Alright, didn't really mean narrow minded i guess.
I mean i see what you are saying about tricks being very similar, i get that. But you are the one doing the editing, the guy behind the lens creating the idea and flow. If you know how your edit is gonna "stack up" then switch the style up and try something new to distinguish yourself.
While We Can is one of my all time favorite movies. Is there any mind blowing tricks in the movie? Anything new? No and No. It was the idea and passion behind the creation of the movie that made it so great in my mind.
Dont know if that makes sense, but thats how i see it
