> Probably a better way to put it is this. If you like Blade Runner AND the MCU, or at least understand why from a mainstream perspective the MCU is a work of art that stands on the same level as blade runner, then I don't despise you.

Lovely.

FWIW, I own _and enjoyed in theater_ all the MCU films, and all the BR releases.

Great. Then you're not the elitist group I'm referring too. I'm basically talking about the difference between MCU style blockbusters and br. The pacing is a huge delta.
Probably hit a nerve here as I think you're one of THOSE elite-st people.
You missed the point. I understand the elitist crowd and where they come from and why they like what they like.
What I am saying is that they are too dismissive of mainstream opinions. There is no logical rule that says just because something is mainstream it sucks and just because something is not mainstream it's great.

The contemplative tone in bladerunner is rarely copied, because the pacing is so slow. If you're talking about superficial aesthetics like the setting. Well I didn't realize you were so mainstream and that razzle & dazzle special effects mattered so much to you. Go watch the MCU for that sort of stuff. Yes those things have been copied to hell, but superficial aesthetics should be the least important thing according to your group think, no?
> - hang out with geeks
I'm the geek of geeks. I'm one level and one dimension above you. You can't comprehend the way I think because you haven't nerded out enough. I actually have a zero sugar diet. Z.E.R.O. Once you hit that level of discipline you reach enlightenment. I don't hang out with geeks, I'm what the geek worships and aspires to be.
