To see mbti revealed in a movie, go see Divergent.

Click on the trailer at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sutgWjz10sM

The movie shows mbti to be militaristic, paranoid and reifying us into types.

Of course mbti was originally used to induct women into the war machine.

I found it rather obvious while reading the books that:

Dauntless= SP
Abnegation= NF,SFJ
Amity= SFP,NF
Candor= STJ,NT
Erudite= NT,ISTP,NF

There are obviously exceptions, like Four who is an ISFJ and Dauntless.

She doesn't seem like she's very familiar with MBTI as she says she's INFJ one day, INFP another, and ISFJ the next, of course she did say she "abandoned" that obsession a while ago, so maybe she was at one point.

Well, it sounds like she had an IF fixation but didn't test clearly overall. And no, it doesn't sound like she really got into function theory and such.

Divergence actually makes the categories even crazier. Instead of 16, there are only 5, and they're not based on ways of perceiving and processing adding up to a particular personality but just on particular functions in society as the personalities themselves.

"Divergents threaten the system. We won't be safe until they're removed."

Man. What a Te movie.

If it turns out that the writer is an INFP, it means that it's weak Te that drives this movie.

And if it turns out that the writer is an ISFJ or INFJ, it means that Te is in the shadow for her and is thus a function-attitude that she doesn't accept, which also drives the movie.

Look. Let's just dig our heels into one of these interpretations and then rationalize it until we're blue in the face.


.. ... actually, yeah, [MENTION=3325]Mole[/MENTION]'s assessment of the premise of this movie is pretty spot-on.
