What about you?

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

I want to see more practical effects, less computer graphics. Less adapted material shoehorned to fit a movie. Less music being used to cue emotional responses.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Less music being used to cue emotional responses.
I read an interesting post years ago on IMDb about the film The Omen and how the music directs the viewer to certain conclusions.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

That sounds like they might have done something interesting with it in that movie. Most of the time it feels like music is a crutch because the scene isn't effective enough or film just isn't expressive enough. There is a chance the audience will react in the wrong way like during all the scenes between Padme and Anakin in Attack of the Clones where everybody laughed instead of awwed. And that was with sappy music in the background but it probably wasn't loud enough.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Well, specifically to horror films, the music plays a huge part in alerting the audience to impending horror situations and it even increases the horror, for example the famous Exorcist 3 scene.

It's quite a powerful medium if used correctly.

People laughing in the wrong place isn't good, but maybe the storyline itself was amusing to the audience. I found it weird that Portman wanted to distance herself from those films.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Those are all good suggestions too.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

It all starts with writing, so people need to express this more. But people need to also show them by NOT just going to see whatever bullshit is out there just because it's "new" when it's usually the same old garbage re-packaged.

More originality. I'd like to see more of us try and find movies out there that are not getting enough attention.

I'd love to see some social satire on modern life. If outside observers were to come and look to see what this generation has wrought, they wouldn't know what the hell happened. "I, Daniel Blake" is probably the only movie that even comes close, but it should go beyond the trivial, and using the colloquial terms of the day. A movie for this time, and for all times.

I'd like to see a controversial movie for once.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Those are all good ideas. I would like to see more controversial movies too.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Thank you. I think your thread ideas help, too. You never know how many producers and studio heads could possibly be reading this, since many are businessmen, but aside from my usual skepticism, they could be movie lovers, too.

I think people who love these kinds of movies have to work a lot more to do. However, when given a chance, I've noticed people really being moved by movies mentioned on here. I see it all the time, but because of the saturation, we need a confederacy!

OMG!
You really cannot get much more naive that that!

The answer is zero.
No fucking way anyone from the industry is checking out these boards.
It is no longer IMDb you fucking moron and they have better things to do anyway.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

You want to see more nudity, like, in general?

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Yes, more nudity in films. There has not been as much nudity in films lately as there used to be.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

OK!

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

I agree, male nudity enhances any feature film.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

I am not interested at all in another Spider-Man or Superman reboot. But it's inevitable.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Add Batman to that list!

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Gives me ideas for our next project.

He looks like Batman but he will be a she and called Ain'tMan.

Or

Instead of a super hero that the audience is expected to see, Batman will instead be the nickname given to the star baseball player.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

So, you want more woke bullshit. Ok, then…

….out of darkness, out of mind, cast down into the Halls of the Blind!

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

Are you LGBTQ? You have a queer sensibility.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

I'm straight, but I'm pro LGBTQ.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

I saw a movie where a Woman was being VERY Bitchy to a man and they didn't end up dating. I thought that was unique… I have seen Multiple movies where a Woman is completely nasty to a man and they end up dating. It was refreshing to see something kind of new. :)

I saw something where a Man and a Woman were just having sex and making out and he wanted a REAL Relationship, where they went out on dates, and he brought her flowers and chocolate and she was the one who wanted to keep just making out and having sex…. It was refreshing to see the man want a REAL Relationship and the Woman basically just wanting booty calls. It's often the other way around…

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

I'd like to see more quality science fiction and less Super Heroes.

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

MORE OF - Practical Effects

LESS OF - CGI

Re: What would you like to see more of and less of in films?

More exploding heads, less obligatory love interests.
