The Droid You Are Looking For has put out a chart defining The Six Stages of Movie Geek Evolution. And yeah, for as witty as it is in mocking the traits of the typical film-goer, its so humorously and painfully all true.
For me at least, I've definitely hit all 6 of these stages. But my one complaint with it is that the stages suggests defining borders between each stage, as if each new stage suggests a complete shedding of the preceding one. But I feel like a little bit of all of these types of cinephilia are part of my overall movie-watching experience. They aren't independent of each other, they complement each other. And I think/hope, that I'm the better for it.
