arguably writing is more important

now I'm trying to recall amazing acting in atrocious movie plots

Sounds like you want more *Subverted Expectations* <:smugon:512048583806025739>

You're retarded if you don't understand what I'm saying @Mersenne

@Jokerfaic Westworld

I know it's a show

but

Not really. First you claimed acting was the most important quality, then shifted to writing.

really? never got into that

shame, looked good

For all we know you’ll argue *theme* is most important ffs

but if we're expanding it to TV shows I'm going to include walking dead and supernatural

@Mersenne I said IN PRINCIPLE acting is the most important, but writing is ARGUABLY more important, read the fucking WORDS I chose them for a reason! I was being SPECIFIC

fantastic cast

boring as fuck

Christ, Deliver a compelling argument. Support your point with some kind of justification instead of throwing a tantrum.

They do inform each other, yes.. but the actors are only able to perform what is written and/or permitted by the director. Personally, it's the interplay that I'm interested in & the world that's built there.

That's a matter of differing tastes, however.

“Specific”, sure. Your points clear as mud.

And the "MOST" important is a contextual qualification since alot of different aspects of film making are very important, so it's sort of arbitrary to pick one as the "most" important

I'm just making a point of principle

While accepting the importance of writing as being atleast a close second and MAYBE more important than acting

Does that clear it up for you fucking niggroids?

Hence the lack of context in your autistic screeching responses. Perhaps cite some examples and ground your vague bullshit in evidence and we’ll entertain your tantrums.

@Mersenne You're the one who started attacking me when I didn't even have a proper position

So, for me, the themes are a big deal. If you want to focus on the acting quality- it's your prerogative, but I disagree on the initial pretense.

That said, backing up to speak of writing is fair. E'en then it seems a bit skin deep to me, yet still it is your prerogative to focus on it.

Instead of asking for clarification

Retard

Precisely. I’m attacking you for failing to take a position. Driver a point on film instead of winging like a newborn babe.

Here comes the caps lock

Preemtive attacks are retarded since you're basically hitting smoke

what you should do is ask for clarification

Then you start attacking when there is actually something too attack

nonce

Pointless conflict

And, as you said more to the point, all and all having a specific element as *most* important is small minded as you - yourself- observed. I'll settle for that. @Win Roe

Nice spelling, you’re doing great

Sorry I'm just trying to clear this up fast and explain why you're nigger minded

My fingers aren't so good

More like witnessing someone in the special olympics attempt to play a real sport.

@Laucivol thank you for being reasonable

I think that writing is more impactful than acting, generally; Whereas sort of middling writing can be redeemed by rock-solid acting, even god-like acting turns into shit if the writing is shit.
