Did you like the movie?
I’m sure you’ve asked and heard this question dozens of times. At the same time, talking about the film can be even more interesting than the picture itself. But this is possible only when all participants are ready to open their minds and you have interesting questions for discussion.
Today I want to share questions – puzzles that will give you a flight of thought and turn the film chat into a captivating dialogue.
But first, I’ll tell you how I use these queries myself.
First, I love to philosophize about cinema quietly to myself. It works great when a movie is stuck in my head and I’m trying to figure out why. This quiz is always the first step to understanding my movie obsession. Movie journals are always on my work shelf. In addition, I have an excellent article about why do I feel sad when a tv show ends.
Secondly, questions help me to have fascinating conservations with friends. Now we even come up with alternative movie plots while we eat pizza. Also, this quiz can help you chat up on a date or warm up an evening with your family. Or you can host a movie night with friends and discuss the movie later; it will be a lot of fun for movie lovers!
Thirdly, I love to talk about films with my husband. We chat about our thoughts and feelings after the film, laugh and spend extra time together. It brings us very close!
But remember, this is not an interrogation. It is not a list of questions to be asked in a strict order. These queries are just ideas that can be developed. It is essential to respect each other opinions, even if it does not strongly coincide with your own. So don’t turn the chat into a fight.
