Ok, first off the spelling of "poseur" has changed over the past 30 years. Any student of language could tell you that. Linguistics, motherfucker!!! Not only that, but even if I had spelled it wrong, trying to insult a person on a message board because they spelled something wrong is really weak. Obviously I could have pointed out several grammatical errors in your post, but I'm an adult and feel like I'm past that. What movie is it "POSING" off of??? I thought I made it clear that I felt like Donnie Darko was
"POSING" as a thought-provoking, important piece of art. At least, that's what it was passed on to me as.

The part about how I should make a movie and then I could talk shit: let me get this straight. What you are basically saying is, "Unless you have made ONE movie yourself, you cannot say that you DON'T LIKE any one movie." Did I get that right? Because if I did, THAT MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO GODDAM SENSE. You know it doesn't. Search in your heart for the truth and you will find it is there. The critical mind is something that many people possess: political analysts, social activists, literary scholars, art critics, etc. It is the ability to point out what is wrong, but then not have any real, tangible solutions for how to fix it... or in this case, make a better movie. If you really do feel this way, you shouldn't be on a message board that is based on how people view different expressions of the horror genre.
i said goddamn nashville! calm down man. its cool that your backing up your opinions- thats more than half the people on here do. most would just be like "that movie was stupid b/c its stupid". So we disagree. Who cares? The point about making a film i was trying to make is that making a film that is original, thought provoking, and emotionally stirring is no easy task. thats all man.
I hate artsy people.
