Thank you for taking the time to write out a few of your criticisms. I think that I agree with most of them despite being unable to come up with them on my own. I've always wanted to get better at reading poetry…

I don't understand the condescension in this comment. Do you think cinema can't be art? You seem incredulous that people might actually get a ton of value out of engaging with something at this level.
Oftentimes it's a matter of "you get out what you put into it". Some people are content watching film and engaging with it only on the surface level (and that's fine!), but others enjoy really diving in and ruminating…
Look into the Powered by the Apocalypse games (Apocalypse World, Dungeon World, etc). My gaming group switched over to them after we spent an entire 3 hour session fighting a few vampires and everyone was sick of it.…
It has quite a reputation from back in the day, but I find Something Awful to have a very high level of dialogue, probably because you have to pay a small fee for membership, and they aren't afraid to probate/ban people.
