>>200440821
I agree with this dude, it is all about authenticity. The Kendrick example is so good, pure tourist rap for people who know shit about rap. The same goes for filmmakers that include persons of color, asians and latinos just for inclusivity, which imo seems more racist than just casting based on what really fits the film and your OG visions of the film, rather than feeling pressured to include and change shit based on what is "needed" socially atm.

I posted the phrase first, I honestly have no issue at all with transexual people.
I’ve never watched the film and will never waste my time watching it. I have a friend who actually sat through it and confirmed that it is indeed a massive piece of shit.
I just can’t stand when people are handed a career based solely on shit that doesn’t matter- if he was still called Dan, would people give a flying fuck about his previous film or this one?

Knife in the water, repulsion, and cul-de-sac are all great films. What the fuck happened to that filmmaker, where did he go? I can defend other films from him of course, but after that run he’s been very hit or miss. Maybe I’m not the “huge” fan I thought I was, but those first three again are great.

It can harm the film if the roles were originally written specifically for whites, if the diversity hires are not good actors or if it's a historical picture in a place that historically did not have racial minorities / the actors are cast in roles of historically white people.
Otherwise it does not matter. Unless you're a /pol/yp as in caring less for the filmmaking quality and more for the film to align specifically with your socio-political views.
>>200440821
Culture is any number of certain "traditions" or traits common within a community. Again this is just wishing films to align with your personal socio-political ideas. It's not culture if it doesn't represent THOSE specific cultural amalgamations (like hood culture). A film being about something that is rare, that is specific and not generalized has nothing to do with it's quality either.
>Yeah but you know at one time the socio-political power and cultural forces were authentic. The Civil rights movement, the cold war, real shit that people cared about.
Lol, it's all manufactured. Even back then people were noticing this shit. Every movement is "manufactured" it cannot sprung out otherwise, someone (not some specific person. could be many people) has to point out to people some sort of idea of collective interest to have them rally for it together. Most of the time people don't care much about things beyond their family, this is a natural state.
Those things only seem more "authentic" because you're looking at them through a historic lens. Current zeitgeist is no more phony that past zeitgeists.
Again, this just seems like wanting cinema to align with your socio-political beliefs. Quality of art is not as much in it's themes or intentions as it is in how it ends up in it's formal presentation. I personally found the way ISTTVG was presented very affecting and engaging. If you didn't that fine, if you don't like how it looks aesthetically that's fine too, you don't have to watch anything. Cont.

>A movie is like a dream. And in your dreams you’re free to do whatever you want. Haven’t you ever killed someone in your dreams? I won’t give you any names, but I love waking up and saying to myself, “Ha-ha! I just killed so and so.” It’s a way of getting rid of your anger. You can also fuck whomever you want in your dreams. I once dreamt I fucked Ava Gardner. I never had an interest in her, but after that I really respected her work. Diane Keaton showed up in one of my dreams once. I fucked her too.

Cont.
But I find it annoying when people just go straight up to muh politics, muh it's not spiritual, or some crap like that. You don't hate the movie in this case, you either hate that a movie is trying to represent something that is a part of that reality that you personally dislike or you're just afraid for some reason to admit that you don't like something on a personal level aesthetically.
I find the former most annoying. It's just insufferable political doomerposting. You don't care about art in a vacuum, you care more for politics, you're depressed about the current state of affairs and you shit up everyone else's film discussion with your depression. Do I like the current state of things? Hell no I don't. It may not seem that way, but I have reactionary views, someone might think they border on schizo babble. But I'm interested in art over politics. I understand that current art will represent current times, current aesthetics, current feelings.
Although I will say that I do understand why someone who grew up somewhat absent from the zeitgeist or immediately disliking it will have harder time with a lot of current cinema, not just mainstream. I grew up somewhat spoiled, and also very liberal. Not as in my parents were liberal but as in I myself was. I was a guy watching cartoons, disliking sports. My views through teenage years were bordering on progressivism. I struggled with deviant denegenrate sexuality too. And while I have altered my life path and moved away from those things in mind, I still retain a lot of aesthetic preferences in art / media from that time, and I couldn't let go of them. This makes it easier for me to engage emotionally with most current media / art.

>>200441663
I like satanism. Also, the atmosphere of the film is supreme, the ending is the shit. The fact that the mythos beyond the film also enhances the film (the apartment where the satanists live was actually the place where John Lennon lived and is close to where he was killed). Acting was cool, specially from Chadavettes. Themes of paranoia slapped, and I weirdly can relate to them. Mystery elements are really well developed. All in all, one of the coolest horror films ever made imo. I'm a horror enthusiast btw, so I can tell you that I'm not a genre tourist just trying to look knowledgeable.

I actually like the film a lot more than Repulsion. I feel like Repulsion was Polanski finding his style, and that's good, but he really came into himself with Rosemary's Baby. The apartment trilogy flows really well, and something I've always liked by Polanski is how he has woven themes of satanism and the occult in all of his movies, pretty much.

America has fundamentally changed after going from a Republic to a clear democracy. Giving women voting rights. Giving racial minorities voting rights. These were the seeds of current progressive zeitgeist. The "collective socio-political interests" were manufactured since back then constantly, to push everything into more and more liberal territory, a territory that wasn't a natural human state. America started out as being modeled after Roman Republic, and by the beginning of the 20th century it was anything but. It was an unnatural change, any change as fundamental and rapid is unnatural.
>>200441936
It feels more forced because there's more of it. But that's the entire catch. It had always been forced, manufactured, but slowly to give the illusion of it being natural. But after a certain point you pass past the point where the progressive, liberal elements seem naturally "authentic". Like with numbers. 1 doesn't seem a lot, 2 doesn't seem a lot, 3 doesn't seem a lot, by the time you get to 100 the numbers feel big.

It's the jews. I know DA JOOS but ffs, it is them. But not as in the entire jewish race. I don't think it's the rabbis with the funny looking hats that are doing it. There are always people who are degenerate, who deride the tradition of their people, who are inferior genetically, weak, perverted sexually. That includes jews. The jews that are doing that shit are the jews who would lovingly subvert their own people, who are despised by the conservative jews. They hate all traditions. They still stick to their jewery when it's convenient, but only for that - convenience. I don't think they want as much to destroy whites altogether as they want to make whites a weak minority. Because when strong they're too smart to fall for the subversions of jews. The progressive kikes do in fact believe in progressivism, they're themselves often sexual degenerates, race mixers, etc. They have in their mind good intentions, but vile methods. And this is their downfall. They BELIEVE their ideas of a good society are good, and that the methods will be forgiven / ignored / forgotten because in the end they will build a great society. But their intentions are degenerate and dysfunctional, a fact they're oblivious to, and in the end it will be their downfall.
The thing is, I have no power. I try to prepare myself physically and mentally for the troubling current and even more troubling future times. It's difficult, especially considering I have fell for the progressive and degenerate trappings myself throughout my teenage and young adult years, but I try. But it's personal prepearations. I don't believe I can change shit fundamentally. I put my hobbies, emotional support, over the political concerns of mind. And therefore I reject viewing art through political alignment. And again, I do admit it is easier for me to do, as I retain aesthetic interests from my progressive period.

>>200442862

that just all happen to identify as jewish

>>200443110
They use that identity as a cover for their degen shit. They know that polfags will unironically attack the jews from the crimes that they, the real occultists, commit. A lot of them also identify as catholic, muslim, etc. That's why you see a lot of pedos into the church, buddhism, etc. They are just bad people, the only thing that unites them are their rituals. Anything else is pure illusion.

>>200442410
A film doesn't have to represent a common group of people, it can represent a very specific group. Again, overrepresentation of very specific groups in mainstream media is surely DEI (even tho even for that i don't care, as i don't really watch mainstream stuff much in the first place plus if the acting skills of DEI hires are still good and it's not some alteration of history it doesn't matter much)
And specifically I Saw The TV Glow doesn't even have a representation that is super uncommon. There are blacks in suburbs. And Justice Smith isn't even dark black, he is a mulatto, and he is portrayed as such in the film too (his father is white, played by Fred Durst). And even with the tranny subtext, it actually makes a lot of sense as blacks in suburbs are rarely "tough" and most LGBT blacks did not grow up in ghettos, they would probably get killed there.
>>200442701
I think it can. It's not like the usual A24 horror, like Hereditary or Eggers stuff. Those lean much more into the genre. This is more like a drama with vaguely creepy elements. It's structure is very loose and the narrative is told through series of monologues mostly, and even the dialogues are shot and acted in a way where they characters feel like they're talking to the "screen" rather than each other (deliberate, and I thought worked very well). It's not "original" but it's different from other "nu-horror" and has much less mass appeal that those.

>>200441782
Just consider the logic and effects of social media. I think this is what makes our zeitgeist absolutely the most phony.

Why do people keep throwing around the word "over-representation"?
Who should even get to decide how much reprsentation is "too much"?
And why do people only talk about representation wrt race/gender/LGBT shit?
What about the over-reprsentation of rich people, or conventionally attractive people (over 50% of Americans are obese but you wouldn't know it watching their "cinema") or any number of other demographics that appear way more in film than real life?
Why does the right always say that the left makes everything about race/gender when its the right losing their minds every time they see a black woman in a movie and conveniently ignoring the other things I mentioned?

By that logic there are countless popular things we should make way less films about because they rarely happen or haven't happened in a very long time. What a pathetic nonsense argument.

An early color process where you had to shoot on three separate negatives simultaneously (red, green, and blue). These three negatives would then be combined to create the final theatrical prints in true color.

While you're objectively right, at least in my subjective opinion, it doesn't matter. Film making will morph and change and every generation will bitch about the next one.

But to elaborate, I am pretty sure people wrote thesis about capeshit as well. A lot of anime is great but if you write theisis about it, you're overthinking it.
The good anime are by Miyazaki, Takahata, Oshii, Kon and Yuasa.

It's deep to me. You wouldn't get it man, you had to struggle shit like what Akira went through to understand. It is antiwar, but the manga also talks about losing hope in life and giving up to violence because of being a victim of life and violence in itself. I got fucked up by life since I was a kid, and when I read Devilman I got it instantly, a true feeling of being understood, but you wouldn't get it.

Polanski chads rise up. No mention of bittermoon cmooon

Film historian and collector William K. Everson stated that the only surviving print of 4 devils was lost by actress Mary Duncan who had borrowed it from Fox Studios. In the December 1974 issue of “Films in Review,” he explained that Mary Duncan, one of the film’s stars, wanted it to show to a group of friends in Florida. The star was aware that it was a dangerous nitrate print and assumed that Fox had others. She threw the only copy in the ocean, a mistake characterized by Everson as “a monumental blunder to rank with Balaclava, Sarajevo, and the Fall of Babylon as one of history’s blackest moments.”

The closest I know of is to make a chart with films filtered by date (2024), and choose top, popular or whatever filter you want for films. Then, you can start digging page after page of the newest films sorted by whatsoever criteria you want. If it is a new film it will be there, but you're have to search to find it. I think my answer was mostly useless as I didn't read your original post right, but it is what I use.

It does but you have to populate it yourself with either existing lists from imdb/wherever or manually by adding the films yourself. Using IMDB release lists will clog your radarr up with absolute tripe, filling up your limited hardrive space with shit you wouldnt watch in 1000 years and doing it manually is slow and its hard to keep up with semi interesting new releases. Having a release calander to pick and choose from is like a nice middle ground.

>>200450590
Wai is just spammed at this point. His films are more accesible to normies than Iwai's.

I'd say in the next decades we will see the true reach of Iwai in more mainstream productions. His films have a vibe kinda like live action Evangelion, it's just a question of time until the zoomers / gen alpha / whatever discover him and make a "aesthetic" out of his style.

>>200450868
Nah, no one cares about art anymore, it's just a few of us who care about this bullshit. The average normie today is nothing but cattle, they will keep swallowing whatever netflix feeds them.

You're very optimistic to be thinking like this. Mainstream productions are already dead, arthouse is soon to follow.

>>200450941
I was never optimistic. I think normies discovering stuff is terrible. Just waters down the aesthetic and mythos of whatever was "discovered". In music, look at Deftones; in film, look at Possession. Both were kinda popular among the initiated, but respected for their achievements in their respective currents, but when the normies "discovered" them, it all became a mindless spam of "creepy woman" images via Possession and of "sex music vibes" from Deftones. Gatekeeping is natural, but sometimes mistakes happen.

As for mainstream productions being dead, I guess in a way they do. The Incredibles 2 sucked compared to the first one, but not by that big of a difference as to make Incredibles 2 unenjoyable. As for arthouse being dead, it maybe always was, as arthouse has by default always been a honeypot for pseuds, both directors and fans, and so, the quality in film, demand and review / distribution has catered many times to garbage without artistic merit.

>>200450590

They almost had a masterpiece on their hands but had to ruin it with scenes from the sequences from a psychiatric ward which were unengaging, meandering, emotionally, texturally void and plainly in bad taste. Everything else was incredible. Terrifying, but you can't look away. Surprisingly comedic at points. Revelatory. Idk how many more epithets can I come up with. I was floored. It's so frustrating that they thought they had something with those demented grannies scenes. It could've been so easily cut. Maybe they could've made a separate film about psychiatric wards and psychiatric hospitals where these scenes would get properly contextualised.

As well as the Decameron and Arabian Nights.

after watching Flanders and The Empire back to back (Flanders was a rewatch, my favorite Dumont, it's just perfectly refined) i'm in such a weird feeling
it's kinda uncanny, you can see that despite so many elements changing the fundamentals are still in place, it's still very much Dumont
i think the main differences would be the camera moving much more often than before, even in dialogue scenes camera often pans, closer to the character, as in getting closer to their face and the use of sountrack, bombastic classical music with some electronic tracks in there too
his films also have been very very blue for a long time already, but without it muting other colors, it's not just a "Ridley Scott blue filter", he clearly puts effort into color grading
i think the first time Dumont used a soundtrack was in Hadewjich, and that also was the first film of his which was very noticeably bluer, and with that specific light blue tint, i think that had some pans onto the face too, but i think i noticed it first later, in Camille Claudel
it was a big thing in France, i think there were at least three scenes where the camera was slowly panning onto Seydoux's face

>>200446974
I don't even consider them human. If a person as much as mentions watching tranime I instantly lose interest in whatever they have to say and or dismiss whatever opinions they have. Same goes for people that were filtered by Citizen Kane. In fact, the latter is a better lithmus test of whether a person is worth your attention or not; it's understandable that many were misguided into watching tranime by internet culture in their youth, doing that as an adult is inexcusable however, even if they do it by the inertia of consumer habit.

>>200457284
Yes fundamentals are still in place >>200456772. That's why even in France he had to go to the French countryside for an unrelated episode because his idea of transcendence is fields in the French countryside.
As far as the other elements in his films go often time he just pushes the extremes he has in his other films to the opposite direction like L'Humanite anf Coincoin to try and go for the opposite mood like comedy in the latter. The issue with this approach is that already some of his serious films like Flanders can be funny due to their intense misery and self seriousness which loops into absurdity and comedy, at least for me in that case. His later films can then become absolute clusterfucks in tone. L'Empire being the prime example.

>Bruno Dumont has set up his next film.

Production is expected to begin this year, the film will follow the “rivalry between two gangs of kids, a blend of locals and summer visitors, who compete in the perilous game of cliff jumping.”
i'm guessing that the French government decided to scale down his budgets after the newest whatever the fuck that was movie
also he decided to relocate to the south this time, i'm guessing the entire village he cast in Empire saw the film and now wants to tear him apart limb by limb so he had to flee

>>200468077
Towne is alive? Thought that boomer had croaked long ago.

>>200468195
He's not even a boomer, he's older than that. Which makes me even more surprised.

>>200468077
Fincher is a vile hack

HEY

peeping tom is good

mike leigh is just le quirky exaggerated cockney woman

>>200455985
Persona was good on a technical level, but the dialogue and themes sucked. 7/10.

Is there anything special about Joel Coen's Macbeth?

>>200468681
it's got funky cinematography and set design I guess

>>200468430
NTA, but Peeping Tom is highly overrated. It isn't bad, but it also isn't as good as people make it to be. 7/10.

>>200445050
To be fair, rich/attractive people at least serve a narrative/aesthetic purpose.

Does /tv/ have an argument for why I Saw the TV Glow was bad outside of “it’s woke”? As far as production, execution and performance, it’s easily the top 3 of this year.

can you please help me know the names of the Japanese movies in this video?

>it’s easily the top 3 of this year.
Why?

>>200469249
It's very good. Don't expect honest discussion here though.

>>200469323
Someone in the comments already named a ton of them when replying to another comment. Which ones are you still looking for?

>>200469329
I loved the lighting, the eerie feeling of the movie and how the actors nailed the average /r9k/ poster perfectly.

Might be my #2 movie so far only behind Cabrini.

>>200469329
There haven't been 3 films better than it this year.

>>200469438
The lead actor and the forced fake voice he put on pretty much ruined the entire film for me. Baffling casting. Didn't think much of the lighting, it was okay I suppose.

>>200469445
wow

>>200469496
>The lead actor and the forced fake voice he put on
I've met autists who talk exactly like that.

>>200469578
Okay, I haven't. Thought it was very distracting and obviously put on.

>>200469249
>As far as production, execution and performance, it’s easily the top 3 of this year.
Watch more films.

Good lord, someone hit over the head with something heavy.

>>200469991
What are your top 5 of the year?

>>200469249
Production-wise it looks like a Netflix show. It doesn't have much going for it besides the tranny allegory, and I don't see why films shouldn't be criticized for their content. In an autist's world where only "production quality" matters, Avatar: The Way of Water is the greatest film ever made. And Justice Smith was shit casting. He can't act.

>>200470086
Even Challengers was better than that gimmicky garbage.

>>200470143
What are the other 4?

>>200470203
You said top 3.
Through the Graves the Wind is Blowing
Black Tea
Challengers
Empire
Kung Fu Panda 4
All better

>>200470306
>You said top 3.
You should probably learn to read before you get into arguments.

>>200470356
NTA, but

You're wrong, anon.

>>200471016
>NTA, but
Ironic since those are different posters as well, retarded bitch.

>>200470356
>it is top 3
>it is not
>NAME YOUR TOP 5
Kek, mmmmmuuhhh different poster. Retard.

i talked about why i liked the film in the previous thread
but average /tv/cel obviously is not interested in any arguments other than woke
but we already had this discussion i the previous thread and at the start of this one
