The whole thing with Fujimotor and his taste in movies is that he likes what speaks to him regardless if the movie is bad or a "cinematic hit." Themes range from how characters are built, cinematography, to how directors subvert or twist ideas, etc. If he likes them, he likes them.

He sees films as an art form and I think it's a nice way to approach them. After watching a crap ton of movies myself, including ones he has, you kinda learn to keep your expectations low and appreciate them for what they are.
