Mistah mistah unununun
>>216360875Stop giving him (You)s, man.
It's all about the market, movies are largely culturally irrelevant now. Sex scenes are a leftover from when that shit sold.
Sex scenes usually exist to press some little buttons in your brain that make you happy for seeing naked people, that is, hardly have any substance at all and are very lowbrow. Not that all of them are inherently that, but c´mon, we all now that most of them are. It is not even limited to european films mind youAlso, sex is kind of a banal thing to be given such importance in film most of the time, so I don´t really buy the "it's reality bro". Yeah, it is, but there is so much more to reality than that, a lot of which is more interesting to be explored that people fucking
>>216361294what do u expect from chosen people? they pervert it, like everything.
>>216361045I will, it's just that it is infuriating you know.
what is the purpose of sex scenes? It’s not like they’re impressive of visually intriguing shots, they’re also not really not necessary because you can just imply they’ve banged. They only exist for women and why should I care what women want in movies? Have you seen the types of movies women enjoy?
>>216360875Fuck off retard
>>216360875Rather honest discussion than waifufag circlejerk
i confess i'm still waiting on the western europe chart from chartanon...

>>216362243No way, in this era of corporate control it's more important than ever to archive and collect, even total garbage dogshit films like Killing Them Softly and Ex Machina
>>216362215>You fuck off faggot, this retard is ruining every thread.and the reason for that is people like you keep talking to him. imma tell you a secret, retard, the more you talk to a schizo the more he stays

https://www.nationalreview.com/2025/12/dracula-reimagined-as-socialist-trauma/>Radu Jude puts a stake through diabolical politics.>Our era’s most politically alert filmmaker, Radu Jude of Romania, is known for wild, incisive parodies about the debased habits of societies almost recovering from totalitarianism; he satirizes the folklore of public desperation. Jude’s latest vaudeville, Dracula, runs 170 minutes to catch up with the latest disarray and panic. Approaching the Dracula legend differently than Guillermo del Toro does in his juvenile horror film Frankenstein, it explores the vampire legend as part of Romania’s history, cleverly relating it to Millennial pessimism. It’s a horror comedy about rising dread as political actors worldwide exhibit mankind’s most diabolical behavior.>Our era’s most politically alert filmmaker, Radu Jude of Romania, is known for wild, incisive parodies about the debased habits of societies almost recovering from totalitarianism; he satirizes the folklore of public desperation.

>>216360383>Punt a cunt edition>>QotD>Favourite /film/ic depiction of a kick?I happen to be into this, and a certain community about it thinks that it's possible that Margot Robbie is secretly into it.
>>216363190>the devil, probablyAre we serious
>>216360671Any robot that dances at me is getting smashed.
>>216362991*smooch*
>>216363170I finished it and it was quite the wild ride
>>216362890What an adorable liar.
Man, the "lensed" faggot is STILL here?
Since Shirley MacLaine is the proto-snood, that makes Macha Meril the French proto-snood.
You know what's weird, people that want to be seen as le epic film connoisseurs with superior intelligent taste are the ones with pretentious sharthouse films on their top 10 lists, meanwhile actually acclaimed directors have just random films they love on their listWhy is that
>>216364074most film directors dont watch films, they make filmsonly exception are those who started as critics like Godard or Bogdanovich or as nerds like Tarantino
>>216364105>bogdanovich'e bought ze criterion? doomp it
>>216364105those directors who start in the theatre are in it for the girls like Ingmar Bergmanthose who started as editors are control freaks like David Leanwhat else?
>>216364074The more you watch, the more influence you get, most directors don't watch movies, there's a very popular video of Orson Wells taking about this. He said something like the more virgin your eyes are the better, he's talking about directors no regular people.
>>216364074>actually acclaimed directors have just random films they love on their listJust like me.
Holy shit bros, Freddy Got Fingered and Bad Boy Bubby are two totally separate moviesFor some reason I conflated them in my mind
uhmmm ok
>>216364394uhmmm, you're chinese
so random but ok, I guess
>>216363755cute nose
>>216364449Facts!
wha t the fuck is the film Don Draper goes to see in Mad Men S2E3? is it a Duras? I'm sure it's not a Resnais
>>216364730Only caught the tail end of the ep just now during a rewatch on Stories by AMC channel. I was wondering also so I googled E.G. Marshall (the recognizable actor in the clip they watch in the conference room) and scrolled down to the early 60's and there's an episode of a series called The Defenders titled The Benefactor, agreeing with this episode title.https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0557241/
>>216364844bump
Fell asleep halfway through an Ozu last night…. Chishu Ryu is my old dad, his presence comforts me. >>216360669>Mikey and CharlieA great phantom collaboration, like how Dario Argento and Isabelle Huppert were announced to make his next movie that’s obviously not gonna happen…
>>216363243Elaborate?
>>216365450Low blows on women are very uncommon in media. Sure, you can probably remember a couple ones even if you've never really thought about it before, but media, especially western media, has always shied away from this, probably because it's seen as much more inappropriate and/or sexual, as opposed to a ballbust on a guy, which is such a staple of fight scenes and comedy that no one bats an eye at it. But women being kicked in the pussy or otherwise hurt in a spicy kind of way is seen as much more scandalous and therefore rare.So if you take some actress at random, then it happened to her on screen either 0 times (most commonly) or 1 time.But Margot Robbie has at least 3 instances ( + at least 1 hit in the breasts), two of which in films where she had considerable sway due to star power and one she even produced (so she *could* say no or otherwise have a say in what she wanted or wanted not to happen). Some people think that Margot might be into sexualized violence/danger.
>>216364146those that started in commercials are just slophounds like ridley scott
Sir Ridley consistently filtering /film/fags is always funny.
>>216365629>and then two men... le duellol
The lowercase tranny doesn’t have the artistic sensibility to appreciate The Duellists. Sad!
>>216365706>what if there was a big sexy handsome gladiator and he faces the emperor of rome and... they le duellmfao
>>216365723Sounds awesome, I love sexy gladiator hunks. Is he shirtless?
>>216365819hes in leather suspenders like a sexy classical era fireman
>>216365636Shh tranny, be quiet.
>>216365856>how dare you lay my babby's first director bare for all to see tranny! tranny! you're a tranny!what if two men rape the same woman and then 2 and a half hours later they... le duel?
>>216363717that's common cinematic lingo. it's not just me, dingo, that says it
Any other kinographers similar to Jean-Claude Rousseau?
>>216365938Jean-Claude Van Damme comes to mind
