/lit/ - Literature

>film is a visual medium

what even is the point of this statement? it's like saying

>music is an aural medium

you're stating an obvious fact and that is somehow supposed to prove that storytelling has no place in films? a writer has no more of an obligation to ''tell a story'' than a filmmaker has, it just usually helps in either case to have a story of some kind to keep the reader's/viewer's attention.

because most cultural and philosophical analysis is done on shaky grounds, most of it about trying to establish one's self as an authority or seeking status. Heck most of philosophy and sociology is not even trying to seek objective truth, so of course people are going to mad when you misinterpret what they like. Remember in the end empirical skepticism always wins out.
