I don't know. Tbh I think the vast, vast, vast majority of movies are trash and the way society operates makes it exponentially harder every day to find or watch anything exceptional.
Saddest of all I can't even gatekeep the good movies I've seen lol because I can't even remember the maybe five movies I've watched in my life that were worth my time due to whatever stupid panic or other disorder or mix of disorders that's taken over and held hostage my memory banks.
All that being said perhaps my favourite movie genre may be magical realism or neo-noir. Who knows. It could just be a dark desire to rebell against and rectify my mom's shyness and her and the families destruction under mental weight, my parents divorce and how that and so much more shattered my own life and relationships for all my days thus far.
Whatever. It could also be docs. Love a good skateboard, surf or snowboard, nature or music doc because I'm obsessed and madly passionate about those things.
Third contender is a blend of mystery, comedy and action like 'See How They Run'.
Maybe randomly and illegally to the list of blended genres I include Top Gun: Maverick, and Jurassic Park: World Dominion - we all know any sequel or prequel excluding the original Star Wars (but only because they were made first) are gross. So I'm not sure what happened with these two movies, but it did.
Horrifying to like a sequel.
Actually maybe what happened is I'm just confuses due to the massive amount of flops coming out, the exponential growth of technology masquerading as a stand-in for great writing, engaging dialogue and authentic acting and my own high standards and expectations skewered by personal weakness and shortcomings.
Anyway. That's not going to be solved here and now. Moving on. I'm not a huge anime fan but sometimes they're actually alright too and I'd even consider a top contender. I have good memories of watching DragonBall Z (Of course until that became trash; I still haven't forgiven them for that.) but I refuse to watch the movie or movies in borderline rebellion.
Miyazaki movies are pretty solid though. They're sometimes downright disturbing which I find unnecessary and ngl some look just plain ridiculous. Nausicaa is probs my fave though, with Princess Mononoke and The Boy and the Heron tied for second. I haven't seen all him movies though, and some I'll most likely never see, so it's not a definitive ranking in terms of pure comparison and contrast.
And while my attention span, like many others, has been whittled-down to gnat-like proportions, I WAS able to watch Nimona all the way through today, which is actually free on YouTube right now.

Aaaaand scandal of scandals, I do have a bit of a hot take on movies. The question is, do I expose it here and now...yep...I'm doing it...here we go...
some of the best movies ever made are horror
Wait, wait Wait, allow me to explain before all y'all go full exorcist.
They're like metal music; maybe super loud and intense conceptually, but conversely capable of being just as therapeutic - and when mixed with a great story and the aforementioned writing, acting and dialogue, I don't think anything else can compare in terms of a thrilling cinematic experience that touches the human condition the closest.
Of course I can't prove it due to the aforementioned hostage situation so, moving on before some cinemaBro pops a gasket. Lol
I guess that's about it. "My exposition on movies." If you see Nimona, tell me how it went. Made me cry like a *** baby. Could be because I survived a spontaneous suicide only a few weeks ago and because so many people in my life passed away from that in like the past year.

I looked at your profile picture and my first thought was Elmo looks different. Then I really looked and I saw it. Apologies I do not know his name, but when I was younger that show scared the living daylights out of me. Don't hug me I'm scared, which my friend dared me to watch. I wasn't no chicken so I watched it and that profile just brought back some memories.

It's really not a kids show, but I kind of find it comforting with how unsettling it is.
