Not really that much of le gamer any more so if it keeps me entertained for longer than a couple weeks then I've got my money's worth.
Movies are another story because I enjoy them for a variety of different reasons. I enjoy meticulously crafted films just as I enjoy movies designed for pure entertainment purposes if done with a modicum of thought put behind them. A lot of people seem to put themes above enjoyment value but if the movie is just becomes one giant pedestal for the director's opinions then the actual film making takes a backseat and detracts from the overall experience. To me, a good film knows when to equipoise it's material with entertainment value.
do you have a favorite director was it scorsese

If you know all the parts of something intimately, you can't love it.
This is the opposite of the truth.
The more intimately I know every detail of any work of art that I enjoy, I just love it even more.
You are autistic.
That's not a slight.
You're actually autistic.
i'm not, though, so i guess you lose enjoy being unable to appreciate art

And the specific thing that makes an experience work shouldn't be defined, because part of the appreciation is just knowing, internally, that something speaks to you.
Finding it's mouth degrades that feeling.
Maybe for you. I guess I'm just smart enough to not allow that to happen.
There's a reason an artist can never appreciate their own work.
That has nothing to do with anything.

I would rather watch an interesting character do something boring, than a boring character do something interesting
They're about equal for me.

This is a fucking stupid thread.
You should appreciate things as a whole.
And you're both retards if you think that having a list of priorities means that you can't appreciate the whole.
Media is not the sum of its parts, and just because a piece checks all the boxes you want checked doesn't mean its what you were looking for.
So no, when you look for things certain things in soomething, you're not experiencing something, you're just dissecting it.
And that is the correct way to analyze and appreciate art.
It's an atrocity against art.
Poets have waged war against such practices for decades.
And radical Muslims have waged war against Western values for decades. What is your point.

Be as specific as you want.
When it comes to games:
Gameplay > Characters (if it's a fighting game) > A sense of "soul," or an appreciation for "the little things"
[POWER GAP]
Themes, ideas, & messages > Overall design > Originality > Style, aesthetic, & atmosphere > Price
[POWER GAP]
Challenge > Heuristic gameplay (no hand-holding tutorials) > Music > Story > How female characters are portrayed
[POWER GAP]
Genre > Characters (non-fighting games) > Replay value > Controls > Lore > Animation > Acting
[POWER GAP]
For bad games, a capacity to be enjoyable despite being a bad game
[POWER GAP]
Setting/world = Customization = Graphics = Frame rate = Boring technical aspects = Historical accuracy = Premise
For movies:
Themes, ideas, messages > Symbolism > Imagery & cinematography > A sense of "soul," attention to detail
[POWER GAP]
Editing > Rewatchability > Usage of tropes & cliches
[POWER GAP]
Characters > Story > Score > Acting > Setting/world > Genre > Historical accuracy > Premise
[POWER GAP]
A capacity for bad movies to be so-bad-it's-good

one of those movies i wish i saw as a kid, but i'm too jaded to watch now
You never saw Iron Giant? Damn no wonder you're so depressed.
from what i hear, it's apparently a depressing movie
Maybe if you're the kind of person to turn the movie off like 5 minutes before the credits even start for literaly no reason, then sure.
just telling you what i've heard
from several people
every person i've talked about the movie with, in fact
It's not depressing, really. Sad at times, yes, but that's why it stands out from most children's films; there's actual emotional storytelling. In fact, I think that's exactly how I would describe the film. It has sad aspects, yes, but that doesn't make the film depressing. It just makes it emotional and genuine.
Besides, you of all people shouldn't be averse to watching a movie because it has some sad parts. Isn't one of your favorite films Requiem for A Dream?
i'm not saying i'm averse to the movie because it's sad it just doesn't look interesting the premise doesn't grab me, even though it would've as a kid
