For some reason I've just never liked Spider-Man. He comes off as a whiney, ignorant child that never seems to grow up or mature despite everything he goes through. I love a good coming of age story, but he just never seems to become an adult.

Yeah it's just such a simple and easy topic. Studios funnel all their money and focus into a genre that requires no creativity.

After Iron Man 2008, sure it was neat for a few years to see a "connected universe" but it's a bit of a joke now....

That's what makes me the most excited for auteurs like Francis Ford Coppola or Lynch or Aronofsky or Tarkovsky - I watch movies to be immersed and feel something, and blam-blam-boom-booms have just never done it for me.

I prefer film-as-art over film-as-entertainment I guess?

The word is pretentious. Both types are great, but ivory tower types who name drop basic Artisic™ directors like they just took their first film class I find to be more irritating than people who just want to have fun.

Be more Ebert, less RT Meter.

Wow, you must have lots of friends and be fun at parties, dick 😂🤣😂

Pretty much yeah! Imagine that, someone who thinks you're a try-hard poser actually has a rich life and is usually the host of many parties filled with authentic people who would gladly mock, openly, the thoroughly asinine dog shit you said above. Maybe nicer though.
