>most interesting scene from the middle of the movie is randomly put into the start to get the attention of the zoomer audienceI don't care if you consider it necessary, it's still terrible film making and everyone doing it should be slowly tortured to death in the most painful fashion.
>>220474637>most interesting scenes from the movie are put into the trailer to get the attention of the audience>The rest of the movie is just a bunch of nothing.
>>220474637Kurt Vonnegut recommends starting your story as close to the end as possible
>>220474713Kurt Vonnegut is a faggot who wrote terrible redditslop.
I reall, REALLY hate movies that begin with the climactic scene and go *record scratch* freeze frame I BET YOU'RE WONDERING HOW I GOT INTO THIS SITUATION? It is so incredibly lazy and just shows you that the writers had no fucking clue how to open their movie. The only film in history that did this trope and did it well is Sunset Blvd
>>220474730I hate it even more when it's just a random scene that could be surprising in the middle of the movie but is largely irrelevant to the story. It just screams "yeah this is shit, do we have a scene that could seem interesting".Examples:>white tiger>bikeriders>queens gambit
New York Times reports, ‘we have painstakingly analyzed all of the great works of history and have finally found the ultimate story starter technique, going as far back as ancient Babylon’ shuffle of papers ‘this powerful technique, is to make a bunch of false authority statements to beat attention into their skulls using any name, institution, promise, or lie necessary. Like the master showmen, the ringleaders. ‘Step right up! It’s the greatest show on earth! You dont want to be anywhere else in the world right now!’ Based on a true story.
With linear television you often started in the middle of a movie anyway. Directors didn't feel like they have to point at a certain scene to make sure the owner company makes it's next quarterly earnings. We really need to fix all this short attention span, doomscrolling dystopia
>>220474637Well you see you have to show people what’s going on the first time, so when it happens the second time, they know its important. So you start your movie with Trinity jumping around killing cops and fighting supernatural agents, doing the phone jack. Then we go back to Neo, now when we see Trinity’s name, its really important not just some new random username. We have been made priivy to the phone, we better know something or someone is inside the computer. Later we see agents and as audience members are even more scared of them than neo because we have privileged information about their strange powersFood for thought
>>220475060You're talking about a completely different thing.
>>220475144You can do cheaper forms of this by cutting middle scenes in earlier. It is a pretty scummy technique but most of these movies are bad enough they would be totally boring without it
