What a strawman. A tight script is a foundational piece of a good movie

Film bros somehow understand film less than the people who watch 3 movies a year and whose favorite movie of all time is Deadpool & Wolverine

A movie can inspire a fire in your spirit (whatever that means) and also have a coherent plot that makes sense.

how about you try making an argument for yourself? and we never said the story has to make sense alone, but that’s what you need as a solid foundation if you want to communicate ur themes effectively. which i proved in my video

He’s not saying your favorite movie has to be the movie to make the most sense.

plot isn’t important. My favorite movies are Hausu and Inland Empire. Those movies have a plot. It’s just not the main draw

Very unnuanced and reductive debate. The answer is (as it almost always is with art): “it depends”. Plot can be vital to some movies and not that important to others same with visuals and editing. Some movies have mediocre visuals and pacing but still end up being great. Just a nothing burger argument

Plot *IS* important but it's also so fucking basic. Saying plot is the most important thing in a movie is like saying the most important thing you look for in a person you date is a skeleton. Like yeah, definitely gotta have one of those. What else?

Was this supposed to be a gatcha moment ; because didn’t someone use a similar argument on the backrooms director and was proven wrong.

It’s like saying the most important part of a song is the lyrics. The body is more important than the soul.

Most of the films that light fires in people are the ones that make sense from a story perspective. If they make no sense then there is either a very surface level excitement which I would not consider “lighting a fire” like you would see in action moments, or nostalgia. A strong plot that the audience can follow will make infinitely more impact on them than the hope that the same set of colors, compositions, shots, and cinematography will hopefully evoke a feeling by itself

Very sad that people think the plot is the foundation of a good movie. I would be devastated if I never again watched a movie that made me go "I have no fucking clue what happened but I loved every moment"

either people know NL on this thread and are saying straw man for the bit, or they don't know and are playing into the bit. either way my king doesn't miss.
