      It's the inverse Goldilocks principle - "I want my shit to be TOO SMART or TOO DUMB for the normies Anything the normies think is just right, is bad" I think this is literally true, I think this particular kind of Film Twitter snob thinks "just right" calibration is inauthentichttps://twitter.com/DkLatta/status/1366389883380649986 …

      Good thread and the value of what I sort of think of as the "Baby Bear" school of art. (Or is it Mama Bear? I never remember how that story goes lol) https://twitter.com/arthur_affect/status/1366245209911136257 …

      I.e. when you're making anything mainstream like a Marvel movie this is part of your thought process "I want it to have my personal stamp, I want it to seem artistic and get good reviews from critics, but I don't want it to be TOO weird that Aunt Joan from Peoria gets confused"

      So you get a really cool idea while writing or you go down a rabbit hole of raw emotion or you discover something weird that clicks And then you focus group it You go around and ask people "Okay is this TOO weird and TOO different from a normal movie" And you dial it back

      THIS IS GOOD FILMMAKING THIS IS A NECESSARY PART OF THE PROCESS BECAUSE ART IS COMMUNICATION AND A COMMUNICATION THAT IS NOT RECEIVED BY THE AUDIENCE IS OBJECTIVELY A FAILURE But oh man oh man oh man do Film Twitter hipsters DESPISE this

      Clerks is a good example of a work that was improved by this process. The original ending where Dante gets shot and killed by a robber just did not work artistically and would have alienated audiences. I think Kevin Smith would not have the career he has if not for that change.

      Well, it would've made Clerks 2 much more difficult to write
