I will more than likely see this. Not because I'm a pedophile and I want to see a 12-year-old being raped, but rather because I like seeing movies that make me feel something other than happy. I like to use my brain in a movie... no, I love it.
I love being drawn into a film and made to feel what the characters are feeling. That's part of what made me want to make movies. I want to do that for people. I want to entertain them. I want to make people laugh and cry and make people mad. But most of all, I want to make people think.

And that right there is the center of your argument. To you, movie making is not only an art form, it's a MEANS TO LIVE.
For most of us, we sit in a cube all day and the last thing we want is to sit through a movie that makes us feel EXACTLY THE WAY SITTING IN A CUBE MAKES US FEEL.
