    The overwhelming majority of those movies aren't even remotely confusing, lol.

    sees a movie with a straightforward linear plot but a twist and time travel element wow, how avant garde and confusing

      We created a movie that only makes narrative sense if you watch it inside out, upside down, and backwards.

      Lolz, why you confused tho?

      Like, a bunch of these films make the non-linear narrative the entire draw. Or use heavy handed metaphors and literary allusions to obscure the message as a kind of trivia-contest for the audience.

      Watching "What Dreams May Come" and not leaving the film a bit turned around would imply you fell asleep through most of it.
