I prefer filmmakers who are so good at telling stories, their fans don’t need to spend years inventing extra layers of secret narratives based on production errors/coincidences. “Look, in this shot, the mug is in his other hand. The director was a perfectionist, it can’t be a mistake. Clearly that’s a clue, they’re all aliens.”
I don’t think I mean any of that. Inventing new meanings in movies can be fun, I’m just really sick of people Kubricksplaining.
