>>215103719>>215103980the Western Europe chart is still in progress. I've been very busy IRL, so I haven't had much time to work on it. that plus the new Android update for Letterboxd has made my research process much more tedious because I can't use the app and the mobile browser experience isn't much better, so that's kind of killed my enthusiasm. also, grouping France, Germany, and the UK all together was probably a bad idea. this chart will be massive. I'll still get it done, and the rest of the regions, but I'm not going to be doing North America next as was originally planned. I'll do either Central or South America next followed by the Caribbean because they should all be smaller
/film/ fuckery aside, I just got word the new Queen Kelly restoration is finally out. Is it on KG yet?
>>215108301did they find more of the film? the version I watched years ago was incomplete
Just let it go bruh ...it's over
Honestly I can't imagine being the "we're all here" guy.Having to bump the thread every 40 minutes, every day, 24/7, like that bunker guy from Lost.How nolife can you be?
>>215108530You say that but the last thread archived early.
We're all nolifers here.
>>215108530I used to be that kinda guy in the early days of /film/, but I would always try to either ask a question or post a still/webm from a film instead of just blindly bumping. I don't care that much anymore though, and will just let the thread die if there is no engagement. plus his "we're all here" posts just makes me want to intentionally kill the threads to spite him
what's the /film/ consensus on cairo station? i thought it was stylistically a Hollywood Pre-Code melodrama, with more modern camera techniques. Definitely worth watching. watching adieu bonaparte next

Watching bad movies can even be fun. But nothing beats a good movie. Watching De Palma's old movies, and they're all bangers. I can't understand most of the criticism levelled at him.
I watched Viy last night it was very cool. You guys probably don't have cool niche taste like me.
you think one year of watching De Palma flicks entitles you to plow the riches of /film/'s Emersonian mind?
>>215111119What the heck am I looking at?
>>215103563I was watching Sisters and I kept wondering if Carrie wasn't one thing. What would have become of De Palma's career if Carrie had flopped and some of his more experimental projects had succeeded? Because he kind of got pigeonholed into genre cinema. Not that he doesn't love genre cinema. But Sisters felt more like French New Wave than Hollywood.
>>215111146>What the heck am I looking at?I reserve my time for someone who can THINK

of course, the best comic based on a Coppola film still is
First film that comes to mind when you hear "controlled chaos"?
>>215111248From New Hollywood, guys. Coppola was by far the most pretentious, or at least the most vocal about it. I remember him trashing The Godfather and Dracula in the audio commentaries.
>>215111341Funnily enough, Apocalypse Now
>>215111341the dark knight rises
>>215111062>>215111188Based. More De Palma discussion please.
I did not expect this to veer into a 'The Day the Earth Stood Still' type moral of the story where humanity is destroyed because we failed to rise above our nature. But on what basis is this decision really made? The main character's cruelty? They openly admitted to making his life hell until he fucking snapped. What can anyone really expect?Any class reading is kinda undercut, because the whole idea of the aliens doing shitty stuff to us is justified by the idea they are trying to cure us of genetic defects that make us cruel. I wonder how the American remake will handle that.While I expect that the OG film will remain stylistically superior to the remake, I really do think the thematic points of the story can be cleaned up a lot. As cringe as it is how Hollywood does these garden variety eat the rich films, I really feel this story almost begs for a more class oriented message.
Endtroducing...
>>215111818Always loved the Prince of Darkness (1987) sample in that
>>215111790They're going to make the movie about race. Since Hollywood doesn't know how to make movies about poor people. It's interesting that early Hollywood was all about that.
>>215111929How would it be about race? Everyone in it is white, and from what I can tell, the upcoming movie is really about Plemons vs Stone.
>>215111983I didn't know about that movie. Now, are they going to portray aliens as Western deities? Since in the OG they are based on Eastern deities.
>>215112062This alien shit be kinda lit.

>>215116846What do you mean by settle on pic rel? Anyways, I just got over /film/.I don't need it anymore for either commentary, laughs or learning about cinema, because I feel I am already good enough with what I know about kino and this general became complete shit due to the three faggots that fancy themselves the lords of 4chan.

This Matroska video is brought to you by The Fag Puffin', Ass Pettin', Bobby Blockin', Godard Gobblin' Raped Revolutionary of /film/Thou Shalt Not Kill (1961)At the end of World War II, a French pacifist is arrested for refusing to fight. In prison, he befriends a German priest arrested for murder of a French Resistance fighter. They discuss morality, obedience, and religion.The French government refused to help financing the movie because of its pacifist anti-war message, since France was at the time heavily involved in the bloody Algerian War of independence. The budget was finally secured when the Yugoslavian government agreed to pitch in. The movie premiered at the 1961 Venice Film Festival as a Yugoslavian entry, since the French government still wanted nothing to do with it and eventually banned the release of the film in France until 1963, a year after the Algerian War had ended. The French press gave the movie mostly poor reviews.https://gofile.io/d/dL2Pzq

The talent behind Bela Tarr just won the Nobel Prize for Literature
>>215122479is this an "The Artist (Formerly Known as Prince)" situation or something
>>215122497No. László Krasznahorkai the guy Tarr collaborates with on almost every movie
These movies are Nobel Prize caliber
>>215122479continuing a fine tradition of awarding the Nobel to drek-producers. i do love War and War though
>>215122663are there other Nobel prize winners who also wrote screenplays?
LMAO imagine if England was real
>>215111081I watched it last night too, what a coincidence. It was described as "horror" but it's actually a dark comedy. I should've known since it's based on a short story by Gogol. Pretty nice watch.
>>215122760lots, from the top of my head:Peter HandkeKazuo IshiguroDario FoHemingwayFaulknerJose SaramagoMario Vargas LlosaI think Camus did write some movie adaptation of his plays
>>215122864William Golding, García Márquez, Sartre, Eugene O'Neill, that korean woman who won last year, Camilo José Cela, Harold Pinter...

there was a french ? film about a guy using an old revolver to kill his coworkers/bossHe hypes himself up in the woods, then drives to the house of one of them, calls him outside and, as the coworker leans into the window, the guy shoots him point blank and hurts his hand due to recoil.Then he goes shopping and stares at a high precision rifle at a gun store.Early 00's? The guy looked like Alfred Molina. Been trying to find it for ages.
>>215128367The Ax directed by Costa-Garvas, i think the victim in the scene you're describing was a woman.It's based on a book which this year has been also adapted into a movie by Park Chan Wook - No Other Choice.
Finna watch the Amores perros restoration at the Plex today; last watched it when I was 10 years old. I hate hyperlink cinema a la Tarantino. Will it suck? Will it be good? God only knows.

>>215128963Man from London was the only repetitive one. Did he filter his fucking self with turino horse?
>>215133511Vampyr is a classic, but you've seen it. Check out I Walked With a Zombie, Dementia or The Old Dark House.
>>215129903Vista vision is just the new gimmick. It really means nothing because filmmakers don’t use technicolor anymore so it is an absolute worthless enterprise but modern film workers like Paul Tom Anderson don’t seem to understand film aesthetic and still just leave it all to the DoP who lights it for the producer.
>>215130633>>215130666All of them nah. None of them understand film aesthetic. Vv needs technicolor or else the effect is worthless. It’s like running chaos turbo only trying to rely on a BLS without a Chaos Sorc or two.
>>215133511The 16mm for this is for sale on eBay just fyi
>>215133893What is even the VistaVision "effect"? I noticed Poor Things looked really pretty in the Plex, but I don't even know if that film used VistaVision or nah haha>Chaos TurboI think running at least 2 Sorcs is necessary for turbo, but for others decks like warriors 1 BLS without Sorcs is optimal.
>>215130979/film/ is leaking...
Does anyone else agree that the ending of Good Time is a pretty bad one for Nick?Connie was destructive, and any plan to take charge of Nick long term was probably unrealistic.Yet, I think it is clear the situation Nick finds himself in the end may even be worse. He is treated like a baby retard not capable of anything, while Connie always treated him like a real person. One could even view his reasoning to bring Nick on the heist is to boost Nick's self-esteem by including him, as insane as it sounds. Pattinson makes a strong statement to Nick that he couldn't have done it without him.
>>215123591Unironically yes
Any of you fucks have watched Tokyo Trash Baby? Seems pretty interesting based on the plot. It's about a woman stalking a motherfucker and imagining his personality based on his trash.

>>215134916Stop choking on dick for one second, goddamn.
>>215134347Poor Things looked pretty because the cinematography was very heavy on the lighting which is always nice too bad the film itself is mediocre everywhere else.I was talking specifically about chaos turbo. Plenty of decks don’t even need BLS I am just saying why play chaos turbo without sorcs, that is the same as VV without TC
>>215134935I think Poor Things was good. Yeah, I know, I was just commenting on the fact that some decks like BLS only.

Which gialli are your favourites?
i believe a creator should use certain tools to make things interestingthe absense of elements can be very powerfull than the presense ofthemfor example when nolan uses no sound or music in interstellar explosion it makes the scene more powerfull than other movies with lots of explosions noise etc. same deal when in memento he is removing the color to make an impact compared to the color scenesgenerally the idea of long slow takes without too many cuts can work and be powerfull in certain cases. less can be more when u want to expose the reality or the inner world of the protagonist. it can elevate tension and the suspencewhat i cant stand is a creator to use such tricks for absolutely no particular reason just to provoke or just cauze he canjust cauze the mainstream system of holywood wants more and more and the movies strive for more cuts more dialog more sound and more lightning doesnt mean its nececery a bad thing. people like aggelopoylos and i assume this movie as well decide to take a different route just to be antiestablishment. people that act like autistic cauze directors dont want to force the act like in theatre. cameras that are stable for 15 mins cauze noone wants to bother to cut useless things out. sure i dont like most marvel crap as well and i am tired of all these effects and mindless acting and cuts but the idea that i am gonna make a movie that is the opposite isnt enough. just becauze u are negative about the establishment and remove all the establishment elements doesnt provide something positive. the absense of something in this case leaves just nothing

I just take that kind of stuff to seriously and can't enjoy it as a comedy, like where's the funny? Just remove the dark comedy aspect and play it straight, not tongue in cheek, make the film a serious, cautionary folk-horror. Otherwise the message gets obscured by the cartoon-like end result.
