Will people in academia ever dissect cinema as finely as they do literature?
Some do already. They should more often since it's a superior medium that incorporates both literary and visual aspects
>>64013354
People already do, but they tend to be dipshit film school retards
It will be a couple of hundred years until cinema is appreciated in the same manner as literature and fine art
>>64013354
Yeah, they'll make sure to point out all the privileged shitlords in your movies OP.

Why would you want filthy critic faggots tainting a perfect medium like literature?
>>64013650
No one said you're SJWs
But you are try hard, pretentious, no fun autists
>>64014389
Nice argument
Sure literature probably has more stimulating and provoking pieces than film, but film is inherently better and has produced a large share of grand artworks despite its relative infancy
But you're just a little failed genius autist stuck at a state school who will reply with ebin reddit maymays :(
Yes. They already do. That is why most liberal arts schools now have film programs.
lit is a boring board
just a sfw /r9k/ with a book theme and no decent memes.

terrible posts
They already do, Google 'Stanford philosophy of film'. People like Stanley Cavell and Walter Benjamin have been dissecting film for decades.

What is The Dark Knight Rises (Nolan 2012).
>>64013457
Try reading Blood Meridian m80, see how well a movie can adapt that.
What's the most un-novelizable movie in existence?
>>64013354
>finely as they do in literature
HURR WHAT THE AUTHOR INTENDED WHILE CREATING THIS OPERA DOESN'T MATTER! WHAT MATTERS IS WHAT I SEE IN IT!
THIS CRAFTED MEDIA THAT WAS MADE WITH AN INTENT IN MIND IS NOT IMPORTANT!
I really hope not.

Anything told through cinematic language as opposed to clear narrative or dialogue. Lynch and Malick come to mind.
