Filmmaxxing A GUIDE TO SOCIALMAX THROUGH MOVIES

[eplejuice]

This is my first thread so bear with me. As the title reads this is my guide on how you can use Films to socialize all from Girls favorite movies to some niche u can larp (if thats ur thing) i dont larp btw everything i reccomend is smth i have watched


First why even watch films.

Spoiler

Films are the purest form of art, its where the great cornerstones of art come into play to create a real masterpiece. It combines the great tunes of music, the the origanal piece of art which is paintins, that move now. It also includes the words of a book spoken by actors who could play any role.
Also i love how films are subjective and anything can be a masterpiece in the right eyes, unless its cat in the hat, go watch barry lyndon jfl

TLDR films are art.

Now that i shittily explained the purity and true art of films lets get into the films everybody has seen that you need to see if you want to discuss films with anyone.
POPULAR MOVIES

Spoiler

1. Interstellar
Everyone has seen interstellar and it's everyones favorite movie, not even christopher nolans best movie but let's not get into that.

2. Godfather 1 & 2
Dare i say the peak of gangster/mafia movies, some basic reccomendations if you liked these (everyone likes these) Goodfellas, scarface, city of god.

3. Star Wars & LOTR trilogy
The original star wars trilogy is probably the best sci-fi trilogy ever while LOTR is one of the best trilogies OAT, (The Human condition mogs)

4. Anything spielberg
jaws, jurassic park, indiane jonas, ET and such, everybody knows these.

This is legit just the bare minimum, so many movies i could have included but just watch these, now over to what i personally think is bullshit


WASTE OF TIME

Spoiler

1. MARVEL
Any marvel/Avengers movie is straight dog shit, they produce so much slop and last time i saw one was endgame which isnt even that good. Just pls dont watch this shit, unless u want a marvel foid who never read the comics. (Lwk larp from me i only read DC and Image comics)

2. Pirates of the caribbean
You can watch the first one but just don't watch any of them

3. Basically any huge franchise jfl
They all just make films for the money so not really worth investing time in this slop

"Ok but you said movies to help socialmaxx wheres the movies that help me???"
Heres some chick-flicks that the girls dig

CHICK-FLICKS

Spoiler

1. 10 things i hate about you
It's an alright romcom, so many girls simp over Heath Ledger

2. Mean girls
does this movie just explain how every girl acts...... i think so

3. The virgin suicides

not gonna give anymore as i don't really watch chick-flicks and they're not that good.

Here's some good movies so you actually seem interesting

GOOD & BASIC

Spoiler

1. 2001 a space odyssey
Actually the best sci-fi movie ever, just watch anything Kubrick

2. 12 angry men

[stigmaboy]

@ndgooner then don't larp. just be a normal guy and focus on what you like doing instead of trying to fit some mold

 

[stigmaboy]

@oprysideprofile most people can't socialmax worth shit though. doesn't mean they should just give up and not try.</blockquote>

without giving any spoilers, why should I not watch obsession with a girl I like? Is there some GIGA chad or something? A girl I started talking to wants to go watch together.

it may come off as weird bc the guy likes a girl who doesn’t like him, but he forces her til like him through magic
