Moviemadin Guru

  • Build a structured watchlist.
  • Keep a viewing log.
  • Read and listen widely.
  • Practice focused analysis.
  • Share and discuss.
  • Learn a bit of production.
  • Archive resources.

    • Netflix and TikTok algorithms feed you what is popular or similar to what you just watched. The Moviemadin Guru rejects this. Instead, the Guru advocates for Curved Curation—watching movies that are the opposite of your comfort zone.

    The most practical takeaway from the Moviemadin school is the daily drill. The Guru suggests watching the first five minutes of a random movie without sound and writing down the plot based solely on lighting, blocking, and costume. Then, turn the sound on to see how close you were. moviemadin guru
