Sometimes referred to as a "film purist", the celluloid simp is an individual who maintains a very strong belief that celluloid film is the only way to shoot a cinematic movie. Despite being more practical, accessible, affordable, and modern than a thin sheet of synthetic plastic, Digital cameras will NEVER touch the hands of a celluloid simp.
A lesser variant of the Celluloid Simp is the Film Fraud: individuals who shoot movies digitally, but then proceed to degrade that nice, clean image in order to mimic the flawed look of celluloid film.

Tarantino: “Shooting on digital is like eating a veggie burger.”
Person 1: "Why does he hate digital cameras so much?"
Person 2: "He's just celluloid simp, that's all."
