It's important to remember these are just tendencies. An INTJ might also enjoy a good comedy occasionally, and an ESFP might appreciate a thought-provoking documentary. Ultimately, movie preferences are a complex mix of personality, mood, and personal experiences. But MBTI can be a fun way to explore the connection between who you are and the stories you enjoy.
