      Not in the way that a professional creator or critic would necessarily see it though, that's my point.

      Only because the standards of professional criticism are homophobic/transphobic, unless you have a counter to that? I think it's fine to just innovate one thing

      No, because professional critics and creators are being made to capitalistically regurgitate these things over and over again to make a living while their superiors and investors tell them to do stuff their hearts aren't in.

      I really don't think that applies at this point to either the Coen Bros or Naughty Dog. Both can get away with almost anything.

      I can almost guarantee you both of them had to do their time replicating humdrum crowd pleasers and almost certainly still get executive pushback.

      Okay on this point you're objectively wrong The Coens' jadedness comes from their lifelong history as movie *viewers*, since childhood They did not have any "phase" of their career where they were doing Michael Bay movies and rebelled against it

      Subversion and deconstruction has always been their brand, since their debut with Blood Simple, and it's popular because they're good at it and those things are popular

      I really dislike authenticity narratives in either direction and I especially hate this narrative that "normies who just like movies don't share any of the aesthetic tastes you people develop from working in the industry"

      It is perfectly possible to get sick of movie cliches simply from watching movies Probably easier in some ways

      I didn't say that, but you should probably not be engaging in the equally irritating performative proclamation of "Well jaded cynicism is REAL and LITERATE not like those stupid sincere vapid folks," then, and we can both avoid irritating each other.

      Well, as many irritating adults say to kids, I've been them and they haven't been me so I think I know more about it I'm not saying it's invalid, it just has a limited shelf life

          I mean, the industry depends on that too If everyone was satisfied by just experiencing the same movie or book or game over and over again, why would they ever need to make more of them

          (For that matter one of the ways to recapture the excitement of coming in fresh to something is to do it vicariously, to watch someone else experience it It's pretty clear that this is why streaming, Let's Plays and reaction videos are so big nowadays)

          I don't think it's any more inherently limited than contravention for its own sake See: everything Tarantino has ever done.

          Tarantino may not be in the mood of cynical deconstruction but he's absolutely the kind of guy who reeks of getting bored easily and needing to shake things up to stay interested That's the whole deal with Pulp Fiction being told out of order or the ending of Inglorious Basterds
