A: Wait, after all those cheating scandals he’s still married?
B: My guy, actor no dey die for film.
Example 2:
That striker missed five chances but still scored the winning goal. Actor no dey die for film.

A guy on YouTube with a mysterious team of animators obsessed with poop, bullets, weapons, blood, dogs, burials, and more. It's often said that those who go to his videos frequent them on a daily basis, to the dismay of the bots who are so toxic and insecure that they will claim that their videos are better. These bots will also try to missedly convince someone that they are a troll or spammer, just for attention.
Common tropes of comments made on his YouTube videos include "Respect to the guy who respected the guy who respected the guy" and "These animators need a raise!"

One who possesses knowledge pertaining to films that many may find extraordinary, and are usually good filmmakers, graphic designers writers. Besides film Film, Geeks are usually are good with tech in general.
Random person: Hey bro I heard you're like a film genius!
Film Geek: Speaking of geniuses I assume you have seen Jaws? Well did you know part of the reason the cast had time to improvise was because the robotic sharks kept breaking down, halting production. Named “Bruce” after Spielberg’s lawyer, the sharks relied on a complicated series of pneumatic pumps that kept getting fried by the sea water. Breakdowns became a daily occurrence. Undeterred, Spielberg had the actors improvise their scenes while he wrote the dialogue into the script. The impromptu workshops proved a success, resulting in fully developed characters that enraptured audiences — all thanks to faulty props.
Random Person: Whoa.......

A slang term that combines the concepts of "a thin surface material" (like plastic film layer) and "movies", suggesting a playful or humorous overlap between the two meanings.
Every time I watch a movie, I can't help but think about how film is just a thin layer of entertainment stretched across our screens!

The type of person to watch paint dry and try to find meaning behind it while using verbose sentences and condescending words to downplay any disagreements on their views of film and television.
Regular viewer: "man, the director really sucks at showing their message."
Film snob: the layers and comprehension of this film are yet to be fully understood and the implications that can be found within the dialouge and narrative that is presented, one foolish person such as yourself can only dream to be explained."
