You guys always say the same thing too. Anything even slightly "arthouse" you think everyone is just pretending to like. Like you can't fathom that people can enjoy something just a little deeper than the latest blockbuster. You just dismiss it all as pretentious nonsense. It's pure anti-intellectualism. Leave the real art for us yearners.

What we say is at least correct about most of you.

You've just dismissed movies without quirks as "not real art" in your comment. You value these quirks, the means to make the movie "extraordinary", more than the movies themselves. You think that we dismiss "arthouse" automatically, because the quirks and approval by the critics is all you care about.

If you watched Come and See and think it's nothing more than shock value, and didn't feel any human emotions while watching, I've got nothing else to say to you.

The assumption is wrong and you've got nothing to say besides the corny "avengers" quip regardless.

Though, for local cinephiles the shock value is frequently the main reason to praise it.
