a 12 year old boy made this meme

>>25116707
Tv is a literary board, they spend all day obsessing over dialogue and media that is based on books

>>25116709
I'm 55

/tv's taste in cinema is embarrassingly provincial, so I am skeptical of their taste in books. I think they rated the Dark Knight in their top ten greatest films of all time and Kurosawa didn't even get an entry in the top fifty

Last time I visited /tv/ they were praising the stupid Coppola Dracula movie that added that retarded romance subplot.

>>25116715
I figured you were 25-30, so I was being extremely generous; I clearly said the person who MADE the meme and not posted it.

arguing on tv has its drawbacks like engaging with the actress obsessed incels while trying to pop their bubble that films involving attractive actresses are not necessarily good, but it's definitely better than this place which always comes off as pretentious and elitist, on tv, you don't have to pretend you are some wannabe scholar

>>25116737
Yeah but what books do they often talk about there? I want to go over and make them feel ashamed if they have shit taste you see.

>>25116737
At least /tv/ likes women

>>25116707
That invincible summer is named Jesus Christ! Hallelujah!

>>25116737
/lit/ is more pretentious and elitist but it's also far smarter than /tv/ so you're just admitting to cutting corners and settling for the watered-down crap

>>25116737
The drawback is that 99% of the time they discuss slop.

>>25116737
the point of 4chan is to be elitist, retard. go back.

>>25116757
and what have you achieved by being elitist, you are just stuck in a echochamber screaming at ghosts of your own making

>>25116765
But you see, he's not a normalfag, so that makes it all worth it.

you turned down the difficulty of the game and think that's worth bragging about JEJ

>>25116765
way more than you've achieved by being a midwit dullard with a transparent inferiority complex

>>25116777
So nothing at all then.

>>25116777
it doesn't seem like so if the highlight of your day is wasting your time arguing with a dullard
>>25116774
what difficulty, most of you retards spend time regurgitating the same talking points and never getting anywhere

>>25116737
Answer the question anon, I won’t go to that sty unless I have good reason to >>25116751

>>25116782
Leave then, go back to /tv/ and discuss fucking dawsons creek or whatever you do there. Clearly you’re upset about the way you’re treated in /lit/. Only a doormat masochist or a retard would stick around if he hated it here so much.

>>25116787
they discuss narrative not books, literature is not about books alone
>>25116790
i can do both anon, i can discuss with tv while admonishing lit, you seem like the angry one, pretending that /lit/ is in the best form it has ever been and can do no wrong

>>25116707
>woah... discussing a topic in any board except its own is... better?
First day in 4chan?

no you don't. go back.

>>25116841
doesn't seem like it was that good if you keep coming back for more bile

>>25116737
it's so obvious you've been lurking/posting /tv/ FAR longer than here lmao, don't you have a media literacy subreddit to get back to moderating

>>25116822
I was 32 when 4chan started so no

>>25116853
you are one dumb retards who hates visual media because they don't get it, what's wrong, do color pixels give you a seizure, can't parse video information, have no visual imagination?

>>25116707
>/lit/, you don't deserve me! I will continue to post here incessantly for the next 10 years nonetheless
Can we just sticky one of these threads and leave it up on the board for all these guys so they don't make this exact post 20 times per day?

>>25116754
And yet you wouldn't discuss the early Buddhist literature I've long been inviting you and /lit/ to read. You know why? I know why. Because you didn't read. You know why you didn't read? Because you were busy feigning intellectual character.

>>25116709
While a 12 year old boy. I found within me, this meme.

>>25116711
It's a pleb board that obsesses over actors and actresses and only watch hollywood slop. That that have read have only read genre slop.

>>25116707
>I get better lit discussions on tv
That just means you get easily swayed by the internet forum equivalent of water cooler talk.

In the midst of it's over, I found there was, within me, an invincible we are so back

>>25116737
Real. The worst part is the trolls aren't even funny anymore and the elitist criticism isn't even helpful, only dismissive and time-wasting.

>>25116707
Why are you still here? Go to >>>/lit/

>>25117137
Uh. Yeah! You tell him!

>>25117033
>That that have read have only read
Whoa, slow down there, champs. Breathe some air.

>>25116857
Are you really acting this conceited over the fact that you sit in front of a tv and do nothing for 2 hours? Yeah, we’ve all watched a movie before retard, it’s not fucking hard, you’ve got nothing to act superior over.

>>25116707
>get better lit discussions on tv,
This is true for all subjects across all boards. Try discussing sword and sorcery or Robert E. Howard on /v/ sometimes. You'll get a great 300 post thread where everybody is sincerely analyzing the genre in-depth.
Conversely, I've had some discussion about video games right here on /lit/ I could not have had in a million years on /v/.

Yeah, I'm just sorry it took me so long to realize it. I wasted a lot of years on tg
You guys may be elitist af but tg is elitist AND insufferable. I can at least have a discussion here about whatever I have been reading

Film is for midwits

>>25117304
very generous. the literal bottom tier of our society does nothing besides consume hours of tv each day while simultaneously scrolling on their portable tv phone

>>25117339
Shitty books most people consumed of the past centuries weren't much better

>>25117304
Before the Internet and video games, TV was the brain decaying pastime, and with many people it still is, even their arthouse slop like Dekalog and Bergman are as you say, midwit failed writer tier at best.

>>25117304
By that logic, romantasy books are better than The Thing, The Good The Bad, & The Ugly, and Seven Samurai

>>25117347
>even their arthouse slop like Dekalog and Bergman are as you say, midwit failed writer tier at best.
Hell nah. I see the books you midwits own when you post them. Get off your high horse.

>>25117352
He said nothing of literature though, plus, those three movies you named are great, wonderfully made films, but they’re still lowbrow entertainment anyone could enjoy. They’re all venerated too.

>>25117352
This is a logically fallacious argument - the "false dichotomy"

>>25117344
I'm of the opinion that people were much more generally intelligent in the past. I do in large part blame the television. Our modern, multi-ethnic society is comprised of a bunch of detached, lazy hedonists who think nothing further than their next dopamine session. Look no further than our current elderly population, arguably the biggest TV lovers of them all. They act much different than elderly people did of the past. The elderly often actually were wiser and more learned than their children & grandchildren (for obvious reasons) & placed greater emphasis on religious piety & communal well-being. They also acted as a bulwark against progressive politics. The same cannot be said today as most young people pity and condescend their ill-informed, TV obsessed grandparents

>>25116765
it allows me to gatekeep retards like you so i get exposed to less retardation. isn't that obvious? you couldn't figure that out on your own?

This board has basically become just leftist faggots, refugees from Reddit and 8ch, and brown and gay groypers/zoomers pretending to read.

Unfortunately, tvchmoe /lit/ is slow as fuck. And other places are full of women and Gen X/Boomers with terrible taste.

nice spacing

>>25116707
I read a lot of books, but /lit/ doesn't read the kind of books I read

>>25117972
I’m not /lit/. I’m from uhhhh…. /sci/, yeah let’s go with that, /o/ I mean /sci/. So anon, what books do you read?

>>25117977
I really like trashy creature horror. Especially if there's a spec-ops team that has to fight them. Especially, especially if the creature was uncovered through human folly. I can chew through them in 1-2 days. Also enjoy bizarro horror from time to time. I also really enjoy transgressive lit, though I haven't read one in a while.

>>25117984
Based, sounds like a blast actually, not my thing though personally since I actually am a pretentious il/lit/erate (sorry for lying) but I should probably stop being so insular and expand, any authors of note?

>>25116711
I wish capeshitters in /tv/ actually read comic books and not demonstrate exactly what >>25117033 says

>>25117993
William Burke and Grieg Beck are my favorite authors in the genre, my favorite books from them being Scorpius Rex and Beneath the Dark Ice, respectively. Michael Cole is a big one, but I find him kinda mid. Micheal Meikle has a whole series about a spec-ops team fighting different monsters. There's Matthew Reilly- his books are like really trashy sci-fi movies. Tim Curran is a huge name and his works are great except that he really drags them out too long. Then there's Hunter Shea, his books are like trashy sci-fi movies that would be actually pretty great if the budget had been higher.

>>25117993
They're all kinds of fun. Matthew Reilly's Great China Zoo is like a Jurassic Park rip off except with dragons. I could see the movie in my head, including all the shitty CGI and terrible shaky-cam. It was amazing.

>>25118053
>>25118065
See, I used to love movies that you’re basically describing in book format. I’ll take a look into them, thanks for it man!

>>25118082
No problem! I hope you have fun!

Stephen King is basically, like, one of the best writers of all time, and all the adaptations of his books are better than the books themselves, so, like, I'd say /tv/ proves to be superior.

I’m Generation X and I don’t even like King. I don’t like millennials either but that’s besides the point

>>25118354
Stephen King is literally the most popular and unconditionally beloved author by Generation X; he basically shaped us.

>>25117957
The universe is telling you that nobody cares about /lit/ including the faggots that keep claiming it is elitist but are nowhere to be found when actual meaningful discussions are being held.
