait and switch.

Directors be like: let's shoot lingering scenes of nature and other random environmental shots, and have a pseudo-philosophical voice over to make the whole package seem deeper than it actually is.

Don't know what this is talking about but reminds me of Many Saints hyping up Tony's role and it's really just a poorly done D***ie Moltisanti movie

You got any recommendations?

I see ya Zack Snyder

Crooklyn

Can't think of a funny way to package it but it annoys me how much indie directors shoot everything like Hereditary now, makes me want a return to shaky mumblecore stuff

And the person doing the "deep" s*** has to be some untidy white dude

Bro that s*** was just a waste of time

Tell me more about malicks hygiene
