I just don't understand why he couldn't be a bit nicer
It's just who he is. An insufferable bastard who can take you to greatness if you can pay the mental toll
It was just jazz
>>218623506He was a producer. Couldn't become a great, himself, and that's fine, many people cannot become great. But he knows he had the knowledge and ability to produce a great. Problem is he was getting old and was feeling the pressure.
>>218623652If making "a great" had some definite scientific method to it there would be no value in the titleYou can train kids to be really good at chess, but you can't make them into bobby fischer
>>218623880Say that to the Polgár girls.
>>218623880I didn't say there was a scientific method to it.
It was not quite his tempo tbph
>>218624035You were rationalizing the actions of a man whose actions were inherently completely irrational
He didn't even hurt them those chairs all missed
>>218623506dogshit filmnever going to watch it
>>218624428wait how do you know its dogshit
>>218623961I was going to make some snide remarks about the bar for women being lower but I stand owned
>>218623506He burned himself out trying be a perfectionist and never got good. He takes it out on his students. The man is a failure.
>>218624561IIRC one of them dropped chess to pursue a normal life, otherwise it would say both sisters are elite tier. They aren't as good as someone such as Carlsen or any of those high ranking dudes, but they are still quite respectable players.
>>218623506Because music is srs bznz now gtfo kthxbai
>>218623506I couldn’t understand why the kid was a worthless cocksucker that refused to work hard to be the best
>>218624714It does seem like even within that experiment Judit was quite gifted from a much earlier age than the others, but to attribute a case so clear cut to luck would be silly
>>218624870He got in a car crash and still made it for the show what the hell man
It's just an ego thing. Intimidating people makes him feel like a big man.
being nice never got anyone anywhere IRL
>>218624329Everything has a rationale, including the irrational. I didn't say baldsville was right, I said it like it is because it is what it is. He was not great, but he had the know-how to produce one. He was getting older and still hadn't, so his methods became desperate and abusive.
>>218623880There is such a method but it requires time and one-on-one mentoring. We have fewer greats now because we prioritized mass education. So good teachers are spread thin across 20 - 30 students, most of whom don't deserve their efforts.
>>218623506A lot of men don't respond to niceness, if you are nice to them then they get comfortable, don't see the need to improve themselves any more.
>>218623506Did you guys even watch the movie. He is "nice" for multiple scenes like when he's playing in a small band at a cafe or something.
>>218625010Rich kids still have private tutors, retard
>>218624931yeah, in intellectual stuff it's obviously that women just aren't into it by default. It's not like women not being NFL linebackers or sumo wrestliers. It's not physiologically absurd, it's statistical.
Of course you don't. That's why you're a nobody.
>>218624947And then he played like shit, got mad when he was called out, and embarrassed the entire band when he threw a tantrum. If he had just not been a collosal fuckup, it would have been fine.
