Hormones panicking cause action. 30-35 is when women start panicking for kids too. My brother said he'd never have any, I said wait until his wife hits 30, now he has a kid.
Yeah, that's the age where I thought "That's it, I'm not going to be 30yo virgin" and took way more risks. Ended up having a bunch of sex, having a child, making a friend who got me a unique job, all in one year. My life changed a lot.

At around 30-35 your body goes through another 'puberty' where a wienertail of hormones basically make you motivated and run like you're the energizer bunny or a teenager once again.
Scientists theorize this is because the body is telling you to find a mate and get kids before you can't anymore.
Thats why people seem to get a second wind at that age, and that's why people rapidly get older after it.

30 is when John Hughes decided to leave his office job and START making movies.
Youre far too hormonal in your 20s to be a cool collected person. Some people channel it into ambition and good for them but a lot of successful 20 somethings still have massive chips on their shoulders and fricked up self esteem.

I mean, sure, but there are so many israelites in Hollywood that you can't just say "well he's a israelite" as for why he got nepo hires, when there are hundreds of other israelites his same age who also are trying for the same thing

okay so you have no actual proof that Speilberg had any kind of industry connections? didnt think so, as far as I know he just got a job on the lot, worked his way up to directing television, then B movies, then made Jaws and everything changed.

>At age 13, Spielberg made a 40-minute war film, titled Escape to Nowhere, with a cast of school classmates. The film won first prize in a statewide competition.[40][41] Throughout his early teens, and after entering high school, Spielberg made about fifteen to twenty 8 mm "adventure" films.[42][43]
What were you doing at 13? Probably jerking off and playing video games, not making short films.
Losers will tell themselves that they could have been great if they just had different parents. It's a cope as old as time
>Spielberg is currently 76 >he was 13 63 years ago >63 years ago it was 1960
And how expensive was an 8mm film camera in 1960?
A quick google, I found some britbong talking about pricing in 1969. > Here are prices from the 1969 Walton catalogue for sound films:- >200ft Standard 8 = £5 10s >200ft Super 8 = £6
Not sure which he used so I'll go with both, keep in mind this is 10 years after he started so prices would've dropped as technology improved.
£5 10 shillings is £115.82, £6 is £126.35 today. The man says he made £20 (£421.18) a week at that time. A bit of digging and silent film were about £52.65 ish.
This is just for the film alone, I would imagine the cameras were considerably more expensive. How often did your parents give you the equivalent of £115.82 ($147.02 USD) when you were 13?
Found a camera with pricing, the Kodak Instamatic M2, "less than $40", released in 1965. $388.18 USD in today's money.
Again, he was 13 years old, spending $60-150 (USD) a reel on a $400 camera.
When I was a kid the console we got was a generation behind the newest one and we were allowed to buy games once to twice a year, even the ones with new consoles weren't allowed new games whenever and the parents usually played them too. They also didn't require a repurchase after 10 minutes of play time.
I don't understand why you feel bad about this shit when
It's like
"A bloo bloo bloo alexander the great was conquering shit at 16 and became king of 3/4ths of the known world before he was 30"
Yes, he was also the son of a king in the exact right circumstances to flourish. We don't all get the circumstances others do. Just try and enjoy your time here and do what you can for those to come along after you. Whether that is having kids and raising em well, creating some media or product or story or whatever that inspires even one person, ect.
Case in point
Reminder that Alexander the Great conquered Persia and Egypt at that age

I’ve decided just now that I’m going to work 4 days a week for the remainder of my life. Frick working full time. Life’s too short to be working all the time.
If you can do it all the power to you. I think people stuck in the cage get furious at people finding a way out so they treat the idea of 4 days a week with hostility on nothing but envy. It's that monkey brain business of "I'd rather get nothing so this guy gets nothing than get 3,000 and this guy gets 30,000.
>It's that monkey brain business
Worse. It's crabs in a bucket. The biggest mistake any of us can make in life is to let ourselves truly believe that we're not fricking animals. The entire idea that humanity is in any way elevated above our base instincts and animalistic drives causes us to ignore those those things and ascribe deeper meaning to those impulses which amount to little more than our ancestral apes screaming in our long forgotten lizard brains.

We're all gonna make it, life is fair, you just have to want things really hard for them to happen.
I work a 9 to 5 job like in Office Space making $40,000 a year. I'm 33 and have never been with a woman that I didn't have to pay for. I can barely afford fast food on the weekends to treat myself. What are the odds that I make it in life by the time I'm 40...
Im 33 work in an office and make $47,000 a year. I save up every dollar I make as much as possible by never going out on the weekends and never buying clothes. I have one pair of work slacks and four work shirts and a few t-shirts as casual wear. I show up to work early, never take time off, and work over time as much as possible.
I couldn't afford rent after it was raised and I moved back in with my parents. The only homes in my area that are within my price range are completely rotted out shitholes that someone would have to buy and flip, which I obviously dont have the money for. This has been happening in my area where affordable homes around $100K are bought, made all gaudy and modern, and listed for like $350K.
I am currently busting my ass at work in the hopes that I can convicince my boss to increase my pay to $50,000. This way I can at least move out of my parents place and afford an apartment's 40 min away because that would be the only thing near work within my hopefully 50K income.
Do you have a (non social-studies) degree? That seems extremely low for an office job, hell I made more than that my forst job out of school in a low skill marketing role. You used $ so Im assuming youre not a eurocoper I know the financial situation is a lot different there
Haneke was born into a trust fund family, but only managed to get a directing job at 32, and directed his first film of note at 47. I find that interesting.
I’ve decided just now that I’m going to work 4 days a week for the remainder of my life. Frick working full time. Life’s too short to be working all the time.
I worked a four day week for almost five years. Going back to a five day working week where I also occasionally had to work weekends destroyed me. Haven't worked in a year and a half since leaving that job. Never, ever doing full time shit again unless it's for a business I own. The rewards just aren't there.
I am losing patience with life. All I do is work, then rest to work the next day, then work, then rest again, then the weekend comes and I have to run errands on Saturday cause I couldn’t do them during the week cause I was working, then on Sunday I have some shitty wedding or birthday or baby shower to attend. I hate being alive god damn.
as a teen i was devastated when i realized i would never achieve any real success in creative fields because im not israeli, here i was some 14 years old watching absolute shit becoming extremely popular because its made by israelites promoted by other israelites.
Not that anon but I may as well be. It's mostly just occupying time, I try and convince myself to do something but I'm not motivated until right before bed.
I read a comment a couple of months ago: "The worst thing about sitting in front of the computer all day is that there are no memories. A year may go by and at the end of the year I have no memories because I have not experienced anything. The flow of time seems slow in the moment, but in retrospect it seems lightning fast, because there is no reference point that is stored in my memory and that catches my eye."
this was from a guy that in his late 30s, and was playing games since he was 15 and does nothing else.
what is your experience?
It's pretty accurate. I have a hard time keeping track of the days. If something happened a month ago I might think it was a week ago or vice versa.

Yeah, something pretty big happened 6 months ago and up until a few weeks ago I was under the impression it was only 2-3 months ago.
It'd probably right itself if I stopped being a neet, but that's quite hard to do with a job gap like this even if you're qualified (I have a CS degree, just did nothing with it).
Oh my god I'm 25 and I'm not a fighter ace with 300 confirmed kills. God damn, oh frick I feel so worthless now. Fricking Twitter screenshot threads need to be bannable offense already, how fricking moronic do you have to be to base your self-worth on exceptional people.
>how fricking moronic do you have to be to base your self-worth on exceptional people.
this is a valid yet moot point if I've ever seen one
people always compare themselves to more accomplished individuals, it's in human nature
what's seldom discussed is the high risk and often illegal or illecit ways some individuals rise to such levels, and also the absurd amount luck involved
like the "top g"
he got stabbed in the neck while he was selling drugs at 25, one millimiter in the wrong direction and nobody would've ever known or cared about him nowadays
in the end people who always talk about hard work and never luck are braindead
I can vouch for this. I didn't grow as a person until my mid 20s when I lived on my own and a lot of the damage done in my formative years was due to an overprotective and overbearing mother.
You can close the browser to this thread right now and open up a word document and write your script.
You can take the phone out of your pocket and go outside to shoot some scenery and get ideas for set locations.

And when you fail each attempt, you try again and do better this time, until your create your magnum opus.

This dude made a cult classic at 24, who personally financed it by maxing out a ton of credit cards as the humble son of a postman.
What's your excuse?
I don’t have the passion for anything nor the reckless resolve to bury myself in debt to achieve something in the face of a macro economy that’s fit to burst at the seams
Woah you mean people who israelites groomed from a young age to be good at something are good at something? Frickin whoa
But hey don't feel bad I'm sure you've been perfecting a craft too not just consuming the creative works of others right?
A lot of these legendary directors got their start in the 70s where rent in big cities was cheap and wages were good enough to fund a side project.
Also studios were willing to take a risk on projects that didn’t have built in audiences. Now the cost of living is so bad you could be working over 40 hours a week with a college degree and still just making ends meet. Studios also won’t fund anything that’s not a household name already.
I turned 33 this summer and am starting a new much higher paying job this upcoming week. Bought a house, married, yadda yadda.
I am as every bit as autistic as you, if I could make it so can you.
You know Spielberg didn’t “make” Jaws. He aimed a camera and yelled action. Jaws was a collaborative effort of hundreds of people. Imagine a Jaws without Robert Shaw- it’d been boring. Imagine Jaws without a competent animatronics team. Imagine if Hitchwiener hadn’t made the Dolly Zoom. Spielberg isn’t an island of creativity. If anything he lucked out, he could have had a lesser team or lesser techniques or lesser actors and ended up as another Cronenberg.
What does a Shika have to do with Spielberg and Jaws?
I know this won't matter to anyone here, but I did more at 29 and 30 than the entire rest of my 20s combined.
that actually makes me a feel a bit better and gives me some hope, thanks anon

At around 30-35 your body goes through another 'puberty' where a wienertail of hormones basically make you motivated and run like you're the energizer bunny or a teenager once again.
Scientists theorize this is because the body is telling you to find a mate and get kids before you can't anymore.
Thats why people seem to get a second wind at that age, and that's why people rapidly get older after it.
30 is when John Hughes decided to leave his office job and START making movies.

Not that anon but I may as well be. It's mostly just occupying time, I try and convince myself to do something but I'm not motivated until right before bed.
I read a comment a couple of months ago: "The worst thing about sitting in front of the computer all day is that there are no memories. A year may go by and at the end of the year I have no memories because I have not experienced anything. The flow of time seems slow in the moment, but in retrospect it seems lightning fast, because there is no reference point that is stored in my memory and that catches my eye."
this was from a guy that in his late 30s, and was playing games since he was 15 and does nothing else.
what is your experience?
It's pretty accurate. I have a hard time keeping track of the days. If something happened a month ago I might think it was a week ago or vice versa.
that's terrifying.
Yeah, something pretty big happened 6 months ago and up until a few weeks ago I was under the impression it was only 2-3 months ago.
It'd probably right itself if I stopped being a neet, but that's quite hard to do with a job gap like this even if you're qualified (I have a CS degree, just did nothing with it).
death is a blessing
one of the most depressing threads in the past few days. sasuga Cinemaphile
Oh my god I'm 25 and I'm not a fighter ace with 300 confirmed kills. God damn, oh frick I feel so worthless now. Fricking Twitter screenshot threads need to be bannable offense already, how fricking moronic do you have to be to base your self-worth on exceptional people.
>how fricking moronic do you have to be to base your self-worth on exceptional people.
this is a valid yet moot point if I've ever seen one
people always compare themselves to more accomplished individuals, it's in human nature
what's seldom discussed is the high risk and often illegal or illecit ways some individuals rise to such levels, and also the absurd amount luck involved
like the "top g"
he got stabbed in the neck while he was selling drugs at 25, one millimiter in the wrong direction and nobody would've ever known or cared about him nowadays
in the end people who always talk about hard work and never luck are braindead
boogie nights is boring
They didn't have overprotective mothers. That shit destroys people, boys especially.
I can vouch for this. I didn't grow as a person until my mid 20s when I lived on my own and a lot of the damage done in my formative years was due to an overprotective and overbearing mother.
>didn't grow as a person
What does that even mean? Cooking your own shit?
>mfw son of an overprotective mother and a weak willed father
it's a miracle I'm somewhat functional in the first place
I'm 23 and I just made a fat shit outta my ass
Literally me but 28 and 5 mins ago
You can close the browser to this thread right now and open up a word document and write your script.
You can take the phone out of your pocket and go outside to shoot some scenery and get ideas for set locations.
You can open up a DAW and create any song your brain can come up with just with a keyboard and mouse.
And when you fail each attempt, you try again and do better this time, until your create your magnum opus.
jews in america get everything handed to them
its like the white privilege meme but real
adin ross is a modern example of this; literal moronic illiterate israelite boy millionaire influencer
whoc ares
So far right politics are just jealousy? Who would have thought
How’s the script coming along anons?
Julius Caesar felt like a huge failure in his 30s because he compared himself to Alexander the Great.
Spielberg and PTA never wasted their life arguing with other autists on Cinemaphile.
William Cullen Bryant wrote pic related when he was 17.
This dude made a cult classic at 24, who personally financed it by maxing out a ton of credit cards as the humble son of a postman.
What's your excuse?
I don’t have the passion for anything nor the reckless resolve to bury myself in debt to achieve something in the face of a macro economy that’s fit to burst at the seams
Woah you mean people who israelites groomed from a young age to be good at something are good at something? Frickin whoa
But hey don't feel bad I'm sure you've been perfecting a craft too not just consuming the creative works of others right?
Woody Allen once said "90% of success is just showing up to the Synagogue", when was the last time you showed up?
Well, What do you want to do with your life?
accomplishing things is for losers
Spielberg's family moved to LA and he would sneak into a movie studio to volunteer on film production as a teenager. You can't really do that today.
A lot of these legendary directors got their start in the 70s where rent in big cities was cheap and wages were good enough to fund a side project.
Also studios were willing to take a risk on projects that didn’t have built in audiences. Now the cost of living is so bad you could be working over 40 hours a week with a college degree and still just making ends meet. Studios also won’t fund anything that’s not a household name already.
Also, unions didn't have rigid rules to keep everyone in their little specialized boxes
I thought that said israelites from the thumbnail. I'm pretty sure they've been around longer than that.
Most people are mediocre, that's why they're called mediocre.
Any sage life advice from 30+ anons?
Do something better with your life than posting here.
You should have gone to film school to get a head start on maling indie movies dumbass
Do you know anyone IRL who has created a critically acclaimed work? They're one in a million.
Not OP, but my aunt and my second cousin.
David Fincher was only 6 yrs old when he made se7en. Wow
What the frick is the relevance you fricking Cinemaphile schizo?
I turned 33 this summer and am starting a new much higher paying job this upcoming week. Bought a house, married, yadda yadda.
I am as every bit as autistic as you, if I could make it so can you.
>26
>have do nothing since highschool other than sitting in front of my pc all day
Dont worry, youll be drafted soon.
I mean shit, wasn't Alan Rickman 40 when he started acting?
israelite did israelite thing, more news at 8 o'clock
You know Spielberg didn’t “make” Jaws. He aimed a camera and yelled action. Jaws was a collaborative effort of hundreds of people. Imagine a Jaws without Robert Shaw- it’d been boring. Imagine Jaws without a competent animatronics team. Imagine if Hitchwiener hadn’t made the Dolly Zoom. Spielberg isn’t an island of creativity. If anything he lucked out, he could have had a lesser team or lesser techniques or lesser actors and ended up as another Cronenberg.
eddie murphy was 23 when he starred in beverly hills cop
he was 22 when he blew a israeli producer to land that gig
