i despise Letterboxd and what it does, cheapens film discussion to memes, normalfaggotry, jokes, fads and worse of all, Fantanoification of film. HOW CAN PEOPLE USE IT? WHY?BUT...I have to make a letterboxd, I plan to make a letterboxd so I can meet people? maybe get friends? maybe.....get a gf (online) thought that?I have no other way of meeting people as a shy shut in (25), and I do like film but is this a solid enough plan? I feel depressed about it as I have forgotten most films I watched but i cant even write a single review. I tried before on goodreads, no one ended up reading mine...What should I do? Could it work?
>>217619314I ignore the comment section/ reviews I only use it to document what movies ive seen>using letterboxd to make friendsyeah that seems a bit retarded,might as well just go to reddit
>>217619314Post your goodreads review, I'll give it a read
You just have to block like 40 people and then it's alright, it's not hard to find them they are always in the top reviews.Also depends on what kind of films you watch. You would be surprised at how nice the reviews are on the pinku are lol
It looks like Letterboxd was one of the places people who hate Elon Musk fled to after he bought Twitter
Why are these movie websites so adverse to having discussion pages. Why does Letterboxd instead revolve around 25 year olds in New York calling every movie they like gay and progressive
>>217619314>what it does, cheapens film discussion to memes, normalfaggotry, jokes, fadsThis is literally the exact same shit this board does. Except on letterboxd you can just not scroll down to the fucking reivew section.
>>217619383>>217619606>>217619536>>217619504So think my plan to get a gf online can work or not? I havent left my home nor met anyone now in 8 years nowShould I date AI instead?>>217619419No i deleted it, i never ever connected with anyone using last fm...stories of people getting online friends if not more...must be bullshit
>appears in your reviews
>>217620010That's me.
>>217619482Why does that guy Shafrillas appear as the top review on every fucking movie? I assume he's an e-celeb but his reviews are literally never funny or insightful in any way. Bottom of the barrel one-liners.
Believe it or not, people with friends put up with a lot of shit with each other and theres a lot of drama. This is true for both young people and older people. I live with my parents and they always talk about how even grown ups can be cheap.

>>217620010Honestly, the current 2020s normalfag, memes joke-reviews version of Letterboxd is really bad but the 2010s tumblr-version when people like this creature dominated the top reviews with their political schizo rants were honestly worse
Rating movies with a number is dumb.
When tf are letterboxd going to introduce tv shows. I don't care about ratings, reviews, discussions, etc. I only use to document what I've watched and what I want to watch.
>>217620136This but unironically.
Op is a 60 year old mtf

>>217619941I miss last.fm too
Hello and what about my plan? Guys can we focus on this please?>>217620096Ok and what does that have to do with me?
>>217620198I was being serious. I don't need to numerically compare everything I've ever watched. Oh, Blast To The Past is a 6.5 but The Burbs is a 7. Who fucking cares. Get real.
>>217620264You don’t need friends.
>>217620264Terrible plan. Nobody exchanges socials on this site. It doesn’t have a private message function. You don’t have friends you have followers, so even if you follow someone there’s no guarantee they’ll follow you back. People tend not to post their faces on their accounts so you’ll have no idea what anyone looks like.
>>217619314Just get into the habit of writing a review no matter what, it gets easier with time.
>>217619314You sound insufferable, nobody is going to want to be your friend much less your online gf or whatever faggy shit you’re expecting so don’t bother.
>>217620381What do you mean? I mean I can be at times...im a virgin, I need a gf.>>217620342Ive seen lots of normies and girls who do use it like that alongside twitter or other stuff
>>217619536Libtards are removing any sort of comment sections from every website they can because it makes them realize how outnumbered they are and they usually get owned in any type of logical argument.
>>217620436You’re quite the annoying little fucker, have you tried shutting up
>>217620114No it wasn't, schizo reviews are actually funny, the shitty one liner jokes are just insufferable. Also this tranny is actually hated on Reddit cause xer's a schizo tankie who simped for North Korea and I think supports Russia. Basically a chud.
>>217620436> Ive seen lots of normies and girls who do use it like that alongside twitter or other stuffPlease explain, I’m curious.
>>217620010>>217620114>see unhinged review with feminine name>click profile>I Saw The TV Glow
Idk op, I am pretty normal and I going to start a letterbox account or whatever tonight.
I don't even know what Letterbox is
>>217619314letterboxd is a website for women
>Libtards are removing any sort of comment sections from every website they can because it makes them realize how outnumbered they are and they usually get owned in any type of logical argument.
>>217620282>everything is the samemidwit commie take
>>217620171serializd
>>217620479You're right. The reviews for What Is a Woman? are still hidden because it mostly normies reviewing it and they couldn't flood the likes enough to keep the libtard reviews at the top. They had to shut it down.
>>217620765That's not my point at all.
>>217620756Why do leftists and redditors post here?
>>217619941>So think my plan to get a gf online can work or not?Probably not. I've had sex with women I met online plenty of times, but never a gfHow tall are you and what is your weight? Are you good looking? Do you have money or cool shit that you do?Post pics
>>217621105you're just proving my point lol
Bump
>>217620171Plenty of good tv shows on letterboxdsorry they don't have your american slop that runs until it gets cancelled on a rushed or cliffhanger ending
people who complain about letterboxd aren't using it right. if you think the lowest common denominator lame joke reviews are bad, follow the people who leave thoughtful, nuanced reviews.the site is literally what you make it. when i go to a film's page, i rarely look at the most popular reviews - just skip straight to "reviews from friends"
>>217620479>they usually get owned in any type of logical argument.It's the opposite though. Americhuds are never able to refute redditors, leftists, or Europeans on anything.
>>217621999You can't trust an opinion from someone who has seen this many films.
>>217622069Why?
>>217622113not him but that's like 1 movie a day consistently for 20 yearsI would assume someone like that cares more about the number than the films
>>217622054>everyone pays for everyone Thats why everyone is a loser in Europe.
>>217622054Fuck europe. They are called europoors for a reason. They are all pathetic.
EVERYONE ON THIS THREAD FOCUS ON MY PLAN>>217622386>>217622054Fuck you to death. FOCUS ON MY PLAN
>>217622261I mean I'm a little over one movie a day right now and I care about the films. I write actual reviews instead of tumblr-esque one liners.
>>217622261that was my profile, i have never made it to 1 film a day for any given year. not even during 2020 when a lot of people did because covid
>>217622069You are retarded. >>217622054This post has been refuted already.
the amount of sponsored pages in the site is unbearable, also the userbase has a bad case of recency bias
>>217622597Is it bad that the only movies I recognize here are Marty Supreme, Weapons, No Other Choice, K-pop Demon Hunters, One Battle After Another, and Sinners?
>>217622432You need a job or a vacation to Thailand. Also forget about 4chan, movies and television for a while, just the time it takes to grow into a man and then come back here. I did this. You can too.
>>217622432You will never look the girl in your pic.
>>217622689Men don’t go to the third world.
>Hello Letterboxd Ladies, would anyone be interested in being my friend or perhaps, dare I say it, my girlfriend? I'm a fa/tv/irgin and will be able to make you laugh with the memes I've saved to my personal computer from 4chan.
>>217622839>I also weigh 60 pounds and own maid outfits
OP HERR I JUST GONE GORESPAMMING ELSEWHERESO IT CANT WORK THEN?
>>217620010>filename
post the number of films you've watched. here's mine:
>>217619314After all these years I still don't know what letterboxd actually is and what purpose it serves.
>>217619314>describing yourself as "shy" at 25you genuinely need to kill yourself at this point, you don't even realize just how gay you are
>>217623960It's social media like this site. It's focused on movies and television shows. You can rate and review things you watch and read and follow what other people post. People try to build a following by writing generally short, clever or quipy or funny or insightful reviews, or sometimes they do something like review only the scenes in a show where a cat appears, or some other joke bit.
>>217624032Sounds cringe and hipster'ish.
>>217623960It's goodreads for movies, it's just a site that allows you to log the movies you've seen and upload reviews
>>217619314I like to record my own thoughts on a film to look back at and laugh and giggle aloud with my wife and friends. What do you do with your wife, anon?
>>217619383>I only use it to document what movies ive seenWhy? The only purpose of doing that on a social media service is to show it to other people. You could just keep a list locally if you didn't care about that.
>>217623922I only started watching movies in my 20s, I used to only play videogames and watch anime
