Ang lungkot ng may hilig kang niche hobby and wala kang mapagkuwentuhan sa circle of friends mo. I love light novels (and I binged all released volumes of Bottom-Tier Character Tomozaki-kun in less than three days) but ny friends only love manga, manhwa, and anime. Well, I know that not everyone is into reading walls of text and I don’t resent them for that but wala lang, malungkot lang HAHAHA wala akong ma-impart-an ng saya or reactions ko sa nabasa ko (which, in the case of Tomozaki-kun, includes changing my ship)

I can discuss films from 70s to present time, at wala akong mapagkwentuhan. Nowadays, audiences, both theaters and at home, just consume content.

When I open discussions they’re just simply slap me with “Napanood ko na yan. Maganda naman, walakumpake sa story” card. Parang nasa The Truman Show ending lang, eh.

Napanood ko na yan. Maganda naman, walakumpake sa story

Gosh, how can they find a movie good kung wala silang pake sa story? Shouldn’t a good movie make you care to the story, character etc.?

Yung pamangkin kong 15yo, hindi nagustuhan yung Nocebo kasi daw natalo yung bida. 🤪 I guess, dapat manalo yung bida para sa ibang tao para masabi na maganda yung pelikula. And I guess he cared for the wrong character. Nag explain ako ng todo about the movie. Hopefully napickup nya.

Same energy sa mga nagsasabi na “Di daw maganda na horror movie kasi konti lang yung jumpscare or not gory enough” on any good movie that doesn’t rely too much on those things hahaha.

Buti ka pa you had the patience to explain, I wouldn’t hahaha.

I tend to watch horror pictures, not to scare myself. Most jump scares in films are too annoying. Talk To Me and Evil Dead Rise are recent horror pictures I watched in theaters and genuinely creep me throughout.

I preferred slow-burn, anxiety-inducing horror films. Minsan kasi parang ang cheap ng pelikula na nag rerely lang sa jumpscares amd gory scenes. I still enjoy jumpscare scenes naman.

genre films can be tiresome

Yeah, I kinda stopped watching horror for a while mainly because I live alone hahaha. I watch more comedies nowadays, specifically screwball comedies like His Girl Friday and most Cary Grant movies.

slow-burn

Matic boring agad yan sa mainstream, haha.

anxiety-inducing

Psychological horror films are underrated af. Chris Nolan, for the first time, attempted this with Oppenheimer, and damn… >!the entire third act!<
