“A certain way” in much the same sense all cars need four+ wheels, a steering wheel and an accelerator and some breaks. If I get into the tiny details, having lights is also rather good.
What you were saying is that it’s unreasonable to expect stories to be… well, stories. You know, with a beginning, middle and end?
Unless you’re trying to tell me that two-wheeled chain driven transport with no steering wheel or motor is also “a car”, I think I’ve made my point.
i’m not aware of any definition of story that requires it have those elements, or they be presented in that order.
you have a very narrow definition of what a story is, and seem to think anything outside of that structure is bad or wrong.
i mean you can define a car however you want. doesn’t mean other people have to drive such cars or agree with you. definitions change. is a semi truck a car? it has all those qualities. but i wouldn’t call it a car and i’d considerate to have zero overlap with operating a car, hence why operating trucks often requires a CBD and not a regular drivers license.
I’m guessing you never took a college level film class? I took several. A lot of the movies we watched, and I’ve seen seen outside of class, don’t subscribe to your definition of story at all. I still very much enjoyed them and thought some of them were far superior to marvel movies.
I too could argue that you have a way too narrow definition of a car and since my feet also take me places, they’re also a car. But it’d be fucking moronic to do that, just like your argument is utterly moronic.

And that’s sort of the issue here.

Cheerio
so your argument is you are right because you are you and all that matters is your opinion on things?
and auto-motive engineers, are wrong if they don’t agree with your layman definition of a car?
Must be nice to be smarter than professionals who make movies and cars. Wish I as much of a genius as you clearly are.
