KEK
>>198580716Wtf why did Kubrick like it so much.
>>198580716>HOW THE FUCK DID YOU MAKE JAMIE LEE CURTIS SO FUCKING HOT
>>198580788I could believe it. The man directed Lolita.
>>198580716>made me sit thereat gunpoint?
>>198580843Yes. We all know how much Cameron hates talking about himself.
>>198580788IMAGINE KUBRICK WATCHING THAT SCEENE OVER AND OVER AGAIN
wtf now I have to watch True Lies and larp as Kibrick
>>198580716>When I'm 80, I want to still be the guy trying to figure it all out.It'll all be done by some tech feeding in prompts to a program.
>>198580788I always mix him up with Salman Rushdie.
Imagine Kubrick seeing the fucked up AI-ruined 4k version of True Lies.
>>198580716>Ok James but now explain how you pulled off this effect>I don't understand Mr Kubrick, there's no effects in this scene it's just darkly lit.>Not the lighting, I mean this *points at screen* this beast, this fe-man that is dancing. Is that stop motion? How did you superimpose the Schwarz nigger into the scene?>I... I don't understand. Arnold was just sitting in the room in fron->In the room?! You had him sitting so close to it?
>>198580716>Kubrick liked True LiesCameron made this entire story up
>>198580716Imagine being Kubrick in that meeting and having to be all like "damn, James Cameron, you fuckin' talented, all impressive with your slick effects and horrific blockbuster popcorn flick. I would totally watch your movies, both my character and the real me." when all he really wants to do is watch another Fellini film in his English Country Manor. Like seriously imagine having to be Kubrick and not only sit in that chair while James Cameron flaunts his disgusting flick in front of you, the favorable lighting barely concealing his Spielbergian direction and lowest common denominator appeal, and just sit there, take after take, hour after hour, while he perfected that talk.
>>198580716Cameron deserved it.
>>198580716let me tell you something james, he wouldn't be asking how you made avatar he would be disappointed
>You have to tell me all the effects shots
>>198580716>the race-traitor jew liked that shitty Bond-ripoff/parody>did not do this for Aliens or even T2Total bullshit. Nobody likes the tranny in that film THAT much to go through that shit frame by frame
>>198583347
>>198580736it is actually weirdly awesomeit should be utter dogshit, but somehow get sucked inprobably what made that jew seethe
>>198583347kek
isnt that how all movies are watched?
>>198584697Kubrick demanded Cameron to explain how and why the scenes are done, one scene at a time. Like the dude essentially told him to make a presentation on his movie pretty much.
>>198584772I don't get it, was Kubrick just wallowing around or demanding something because Cameron makes it sound like he was just lonely.
>>198584856Kubrick probably wanted to keep up to date with modern special effects and was impressed with True Lies on a technical level.
>>198583146Lmao
>>198584856He wanted Cameron to tell him his entire process in the hopes that Cameron would realize how retarded he is
>>198584883I can see this
>>198582219Kek, now that you mention it
One of Kubrick's favorite movies was White Men Can't Jump. He never got to find out how Woody's dunk was achieved.
>>198580736>"WTF JAMES, THE FUCK'S A GREEN SCREEN?!"
>>198580716I miss Kubrick like you wouldn't believe
>>198585042I'm leaning towards this. True Lies is a shit movie and Kubrick probably wanted to rub Cameron's nose in it.
>>198585240it's obviously an artificially low basket.
>>198580716I would've thought Kubrick would have more questions about Terminator 2's special effects if anything.
>>198580736Honestly, it's just a really interesting movie.The chase scene between a guy on a motorbike and Arnold on a horse going into a hotel and up an elevator. That shit is just shining gold.
>>198580716This reminds me of that time they revealed about Trump and his gorilla channel,
>>198583146kek
>Those fish in Piranha II, are they practical or matted in?
>>198580788Genuinely lol'd
>>198583347Nice.
>>198584883>>198585042The duality of Kubrick...>>198585505Seriously this.
>>198585240I watched money train last night was kinda meh
>>198585759people actually believe this
>jim I gotta know.. how did you get that masterful performance out of tom arnold?
>>198586212my respect for trump would go up a little bit if it were true. sounds pretty based ngl.
>Wow Jim, I almost believe Arnold is attracted to Jamie Lee Curtis there
>>198586212It was in a serious book about him, its true.
>>198586212Ya, maybe I’d it was just the first paragraph I could buy it. But the second one couldn’t be more obvious that it’s not real. And even for a leftist you have to be extremely insane to still believe it after the third. Anyone that reads that and unironically believes it are mind broken.
>>198586563no he DEFINITELY kneeled 4 inches of the tv and talked to gorillas
>Well Stanley, when it came time to shoot the scene with the helicopter, the camera operator kept fucking it up so I said "fuck this, I'll shoot it myself"
>>198585426True Lies is blockbuster trash but in the 90's everything Cameron was doing was cutting edge from the technical side. Kubrick started making films in the 40's, T2 and True Lies must've looked like black magic to him
Based Kubrick making Cameron dance for him.
>>198587623This. Kubrick was also fascinated with beer ads in the 80s. How the lighting was set up, how so much was conveyed in 30 seconds, >"Forget what they’re doing — selling beer — and it’s visual poetry. Incredible eight-frame cuts. And you realize that in thirty seconds they’ve created an impression of something rather complex. If you could ever tell a story, something with some content, using that kind of visual poetry, you could handle vastly more complex and subtle material."
>>198585042You are fucking moron. The public speaks with their wallets when they go to see a James Cameron movie. And this has been the case since T1. You're just jealous your smelly hipster films are not more popular. And Cameron's production techniques were always interesting and cutting edge. So no, Kubrick was genuinely trying to understand how such complex scenes were composed and filmed. Be more jealous faggot.
>>198583146
>>198580716>>198583146>>198583347Humiliation ritual
>>198585563Hurry, my horse is getting tired!
>>198587833For all the intellectual weight that Kubrick seemed to carry with him, he was very pedantic and always tried to find roundabout ways to explain these things. Beer commercials looking like visual poetry was just executives and ad makers having conference meetings where they lay out everything - "10 sec of airtime was bought for 2 mil on 3 channels. Make it as slick as possible - maybe shots of a sexy woman in a casino- then a guy comes to the bar and gets a Michelob and she gets all excited and make the beer bottle look sexy". This is exactly the conversation that goes on in advertising conference meetings. The people who make and edit them are just puppets taking notes from executives. Kubrick thinking this is visual poetry when it was actually directed by some faggot yuppie in a suit to make drinking Michelob beer look sexy to women so it gets more sales is the height of Kubrick's pseudo intellectual pretension. The guy never was straightforward like James Cameron. In a Cameron film, what you see is what you get. No subtext intended. Stanley on the other hand tries to find subtext and artistry even in the most obnoxious commercial ads. SK just comes across as a pampered primadonna sometimes.
>>198589280>a pampered primadonnaWho extols the virtues of low culture beer commercials and White Men Can't Jump. You can't have it both ways. If he only talked about high brow shit like Wild Straberries he's pretentious. If he talks about beer ads he's a pampered primadonna. Kubrick filters people the same way that Nabokov and Joyce did: by consuming high and low culture and finding interesting things in all of it. >In a Cameron film, what you see is what you get. No subtext intended.Can't tell if this a compliment of a diss on Cameron. His movies make a big splash and then fade fast exactly for this reason while Kubrick still casts a long shadow even though he's been dead for 25 years.
>>198587833He's got a point. There's a reason ad directors like the Scott brothers, Michael Bay, Adrian Lyne, Gore Verbinski, and David Fincher were all able to successfully pivot from ads to feature films
>>198580716He was actually making fun of him like a true autist.
>>198580736Because its awesome.
>>198580716what is KEM?
>>198590255Must be a Keller-Elektro-Mechanik editing flatbed
>>198583146>>198583347this is why i keep coming here
>>198583146lmao
>>198580716the more i learn about kubrick the more i love him,. i know every dork loves him but just, he was fucking based. thats a true artist right there. fuck you
>>198580716Cameron attracted all the top kinomakers
>>198590466tarkovsky just didnt like the competition. He didnt see cameron as a threat and therefore was okay praising his movies.
>>1985904662001 is grossly over-rated.
>>198590492tarkovsky even called bergman boring, the same guy who directed nostalgia
>>198590524Idk the movie still looks beautiful, well shot, and the ending still creeps people out 60 years later
>>198585426You're coping toward it.
>>198580716Cameron made true lies?
>>198580736Kubrick, unlike his fans, actually isn't a elitist pretentious tosser and appreciated films for what they were. True Lies was also the last great action blockbuster of an era(don't start telling me about The Matrix, I don't care how much you liked it)
>>198580716kek based autist>>198580736is fun kino>>198580788based
>>198590649Afraid so
>>198585240Kubrick also loved "The Jerk" with Steve Martin, Kubrick make kino after kino by just watching shlocks at home, he's incredibly based
Has anyone ever seen the original french film in which True Lies is based?
>>198590705Box office was the most important indicator of a film's success to Kubrick, he didn't care about reviews. For a short period he must have felt like he'd cracked the code on it with 2001 and ACO, but then his takes fell off and was completely eclipsed by the likes of Spielberg and Lucas, who's brains he picked a lot trying to figure out what their secret was.
>>198583146Top kek
>>198583146fucking lol
>>198580736Kubrick was a huge “white men cant jump” fan too
>>198589280Actual ad industry fag here, you’re not wrong about the executive level but the people who then have to execute on that usually have dreams of doing something more meaningful - people like Ridley Scott and David Fincher started out directing ads, don’t forget that.
>>198590825No anon, noone has ever seen that one
>>198580925Don't joke. Next analysis theme trend just dropped among the Stanleyfags.But Russell Mulcahey tells a similar story about talking to Spielberg who rang him up out of nowhere after he'd seen Razorback and just peppered him with questions about how he achieved a number of effects.This is just what kikes do. Someone else innovates and they get VERY interested in the hows and whys.True Lies is dogshit (FUCK YOU, it's trash) but it's full of "firsts" in regards to digital FX (mixed with top grade physical modelwork) and certain unique lighting techniques (did you know JC had his own custom LIGHT GLOBES/filaments made to get his signature "Blue" in his mid-career movies? No, you didn't. So FUCK YOU).Stanley was not asking about LE AWESOME RETARD GOYSLOP ACTION ADVENTURE, he was hitting him up on all the technical stuff.But yes, all the youtube Kubrickheads will now try to tease out le secret qualities of that pile of turds.
>>198583146>>198583347This is the only analysis needed.
>>198583146Fucking lol
>>198586212>He doesn't watch the gorilla channel. NGMI, NGMI so hard bro.
>>198580716he loved it so much he refrenced this scene in eyes wide shuthttps://x.com/JFrankensteiner/status/1691957749234475133
>>198590785The Jerk isn't schlock you ditz, don't use words if you don't know what they mean.
>>198589842the reason is they are able to run a tight production, nothing more
>>198587623
>>198590492this
>>198590994He has good taste then. Your mother was an astronaut.
>>198580736>Tom Arnold>JLC looking like a woman>hot daughter>Large scale terrorism on American soil>American bomers attacking targets on American soil>The Harrier scene>Bill Paxton>ArnoldHonestly this movie shouldn't have worked.
>>198591115shut up shmuck
>>198585759Why didn't they just call Trump Tower and ask for details of the Gorilla Channel?Why are libshits so incapable of maintaining even internal logic.It's not like a bunch of his own staff wouldn't have traveled with him.If you're gonna slander someone, the details matter.
>>198590825French Farces can be pretty painful. But it would make for a curios comparison video at least.
>>198583367Yes, he's a feminist wokie.
>>198580788The scene is unironically kino and you know it. The set up, the framing, the way the dark colors of the room play around with the actors, Arnold sitting there, face covered in shadows, IMAGINING
>>198580736It's action schlock kino. Just IMAGINE
>>198585759this puts the phrase "gorilla nigger faggot" into a new whole perspective
>>198585759Oh this is supposed to be real? I thought it was some copypasta typed up specifically for this site. Why are they like this and then pants shit and kvetch about "misinformation"?
>>198583347Kubrick toyed with doing a WH40000K film, he wasn't a snob
I love when directors make cuck authors seethe and kubrick did it best. stephen king was eternally exposed for the fraud that he is when people ended up liking kubrick's shining way more.gene wilder also did it to roald dahl with willy wonka. wilder basically came and said, do it my way or i'm not doing it at all. dahl was pissed
>>198580716>Jim, this is fantastic. I've never seen such raw sexuality rendered cinematically like this. The gyration of her hips, how the light catches the musculature of her linebacker buttocks...really outstanding stuff. Jim, I need a breakdown of your lighting setup for this sequence, what types of lenses you used, and detailed specs on the fabric, size, and model of the thong she's wearing.
>>198580736Why don't you? It's a really fun movie
>>198590705100% the most based post on the 4chans rn
>>198590785>Kubrick liked White Men Can't Jump, True Lies, and The Jerk>made kinos about elites living above the law and enforcing omerta through sex magick rituals He just like me fr
>>198585759I was thinking the same thing
>>198580788Just imagine being Arnold in that scene
>>198589280i remember reading an interview about the commercials and kubrick specifically talks about a women talking on the phone (the michelob ad) and how she hangs up, the mystery of what she was talking about. that's what he's talking about, it was a sexy women hanging up the phone in a way that seemed like anger but you weren't sure. execs definitely want to push their brand in a positive light but as someone else pointed out here, the directors sneak in a bit more here and there.
>>198591091this could also be pointing out something about Schwarzenegger and Shriver, since she was a Kennedy. kennedy references in the shining too
>>198580788kek
Some of you guys are fucked in the head. Kubrick actually was just interested in how the film was made.
Best thread on /tv/ right now, sticky tier
>>198591726>we'll never have genestealer callidus hiding her poop and fucking Inquisitor Draco 12 ways to sunday>we'll only have Amazon sassy femstodes and another heartbreak for Cavill.
>>198585759i lost my shit over this for some reason
>>198585759THAT'S MY PRESIDENT
>>198590590But Bergman is boring and Nostalghia is kino
>>198591702At the start of Trump's presidency, the media was reeling about being called "fake news." They didn't start their "misinformation" crusade until Covid hit
>>198585759I don't get why libtards like this pasta so much.Do they actually think it's real or something? It's painfully unfunny.
Wasn't Kubrick also obsessed with Spoorloos? He wanted to talk with the director about the editing of the film
>>198585759Lefties thought that this piece of fake news would make Trump less appealing? They just make him cooler. Lmao, kek even.
>>198586786Amazing. Didn’t do the same on Terminator 2?
>>198580736I think Kubrick spent his life making artsy kino, masterpiece after masterpiece that in his personal time he just wanted to chill and watch a fun movie, thats why he liked stuff like True Lies and White Men Cant Juml.
>>198593681He was bright enough to see the worth in lowbrow fare instead of sticking to limpdicked middlebrow respectability. He even liked commercials
>>198590705Based.I was in the gym yesterday listening to “My Unbelievably True Life Story” (Arnie’s autobiography) for the 50th time (although I usually stop when he gets married and resisted to the California golden era) and he described almost falling off a building from the horse stunt. I should watch True Lies again.
>>198593681>White Men Cant JumlEh? He really liked that movie?
I love True Lies and Strange Days, just awesome movies in the literal sense of the word.
>>198591091>>198592153also links to FMJ>Yep, Stanley Kubrick himself apparently wanted Schwarzenegger to play the character 'Animal Mother' in his Vietnam epic 'Full Metal Jacket'. The part would eventually go to actor Adam Baldwin. 'I didn't have time to do it'
>>198580736Because he's never seen a john woo movie it seems. There's a lot of kinetic, woo-isms in it. Hard-Boiled being a major influence
>>198589280No, Kubrick was a real highbrow and didn't mind taking inspiration from disreputable sources. Don DeLillo is also big on commercials. The best minds have no problem enjoying brazenly commercial art. Meanwhile midwits sneer at "slop" while hailing Citizen Kane as the best film ever.
Based Cameron humbling that hack Kubrick.
>anyway, do you have any questions about my films Jim?Nope.
>>198593998Based
>>198593894As if that was ever gonna happen. Arnold was already a major star by '85.
>>198590466Tarkovsky was always a dumbass snob. The irony of your image is that 2001 ASO was one of the earliest inspirations for James Cameron in getting obsessed with filmmaking when he was a teenager. He tracked down Jerome agel's book on 2001 after seeing it.
>>198590705Only anon in this thread who isn't a drooling retard
Kubrick is the origin of the pasta
>>198592241Yes. This and the thread on eyes wide shut should be allowed to stay up for weeks. The discussion is just too good.
>>198592241>>198590473
>>198594285Are you being an ironic gaylord, anon?
>>198585759I heard Hitler had a Jewish girl chained up in his bunker during the last years of the war and would regularly torture her to lick the tears off her face. When the Russians started shelling Berlin at his birthday, he tortured her to death by wrapping her in a big blanket made of human skin taken from her parents and then humped it, but couldn’t achieve a proper orgasm, because he only has one half of a testicle. He then beat her to death and burned her.
>>198585759>all the seething replieskek, what's wrong with wanting a gorilla channel?
>>198591421There's a reason it gets memed on
>>198585759If this is true, then there is no reason for anyone to not vote for this man. This is Elan
>>198591025based
>>198590524Most of his films are top quality propaganda pieces disgued as arthouse cinema and there's no denying his skill as a director and compositional storyteller. That being said, I found 2001 to be one of his weakest pieces. The effects are good, but the subtlety of his later works is missing and the story is full of holes.
>>198583146Thanks anon, I needed a laugh today
>>198595021You forgot to mention that the last third is basically nothing but a dude breathing heavy in a space suit. I could not fucking finish that movie because of the excessive amount of male heavy breathing. The waltz music during space scenes was also grating on my ears. All this after I made myself watch the whole thing for once because I had gotten filtered by the weird ass opening scene of dudes in gorilla costumes.I get that it was the first time somebody made model shots of space ships look real and that's why boomers have a sentimental attachment to that movie. But it really sucks nowadays and is one of his weaker movies. Barry Lyndon is GOAT Kubrick kino imo. 2001 blows chunks.
>>198580736He didn't like it, he just wanted to extractinformation from Cameron about how he did it.I watched it again recently and it is shockinghow obvious the stunt double shots are forSchwarzenegger.
>>198595341Kubrick was such a low iq shitty director that he didn't know how to do basic film stuff
>>198590825I havedon't expect to see Thierry Lhermite flying an harrier
>>198595423He was mostly a loner autist in his private life but I've heard a lot of stories where he would call other professionals in the industry and have long conversations with them about inane stuff. He just wanted filmbros to talk shit with but was too much of an enigmatic recluse to be on the LA scene.
>>198595423He knew basic film stuff but was unafraid to askquestions from people who knew more thanhe did. A good quality in a director.
>>198593328yeah, the scene where the heli flew under the overpass was Jim because the main camera operator pussed out. Chad heli pilot wanted to do a second take but several suits were on set and shut it down.
>>198585759if this was true I would like trump more
>>198583146>In the room?! You had him sitting so close to it?
>>198584883He might have also just enjoyed it. There's a tendency to think that people who produce "high art" don't enjoy more popular stuff, but that's just not true. Famously, Werner Herzog loves Wrestlemania. He doesn't watch WWE every week, but he really enjoys catching the big performance once a year. Similarly, I suspect Kubrick probably wasn't a guy watching every Arnold flick to come out, but did see True Lies and thought it was clever and fun.
>>198585563it's like machine versus horse!
