Synecdoche is more depressing
sinners is more depressing
the clue appears to be in the name...and that poster as well. Looks and sounds maudlin as fuck, were you expecting a comedy?
you obviously haven't seen Melancholia or Manchester by the Sea then
>>218413824Melancholia wasn't depressing, it was boring.
>>218413456It is but I like to think of it more as a warning than just bleak nihilism. Don't become this dude. I have a low tolerance for pure doom-gazing movies, so other films like Von Trier's stuff put me off. At least this one has a message of some existential import.
>>218413860that part
>>218413860damn this nigga retarded
>>218413456pretentiousness olympics
>>218413861>Don't become this dudehah, imagine
>>218414174what podcast and/or twitter post did you absorb that phrase from?
>>218414219>THINKS IT'S SO INVENTIVE THAT IT WAS STOLENNIGGA YOU EXPOSED YO DUMB ASS
>>218414219it's my natural reaction to the first half of this film. yay, you dropped another name and read another book that was popular 20 years ago. you are sooo deep and sophisticated. two of the most insufferable characters in existence.
>>218413456I promised myself I'd fix my life6 years later I haven't done shit but make things worse
>>218414414>i still have time i saidit's been 9 years
>>218414299Most art / arthouse whatever you want to call them filmmakers are not intending their movies to be "deep" and "sophisticated". Most directors do weird shit or namedrop literature and whatever because they just think the weird shit is cool and also want to reference other shit they think is cool. Nobody thinks they're making an actual philosophical tractat or a puzzle to definitively solve when they're making a movie. Most of the people you think "look down on you" in fact don't have a "too good for this" attitute at all. Tarkovsky praised Terminator, Herzog acts in Tom Cruise action movies and Star Wars, etc. You're letting retarded film critics who apply the notions of "depth" and "sophistication" to guide you, this is performative closed-mindedness, you're the one who is being pretentious in the end "wow look at me I'm so down to Earth and common and know real life truth not this pretentious shit!". The movie in OP in fact couldn't be more straightforward by the end of it.
>>218414299What name drops filtered you lol
>>218413456It's pseud trash and destined to be forgotten.

>>218415208Filtered
its terrible, the moment where your brain gets so fucked you cant even daydream anymore
>>218415690Wanna be friends?
>>218413961Melancholia sucked.Deal with it.
Animal House is more depressing
>>218413456I know I've watched this flick but I literally cannot remember a single thing about it.
>>218413456i dont like that womans face so i shant watch
>>218413456>lil zoom zoom who's seen <100 films
depressing movies don't make me depressedthey make me feel understood
>>218421402Same here.I watched The last days of Disco yesterday and that actually made me feel like shit.
depression movies about romance don't do anything for me, because I don't know what romance is
>>218413824>>218413860I swear Melancholia only exists because of the god-tier concept of this shot and von Trier worked backwards to write a movie around it
>>218421835I only know having fantasy romance (oneitis) with girls who don't like me and having relationships with girls who I have no feelings for
Depressing movies are tricky, because there's a thin line where, when crossed, it simply becomes boring>>218413456>Charlie Kaufmann yet againThis dude is clearly miserable at all times. If you didn't got that since Adaptation i don't know what were you expecting from this one
this was more depressing. seeing this guys wife enable all his delusions until the final heart breaking scene where he fucking dies after chopping off his penis. it's basically 2 hours of seeing this guy get tortured by his demons and nobody lifting a finger to help him and instead pushing him farther and farther until he's destroyed
>>218413456The scariest and most depressing version of the future, worse than any dystopian or catastrophic depiction, especially if you are an autistic shut in.
>>218413456I only saw this movie once, when it came out almost six years ago, but I think about it pretty regularly. I'm pretty sure the janitor's life is exactly where I'm headed.
>>218422134This is the standard "I'm measurably different experience"Everybody around you tries to fuck with you just so see how badly you can break-down.
>>218413456wrong poster
>>218413824>Manchester by the SeaIs it tho? That guy should had kill himself, no other option, then, boom! they all live happily live after, the end.The most pseudo film you can imagine twisting most simple 'problem'
>>218422421You fucking retarded, thats the whole point.
>sometimes it feels like no one sees the good things you do
