So, I'm supposed to consider your feelings? Or know your knowledge?
Do you have a concept of etymology, environment and demographics?
I'm a film person. I hang out with people that study metaphysics, polymaths and artistic ways to explore these subjects.
A lot of people wouldn't know what a 2-3 zone is or a pick & roll, either. Does it make you a prick if you mention these things in their presence?
Enough.
So anyone who uses a term you don't understand, is a prick?
Even as you learn something from me, you deride me.
What the **** ever, man. It's simply an inferiority complex, at some point. Yet we also have people pumping their chests about that selfsame factor.
I thought it worked much better than the first, which kind of makes the first work for me: it's the sense of a meta-analysis of filmmaking and the history these films -- as design and tech -- are approaching. As the programming becomes more complex, so do the themes, their exploration visually and aurally, as well as the tonal value becoming more acute and striking.
It was a great mood movie. And I liked the way it bookended itself, showing the father sacrificing himself for the son, so the child could finally become a man. Tied off with the visual metaphors of getting the girl and riding off while the sun(!) rises.
That's a simplistic evaluation that doesn't really deal with some of its more intriguing ideas as far as godhood, religion and more general or specific metaphysics.
