i’m so sick of writers who proudly proclaim that they don’t read and directors and actors and other filmmakers who smugly say that they rarely watch movies or any artist who acts like an audience is stupid for connecting with their work like what the fuck is wrong with you that you hold such contempt such derision for the art that you have chosen to make the art that so many people dream of the opportunity to make the art that brings meaning and connection to people’s lives it’s unbelievably disrespectful to both your audience and the art-form and if you can’t muster basic respect for either your art-form or your audience then kindly fuck off and do something else

Id be fucking ecstatic
I make art to not just express myself but to share with others.
I make art to make people feel

#i hate how rare it is to have an actor be like ‘yeah i just really love movies and going to the movies it’s the best i love what i do’#to the point where when an actor or director IS like that people are like ‘wow what a freak…they’re faking it for attention’ like!! no!!#that’s what it’s SUPPOSED TO BE LIKE!! you WANT creators who are obsessed with their medium!!!#and what gets me about the people who don’t feel that way is the clear Pride they feel like they’re Better for not caring#that uk ya author adapting the odyssey and admitting that they’ve never read the odyssey or the iliad#that writer on twitter saying that telling writers to read is ableist#the russo brothers saying that the theatrical experience is elitist and auteurism should bow to the disney/netflix model#christain bale and any number of other actors who proudly announce that they don’t watch movies#sam levinson who talks about tv like it’s a long movie because he can’t hack it as a filmmaker like his dad but he doesn’t actually LIKE tv#like i get not wanting to consume your own work after it’s released unless it’s for research or self reflection purposes#but you do not exist or create in a vacuum and it’s SO disrespectful and arrogant to act like you do

Listen, I get directing and acting are jobs and sometimes you just take a job. But, your not above it if you're doing it and good storytelling understands and continues from what came before. Again I don't think you necessarily have to be a "fan" Kenneth Branagh wasn't some huge Mighty Thor comic fan. But he didn't act all smug about it he just took the material and respected the characters and told the best story he could. Hey, if you're doing a marvel movie you're not better than Marvel, get over yourself and try.
