"Film art, like any other art...""Viscerally it MUST engage you, pure and simple."
"The bottom line is the result."
These are quite simple-minded generalizations. What does the third one mean, if anything? You imply the only legitimate result is for a film to be immediately and completely comprehensible on a purely visceral level...even if there are other vague ideas hoving in the vicinity. You reduce thousands of years of varied creative work to a few astonisingly thin principles.
Your post is essentially an ad hominem attack asserting that "most posters" simply regurgitate ideas they get from others. This rejects what they say without having to engage it in any substantive way.
I suppose your "evidence" comes down to the fact that they don't agree with you; the only available explanation for such a horrifying fact is that the ideas they put forth aren't their ideas at all.
Weird post!
