Are you more liely to attend an indie or a blockbuster style movie?

[Zoaric]

Blockbuster. I'll see an indie film if it interests me, but I find that many do not.

[Pachycrocuta]

Blockbuster-type movies. I have tried to watch "indie" films (the type you see advertised at Cannes or Sundance Film Festivals), and they have all been boring as fuck and terrible. Whenever I see an image like this on a movie poster or dvd box:

I avoid it, as the vast majority of the movies with that symbol I have found to be dreadfully boring. The last movie I saw with that symbol on the poster was Napoleon Dynamite. A lot of that movie was cringeworthy, and it got boring in many parts, but it was barely watchable.

So yeah, blockbuster type movies for me.

Eh Indie movies are very hit or miss with me. I like to go to the movies to escape reality not sit for 2 hours of monotone acting and a boring story. Usually with a Blockbuster I know what I'm paying for. Indies are either very good or pretentious artsy crap.

I usually wait until I can watch an indie-type film at home. Blockbusters can piss off in any format.

[Pull My Finger]

Not sure what "indie movies" really are. I don't know if it's this kind of thing where there's usually a lot of "unsettling" silence and very miserable people who end up killing themselves or contemplating about sexual frustrations and childhood abuse. That shit drives me nuts.

On the other hand, I'm also incredibly bored of Hollywood blockbuster productions, because it's predominantly obscene attrition warfare garbage with less substance than a fart on an empty stomach.

Which kind of leaves me with watching the classics. And television - nowadays, the quality of writing in series is often superior to the big screen, which is a little bit tragic.

Yeah, TV has certainly upped it's game. Developing characters over 12 hours is more appealing than 2.

"Indie Films" certainly are hard to pin down these days, probably because Miramax started producing them as blockbusters in the mid-90s and it really blurred the lines.

[Jingoism]

Not very likely for either. Hollywood pushes a disgusting and degenerate agenda that wouldn't be so bad if it didn't negatively impact the quality of work.
