Besides Starship Troopers, what movies fit this characteristic?

Flip the line upside down and you've got Blade Runner 2049

Horror as a genre.

The Last Jedi.

this along with a lot of silly comedies. You could probably add some Monty Python to the list.

Dune (1984)

Because he understands scale and how to make the scope of things in front of the camera grander and more impactful than they actually are. The way he uses and knows when to use motion of objects in the background, wide shots, and close ups creates great tension, action, and shots you remember long after seeing it. More Bad Boyz and the Rock than anything, but still can be seen in Transformers.

I wouldn't say its about his relationship with his mother, but about lacking self-actualization and succumbing to women's wims.

you have been btfo by your own nature. Your inability to look critically at the masterstrokes of Bay shows you up for what you are. A petulant know-it-all who doesn't understand anything outside of his sphere. If you want to educate yourself, watch Armageddon and then Deep Impact and then every 90s disaster movie. Then work out why Armageddon was the smash hit that the others weren't.

Also, even if you lack the ability to appreciate his type of art (because that is what it is), you can still ask yourself - if any idiot can make a "Michael Bay film", why can't anybody make as much money as Michael Bay when they try to make a Michael Bay film? why is Michael Bay more successful than the rest? also go fuck yourself because you sound like a bellend lmao

Sneedposting

I would argue that his relationship with his mother is WHY he lacks self-actualization like you're saying. He's largely the cause of all of his problems. He kind of hates women, really, or at the very least has a huge level of resentment towards the opposite sex and that's why his relationships are the way they are and why he bails whenever they start to get serious. There's a lot of subtle and not-so-subtle references to Communism and "no I, only we" mentalities in the movie too, so I think his mother domineered over him in a way that compromised his sense of individuality and now whenever he starts to get that feeling in a relationship with a woman he starts to act out and, in many ways, behave like another person.

There's a small bump early on for the red alert players who got hyped because they mentioned tesla coils in the movie.

right = high iq
top = high enjoyment
bottom = low enjoyment.

The graph shows that when IQ is low, enjoyment is high.
Then as IQ increases enjoyment drops.
Only for enjoyment to again rise as IQ increases much more.

So OP is asking what movie is loved by dumb and smart people, but not by those inbetween.

what is strange to me is that Robocop was so successful with general audiences while Starship Troopers wasn't, even though they both are similar in this regard. They have action and excess for the dimwits and clever social commentary and satire for the smart people. They didn't even come out that far apart, so what happened? Why, HOW could Starship Troopers not do well?

Prometheus is this:
perhaps the best example so far.

Coen brothers

I don't think "no u" is the right response considering the accusations in our arguments lol. you probably wont understand what i mean by that.

I think what Starship Troopers was satirical about was more sensitive than what Robocp was satirical about, which could turn off viewers and reviewers.
Maybe during that time aliens were seen as more childish than robots, which influenced audiences.
Not sure.

I dunno. Robocop was satirical about some pretty sensitive topics at the time, like nuclear war. Perhaps the problem with Starship Troopers was that it wasn't current or topical ENOUGH? It was largely a satire of 50's Americana which had a resurgence in the 80's and was already gone by the time it came out in 1997.

That's not true because mid-IQ people hate it so they can make simple "why didn't she run to the side" type criticisms.

Anyone who mentions goes on about "plotholes" when criticizing movies is most definitely somewhere in the middle of the curve.

Matrix, I mean all of them

Michael Bay is friends with powerful Jews. That's all. General audiences have no taste, everyone knows that.

caring about IQ on a neo-vietcongonese board about sushi and sushi accessories

this so much mooooods please downvote them

You are crying because you absolutely positively refuse to shut up. You didn't get the movie because you are too dumb, that's all there is to it.

There's a difference between valuing good acting and an inability to appreciate an otherwise honest film because of it. Tokyo Drift doesn't attempt to get Oscar nominations. It tries to explore subcultures and ghetto politics all while being a love letter to racing. It's the truest Fast and the Furious has ever be with itself, and arguably the best film about racing ever made.

Plotholes vary in terms of how much they matter depending on the film and especially the type of film in question. So it really depends on what movie the person is complaining about plotholes in.

>honest film
Oh no. Are you one of those weirdos who likes Armond White's nonsense? That would make sense since you're defending a movie that no one would ever bother to defend.

Yeah of course. I simply stated that i thought the movie was about women trapping jake etc. and then you came at me saying it was about his mother. But i already knew his mother was one of the spider and even stated that she was probably the big spider stomping around the city. I kinda gave up on the argument when you said it was ALL about jakes mom (which it clearly isnt). that's the recap as i see it.

I should add that "big spider stomping around jakes city" i interpreted as that spider's representative stomping around in jakes thoughts. I'm typing with my arms around a laptop right now so it's hard.

sorry champ. just because something has a large influence on the main protagonist doesnt mean the whole movie is "about mom". A MUCH MUCH more accurate way to state your already dumbed down estemation of "what the movie is about" is that the movie is about jake's reactions to the women in his life and how it affects his desires, needs for security, desires for adventure/independence, identity etc. it's just a young mans "coming into old age" story with spiders and red herrings to trick the viewer into thinkikng it's deep.
