>>84637140I liked that movie I watched it the same weekend I watched no country for old men

when i comes to GOOD movies, what most people dont understand is that biographies are written for characters before they are inserted into the scriptthose biographies help create a slew of multifaceted characters tend to love or hate, as opposed to surface level boring commerical bullshit aimed for the masses that arent interesting at allbut most people watch movies to past the timei watch them as character studies, try to figure out why they do the things they do in a period of two hourso to engage with a person who watches movies as a past time is useless because they dont understand the subtext needed to build that character
>>84637185>hecking literally me self insert shit
in EVERY movie, a character has a motivediscussing what that characters motivation is with a normie doesnt fly with them because that shit literally flies over their headagain, subtext, it doesnt matter with these peopleso, in regards to movies, everything has its purposethe color red has a purposebut ask normies why red was choosen as a color palettetheir answer is: durrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr red
>>84637267to be fair, you have to have a high IQ to understand kino
>>84637266are you bear or nikki
>>84637140i am slowly becoming daniel
thats why i keep my mouth shut when it comes to moviespeople are just too stupid to be able to peel back the layers of a movie for the sake of discussiona scene, a character, the color palette, the reason why characters do what they do...all of this takes months to constructed in order to tell a coherent story that normies just ignoreits insulting reallylike have some appreciation for artplease
>>84637267>everything has its purposegay> motivewhy do people only care about fictional motivesno one tries to understand real peoplenot in any real way i don't thinksociety.. society..

i used to watch a lot of movies. Ive watched most movies worth watching that came out after the 1960s. i dont really like movies from before the 60s, hitchcock movies are really good and a couple of the noir movies are too, but that traditional type of acting they use in those movies has aged horribly. best movie ive watched from before the 60s is rope by hitchcock, strangers on a train is probably #2
>>84637370how did you like the Nightmare Alley remake?
>>84637323in regards to movies, everything does has a purposeyou ever watch scene in a movie, and go, what the heck was that? and that scene was never addressed again or it wasnt given an answer?no, because those scenes are considered to be throwaways - add-ons that add nothing to the story, only adds confusion if inserted into the movie
>>84637388i havent watched either. ive watched the third man, maltese falcon, sunset blvrd, double indemnity and a couple others i dont remember
>>84637391>you ever watch scene in a movie, and go, what the heck was that? and that scene was never addressed again or it wasnt given an answer?yeahi, just think, 'gay' beacuse ive never hear anything more than pointless drivel>his sweater was blue and he was sad oohh the attention to detail
what normies dont understand is thislets say a movie is two hours longwell, those two hours, believe or not, consist of the most interesting portions of each of the characters lives that you see on screenso its important to pay attention to what you see, because what you see offers insight of what happened before the movie begins and after when it ends
but i dont talk about moviesi keep that shit to myself
pick up a camera and make a movieand when you watch the dailies youll come to realize, was does it look like SHITwhy does everything look like absolute shitwell, that answer to that is simpleeverything has a purpose in filmwhen you dont give it purposeit looks like shit
when it comes to horrorwhat setting would you chose for a forest sceneleft or rightnow, the answer is fairly obviousbut a person whos never made a film wouldve never guessed that adding fog adds an unknown atmospheric element that doesnt allow the viewer to see clearly which adds dread onto the scenewhats why things matter or have purpose in film
>>84637699thats* why things matter
go into a dark roomand look into a corneryour mind immediately puts a monster in that dark corner when you know theres nothing there - crazy how the mind works, rightanyways...a smart filmmaker takes the macabre your mind creates and puts it in filma person who doesnt know how to make a horror film, never wouldve guessed to make a corner of a room darkits is why everything you see in film mattersit all serves a purpose
I like movies, but mostly 70s-90s. Can't stand modern capeshit.
