Daily Inspiration Quote by John Foster

Taste, here, is doing double duty as confession and credential. John Foster leads with a shrugging aside - "as you can probably tell" - that performs modesty while quietly implying a track record of opinions others have already noticed. It’s the rhetorical equivalent of an architect pointing at a building and letting you connect the dots.

The real payload is the phrase "totally unique style", which sounds casual but stakes out a serious position: action is not just choreography or spectacle; it’s authorship. Foster isn’t praising bigger explosions or cleaner fight beats. He’s praising direction as a signature, the way Michael Mann’s gunfights feel like industrial jazz, or how Jackie Chan turns physics into personality. "Filming action" matters too: he’s focused on how the camera thinks, not merely what the stunt team does. That distinction signals a viewer attentive to spatial logic, rhythm, and the geometry of movement - exactly the sort of sensibility an architect would bring. Architects live and die by how bodies move through space; so do good action directors.

Subtextually, this is a gentle swipe at assembly-line franchise action: coverage-heavy, edit-masked, style-by-committee. Foster’s line is an argument for legibility and intent, for action that communicates character and worldview instead of serving as content padding. He’s not just talking about movies. He’s aligning himself with a broader cultural craving for singular vision in an era of interchangeable product.
