the first 6 images are screenshots of tiktoks showing people looking shocked at the camera with text on top about "filmbros when...". they are as follows:
“film bros when u tell them u want to watch a marvel movie and not a 2 hour black and white movie about the serbian government shown through the eyes of a pigeon”
“film bros when you say you like a movie because you actually enjoy it and not because it has 48291 layers of hidden meaning”
“film bros when u tell them ur fav film is flushed away and not some crusty 3 hour long film abt (about) someone dancing in a restaurant then sh00ting (shooting) ppl (people)”
“film bros when you say ur (your) fav movie is paddington 2 and not some six hour long russian war film from 1932 with graphic imagery and no plot or dialogue”
“pretentious film bros when someone says they would rather watch a comedy than a 15 hour black and white polish film that critiques capitalism”
“Film Bros when you tell them you want to watch marvel instead of people drinking sangria with ac!d (acid) in it and have a full on psychosis”
(note: most of them appear to be white women)
the second image is a tweet thread from Konata von Bingen (@/camelllll31) reading as follows:
“it's fine to like fun silly movies, but to totally disengage with media that makes you uncomfortable shows a decline in media literacy and understanding o fart. art is MEANT to make you feel, it's supposed to challenge our felings, and make you think. it's not just escapism.
the fact that they also use military propaganda films like those in the MCU in contrast to more "artsy" films shows how i've aren't able to analyze the media we consume. we're falling for the messaging of consumerist culture and capitalism. capitalism is anti-art.”
the final image is of the second tiktok screenshot "film bros when you say you like a movie because you actually enjoy it and not because it has 48291 layers of hidden meaning".
