So does hyping and pre-ranking ruin our experiences and expectations? I try to ignore that hype of others, especially the hype of my friends because it hardly ever lives up to it. If I hype something up and it fails, it can only be my fault. Similarly when I get really bored, I pre-rank and pre-compare, thinking how it will rank amongst the existing works of a certain director and which films it will be closest to (for reference: Inherent Vice will be near PDL, Interstellar will be near Inception, Gone Girl will be somwhere near TGWTDT and Zodiac. And often there's nothing substantiate this except hype (but in the case of Inherent Vice, I end up mostly thinking of Punch Drunk Love, but more drugged out, chill and trippy). This is what happens when someone is left too long thinking about upcoming films. It's awful. Will probably bump the IV thread and ask for thoughts because barely anyone has any idea of what it will be like.
