The greatest film of the last 100 years in my opinion is Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. This should have the reputation that Citizen Kane does, and even came out two years before it.The rest of the list:Battleship PotemkinShadowsBreathlessGodzilla vs MechagodzillaJawsE.T., the Extra TerrestrialClose Encounters of the Third KindStar WarsTronFitzcarraldoWho Framed Roger Rabbit?Toy StoryThe Lord of the Rings: The Two TowersStar Wars Episode II: Attack of the ClonesThe Polar ExpressInland EmpireI am probably the only actual film historian on /film/ (I have done several audio commentaries including on early Gaumont releases). The live action canon gravely underrates the history of animation and believes it to be a subset of cinema, hence, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs lack of presence on Sight & Sound.You would be gravely mistaken if you believe animation is for babies. Even a film like Who Frames Roger Rabbit (this would land in my top 25) is more important than films like Citizen Kane and The Godfather. Then there is Vertigo and 2001, films that are only important due to the John Whitney and Douglas Trumbull special effects, but then even Silent Running is more important in that regard.Sometimes I wonder how Eisenstein would have reacted if he lived to see films like Tron or Nintendo Entertainment System videogames like Metroid, Boy and His Blob and Myst, which present a simulation with free will.>>214720654If it's not Snow White, then what can it possibly be? Snow White does so many things at once.>invents a new artform and perfects it at the same time>mass entertainment and commercial success>critically acclaimed>>214720201I am convinced that George Lucas browses /film/ with all of the little homages to classic golden age cinema in Star Wars Attack of the Clones. It is a film noir melodrama of the likes that used to star Humphrey Bogart. George Lucas is genuinely too intelligent for the masses.

1/10 thread so far.
10/1 thread so far.
my favorite film is a cartoon for babies and my other favorites are steven spielberg movies for babies and if you disagree you don't understand cinema
>>214721732The previous time when I visited this thread I recall there was some weird white female asian male race mixing conversation going on. You guys aren't making the best impression lately.
I’m neutral in this fight. But for my money… The best Spielberg movies are probably Hook and Temple of Doom
>>214721890If you don't watch Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs with your jaw on the floor you are a platfag who doesn't understand its significance. There were so many detailed techniques in that movie that even now 50 years later animators are baffled by its quality.
>>214721960What exactly was discussed? Be specific.
We're all platfags here
>>214721960>weird white female asian male race mixingWhat's weird about that?
>>214721242Sometimes I think about Sergei Eisenstein, and I cry. I just weep imagining what he would be thinking right now about Star Wars and Disney cartoons.
>>214722118Absolutely nothing. It’s the only acceptable race mix.
>>214721964>The best Spielberg movies are probably Hook and Temple of DoomHook is an incredible feat of filmmaking. After that and Empire of the Sun he became a fucking company. His MO changed to doing them as quickly as possible, in part because he knew that a rushed Spielberg film was no worse.
Sometimes I think about Steven Spielberg, and I cry. I just weep because I remember that kike is still alive and will never pay for his crimes
>>214722395>will never pay for his crimesAnd do you have any evidence for these so-called crimes?

>>214724248I am parodying letterboxd users how they watch a film, think up of a one line meme and then run to letterboxd to euphorically post the meme and get 1000s of votes. And yes, they do post on /film/. Several youtube celebrities get their ideas on /film/ and post it on youtube and letterboxd for clout. I have seen it over and over again, and they should be mocked for how they dumbed down the artistic medium of cinema into a social media fad.
We're all making fun of brechtians here.

>>214724340I started noticing it during the Deadpool and Wolverine review period, people were directly quoting /tv/ threads that were made ironically but they were taking it as a fact and spreading it on letterboxd as if they came up with it. After that, YouTubers like Jahns and Stuckmann started picking it up and even Kermode mentioned it. All of it originated on /tv/. This happens on /film/ too with the Ethan Cohen Criterion channel as well. You will see a film discussed here and then Ethan Cohen will post a video about the exact same film.

>>214724450>Mogs Eisenstein.Bullshit. Eisenstein actually tells a story and he doesn't care if film cross-over with literature or theater. All of these (((experiments))) only amount to fringe museum pieces.
>>214724541You retarded asshat, the history of cinema is synonymous with the history of special effects, see George freakin' Melies. These are the important films that matter and evolve the medium of cinema, not LE SLOW ANTONIONI RESNAIS MUSEUM PIECE. >when criterionfags realize cinema is synonymous with vaudeville not european paintings and all their films will be forgotten in favor of a good special effects extravaganza like Twister
>>214724541>>214724629That is me by the way arguing with myself, I am now only talking to myself. This thread is dead btw. 95 % of posts here are me samefagging. Time to go get a Wendy's chocolate frosty.
>>214724561MWaMC is a visual and sonic pleasure that doesn't age. Eisenstein's films are ugly and dry.

>>214725612i watched holiday 1938 today. the chemistry between grant and hepburn made it worthwhile. although, i find the act of an entire hollywood film put on to shape public opinion of the perception on influential people who are in the corporate and or public sector by humanizing them as distasteful and unappealing. a better scewball comedy which stars the same actors was released the same year under the title bringing up baby. im now watching an anime call clevatess. it's nothing special, a run of the mill production that's seeped in dark fantasy.>>214726305>appeal to authority

>>214732675>>214732724>>214732750>>214733753Prepare for the canon as we know it to change now that we are past the 20th century, all your Citizen Kane, Vertigo, and 2001 will morph into Tron, Star Wars, Blade Runner, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Wizard of Oz, and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.Now that we have hindsight, we know that the history of special effects is the history of cinema. The critics of the 20th century made a fatal mistake. They came to believe that cinema is akin to the European painting tradition, they expected cinema to be full of esoteric meaning and cultural importance. The truth is that a special effects extravaganza like Twister is more historically important than The Godfather.Yes, even Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin movies are high art compared to a pretentious Orson Welles Shakespeare adaptation.
>>214727521We don't call a film playing with an audio commentary its own film. We consider film separate. Hmm... what is that. Shouldn't a visual film playing with a commentary soundtrack be an entire different film? Yet it is considered the same movie. Curious. Could it be that is because visuals and special effects constitute the definition of a film, not the writing of it?

Finally watched the much hyped Three Colors: Red. For me it's the weakest movie of the trilogy, but still is a great movie. Bleu is unmatchable, though; maybe the best Kieslowski film overall and maybe the best film of the 90s. 3.5/5.

>>214754797Nah man, not the Kendrick quote :skull emoji:
Going to watch "Old Cat" (1992) tonight.
so I got this never before ripped edition that came with 3 audio tracks. I've been quiet lately because I'm re-writing the entire subtitle. But worse than that... there are black frames connecting the film together and they are i-frames and I'm having trouble merging the files without obstruction and I'm about to pull my hair out. I'm starting from ground zero now after 1 day wasted trying to fiddle with trimming the vob file (nigger fucking black frame is the i-frame that cucks me if you don't trim on an i-frame there a frame freeze/delay) fuck b frames fuck niggers
>>214755395does it even look any better than the other DVD
>>214755395This nigga drinking coke on a glass lol
>>214755486No it appears to be the same rip, however instead of having a subtitle it has a 2.0 track. 5.1 track and DTS track. So I'm happy about that. the 2.0 track is key for headphonephiles.
>>214755511>coke on a glassgood english saar
>>214755913good enough
So, what are you ns watching tonight.
>>214756219ELLIOT COEN STEALS VIDEO IDEAS FROM /FILM/ ELLIOT COEN IS A NO GOOD THIEF
>>214756431Too schizo of a theory for me. So, what are you watching, n?
>challenge myself to watch on average 1 film a day for the year (aka 365 films)>currently at 280>starting to take its tollNever do this, people
>>214756784I watched over 800 films last year. This year I'm currently only at 370.
>>214756836You clearly don't read or play games, or do anything else with your time.
>>214756784That's a fairly small sized amount of films to watch in a year, I'd say. Part of why movies are easy to watch is because you can do other things. I wouldn't want to watch one film a day, but it would be fairly easy to do so.
>>214756918>Part of why movies are easy to watch is because you can do other thingsYou're not watching a film unless you are giving it your full attention.
>>214756887I do read, but only one or two books a month. I don't play games. This year I've watched a lot less because I see my girlfriend 2-3 times a week. Last year I was single.
>>214756988Damn, you've got a girlfriend? how does she deal with all your autism.
>>214757368Well, let's say I entered into my abuse era. She vill watch the film; she vill not leave the house; she vill not call the cops.
what are costaricanon thoughts on this bluntography?
>>214757368Whatever time I spend watching joints, she spends about as much (if not more) reading. I unironically have more social contacts than what she has.>>214757499Ha-ha.
I'm watching Potempkin, it's boring. Why is this #10 all time on sight & sound again? Do critics just repeat films that they think they're supposed to like
>>214757578I think it's his worst film by far.I dislike the magical realism angle and also think the pacing is incredibly slow when compared to his other spliffs. For me it's a 2.5/5, but I think it's still a good film, just not for me.
>>214757771>Do critics just repeat films that they think they're supposed to likeYes; they are afraid of being criticized for voicing their true opinions and questioning the canon. Same reason why shit like Man With a Movie Camera gets glazed for no reason when it's literally only a tech demo.
We're in need of a great debate about the future.
>>214757836I thought it was visually outstanding, but void at the same time. Couldn't dig it.>>214757896Sure enough.
>>214757868I guarantee that no one sits down and watches these movies, we know damn well they are putting on the incredible hulk before they put on these 'le important klassix'
Dovzhenko's Earth mogs all the other sovietkinos... maybe that's why they demonized it back then, they were just jealous.
>>214757932I had that same feeling. I don't know why he missed the mark on that film, but it is just like that. It lacks punch.>>214757941I think they watch them then force themselves to pretend they're good because they're "important works of art". Like, surrealism was a very important vanguard movement within art, yet Dalí's works were mostly mediocre in a lot of ways, but still, the general public won't criticize his work because they don't have the technical knowledge available to really dissect why he sucks and, -most importantly-, how he sucks. In the end, I believe his paintings sell for manipulation of the market via speculation and money laundering, and something similar occurs in kino, with big stablished names being the backbones supporting the big film critics, the scholars and even the film publishing market in a lot of occasions. If you criticize Man With a Movie Camera you're essentially criticizing everyone that ever said something good about that film for dishonest purposes, and so there is a market for building artificial hype over mid kino, mid music, and mid art. We live in a world of fakes.As a novelty, take a look at pic rel, a Dalí engraving from his later era. Essentially, this kind of shit explains his whole career: mediocre technique, bland ass colors and his trademark overuse of the one point perspective. Check more of his paintings / drawings and you will find he was extremely repetitive and basic in all of his motives and his technical abilities were very limited. His promotion by General Franco is a testament to what he was: a state puppet, a fake "painter", and a very gifted PR man with nothing to say in his works. A lot of times, the same happens in kino; it's not about what you do, but who you know and which dicks you suck.I have to say though, he was an excellent writer.
Cucksta wall of text aside, I think Rene Clair's Entr'acte is great.
>>214759161Sad that you can't read.

>>214757868>Man With a Movie Camera gets glazed for no reason when it's literally only a tech demo.It's a work of cinematic poetry and bliss. It goes:1. The Lumiere Brothers2. George Melies3. D.W. Griffith4. Eisenstein5. Walt Disney

>>214759364Not using the brain kills the brain.>>214759372I know it's important historically, but as a film in 2025, it falls flat. It's just not very entertaining, visually aesthetic or stimulating on an intellectual level.
dude I don't have time to watch all the subtitle slop from irrelevant countries. I watched every single film in the various 1001 Movies You Must Watch editions - including hundreds from Europe. Fellini, Bergman, Bunuel, Tarkovsky, Antonioni. Those are the films most associated with European Cinema. They're also the ones that will be remembered. FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
>>214759418Make it a Claudia Cardinale edition
