How do movies affect your worldview and personality development?

Post by deucher » Mon Jan 15, 2024 6:39 pm

I have been greatly influenced by films and even continue to be influenced by them. Due to the fact that in my childhood I watched romantic series and movies with my mother, I grew up quite so calm and sensitive, and I also liked comedies, so I have a good sense of humor, although not everyone will appreciate it.

Movies have a significant impact on people's worldview and personality development. They shape perceptions, attitudes, and beliefs by offering perspectives on diverse cultures, societies, and experiences. Characters serve as role models, influencing behavior and values. Themes explored in movies can provoke reflection and empathy, fostering understanding of different viewpoints. Movies provide escapism and emotional catharsis, affecting mood and mental health. However, uncritical consumption can reinforce stereotypes or unrealistic expectations. Thus, individuals should approach movies thoughtfully, recognizing their potential to shape and broaden their worldview.

Movies can significantly impact worldview and personality development by shaping perceptions and sparking emotions. Through storytelling, movies expose viewers to different cultures, perspectives, and experiences, broadening their understanding of the world. Characters serve as role models or cautionary tales, affecting values and behavior. Additionally, movies can evoke empathy, compassion, and inspiration, fostering emotional growth. However, unrealistic portrayals or stereotypes may perpetuate misconceptions. Critical viewing and discussion can mitigate negative effects and encourage reflection, enabling viewers to discern and integrate valuable insights into their worldview and personality development.

The kind of movie you watch is what's going to determine how it affects your view of the world. This is why I love watching historical movies or TV shows. I get to learn a lot about different cultures and the rest. It's how I'm enjoying Shogun right now.

I don't place too much importance on movies that I watch. I just see most of those movies just for fun and not necessarily for any other reason at all. That is how I have always enjoyed watching most of the movies that I see.

I also know very well that most movies are just fiction made up except for the one's that are about the real life events that took place at one point in time. This is why I agree that you don't have to base your life on what goes on in movies 99% of the time.

This is interesting to know. I feel nothing when I watch movies. I just go with the flow and worry less about any other thing. For me, I see watching movies as a way to relax and not something that can end up affecting the way that I live my life.
