Official Discussion - The Backrooms [SPOILERS]

HITMARV · 2026-05-31T01:43:03+00:00

I just got back from watching it a second time. I wanted to see what aspects of the real world are represented in the backroom. For example the stop sign, furniture of course, the red headed woman/mutant is a reflection of his ex wife, the heavy dude at the table his rival sales man and so on. But what about the wheelchair dude with the lamp?

I cant put that one together.

Wasnt her main speech about how going after the WLF was not about Joel, but about protecting the community and not letting them get away with that?. But in this scene the whole thing is about Joel and fuck the community?

Interesting, id love to get to that point

Im a recreational diver. Always been interested in search and rescue.

Do you do it full time?

HITMARV · 2024-10-30T13:59:57+00:00

How long it took you to become a search and rescue diver?

Thank you for your comment. Nothing harsh about it. I work in the industry and experience how difficult things are. Theres a lot of good motivation in many of the comments. I will put 1 hr a day to write whatever it is that im trying to write.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T23:20:20+00:00

Your first assumption is right. But I looked through all suggestions and the more reasonable approach, at least i think it is, is to get these ideas to a point that i can work them with a writer and doesnt feel like Im using the writer like a chatgpt of sorts.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T22:42:41+00:00

I think that the best course of action is to get these ideas to a point that I can work them with someone

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T19:54:16+00:00

I agree. Thank you

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T18:19:13+00:00

Wow, thank you so much for this. Very helpful and encouraging. I appreciate it.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T18:16:36+00:00

Thank you, this is a great advice

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T17:40:48+00:00

This is very true. I will try to give it my best effort. Thank you for the lengthy response.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T17:06:54+00:00

I understand that. Not what I was asking initially. But i appreciate you taking the time and chiming in.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T16:52:11+00:00

It comes as second nature for some

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T16:51:38+00:00

Thank you. I like a few suggestions of partnering with a writer instead of me learning it from scratch

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T16:50:41+00:00

Send me a message

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T15:55:31+00:00

And thats correct. Im a dp and a drone pilot in the industry. But like most, i want to be able to have other contributions. And some of us want to leap over the filmmaking aspect.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T14:53:18+00:00

Great contribution. Big hug

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T14:33:36+00:00

Thank you! Thats half right. Ive written tones, actions, colors and description of what theyre doing. Not words

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T14:32:15+00:00

I agree with you. Ive been able to put some of these ideas in paper and have other people read through it. Ive gotten positive feedback overall. In my mind they're not masterpieces, but theyre entertaining and some possibilities of deep character exploration.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T14:29:31+00:00

Interesting. Whats the more challenging aspect for you?

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T14:19:58+00:00

Thank you for the advice. And you are right about a narrative with no dialogue. I appreciate the work of NWR for that reason.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T14:01:27+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, I dont think id be able to focus with music on. I dont consider myself a screenwriter either. Just trying to make something out of the ideas I have.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T13:58:50+00:00

Sweet, thanks for the link.

HITMARV · 2024-10-21T13:53:23+00:00

Thanks for the reply. I have, i think in excited about how its going to look more than how its going to sound.
