What do you people consider to be films bros love? You know how Twitter thinks Tarantino and Scorsese just make pictures for the fraternity, or how Paul Thomas Anderson, the patron saint of this forum, has a dedicated audience of dudebros that love Thomas Pynchon novels.
Easiest explanation would be things you see on college door room, the Fight Clubs and Pulp Fictions. Just look at IMDB and Reddit which people think of as film bro sites.

Heard some tweets saying Good Time was for the Pulp Fiction/Whiplash crowd and Uncut Gems for the Drive/There Will be Blood/Shame crowd.
