Examples of ISTp-ENFp Duality in Movies and Literature

[mikemex]

I would like to recommend you two movies (I seen both in the last month) if you want to get a picture of how this types are and think:

ISTp:

The perfume (although this is taken to the extreme).

ENFp:

The Pursuit of Happiness.

[eunice]

The Village: female ENFp, male ISTp

[meatburger]

ENFp:

The Pursuit of Happiness.

Yes. I saw this the other day and i got that impression too. The whole concept felt very ENFp

[Topaz]

What types would you say are in the movie The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? I just saw that again and its one of my favorite movies. The guy seems IXTP and the girl seems EXFP (well maybe). They both are somewhat unhealthy but it does underscore some main points about their types. I love the way it was filmed.

[napalm]

ENFp:

The Pursuit of Happiness.

Yes. I saw this the other day and i got that impression too. The whole concept felt very ENFp

That must be why that movie gave me a warm squishy feeling inside and stuff.

[olduser]

I like action movies.

[meatburger]

I like action movies.

Me too, i haven't seen many lately and it sucks. I used to love all the marital arts ones, Stephen Segal, Jet li, Jean Claude Van Dame etc.

I saw smoking aces the other day that was refreshing

I like the comic book, action movies like X-Men, Spiderman and V for Vendetta. Im looking forward to the next Spiderman movie and the Fantastic Four as well. The previews looked awsome.

I used to think like this, but I've learned that it has become a dissapointing setback. In the modern society, movies have become major events for the average individual by providing an exciting moment to look forward to in the future, I've learned that you can achieve the same result through other means at this very moment and retain similar amounts of euphoria.

[olduser]

yeah dude, movies suck. I'll quote an old man who watched an entire football game. He is responding to the question, 'how was the game?' He said, 'That's too long to sit!' Movies are the same way.

[Expat]

Im looking forward to the next Spiderman movie and the Fantastic Four as well. The previews looked awsome.

The first Fantastic Four was awful.

As I mentioned elsewhere, Jeniffer Connely's character in Blood Diamond is a good example of an ENFp.

I watched fantastic four on satellite tv about 2 hours ago. I thought it was average.

Blood Diamond is a good movie. God i used to have a crush on Jennifer Connely when she was in Labyrinth

ENFp:

The Pursuit of Happiness.

I thought the same too! There is a thread a short ways back about it.

You know, I got that kind of impression. I thought it was more likely INTp-ENFp.

The most obvious movie example of ISTp-ENFp duality I have seen is in Bound, a movie by the Wachowski brothers (who directed the Matrix).

[Exodus]

Ha. I recently watched a crappy 70s movie "S*P*Y*S", in which Donald Sutherland played an ENFp, and Elliott Gould played an ISTp. I think Sutherland is an ENFp himself.

LOL, I wasn't talking about drugs, but alternatives. You can always look up a major event going on in your city that will be less stale and fresh because it something you have not experienced. Also a good alternative is to read about an interesting movie that is 10 years old and pretend that it is coming out in one week, then watch it with enthusiasm at your house as if it was just released. :wink:

[Gilly]

Eternal Sunshine is an SEI and LII.

[Gilly]

I thought activity worked: they were immediately drawn to each other, but in the end, there were just some things they couldn't see eye-to-eye on. This usually makes me think Activity or Super-Ego.

[Topaz]

Eternal Sunshine is an SEI and LII.

above i meant to say semi-duality (of the sorts) for Enternal Sunshine, darn typos.

i can actually see SEI for the girl Gilly, the relation doesn't seem to be activity however.

Though I dont know many SEIs I dont see the female in this film fitting that type. She was too assertive IMO. and the guy didnt seem LII either. Both seemed irrational. I would suggest ESTP and INTP perhaps.

[olduser]

intp-- esfp is more likely. She was hyper aggression person who makes bad decisions.

[Exodus]

dont see the female in this film fitting that type. She was too assertive IMO.

Agreed. Though I could see INTj for the guy.

[Slacker]

example of this couple:

[meatburger]

haha. It really annoyed my how they handled that hat situation, it was extremely rude. I went to the cricket and some guys sat in front of us with these giant hats, i couldn't believe people could be so rude.

That did seem like a good example, i would certianlly know to hide that i have no idea in a situaition like that but it was a movie. Poor bloke

[jewels]

I agree about the hat thing being awkward. I think it was suppose to be funny that she didn't notice about the hat, but yeah it made me feel weird also...

This is really interesting as I hadn't realized Katharine Hepburn was an ENFP. I wonder which subtype she was, as she can be kind of rough around the edges.

I think it's a cute clip though and I like how he is trying to calmly explain the baseball rules in the midst of everything else.

[xyz]

I always thought Hepburn was a cutie.

[discojoe]

[xyz]

Wow... I genuinely enjoyed that whole segment.

Thanks Discojoe.

[discojoe]

np

Um... What um... What th.... What the hell do you think is wrong with these people?

lmao

[xyz]

np



lmao

That's exactly the sentence that made the sit up and pay attention.

Finally, someone who wonders WHY THE FUCK EVERYONE LUMPS ALL THESE SEPARATE ISSUES INTO ONE BIG FUCKING "GO GREEN" CAMPAIGN.


Goddamn guilt ridden yuppies.

[tiny_dancer]

Okay, if you want to decrease the amount of waste on this planet, don't produce such ridiculous articles as biodegradable fanny packs and hand them out en masse.

[Gilly]

Wow, they both seem like enormous cock jobs to me. Some fair points, but a lot of total bullshit and really poorly done sarcasm/mockery. I give it a solid 2.5/10.

Not sure about SLI/IEE, though.

[duality is cringe]

Wow, they both seem like enormous cock jobs to me.

Lol. Pretty much my thoughts exactly. Couldn't make it through the whole video. Not sure what's supposed to be so interesting about their interaction.

[discojoe]

I think Glenn Beck is hilarious.

[Park]

I think Glenn Beck is hilarious.

I agree.

[Reuben]

Here's a video highlighting SLI/IEE failed relationship:



Sometimes the SLI feels like he's just worlds apart from the IEE, like he's just dirt, downtrodden, nothing at all. Nobody recognizes him, loves him, or notices him... and he believes that the IEE should treat him that way too because she's just too good. Like an angel (especially Fi-subtype lol).

Because he considers his inability to provide for her, to give her the world and all that she would desire (or he think she wants... not knowing that all she wants is him), he refuses to pursue the relationship... for her sake.

He does not know that he is her entire world, and that she really isn't an angel; she's just a curious soul searching for a precious gem not yet washed, cut, and shined...

[suedehead]

Ryan Gosling - IEE/ILE
Michelle Williams - SLI

[Waster]

@Suedehead Not sure about the guy but the girl definitely seems like SLI to me. I especially liked her joke, it's something I'd find funny.

[wacey]

I agree this is also how I view SLI/IEE, suede, nice find. Michelle most definitely plays an SLI. Maybe she is one in real life as well? Could explain her happy relationship with Heath Ledger, an IEE.

[Qaellech]

1995's Casper the Friendly Ghost
Casper - IEE
Kathleen Harvey - SLI

[wacey]

Hey thats a good one, Qaellech!
