I went to film school in addition to consuming media criticism like a dehydrated man in the desert drinks water, and one of my favorite movies is Crank 2 cause funny guy action go fast. Seems like a skill issue to be.

The difference between film school and these is film school is inundation of media literacy and learning how sausage gets made in a room full of people who want to make sausage, not make YouTube videos saying “you won’t BELIEVE how they make sausage!”

Also it seems more that Cinema Sins obscured the inevitable process of getting older and watching enough that mediocre & formualic ones aren't enaging. Nothing took that but time, familarity and the unavoidable development of taste.

Though it wasn’t “film school”, my education was DEEP into filmmaking, the culture of it, all of that… And I’m also one of the biggest lovers of the worst films ever made because they are SOMEONE’S ART And I never resist a good chance to drop this trailer with a nudge because it’s WONDERFUL

It's my own form of snobbery to be sure but I always go "Hmmm" when an (even otherwise good) critic cant set it aside long enough to go "that part of the Fast and the Furious movie where the rock took a nuclear sub's unexploded missile and directed it at a bunch of other cars was cool"

I would venture to say, at the risk of condescension, that you appreciate crank 2 even deeper than had you not been schooled in film. I had a neighbor quasi sommelier wine pervert who loved a Miller lite every now and then.
