i know that

i was referring more to the communal attitude i've been perceiving, particularly among those i follow and those who follow me

i'm well aware there are exceptions to my generalizations, that's what makes them generalizations https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254266686405898240
i'm sorry i didn't realize every last twitter account who might stumble upon my thread needed "except you, [insert name here]" spoonfed for them

how silly of me https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254266687857127428
never said "can't." just said "usually don't."

the biggest hit movies tend to be the biggest hit movies because EVERYONE goes to see them including poor people

that did not seem like a controversial statement to me https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254267761762562048
ok but that's a different discussion

as it is, the kinds of films that ARE connecting with people en masse are films like avengers endgame

again i didn't think i had to spell out the highest grossing movie in every conceivable alternate universe https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254267763780026368
and no one is saying you have to god you're needlessly angry https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254268521690755072
again, never said it should or even can be. just that i'm fuckin tired of narrowminded thinking in the opposite direction as well, especially towards marvel movies

this weird mentality of "if everyone likes thing that means it must suck" https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254269869681307648
aren't the next like three marvel movies all directed by women? https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254270183994036225
scorsese more than earned the right to be wrong, I was mostly annoyed by all the filmbros parroting his old man arguments

why do you have all this anger towards my meaningless-ass thread? https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254271732350775298
you seem fun https://twitter.com/guxpito/status/1254268486110625792
you remind me of everyone in college who annoyed the living piss outta me https://twitter.com/guxpito/status/1254269758041661440
hey you're the one who found my thread and decided to rage at it but please do continue to go all the way off https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254270407890202624
see, you're THIS close to reaching my point

how many people honestly "shared the spectacle with a room of like-minded people" when they watched the irishman?

a movie everyone could watch on netflix at home for the cost of their monthly membership? https://twitter.com/notthemarsh/status/1254272410410500097
see above tweet, i hope that clarifies things for you https://twitter.com/dunjunhexplorer/status/1254277871159390208
only a true cinephile has no patience for a three hour movie https://twitter.com/phiblue_/status/1254277132378796034
coward https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254313287031771136
again you're the one who saw fit to express so much unlimited soup, salad and butthurt at MY meaningless thread but i guess it doesn't count when you do it https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254310841261817861
god forbid anyone publicly disagree with a white man so old even the boomers look up to him https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254311418385403905
again

i didn't respond to your thread until after you randomly responded to mine

so the more pertinent question we're going to need an answer to first here is, why are YOU so mad that people like the movies anyway?

i'll wait https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254312351072833536
again, i think objectively the more oversensitive party here is whichever one is first to angrily quote-tweet the other

and that would be (checks notes) you and your friends https://twitter.com/AuraHime/status/1254313508247793664
if y'all "critiqued business practices and movies" on your own feeds WITHOUT tryin' to "call out" total strangers, we wouldn't be having a problem right now, now would we? https://twitter.com/AuraHime/status/1254313508247793664
except you kind of are

when you quote-tweet a total stranger's thread to belittle them, and do so completely unprompted, in essence you are diminishing their perspectives needlessly, and shaming them for thinking different from you

so maybe just don't https://twitter.com/dabi_hawks/status/1254314205471105025
To be 100% fair, I THINK (could be wrong), beneath their bluster, the core of their point is "it DOESN'T MATTER how good these products are, if they're made by evil corporations you still shouldn't support them." https://twitter.com/DigiRanma/status/1254317596209491968
And that is honestly a valid perspective to have, even though personally I don't quite agree with it.

What's NOT so valid is harassing random strangers who happen to disagree about it, in rude-ass "callout threads" unprompted. That's just bullying. https://twitter.com/DigiRanma/status/1254317596209491968
Very sorry to hear that. Like I said, I'm well aware there are exceptions to my generalizations, that's what makes them generalizations. https://twitter.com/GayScottSummers/status/1254270596944281600
