You can get really caremad about a lot of stupid poo poo on planet Earth. Sometimes it is limiting to do so. Many films rely on twists and turns in their plot to entice audiences and keep them guessing. This isn't that difficult to understand, even for a dullard like you.

Terrorist Fistbump posted:I'm not saying narrative tricks are bad or cheap thrills or whatever, but the number of films that are just a rollercoaster ride of plot twists is very small. Most films that employ big twists have a lot of other things going for them, e.g. good cinematography or well-developed characters, that have value once the impact of seeing them for the first time has worn off. In this sense, it's hard to say a film "relies" on twists and turns to make it worth seeing -- they're one element in a list of good stuff. Obviously one can appreciate twists in a film as well as good cinematography and well-developed characters. Movies are stories and knowing plot details and the outcome beforehand undercuts the tension.
