Why is it that in the recent years it's so trendy to be "artsy fartsy" (having a Letterboxd account, sharing obscure directors...), especially arthoes who are suddenly all film enthusiasts/music enjoyers who look down on people that don't share their same "niche taste"?Celebrities are doing it now with Criterion Closet and Letterboxd is interviewing celebrities about their top 4, shit like that.Performative as hell if you ask me.
They trying to convince you they actually give a shit about this industry
>>218924798>why do people who are in the movie business have different movie tastes compared to Cleetus McFlyover
nepobaby cunt
>>218924798>PerformativeWhy are zoomers suddenly obsessed with this particular adjective?
>>218924798why the fuck does no one wear a bra in that 'show'? is it a mandatory thing for the female guests or what
>>218924951it's brave and empowering chud
>>218924862It's the flavor of the month, it happens all the time. I'm shocked you haven't noticed this pattern by now, you might be retarded.
>>218924842>flyoverShalom
>>218924951Cuz they know sex sells and the movies won’t let them be hot anymore so they have to do it themselves.
>>218925001It was a rhetorical question, much like OP's. The fact that you failed to notice it and still call others retarded is funny, ngl,
>>218924951kojima was wearing a bra
>>218924798Criterion continues to disappoint me... Every month that passes without a Freddy Got Fingered edition, I lose a bit more faith them.
>>218924798She's hot and her mom was gorgeous. I'm tired of pretending differently. All these jews in hollywood and the waspy family gets called out for being nepobabies.
>>218924862because everyone has caught on to this bullshit tactic, Rabbi.
>>218924798sex incarnate
>>218925163>"I'll just stick my butt out and stretch so you can get a good idea of my new boobs."
>>218925163Stop stop, my neurons can only get so activated
>>218925120bruh your antisemitism is soooo performative frrrrrrrr on jah
>>218924798Streaming and Youtube make it pretty low effort to find stuff you are into.
>>218924798I would cum right inside of her pussy.
>>218925198What boobs? I'm more focussed on the tumma
>>218924798I think she's going to become very attractive when she's older
>>218924798This has always been a thing. I like the obscure movies because I get sick of seeing the same American slop all the time.
>blockbuster movies are slop>arthouse is pretentious and performativewtf do people here even watch?
>>218924951>why does sexy woman sell sexAre you 5 years old my nigga
>>218925550where do kino like master and commander fall?these are my favorite moviesI think "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" falls in the same category
>>218925550It's not "arthouse is pretentious and performative"It's watching dumbass actors and directors who constantly make slop try to convince you that they're serious art enthusiasts and not hacks.which comes off pretentious and performative
>>218925550no one watches movies here it's just an outrage board
>>218925230that was the best you can come up with? "No U"
>>218925594this/tv/ is a boatkino board
Tarantino cast Sydney, Qualley, Madison and Austin Butler as small parts in Once Upon A Time. He can spot talent.
>>218925623saying "no u" is honestly pretty performative desu
>>218925661>sydneyhe can spot tits
>>218924798>Why is it that in the recent years it's so trendy to be "artsy fartsy" (having a Letterboxd account, sharing obscure directors...)You are 21 years old, and you're just now discovering the world beyond your kid and teenage tastes in media.
>>218925694>Tarantino>caring about titsHe's into feet bro. That's like his entire thing
>>218924798>recent yearssure bro
>>218925684Just another (you) farmer, huh?
if it were me in the crit closet i would choose kung fu and b horror filmsfuck art, fuck cinema, we hate indie movies nigga
>>218925550Classics and foreign cinema mostlyThere’s been almost 100 years of film with sound and many silent kino before that
>>218924798>Why is it that in the recent years it's so trendy to be "artsy fartsy" Is it?>(having a Letterboxd account, sharing obscure directors...)Letterboxed is not "arty fartsy", lots of low brow garbage high rated there, it's just imdb but more trans friendly.And what does obscure directors even mean to you?
>>218924798It’s only “performative” if you’re a fucking dimwit who can’t comprehend that people who work in the industry might actually love cinema and thus actually watch and appreciate more artistic films instead of MCU slop and Star Wars
>>218925758Just another easily baited retard, huh? Kek.
>>218925550/tv/ doesn’t watch anything, they come here to bitch and whine about silly pet grievances and asshurt they get from online articles related to tv and movies that hurt their manbaby feelings
>>218924798I'm not sure how retarded are you exactly, but Criterion Closet is one of the marketing tools used in the industry now. Notice how they always have a big project coming up when they drop a closet vid?
>>218925594This meme is past its expiration date, bro.
>>218925864You'd be surprised how few people here have ever watched even entry level shit like Kurosawa or Wyler. OP probably thinks liking John Ford is "performative".
>Talladega Nights >Speed>The Spy Who Loved Me>original Donner Superman>The Fast and the FuriousChad.
>>218924798Everyone has niche taste now that monoculture is dead.
>>218925997sounds performative as hell
>>218925938(you)
>>218925986Yes, and? It’s still just people talking about movies they like and giving recommendations that are available from Criterion.
>>218925086>>218925163>>218925255>>218925378Holy fuck Qualleyfags are annoying. I'd rather have Gadonfag than Qualley shilling. She's Kristen Stewart 2.0 in terms of ugliness.
>>218925163I really want to have sex with Margaret Qualley
>>218925550exclusively 80s and 90s blockbusters. anything else is woke dei slop or pretentious woke dei slop
>>218926545A bridge too far but yes they are annoying. She's still never carried a big movie either. Not a movie star!
>>218924798For once there's a trend I agree with.
of course a board that has big brother threads thinks letterboxd and criterion are "artsy"
>>218925163She's going down the bog path unfortunately. Stiff ass boobjob, lip filler shelf and weird eye lift.Bogdanoff Death comes for everyone.
>>218927824Kek!
>>218924862Because everything they do is performative, nothing comes from a genuine desire to do for the sake of doing. Social media has turned everyone into a disingenuous narcissist because anyone with a Tiktok or Instagram could one day randomly go viral and get money from their posts. Or at the least, carefully curate their image in order to get likes and comments to validate their egos.
>>218924798Lists are easier to "share" than actually talking about the movies. It's all PR. Celebs are fake as hell cis it's all SEO keywords to promote the, and saying stuff to be liked as a brand/persona. They should just entertain them fuck off, cos all they do is serving the establishment comprised of mass murdering/enslaving predators. It's not blackpill, ppl need to wake up.
>>218928014youre projecting, most sane people only post pics of their kids and dogs on social media, and the accasional party selfie, the only ones that chase likes from randoms on the interent are whores and people who already were narcissists like boomers who are chronically online on facebook
>>218928136I suppose this comment would be accurate if we were in 2010 and the people in question were 35+ year olds. You have to genuinely be out of touch to think this.
>>218928136>accasional You must have been the top of your fuckin' class.
>>218924798>Performative as hell if you ask me.You're just mad you're not with the zeitgeist.
>>218924798She has ugly sad orangutan titties.
>>21892495130 and under women are liberated from having to wear bras, breasts aren't sex organs
>>218924798It's always been like that you fucking child. Hell, the Russian Tsars emulated French customs that were supposed to be more elevated, to distinguish themselves from their local elites.Also this >>218925930 these people approach cinema with genuine interest and knowledge. Look at Alec Baldwin's interrogation after the shooting. He explains the process of movie making and prop safety with more detail than even your average film student, because he knows it intimately.Actually pay attention to the shit Tarantino mentions. He actually has great taste, knows his shit and cares about what he watches.
>>218925550nothing. this board is filled with angry losers just like /v/. this board died in 2020 imo
>>218925001>It's the flavor of the monthzoomers have been using it for years now
>>218929098>WHY WON'T THEY SHUT UP AND JUST EAT THE SLOP?!!!
>>218928118The people who appear in the Criterion closet don’t just list movies, they go into all kinds of details about them
>>218924798For some reason Millennials and zoomers take slop lists very seriously, they have to list their favorite music or movies, it’s like a personality for them and they want to share it with everyone
>>218924798this image provoked lust
>>218929478OP here. This is exactly what I'm talking about. They always have the urge to flex about their music/movie taste (which, nothing wrong with that. it's just that when it becomes your personality and then you feel the need to look down on others then it becomes a problem).; that and they seem not be able to form their own, all agreeing that their top 4 are deemed to have "Possession" or Kurosawa's "Cure" or some shit like that. I don't even think they actually enjoy those movies, hence I think they're very performative in nature.
>>218924798It has always been trendy to seem cultured and erudite, this is just how celebrities broadcast that to the plebs these days
>>218924798A. Hollywoodslop has become WAY too slopfied, people naturally become more aware of the medium when the landscape is so dry and you can't be fooled so easily.B. We are in a era where tastes and interests have more value than your fashion and assets, thus being a hipster is far more rewarded, hence the larper epidemic.
>>218930177Cure is fucking awesome. You might just be a dullard.
>>218930257>We are in a era where tastes and interests have more value than your fashion and assetsi wonder if that's because everyone past gen x is equally broke nowadays
>>218925550I watch Barry Lyndon on repeat
>>218930177Because you’re an idot
>ITT people seething that actors consistently have better taste than you
>>218924798Someone invented the term “basic” and this is the reaction to that. Same with septum piercings and the dumb doodle tattoos.
>>218930773Do they even listen to classical music?
>>218930773These "your fav movies" lists are most of the time indistinguishable from a random number generator picking from a list of classic movieswow such taste
>>218924798>having a Letterboxd accountTried just for recoridng my thought s on all the movies I watch but got banned for slurs and misogyny. This is discrimination
>>218930663Watch the draftsman for more kino.
>>218924798You know these are advertisements right? They aren't actually picking movies they care about.
>>218924951>2026>wearing a braWomen under 35 yo increasing choose not to wear them and visible nips under shirts are fully normalized
>>218933955that's like not wearing sunscreen tier of stupidthen your tits will get all saggy when you age
>>218933981it's the other way around, imbecile
who was the criterion closet guest who had their choices so previously picked they were even sticking out?
>>218934029is that true? I guess I wouldn't know, I'm not a woman
>>218924798Mikey Madison has such a great one, she doesn't pick the most highbrow shit on the planet, she picks Five Easy Pieces and Chinatown and you can really tell how much she admires Jack.
>>218933981Tits are supported by the shirt/blouse. The idea that bras help tits not to sag is hearsay bc they will somewhat sag at some point and the Yolo mindset makes women show their tits partially or totally while they look their best: firm etc
>>218930773My favorite movies are Office Space, Napoleon Dynamite, and Home Alone. I have better taste than any faggot who buys shiterion garbage.
>>218925550Anything made before 2016
>>218934199Performative picks.
yes they should be crying about chinese people in their pathetic children's space whiz bang films and wailing strange conspiracy theories about box office
Why do they always have hot qts for this? Don't they ever invite fat, ugly chicks with talent? Or is that just the only ones that get posted here?
>>218926545maybe you just like men faggot
>>218934199>durrrr my favourites are better than yoursWeak minded bitch
>>218924798I thought it was always trendy to be artsy fartsy>>218924951Are we going to be finding something out someday?
>>218924951Zizek wore one.
>>218925198incel hands typed this
>>218926545>She's Kristen Stewart 2.0 in terms of ugliness.lmao u gay
>>218924798She is so mid. Bad actress too. She's a nepo baby though so not like she earned her career anyway
>>218925550>/tv/ is two peopleI hate you, you're what's wrong with this site.
>>218934124you can always become one :p
>>218924798>>218925163why is this the hottest she has ever looked?
I dont care, always liked Waterworld.
>>218924798Consoomer culture. Consooming product is identity, so your product of choice should be relished like a holy relic.
>>218943118Short hair Kristen is hot as fuck. She's a successful wall dodger too.
>>218924798did you isabeau-ify this?
>>218930177Again, it's an identity-building process. Like dressing up. And yes, it tends to be either performative or performative and boring. Which is not to say that those Top lists can't be useful to appraise someone's taste or get a couple of recommendations.
>>218924798>Why is it that in the recent years it's so trendy to be "artsy fartsy" (having a Letterboxd account, sharing obscure directors...), especially arthoes who are suddenly all film enthusiasts/music enjoyers who look down on people that don't share their same "niche taste"?Art hoes have always been like that. I used to date a lot of them in uni 10 years ago and they were always film students or art students and thought Tarkovsky's STALKER was some niche "2deep4u" masterpiece that only art students could understand.
>>218947008>picWhere are her bones? I hate the e-girl aesthetic, but what's really insane is how many of them don't even have bones below all that fakeup.
>>218924798Actors make their livings playing pretend all day. Who the fuck is possibly more "artsy fartsy" than that? What do you think these people genuinely enjoy? Margaret Qualley is a particularly shit example to use since her parents are Paul Qualley, a model, and Andie fucking MacDowell.
>>218924798Because movies are so bad now the only people that watch them are film nerds, the criterion closet and similar is just marketing to reach that audience. 90% of the film industry runs off of getting faggot film nerds to watch their indie slop because only 5% of movies made are big enough to even be worth marketing to normies. Normies dont watch movies because they are bad, especially the indie and awards movies. The big ones arent “bad” so much as they are completely inert and soulless products, its the mid to low budget movies that are genuinely bad and repel regular people.>>218925550All modern movies are bad. All of them.
>>218924798Is it a requirement that girls do this braless?>Mikey Madison did it better
>>218924798>Performative as hell if you ask me.We had people stacking shelves with books they haven't read. This is nothing new. People were like this before as well. Social media just took it to a whole new level never seen before.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxiwMYzEDhE
>>218947330You sound like a mouthbreather. Perfect opportunity to ask you to post a list, so we can measure the tastes of someone who decries all modern film as bad. You either won't or your list will be embarrassing shit. But please, prove me wrong.
>>218947330So sick of sauceless puke like this. Always speaking generalizations because you know no specifics. And you know no specifics because you're an arrogant dimwit.
>>218924798Who's this...?! Bitch's tits got served divorce papers or something?
>>218924798>fartsy
>>218947930Margaret Qualley. Bogged out in spite of being married now. Same happening with Emma Stone. Millennifoids have no self-respect.

>>218948020He'd be genuinely shocked to find out how much the snobs want to feel seen, how much they want the public to recognize what's private, how much the cinephiles want the experience to be shared.
If I ever become famous, I'm gonna say my fav movies are something like Transformers or Deadpool out of spite. I promise, anons.
>>218948122>how much the cinephiles want the experience to be sharedTo be fair: That's not an inherently bad thing.

>>218948122>how much the cinephiles want the experience to be shared.You're on a message board dedicated to discussing film?
>>218925550I watch slop, ill watch art house idrc. The only people I hate are those that pretend movies like "small things like these" are good. most boring movie I've ever watched.
>>218948286Unsurprisingly, you hate film. You don't understand a single thing about it, but you've latched on to a system to imprison it in. More precisely: You go by release periods and critical acclaim. Extremely midwitted behavior.
>>218948385You ever see The Leopard from Visconti? Big, grandiose, classy, as high as highbrow can be, the exact thing you're supposed to withhold from the general public. But it's so easy to find. It's not supposed to be this way.
>>218948672>as high as highbrow can beThat movie is homosexual window dressing. Prettily done of course.
>>218948609You think i dont know how letterboxd top lists work film nerd faggot? I know youre supposed to performatively throw in Big Daddy or John Woo or Megalopolis. You have never enjoyed a movie in your life because you consume it to wear it, this is evidenced by you thinking modern movies are good (not a single normal person agrees with you)
>>218949105First of all, you're not normal. You're some midwit chud with too much time on your hands and not enough drive to do something worthwhile with it. Actual normal people think old movies are borderline unwatchable. They won't even consider trying them. Secondly, you're pretty much admitting to being a fraud by immediately lambasting how shitterb*xd users create theirs following a different fraudulent system. There's no fundamental difference between you and them, just a different set of cage bars.
>>218949787Holy projection. Sounds like you got something you need to figure out
>>218949874>Sounds like you got something you need to figure outNot in this context, no. I have to say, though, you were very easy to figure out. >Holy projection>You have never enjoyed a movie in your life because you consume it to wear itHeh.
>>218948385The kicker here is we're all anons here. This isn't even a forum where you got a username and build some kind of a persona for yourself.

>>218947955I haven't seen here since the substance and wtf is going on with her face? I'm not well versed in bogging procedures but it looks like she got some sort of face lift. She looks rubbery, like she's wearing a mask on top of her skin. Like an alien.She wasn't even that old. Why are women like this?
>>218951120>the performatively nuanced art faggot meets the chad generalizerIm sorry that the entire 1920s mogs your favorite A24 dogshit, I didnt make it this way I’m just reporting it.
>>218925550No, it's not that arthouse is (always) pretentious, it's that she is, amd women are in general.Beau travail (effectively an adaptation of Billy Budd) is in fact a wonderful film as films with Denis Levant usually are. I'm stunned it's directed by a woman, which is why the pretentious pretend to like it and also insist on fagcoding it, because they can't grasp male bonding outside the context of anal sex.
>>218930773t. woman enraged we can see through her basic pretentiousness
>>218951464>the chad generalizer That meme was only created to make chuds kill themselves (figuratively at first). Not sure how much I care to correct you on the art faggot read. Let's simply say that's a shoe I'm unfit to wear, and you've been having such a flawless run with your projections; I wouldn't want to take that away from you either.
>>218951900You forgot performatively nuanced. Performatively, you dont actually care about any of this. I made a commanding generalized: all new movies suck. To which you demanded a shit test, then complained that my answer wasnt performatively lowbrow enough, then jumped into this smug armchair psychiatrist tranny routine. All the while, the initial comment remains unopposed, uninvestigated, unchallenged: modern movies are bad. It remains that way because you dont actually care about whether or not its true.
>>218924951bras make your boobs sag more over time and a lot of young women know this, same reason a lot of them don't want hats because they don't wanna lose hair
>>218952448You made a ridiculous claim, provided no reasoning or evidence to substantiate it, and now you're trying to get me to put out. The initial comment doesn't remain unopposed; it remains unfinished. And that's viewing matters charitably.

>>218933981>>218934124Breasts are supported by muscles and ligaments. What happens when you don't use your muscles? They atrophy. Bras take all the strain off the muscles that support the breasts, which means they weaken and atrophy, which means they stop being able to hold up the breasts and they end up saggy.

>>218955825>Fetishistically picking only movies within a certain release window and only ones with high critical acclaimAnon he said he thinks older movies are better and your mad that he listed old movies that are critically acclaimed? This along with thinking “modern movies are bad” is an edgy thing to say tells me you are terminally online.
>>218924798Authenticity crisis, people are desperate to not appear as NPCs.
>>218954443Thanks for posting that. I needed to save that on my new PC.
>>218957077No, he said all modern movies are bad, turning whatever dialogue into a farce already. And his choice of movies listed is also more specific than old and critically acclaimed, aesthetically and in its shyness of facing the supernatural from any other angle than a Gothic one, though both of these facts (a literal cutoff point in time and lack of any hint of controversy) are enough to safely call the list manufactured, treating the obvious farce with no more dignity than it deserves.
>>218954443While I do agree with this, a lot of these actors had their lists chosen by their PR staff. Only the very earliest ones doing this before it was a big meme were legit. You can tell who isn't being legitimate since it just doesn't match them as a person, either in their own acting or from their own personal interviews over the years.
>>218948286Poser. Pure performance driven list

Still catching up with "old" stuff I put off...whatever was not working in Midnight Special, it's done better in Before We Vanish (Strolling Invaders) by Kiyoshi Kurosawa (of "Cure" fame.( Jeff Nichols was inferring 80s Spielberg in his low-fi ways. Due to the US military bases in Japan, Kurosawa adapting a successful stage play is evoking the American idealism in 50s Robert Wise, but within the contentious influences of US on Japan (with its own issues) on a low budget.

>>218959050I agree with that. The Criterion Closet is unironically a stop on the PR trail that many actors visit right before going on Hot Ones the next day.
https://youtu.be/xjMy2RSgBAoThis is my fav vid of the closet.
>>218959112>>218948672>>218948768All these takes are valid in their own ways, would you believe, like 3 men feeling different parts of the elephant. Yes Visconti was dramatizing his experience of growing up in the elite world, the pomp and circumstance of generational wealth/capital forming a self vs. group identity influenced Godfather trilogy. Feeling the weight of the vacuous, all are illusions as the older gen die off is in Lancaster's character.

>>218924798having a "good and refined taste" is associated with being high class. think of the rich man sipping fancy wine at an expensive restaurant
>>218958955>and in its shyness of facing the supernatural from any other angle than a Gothic oneI havent seen any of the movies he listed, but I’m curious what this means
>>218959896Think of Blumpf McNuggies.
>>218959896Is it still refined taste if you did nothing to get refined? These people just get told what is good, they don't actually discover any of it themselves.
>>218960176Anon, you just sound bitter.
>>218959971It means the poser is afraid of being perceived as childish. And he probably only allowed those two instances because there's classical /lit/ backing.
>>218960216That's not a counter argument, that's just ad hominem. You also know I'm right.
The thing that bothers me isnt the movies they pick its how faux reverential they are about everything, including just being in the damn closet. Thats the part that feels performative to me. It should feel like hanging out with someone in the corner of the movie store but instead if feels like listening to some MAGAtard talking about meeting Trump. Like its one thing to be passionate but so many of these videos feel like they desperately want to be taken seriously, and again this is BEFORE you even get to the film choices I just mean the tone of the whole thing. And they always have some meaningless anectode about the first time they saw the movie that adds nothing other than making us aware that they remember the first time they saw it because it means so much to them. Ugh
>>218960508It's all fake and setup, that's why. It feels insincere because it is.
>>218960251I have a feeling that anon has not watched those movies and is just trolling. I’m curious what your favorites are
>>218959975One must imagine Blumpf McNuggies happy.
>>218947955Who...?!Are you just making up these names?
>>218956050The hit 2020 roguelike? I sure do
>Criterion>Letterboxedthe only accounts I need are picrel and similar
>>218960508>but so many of these videos feel like they desperately want to be taken seriouslyTalk about projection
>>218953537Interesting
>>218924798it originally wasn'tbut then a jew bought criterion collectionhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Ralesthen it became scriptedbtw his stepdaughter is kennedy who was in CIA
>>218924798Most people are insecure about their taste, reality is, the highest rated films are usually the best ones.Performative movie taste is cringe, like no motherfucker, you did NOT like Le Haine, fuck off!!
>>218970509Le Haine is pretty basic entry level stuff
>>218949787>midwit chudironic considering your entire identity is based around consumption
>>218933744beau travail, i've been watching movies for 20 years now and i've been a movie buff for 10+, what the fuck is beau travail>some random foreign movie about some bullshitthat some performative faggot dug upAh, ok.
>>218948286>posts performative old as fuck movies that look like shit with boring as fuck stories and minimalistic garbage>calls someone else "Faggot cocksucking film nerd faggot"lmao
What gets me about cinophiles and these retards obsessed with art movies and perfomative shit, is that they think they're doing something productive by watching "good movies"Like you're still just a consoomer watching movies, you're just watching media like everyone else, you're not growing as a person and you're not impressing anyone, faggot.
>>218924798I've noticed good actors are acrually empty human beings with literally no soul behind their eyes, and they like don't really care for anything particular, but are like the wind constantly on the move and never settling and having a crystallized identity or care for anything or anyone. I mean they don't even care about the films they participate in. can you seriously tell me that Timothy cares about Dune lore and the philosophy and meaning of Dune and whatnot... he'll no... he's an empty husk, a tool for the director (who really cares). these people only care about their face and looking good, being famous. rhats it. and they will use any opportunity and thing to stand out. this happened to video games - it was taken over by these empty people, narcissists, and look what happened to the unjustly - total annihilation
>>218970698>qualityslop>you only like it because it's goodthread
MUBI > Criterion
>>218970732>he's an empty husk because he didn't memorize the whole wiki for Soi Wars (Sand Edition)
I was a part of a movie forum years ago, and we had users in there who were always flexing their "cultured" movie tastes and condescending anyone who expressed their love for dumb fun popcorn flicks. This one guy who was sharing his love for Jason X finally told them "Look man... I'm a fucking chemical engineer and when I'm done proving my intellect in ways that actually count for something on a daily basis, I turn my brain off and watch crap that I don't have to pretend to like. What the hell do YOU do?"Guy was a hero that day. Fuck pretension.
>>21892555080's low budget slashers.
>>218925550They watch far-right influencers who tell them what not to watch.
>>218924798they want to pretend like taking their tits out and shaking their ass in front of a camera is sophisticated high brow art, and not the degenerate softcore pornography it actually is.

>>218975434The biggest reason why Sweeney is popukar with normies. Outside if being a 9/10.Shes honest about it. She doesn't play the fake feminist who replaces being coy and demure with pseudo intellectualism and open disdain for men and sexuality.Its refreshing and shows more character and courage then playing pretend feminist.
>>218975798She’s popular because people like oggling her tits
>>218976330Big tits are everywhere in Hollywood.

everytime I hear some random actor name Cassavetes I uninstall their movies and delete them from my HDD
>>218975000>far-rightBarely. It's primarily consoomerist grifters. >>218980643What's wrong with Cassavetes?
>>218981017>What's wrong with Cassavetesnothing really, I just hate actors
>>218984155Okay. That's good then.
its called a paid ad.
>>218984679Literally. It fails at being a good format because it's limited to Criterion's terrible product catalog.
Celebrities used to have a mystique by default. They went to cool parties normies couldn't go to, they went to exotic locations you'd never visit, they had status and influence beyond anything you could ever dream of. And then social media came along and showed everyone that the average celebrity was at least as retarded as the average normal person. So they had to start trying to compensate.
>>218925550John woo
>>218985004I think that's a good thing they've lost said "mystique." You had, and to a degree still have, people who worship them as if they are part of a benevolent pagan pantheon or loathe them believing they literally eat fetuses and bathe in the blood of virgins. The "revelation" that most of them are merely well-managed midwits is a welcome change of dynamics.
>>218925550>wtf do people here even watch?2nd movie mentioned in >>218925594
>>218924798her picks?
>>218930663ive never ever heard of this movie
>>218928136you forgot about shitty jokes
I love Army of Darkness
>>218948122>>218948297This. Snobs want to realize their idealistic vision of what modern movies should be and they want everyone to look inside. Will stuff still get withheld and gate-kept? Sure, but we're talking art house movies you can only see if you're VIP.

>>218924862Because zoomers tend to be anti-social autists so they think that normal people who follow social cues and norms are somehow dishonest.
