i dont necessarily dislike the opinion that movies should be more about imagery texture and emotion than dialogue bc the visuals and sound are what make them unique as a medium + visual storytelling takes advantage of film’s particular characteristics like I can see where they’re coming from. but personally I like movies that are basically just dialogue I want to hear people screaming and yelling at each other + funny jokes also. but idk I really love visuals so I think its mostly bc of my personal failure to get immersed in a movie like feel like I’m inside it yk. and low attention span 😔🙏 sorry denis

#the exception is animation esp hand drawn #if I wanted to witness the beauty of the natural world I’d go outside and experience life #its nice don’t get me wrong like I really enjoy it but it doesn’t carry a movie for me yk #unless it’s a bunch of really good drawings in which case it does <3 #i will say that outside of personal taste I think movies can be very vague abr character motivation if theyre especially minimal #wrt dialogue #which makes it harder to get engaged in the sublime emotions of the story if you ask me #nothing wrong with primarily visual storytelling as long as you give your audience an in yk #^ofc emotional impact isn’t always the goal !! obviously the best approach depends on what a movie is trying to achieve #and dialogue vs visuals is a fake dichotomy I’m talking abt basically just for the sake of this post lol #long winded way of admitting I didn’t get dune 😔 I liked blade runner 2049 though
