Feologild Oakes It's not just movies that get overthought. Some viewers even get into TV shows so deeply that they get obsessive about the characters and go nuts psychoanalyzing their motives and personality quirks. Kinda scary. Especially if it's a comedy show that they are going on about. Keeps them off of the streets at night though, I suppose !  True i have never understood that either. |

It's just a symptom of loneliness. As are most emotional attachments and obsessions.

thinking about why the plot is defective? no
thinking about symbolic resonance? yes
analyzing racial and gender implications? yes
thinking about technicals, camerawork, framing, lighting? we need more of that

Yes. Especially when many movies are meant to be rather shallow. There are a lot of "popcorn flicks" out there. I completely agree. Yes, There are many movies, especially older films, that are just meant to entertain people for a couple of hours to take their minds off their troubles, and you see many people today constantly picking them apart looking for hidden meanings. Some people even come up with new theories that try to explain endings that were just meant to provide some movie magic, fun, and a laugh... Like the movie: GREASE (1978). People now claim the flying car at the end, was Danny & Sandy going to heaven. No one thought that back in 1978. |
