## **🤔 WHY I STARTED FILMSPOT:**
Remember that magical feeling when you watch something that stays with you for days? That conversation you can't stop having about a film's ending? That's what we're chasing here.
**I got tired of:**
- Clickbait "reviews" that don't analyze
- Rotten Tomatoes scores defining worth
- Same 10 movies getting all the attention
- No space for nuanced discussion
**So I built a space for real film lovers.**
