I enjoy a well done action flick from time to time

@razzleberryhedgehog I think that while I still use the "popcorn" moniker I consider the actual concept of popcorn media to be a sort of spectrum. A film can still, at its core, be a popcorn flick driven by Stuff Happening, but it can also simultaneously be really smartly written (see: District 9). Lots of action flicks aren't my personal go-to for films I tend to be interested in, but it's undeniable that it still takes incredibly strong filmmaking craft to really effectively create a strong action film.

@northernnarwhal I do believe that a well crafted action film is an art form of its own

@razzleberryhedgehog Definitely, it can be easy to appreciate a great story in film but I think it's also easy to take for granted how difficult it is to construct a great action film.

@northernnarwhal I just can't really say I have a My Type of Film persay, since I generally enjoy any movie that's done well, with few exceptions

@razzleberryhedgehog I too genuinely enjoy any movie I think is well done (if it wasn't implied, I had a ton of fun watching Ghost Protocol) but I'd be lying if I said I didn't have specific stylistic and narrative biases that I tend to lean towards.

@northernnarwhal oh yeah, I understand. I wasn't meaning to imply any sort of disagreement honestly

@razzleberryhedgehog I gotcha. I think the bottom line is we can both really appreciate and enjoy well crafted action films.
