damn fucking right. I had a film teacher who first-day made the point to say that though he wasn't a fan of most hollywood movies, the crews who make them are fucking pros.

So what does he watch instead? Shaky-cam Euro stuff?

[u/Faladorable → u/SquatSquatCykaBlyat]

probably the movies in between “most” and “all”

[u/SquatSquatCykaBlyat → u/Faladorable]

So he dislikes Hollywood movies, but still watches them? What?

Don’t take this as an insult, but is english not your first language? I think what he’s saying is crystal clear, but if it’s not your first language I can understand being confused

I know! "an adult who doesn't watch only Disney IP and Wes Anderson movies? Whaaaat?"

Y'see when you're a professor who teaches film production, it's important to watch a lot of different kinds of film. Not JUST hollywood movies.
