Not really, because in a lot of cases movies can have a lot of the important information of a storyboard in the script itself, in fact not even all movies have a storyboard. Lyrics are never the most important part of music, because they... really aren't music, technically. They're something music borrows from poetry to achieve a more tangible meaning, but technically speaking they aren't music as they could be replaced by simple notes always. Of course some songwriters focus on it first, and that's okay, but they aren't a key component of music at all whereas storytelling is very much a key component of movies. That said, I think this explains pretty much everything about your taste in movies. Complaining about CGI, praising movies seemingly solely on their direction and cinematography, and basically never really talking about the storytelling... it's a shame that seemingly most of the movie industry nowadays shares that point of view too. Mind you I'm not saying it's a bad point of view, but ideally you want people to take art forward in all the ways possible and right now it seems the movie critics and professionals and stuff only care about movies that are well shot and don't rely too much on digital effects, and that mentality has been taking over recently, which is a shame because no individual mentality should ever take over any industry ideally. |
The language of cinema are images in movement, the script does not focus on the image nor the movement, is a different thing. Almost every single big classic of cinema are superb expresing emotions using visual language, watch The Goodfather, watch Casablanca, watch Taxi Driver, watch Pulp Fiction, watch Dunkirk, yeah those movies may have good scripts of course but is their complete dominance of the audiovisual language what makes them such huge classics.
