In gross, yes. And maybe it’s footprint isn’t in the volume of annoying ‘fan’ talk but rather in technological development. In that sense it’s impact is huge. Much like Star Wars actually.

Endgame is massive and my dad couldn’t recite a single character. My sister too, and she actually loves those movies. I get that it’s somewhat confusing, no one’s still talking about it. But people are seeing it because it’s a cinematic event. Singular.

Sure, but that’s maybe the BIGGEST movie and most famous movie line of all time. Avatar doesn’t have a shocking twist moment. It’s appeal is in the visuals, much less so than the story.

Not everyone on earth sees a movie and feels the need to discuss esoteric fucking lore. Did you know there are millions and millions of people who don’t post in LOTR or Star Wars subs? It’s true. I go see marvel movies and I never bought a fucking single comic.
People go to the movie. It’s a movie. Then they go home. It doesn’t have to have a massive ‘cultural footprint’. Why is this so hard to understand?

Reply to Nicolas Cage, A Great Actor or A Terrible Actor? by FreshmenMan
Essentially, most every film actor out there is a naturalist. If you look at film actors before, say, James Dean, most actors, if not all, weren’t naturalists, but instead were quite stylized and he’s surrounded by naturalist actors. Now the tables have turned. His style is sort of hyper stylized. Either it works in a film or it doesn’t. Take Raising Arizona, Face Off, or any of his other stylized movies - and he’s AWESOME. Sometimes his style just doesn’t fit the material.
