If you consider yourself having more sophisticated, artistic taste in movies, you may reserve the term 'film' for those. For the movie snob, Casablanca is a film, Spiderman 4 is a movie. Nothing too wrong with making that separation in my mind. I agree with the sentiment that Avengers may not be the most sophisticated movie out there. Most people know this and would agree. But randomly calling attention to it to make sure people notice that you have a sophisticated taste is a little pretentious. |

I had no idea this was a distinction. I just thought 'film' was what the British called them and 'movie' was the Americanism. We say 'I'm going to the see a film' rather than 'going to see a movie'.
