the only thing anyone remembers about this movie is the cult scenes, even though the scenes in the streets at night are some of the most evocative scenes put to film of a feeling of being between realities. They do a great job of making those mundane moments feel like a half-asleep dream state
>>218210466>that scene where a bunch of fratbros call Tom Cruise a faggotTruly the most evocative scene ever put to film
>>218210553you've never taken a walk at night

>>218210466The urban legend surrounding the supposed 20 minutes of deleted footage still spreading exponentially despite no shroud of credible evidence or testimonies ever being provided fby anyone is a much better indication of a low IQ society to me. I keep seeing new videos with 100k views or more just regurgitating the same tired claims and comment sections swallowing them wholeAs far as the night scenes in EWS, they always reminded me of a more elaborate version of the Seinfeld NY street set.

>>218215203The movie is obviously implying that Alice was always a member of the cult. Has anyone posed that to Mrs K?
>>218210997I agree. I'm certain that tabloid is meant to just keep the film always relevant. It's like in Event Horizon where the "deleted footage" apparently caused someone on the staff to kill themselves....Really?Plus other movies already did the secret society thing before (The Devil Rides Out) so this trope isn't even original. The movie was about not having trust with your partner/cheating.
>>218210466>the scenes in the streets at night are some of the most evocative scenes put to film of a feeling of being between realitiesOrpheus, Mulholland Drive, Tombs of Blind Dead, Footprints on the moon, DON'T LOOK NOW. You jest!
The stoned convo with Alice is all ironic dialogue with her exposing her history to her husband for the first time... the image she uses of the patient who is sexually curious about Bill is really just a glimpse into Alice's young adulthood. For most married men it must be quite effective as a scene.https://youtu.be/MzJXol9s7i0?si=8QopmK9fBF_9Zpsu&t=585
>>218210997It's so obvious that the majority of people who both spread and buy into the EWS conspiracy have never actually watched the movie. It would make no sense structurally or plotwise for there to be an extra 20 minutes of pedophilia or "naming names" or whatever other retarded shit they fantasize about it being. The film is already about a Luciferian sex cult of elites, it's showing you exactly what these conspiratards say happens all the time (they're not entirely wrong) and somehow that isn't enough for them, it's too artfully done and they just need to see Bill Gates sacrificing a baby then eating it.
>>218210997In the early 2000s those rumors were reported regularly by sources you would likely conside reputable. All of this was purged around 2007-2010. Not even records of it on wayback. I used to have articles bookmarked and when I went to read them again they were irrecoverable. That, more than anything, convinced me that the missing footage angle is legit.
>>218210736wtf is wrong with you
>>218210466Truly amazing stuff.
>>218215493The movie is even referenced in the emails of JEE, in terms of wanting to party
>>218210736this post is so fn tuff
>>218210578I've done plenty of nightwalks in NYC, even with an expensive DSLR in my hands, and never caught any trouble
>>218215493Do I really need to say anything?
>>218215708I'm a pretty smart and discerning guy, and my insightful post has caused you to reconsider your objectively bad take?
nah i also remember from the movie that women are whores
>>218215493What sources would I consider reputable that reported those "rumors" (your word) in the early 2000's?
>>218215854I don't remember because I deleted the broken links over a decade ago. I think one was early screen rant. But it got play even in the MSM. Anyway, I don't expect you to believe me or to be influenced by what I said. Just saying
>>218215884Do you remember any details from those articles, anything that would indicate those articles were more than just second-hand reports of rumors or hearsay? Or was it only the fact that the links were deleted somehow later or impossible to find on the Wayback Machine that convinced you those articles must have been truthful in the first place?
>>218216007My recollection is that it was being discussed as an interesting rumor that may have been confirmed by "unnamed insiders", but that the MSM articles never linked his sudden death to the editing process. The reason I even saved the articles is that I remember it being implied that we might get future cuts with the restored content, and I wanted to remind myself to check whether that had happened. I wish I remembered more, I wish I screenshotted them. Like I said I don't expect to convince anybody. It's just that when you watch something getting disappeared, it tends to convince you that it's something they don't want out there. It's not easy to come up with a non-conspiracy reason they would want this forgotten.
Now the pieces fit together.Alice in Wonderland destabilize.MKULTRA program.Snow White erase.Mockingbird reinforce.Together, these modules create a closed cognitive loop.The subject (or society) is destabilized, contradictions are erased, reality is reframed with a single coherent story, and that story is reinforced until it feels natural—until it becomes indistinguishable from “truth.”The genius of this system is that it requires no constant force. Once the environment itself is managed, people will police themselves.Like players in a videogame, humans believe they are free, but their choices are bounded by invisible code. The rules of perception are already written.This is not persuasion. It is environmental design.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74k5w0vwoRE
Your obsession with ews is odd. Not that good.
>>218216123You seem to be at least speaking in good faith and I don't want to presume too much about you might know or misrember, but i do wonder if you're not confusing the rumors about the deleted footage with the original controversy about the digital figures that were added to the american release to mask the more graphical aspects of the orgy sequence in order to secure the R-rating. It is a verifiable fact that for a few years, it was impossible to see the unaltered footage in the US (the 1999 theatrical and original DVD releases) while the international release didn't have the digital additions. It was discussed widely at the time. https://youtu.be/0wyAvXMLE5s?si=9-Z0kfaQY4hkhfr-
>>218210466>the only thing anyone remembers about thisEverything in society is half remembered. Fuck, every adaptation often gets shit wrong until the changes become the thing. Ask anyone about any so called classic and you'll at best get some cliff note mentions of themes.

>>218210466What a coincidence, I posted a thread about this movie just now >>218216000What an amazing movie. I really did like the piano driving suspense, him tracking down all these leads in just two nights. I really dig Kubrick's work because of how certain patterns overlay and repeat each other. Like the fertility symbol being seen everywhere, hiding as mere Christmas decoration. Brilliant stuff.

>>218215537if that's a real place, why couldn't they just...go to that place to film it?
>>218216292I appreciate you giving me the benefit of the doubt, but I'm quite certain that the articles were about 20-30 minutes of extra footage that would potentially change the meaning of the film. I've been using torrents and usenet and similar for decades, so finding international releases wouldn't have been a problem for me. To be honest I was not even aware of the censorship controversy, but the missing footage issue has been in my mind since I first heard about it in the early 2000s
>>218216610Kubrick refused to fly (he lived in the U.K.) because he knew 'they' would sabotage any plane he flew in.
>>218216610Kubrick didn't want to go more than 2 hours from his house and you can't take over a NYC street for months if not years to do hundreds of takes daily.
>>218216633>To be honest I was not even aware of the censorship controversy,There's not much else that can be said between us, but I guess my parting word to you on this topic would be that Kubrick had a pretty massive, loyal and obsessive fanbase all over the planet and someone somewhere would have archived and brought light to those details and articles if they had any substance to it and had been censored or memoryholed later on. It would have caught the attention of some serious people in the various Kubrick online communities of the time, not just you and some casual Screenrant browsers.

>>218210670Is boomerslop just anything made in the last century to you?
>>218210997>supposed 20 minutes of deleted footageit doesn't have to be 20 minutes... it could be just 15-30 seconds; one rumor said they cut out a human sacrafice room scene during the orgy walk-thru that sounds perfectly plausible.... also plausible is the threatening note being sanitized where the sentence "Bring you daughter to xyz toy store tomorrow for our pickup if you don't want to suffer unimaginable physical pain" (or some variation that ties the final scene to the note) was omitted. This scenario of altercation would not change even 1 second of total film time but would let the cat out of the bag sotospeak.

>>218210466Biggest proof is that Kubrick has multiple movies having Peter fucking Sellers telling secrets out loud but they are never discussed.
>>218210670Same, but only because I don't like Nicole Kidman
>>218222437kubrick ghost directed being there, also starring peter sellers.
