Film Maker respect or being foolish

Okay so really cant call myself a film maker not yet Anyways but is it me or does it feel weird not wanted To watch other movies because you dont want to steal any Of there ideas ?

I think as a filmmaker, you have so many of your own ideas that you won't need to worry about taking someone else's. Also, everyone takes inspiration from films and you'll find that a lot of stories are similar to others just told in a different light. There's a lot of similarities in filmmaking but it all comes down to how you tell your story differently.

I think it's just you. I can't imagine not watching movie because I might steal an idea. I love movies too much to stop. I learn too much from watching movies to stop.

Jonnie Dean

Using an idea from a film is a good starting point, but you could create a mind map and see what branches off, you might be surprised how your own experience will shape it into a fresh scene for your film!
