new Literally Me just dropped
I keep forgetting that /tv/ is too lazy to see movies in theaters and too poor to buy movie tickets
>>217177022Nobody cares about this movie.
>>217177102I care about it though
>>217176602>>217177022I see Chalamet, I avoid it. Simple as.
>>217176602I identify more with Dion personally, barring him being an ugly fatass.>>217177102This movie hasn't even been out for three weeks. It's already the third highest grossing thing A24 has ever released and is on track to handily beat the shitpile that was EEAO for first, not to mention it's only been released in the UK so far abroad and Europe has always had a hard-on for Timmy (literally in Luca Guadagnino's case).Likewise, I feel like Japs and Chinks will really like this for some reason, I have an inkling.
>>217176602Looks like shitty oscarbait
>>217177400>shitty oscarbaitThat's OBAA, Marty is seriously one of the only megakino American movies released in the past decade or so.
>>217177102This isn't a Marvel movie you retard. Release strategy for A24 films is markedly different from other Hollywood fare.
>>217177449>shitting your pants and crying about marvel because nobody wants to watch your pretentious ping pong film /film/cucks… not like this…
>>217177464>MarvelRemind me how every Marvel movie released last year performed kek
>>217177400All Oscar movies with a high budget fail. Industry bait with the cast has a higher street value.
>WAHHHHHHHH MY PING PONG MOVIE IS HECKING FLOPPING HOW COULD MARVEL DO THIS TO ME AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I dont like biopicsEspecially ones with tiniggee chalafag
>>217177685>I dont like biopicsThis movie is not a biopic, you're thinking of the Bob Dildo movie
>>217177472namefag melty
>>217177392If you're going to use an unnecessary acronym at least get it right
>>217177022What kind of absolute fucking faggot would want to watch that?
>>217177102>>217177392yeah people spread weird ass bullshit about this film, especially sinners fans
>>217177339That's what he said, that nobody cares about the movie.
>>217176602>This conniving jew is literally me!
is timothee chalamet the only zoomer actor that's actually good at acting and cares about the art du cinema?
>>217179421>is timothee chalamet the only zoomer actor that's actually good at acting and cares about the art du cinema?Mikey Madison (also a Russian Jew) seems to, she's just been in almost nothing apart from Anora since Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. While I'm not a fan at all of Sean Baker or that movie she was really fantastic in that film and really elevated the shit material.
Josh keeps making the same movie and I like it every time.
>>217179706reddit ass post
>>2171794211995 is millennial
>>217176602cute jewish boi
>>217177102A24 sold their international distribution rights, which means they don't have to care about theatre cut or marketing. For domestic, they have 700 theaters less than the usual wide release with zero premium formats so they have bigger domestic cut. And their marketing is just the jacket, the blimp and esdeekid remix. In short, the 2.5x multiplier doesn't apply to them.
>>217177022>too lazy to see movies in theaters and too poor to buy movie ticketsIt's just a very very very Jewish looking movie
1. Is it good?2. Is it woke?
>>217176602no, never
>>217180123You can't handle them anyway
>>217176602I'm not a rat-faced jew thoughbeit

>>217177400Haven't seen it yet but it's by the guy who made uncut gems, which seems promising. I'm just desperate for a decent movie in theaters. I love the kinoplex but nothing good is coming out.
>>217178505Sinners is disgusting Jewish cunnilingus propaganda
>>217176602The only person who I know IRL who wanted to see this slop is literally a kike LOL.
It's an ugly nasty jewish movie.Marty never practices or grows through ping pong.Marty never sacrifices anything of himself to become a better person or player.Marty exploits and rips off everybody around himself without real consequence.Ugly jewish nihilism.It's just an ugly exercise in ethnic jewish narcissism, going to great lengths to compete with Japan in a competitive post-ww2 ethnic struggle session.>we suffered more than anybody>and we resent that you saved us
>>217177102Good.
>>217180534>kike bootlickerfigures
>>217177022unironically true, whenever something drops on streaming/becomes easily piratable is when /tv/ actually starts talking about a movie if it's notable at all. This is also likely why there's so many threads about box office performance for new releases rather than the content of the movies themselves, since you don't need to have seen the movies to talk about box office numbers.
>>217177022>>217180934Imagine paying to watch this slop. The funniest part is that you're retarded leftists that just can't stop consooooming propaganda directly from some of the biggest capital owners on earth.
>>217180737>it exposes the nature of JewsSounds kind of based to me.
>>217180934yeah, it's basically useless trying to discuss anything. /tv/ also has this recurring issue of judging shows/movies intensely without having ever watched any of it, so even when you try and discuss something in good faith, you get drowned in shit. Case in point, people ITT calling this movie out for being jewish when it makes jews (and marty supreme) look fucking AWFUL for the most part, which they'd know if they'd actually seen it.
>>217179421Elrodi is good.
This film is a great IQ/EQ litmus test which filters viewers who walk away thinking the film endorses Marty Supreme's behaviour. See >>217180737 which totally misses the point, which is that Marty Supreme is a terrible fucking person and him choosing to be there for his child is the only chance he has of doing something worthwhile.
>>217177391I see Chalamet, I watch it. Simple as.
>>217181242I buy it seeing as how Good Time and Uncut Gems didn't lionise the protagonists of either movie, and Sandler in UG was relentlessly yiddy and repulsive. Sometimes Jews really do shine a light on yiddish repulsiveness even when they are shitlibs, i.e. Maurice Levy in The Wire
>>217181242>thinking the film endorses Marty Supreme's behaviourHe's never punished for any of his sins.The throughline is not a moral indictment of Marty as a person or character, but that the Jewish God is morally ambiguous, and that there are no true consequences to being a bad person.Morality is a negotiation with God, which you can win through trickery or gambling.
>>217181242>IQ/EQ litmus test which filters viewersYou don't know what those words mean
>>217181311for one, you don't necessarily need the film to literally kill a character for it to be evident they're in the wrong. In the case of marty supreme the nature of his actions and the way in which they are portrayed instinctively tells you that what he's doing is wrong. Not to mention he IS punished for his sins, halfway through the movie his entire life starts to collapse around him, he nearly dies, and he ends up grovelling and humiliated in order to get what he wants and go to japan.
>>217181347explain exactly how my use of those terms is inappropriate anon
>>217181242The movie clearly tried to paint Marty as a flawed but ultimately good person. As usual, they also imply that excellence requires this type of abhorrent behavior.
>>217181369He never had a life to lose.He's portrayed as an eternal rat, starting with nothing.>to get what he wantsWhich is.....to humiliate a recovering japan out of jewish resentement.There comes a point where you have to admit on a straussian level, you're not portraying some deep complex morally ambiguous character and indicting their failures, but simply indulging temptatious fantasies the evil part of your soul desires.The jewish identity desperately seeks karmic inversion of their immorality.Some kind of moral loophole or technicality or longshot gamble that will somehow redeem or invert their nature.Swapping moral karmas with a sacrifice and sending it hell in your place.
>>217177022>"Ping-pong is deep, especially when Jew"Maybe people think it's retarded, and another trophy-farmer
>>217181530ping pong is very deepbut not when jew

>>217181393Pick one test, don't just combine three tests thinking it means the same thing.
>>217181676you fucking cretin, IQ/EQ here is a standin for "intelligence" and litmus test is vernacular for "a measure of". I'm literally just saying "The film is a great test of intelligence". You have the reading comprehension of an igneous rock lmao
>>217181716>I'm literally just saying "The film is a great test of intelligence"But you literally didn't say that.>this film is an IQ test>this film is litmus test for __>this film is a test that filters ___Pick one lil zoomie.
>>217181716>"The film is a great test of intelligence"christ dude, of course it isnt
>>217181749niggerbrain"This film is a great IQ/EQ litmus test"meaning: the film is a great litmus test for IQ/EQ>how so?by filtering viewers who walk awaay thinking the film endorses marty supreme's behaviourWhat is so hard to understand about what I laid out there? You try to pick apart my phrasing (incorrectly) whilst ignoring my actual argument entirely, because you don't actually care about being right or wrong, you just don't like the movie but can't justify your position.
>>217181803>niggerbrainThat would be you just jumbling together words that you think makes you sound intelligent>litmus test for IQ/EQLmao fucking moron
>>217181751Considering how many people I've seen that think the film endorses the behaviour of the protagonist, yeah I'd say it clearly works as a pretty solid filter lmao. I'm not saying it's a particularly intelligent film mind you, just that something about it consistently trips retards up in how they interpret it.
>>217181817kek you ain't got shit and you know it bitch boy. movie's gonna make loads of money and win tons of awards btw
>>217181840>its just a24 slop in a dry season
>>217181803>>217181840They’ve been remaking the same movie since Good Time. If you still get enjoyment out of these “jewish character acts antisocial” Safdie movies after being repurposed so many times you’re the niggerbrain, you’re the slop consoomer, you’re the NPC. Hell, the fact that you use MUH BOX OFFICE MUHFUGGA as an argument for its quality suggests to me you’re subhuman lower than ape black african nigger
>>217181897I couldn't care less about how much it makes at the box office anon, all I care about is that I watched it and enjoyed it immensely. That said I know the box office numbers make you seethe. Enjoy seeing it at the Oscars.
>>217181897>They’ve been remaking the same movie since Good TimeYeah the same plot with bigger budgets just makes the whole experience more annoying to watch
>>217181911>MUH BOX OFFICE MUHFUGGAShouldn’t you be in the Avatar thread Suckdik? Nobody cares about those figures over an A24 movie
>>217181952avatar sucks ass anon don't bring that shit here
>>217181242failed the media market literacy award
>>217177022The real reason is most have no IRL friends / girlfriend and find it too embarrassing going alone.
>>217180686>The only person who I know IRL who wanted to see this slop is literally a kikeMy anecdote was this fat chick* excitedly talking about how emotional the movie is*they/them with a "FUCK ICE" pin on her jacket
>>217182012
>>217180737The funny excuse I've seen of psychopaths is "being there for the kids" is an indicator of a decent human being signifier. All grievance has been rendered irrelevant.
>>217182012just got at like 10am when the theater openstheres never anybody there and tickets are dirt cheap
>>217181551Based, the superior ping pong media
>>217182098This is just sad DESU. Going to see movies with my girlfriend at night, getting dinner beforehand and discussing the movie after is a much better experience.Compared to going in the morning alone then coming to /tv/ to shitpost about it lmao.
>>217182194Nobody asked
>>217177022I see movies in theater just not movies about ping pong.
>>217182194You're a normie that thinks a movie is a social event or experience to share with everybody.
>>217181432>The movie clearly tried to paint Marty as a flawed but ultimately good personWhat movie did you watch? Everyone left the theater thinking marty was a selfish scumbag
>>217182194You don't have a girlfriend.
>>217181432not really, the ping pong tournament is meant to imply that he's dedicating all this energy and effort to something which he really shouldn't be and leaving a trail of destruction for no good reason. The birth of his child, and his reaction to it, is meant to be him realising that THIS is what he must dedicate himself to if he wants to be a good man.
>>217182460The whole frame of the story is that finally accepting his illegitimate child whose babymama he denounces as nothing in the pursuit of this empty dream of a sport he doesn't seem to actually give a shit about somehow redeems being a fucking kike.
>movie about a ping-pong playerwew thats a really interesting and captivating topic!also calling it ping pong over table tennis is retarded, must be a burger thing
>>217182544kind of? It's more than he realises the child is immediately more meaningful than all the retarded shit he did previously. It doesn't absolve him, it confronts him with how retarded he was. whether he is "redeemed" is a whole other matter.
>>217182618unironically, it isn't actually a movie about ping pong
>>217182618ping pong is totally fungible with any other sporthe doesn't give a shit about ping pong at all despite it being the narrative framehe barely practices and is somehow the best in the world
>>217176602>Check torrentsNo, it hasn't.
>>217182685>he barely practices and is somehow the best in the worldsounds like a shitty anime plot
>>217182724unironicallythere is a truly incredible anime "Ping Pong the Animation"(>>217181551) which does a really great job of being a great sports story where the players grow spiritually and emotionallymuch better than Marty Supreme

>>217180628It’s a very energetic film, very New York, very Jewish (in a good way). It’s a love letter to being passionate at any cost even when you are a conniving shifty loser who burns every bridge and exploits every relationship. It’s worth it for Timmy boy alone but the rest of the cast elevates it and makes it seem real. They got some OGs to show out too.
>>217182724This is bullshit. Marty is shown to have honed his craft after years of playing in the ping pong hall, he has a cardboard cutout of himself in storage at the end of the movie, he has an entire side hustle dedicated to selling his version of the ping pong ball that he continues to shelve until his friend actually ponies up the cash to make a prototype. This anon is just retarded.
>>217182931>very Jewish (in a good way)
>>217182960>Marty is shown to have honed his craft after years of playing in the ping pong hall,No he fucking doesnt.Like a total 5 minutes of the movie is him in the ping pong hall or hustling people at ping pong outside of tournaments.
>>217182685>he barely practicesThe film has already established himself as US champ. Do you need it to be spelled out?
>>217183068He’s champion of US ping-pong. His entire schtick is growing the popularity of a sport that is only popular in Asia. He’s the only American in the first competition. The entire point of the character is that he is the best in the world at a sport no one he knows gives a shit about except as a hustle or as a hobby. It’d be like being the greatest model train builder in the world and being from India, which should sound familiar to you Singhdeep
>>217183056If you don’t want to inseminate a Jewish broad with big tits who can cook, I can’t help you
>>217183068Yea and in the 5 minutes in the hall everyone knows who he is because he clearly spends a ton of time there and even sleeps there regularly. The first sport movie to not include a cringe training montage and people are complaining.
>>217183077>>217183106>>217183140I expect the life of man whose entire life revolves around ping pong, to spend a moderately realistic amount of time playing and practicing his mastery of ping pong.Marty doesn't give a shit about ping pong.It's just a way for him to hustle money.Ping pong should be some mechanism through which he self-actualizes.His whole life is shit, ping pong is his one way out.It's the one thing he is evidently good at.He doesn't even mention it by name to his babymama when telling her that he apparently has a divine mission.To do what Marty?To do what?
>>217183165the film isn't actually fucking about ping pong retard
>>217183187Work it through your head how that might undermine the function of the film, dingdong.
>>217183204the function of the film works with virtually any non-mainstream sport. Ping pong is incidental.
>>217182858>merely pretending to be retarded
>>217183242Exactly, so Marty's pursuits are fucking empty and malicious.His pursuit of greatness is supposed to validate or redeem his being a megacunt.But this pursuit is of something he doesn't actually evidently care about.And so we're supposed to pretend a child he barely acknowledges redeems him.
>>217183280Chutzpah keeps Marty in trouble whether he’s participating in matches across the globe (in Egypt, he chips off a piece of the Great Pyramid of Giza to gift to his mother) or jumping from work as a half-time clown for the Harlem Globetrotters or conning the not-so-upper class when he hustles Rockwell while sexing the entrepreneur’s whorish wife. Rockwell — the film’s putative capitalist villain — attempts to humiliate Marty yet fails to assert moral reckoning. Instead, we realize that Chalamet’s brashness (“I was rude, overconfident, cocky”) never finds the spiritual center of his character, as does, say, Paul Newman in The Hustler.Marty’s cons expose Safdie and Bronstein’s view of the world. They see everyone as shysters and think it’s funny when Marty’s betrayals confirm this Luigi Mangione–esque dystopia, which features a billiards conspiracy with Marty’s black cab driver buddy Wally (Tyler Okonma) against racist yahoos in New Jersey, as well as Rachel’s instinctive dishonesty that confirms that she’s Marty’s soulmate.Safdie and Bronstein close their jamboree by celebrating one American’s sense of entitlement. But this non-conscientious ending backfires. Their conclusion resembles Robert Altman’s The Player yet misconstrues Altman’s scrupulous observation: that the worst people in the world also procreate. The ultimate degradation is Safdie’s hipster fillip that suggests that he learned nothing from ’80s pop besides taking the Tears for Fears song “Everybody Wants to Rule the World” literally and claiming it as an excuse. A major moral shift in the culture has occurred.
>>217183291Thanks Armond. I knew you had my back.
>>217176602I didn't like the ending. It was decent up until that point.
>>217183291such a shitty review lolalso somewhat related but did anyone think it was a plot point that marty somehow had no money left after he did the harlem globetrotters tour? They specifically point out that he's doing it because it's well paid, but then right after it's done and he gets to new york the film acts like he has no money whatsoever to his name.
>>217183333His uncle who ripped him off before, stole it during the bribed police hustle.
>>217183358ah fuck I totally forgot about thathis uncle is a real piece of shit I'll tell you what, and the one person marty didn't even technically rob or hustle, the money he took at the beginning really was his.
>>217183369he definitely technically robs him
>>217183380he takes his paycheck that he was owed, and then his uncle steals his paycheck back whilst bribing a cop to pretend to arrest him, his uncle 100% is in the wrong here.
>>217183439>he takes his paycheck that he was owedat gunpoint
>>217183457he had to get to london man
>>217182460>>217182628The movie clearly wants you to accept Marty's redemption arc. In reality, someone like Marty is way beyond redemption. 99% of the people that praise slop like this also wouldn't extend even a sliver of similar charity to people they disagree with.
I'm not watching jew movies any more. I'm not watching Chalamet movies any more. So that's a twofer.
Chalmet doing cringe rap was the last straw for me. I'm simply not watching anything with this wigger.
>>217177022>too poor for 8$ movie ticketsI view actually going to theatres as a poor people thing, actually. >bro go watch a movie with black people on their phones all around youno, I don't think I will, actually
>>217183333Wasted quads. Armond is right
>>217177102>I can only watched socially approved stuffWho let the foid in?
I didn't get the modern songs playing in this 1950s period piece.
>>217184259yeah, totally bizarretotal gen x schlock bait
I enjoyed the part where Marty accuses his uncle of paying the cop to intimidate him and then a few minutes later the uncle slips the cop an extra ten bucks for having to deal with his asshole nephew
>>217184259The songs and scores are never meant to be diegetic.
>>217183575There is absolutely no redemption arc, no lesson learned, that’s the whole point. God this board is so retarded. You had another anon saying that the movie doesn’t show Marty playing ping-pong enough. You idiots are literally too stupid to insult.
>>217184259>modernHoly fuck you people are fucking retarded
>>217176602>literally me>jewishPerish the fucking thought.
>>217181551Yep, this is great. Don't settle for some faux-deep jewish masturbatory nonsense.
>>217184419It's modern because I listen to those songs today
>>217179909>1995 is millennialHe's on the border. He's the oldest Zoomer/youngest Millennial.
>>217180123>a very very very Jewish looking movieThe reason I enjoy it is that if it were made by anyone other than a Jew it'd be considered highly antisemitic. It's a surprisingly great character study centered around Jewish pathology.
>>217181311>He's never punished for any of his sins.He ends the movie with no friends and opportunities outside of Rachel and ping pong due to his shitty behavior and misapplied dark triad tendencies. The movie ends with him breaking into tears realizing this.>>217181242This
>>217185074>outside of RachelI don't think even Rachel like him anymore. She barely reacted when Marty talked to her (not to mention that baby might not even be his considering she's also a liar)
>>217183291Armond's just mad there wasn't any gay sex in this movie
>>217181242>Another movie with a le depraved and unredeemable protagonistSick of this Jewish slop. Make something worth a shit already
>>217180534True.I really can't handle that amount of facial warts.
>>217185152>Make something worth a shit alreadyYou're right, they should keep making movies about how awesome cool and perfect Jews are>>217185109>I don't think even Rachel like him anymoreI don't think it's as much they like/love each other as much as they're made for each other. They're the only people on Earth that can tolerate each other to where they have a Bonnie and Clyde dynamic of being the closest when they screw over other people or wind up getting screwed over themselves.
>>217180534Don't want to, thanks.
>>217185233>You're right, they should keep making movies about how awesome cool and perfect Jews areHere's a novel idea: how about a movie without jews? Right, I forgot - that option's off the table.
>>217184259>I didn't get the modern songsThe movie takes a lot of inspiration from 80s genre films when it comes to structure and characterization, specifically the Rocky series and Bloodsport.
>>217185280>movie without jews>hollywoodanon...
>>217185237What bridge does she live under?
