Lads I have a region A copy of The Cell in 4K, now I tried to use it with my xbox one x but it isn't detecting it, I live in Australiawhat do
>>219877945>i live in Australia>what dokys
>>219877945>Unlike DVD region codes, Blu-ray regions are verified only by the player software, not by the computer system or the drive. The region code is stored in a file or the registry, and there are hacks to reset the region counter of the player software. In standalone Blu-ray players, the region code is part of and enforced by the firmware.>Similar to DVDs, some Blu-ray rippers (such as AnyDVD HD) can remove region codes as well as other types of digital rights management (DRM) and copy protection, including Advanced Access Content System (AACS) and BD+. Multi-regional standalone players available,[15] and some standalone Blu-ray players can be modified to be region-free.
>>219877945>>219878049also, standard blu rays are, but 4k discs are not region locked. you probably have some other issue which makes sense bc you are Australian
>>219878052well SHITif anyone wants a copy let me know
smoothhands here of https://letterboxd.com/Smoothhands/ fame. just completed my week in kino review.In reading about Phil Solomen I learned that machinima is an actual film term and not just the name of a youtube channel. The more you know. Also found out that I had seen 5 Aleksandr Ptushko flics. I had had a feeling of familiarity watching Cкaзкa o пoтepяннoм вpeмeни, I thought just for a general soviet kids movie feel, but turns out itsall one director. Well not all, but at least in part.-smoothhands

There was a set of questions about Schrader's Transcendental Style in Film in the season finale of University Challenge (hardcore UK quiz show). The answers were Tarkovsky, Brakhage, and Akerman.There was also an unrelated question about Jerzy Skolimowski's EO.

Clip from a North Korean slasher movie where a South Korean spy murders a doctor. Movie is called "Days and Nights of Confrontation.">>219897284Thanks. Daphnis and Chloe is a very good silent picture worth checking out.
>>219900433>North Korean slasher moviekino???
For me, it's Comrade Kim Goes Flying
>>219900527https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kktu1ftIg94Close captions and autotranslate to English. The main villain is the son of a South Korean agent who tried to overthrow Kim Il Sung and he wants revenge. He faked his own death after his father was captured by the authorities and killed a kid and took over his life to move up in the ranks of NK society to get close to the train carrying Kim Jong Il so he can blow it up with a suicide vest.It has some kino scenes like this >>219900594
>>219899595Hate that book. Hate Orwell in general. No sense of subtlety. Literally screams his intended meaning at the reader all the time. And what a shallow and dogmatic meaning it is.Animal Farm is even worse, but I guess you can show it to a toddler to teach it about society. Teletubbies level of complexity, really.Was anyone else here forced to read Shooting an Elephant at school?
>>219900843Homage to Catalonia is actually a very good read. 1984 is ok. Animal Farm is literally a kids book, I'm not sure why you're using "Teletubbies level of complexity" as a criticism when the intended target audience is the same.
>>219900843the man hated Stalin, who can blame him?what about his non-fiction? didnt you enjoy Down and Out or Catalonia?
>>219900843>shooting an elephantYea I read that in the 8th grade. I read most of Orwell’s work when I was a teenager, if I had waited until my late 20s or thirties I would have hated him too probably. Still I think for the most part he was a force for good in the world. Any popular material that condemns and warns against totalitarian nightmare regimes has value imo.
>>219900945>didnt you enjoy Down and Out or Catalonia?Never read those. At some point I just stopped giving him a chance.
>>219900945I read Down and Out in high school. It didn’t change my life or anything stupid like that but I remember it was sort of liberating as an American teenager to read a non-fiction book about a guy with no money and no job just tramping around Europe. The idea that you could even survive that way was sort of alien to me. In my country you’ll end up in a cave fighting off the national guard like Rambo if you try that shit
Oh heavens no I can't enjoy Orwell e gad! Let the buttplug out already
>>219879357>>219879409Watched it. It was kino. Splended form revealing trackings shots.t. smoothhands
can /film/ answer this simple movie trivia question?
>>219904829Anatomie d'une chute
>>219904829>"A certain critic said ..." gives me the same energy as the famous "According to Buzzfeed ..." question. How the fuck is anyone supposed to know what some "certain" critic said?
>>219904829Sea of Trees? Awful Gus Van Sant flick, probably his worst movie actually. It doesn't even feel like a Van Sant movie, more like diet Malick.
>>219905000>>219905103Incorrect.>>219905048So you don't know it.
>>219904829Asian dude reading looks like Asian Sylvester Stallone.
>>219905179>So you don't know it.Like I said, no, I do not know what some critic said about some film. Might be Forest Gump for all I know, considering how retarded some critics are. At least give me the name of the critic so I can do some proper research.
what is the worst type of movie fan? capeshit is despicable but its basically normalfag tier at this point. to me it’s horfags. holy fuck those FAGGOTSimagine having a shitty thrown together room with fucking trinkets and masks and little cancerous consoomslop everywhere. >this is my nightmare on elm street STEELBOOK collection>and over here is where I keep my Freddy v Jason masks>haha yeah those cobwebs are fakeholy FUCK
I will leave you all to guess until the morning. The film has over 3K fans on letterboxd and a rating above 4.
>>219905283For once i'm not telling you to shut up, yes, those horro guys are the same as the retrogaming guys.
>>219904682Impeccable framing.
>>219905283Star Wars people for me. I don’t get why some mediocre science fiction franchise from the late 70s is treated as a substitute religion by so many people. And outside of the people who worship it there’s another large segment of the population that aren’t as fanatical for it but still view it as some cultural foundation or act like Star wars is somehow synonymous with “the movies” or whatever. I feel dirty just talking about Star Wars this much
>>219905758Say what you will about Ebert, but he was right on the money in his diagnosis of the Star Wars fandom.
>>219905810Spot on
>>219905810why is Star Trek catching strays? they're not even in the same ballpark.
>>219905893More of a criticism of trekkies than of trek though
>>219905655>im jus really alternative and edgy>you just wouldn’t even understand >gore doesn’t even phase me>>219905758>>219905810its the same thing as Disney adults. it’s their identity and comfort zone. not being challenged or exposed to anything new is their chosen lifestyle. Star WarsDisney AdultsCapeshitIt’s all the modern equivalent of the allegory of the cave
>>219906001Isn't it Trekker?
>>219905758This. It's astonishing how most of them seem to hate at least half of the films. At the same time they're extreme gatekeepers about the whole thing. I don't fucking understand how those two things even go together.
>>219905810Damn, this might actually be the best thing he's written, kek.
>>219906924>best thing he’s ever writtenThat would be Beyond The Valley of the Dolls
>>219906924Personally, I enjoy Alec Guinness' take.
>>219907162Sent that freak flying.
I never gave this much thought, but is Chaplin genuinely the best (or at least the most noteworthy) English filmmaker? That doesn't seem right.
>>219907998Either him or Hitchcock.
>>219907998In terms of most noteworthy, it's probably either him or 'Cock (though it's complicated by both doing most of their most important work in America). In terms of best, Powell, Greenaway, Davies and Watkins also come to mind.
I watched Up in Smoke tonight for the occasion and you have to admit, Lou Adler's got a pretty impressive list of films.
>>219908146Everyone from Freud to Einstein to Joyce wrote about Chaplin. I think the modern cinephile actually underestimates how ubiquitous of a figure in popular culture he was during the first half of the 20th Century.
What is /film/'s take on Come and See?I know some of you will probably go on about how the Soviets did worse and Germans were welcomed in parts of Eastern Europe (which I would agree with in good part), but I still say that the director really showed what he went through. Apocalypse Now is still my favorite war movie overall, but Come and See became my favorite war movie which shows the brutal, bizarre nature of war regardless of which side is "right", and how traumatic the 20th century was for humanity as a whole.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uk45ybudLnI
>>219908620It's a masterpiece that was ruined by normalfaggots and /pol/yps discovering it.
>>219908620>I know some of you will probably go on about how the Soviets did worseNah, we're pinkos hereCome and See is very good, but The Ascent by Shepitko is definitely more /film/core. Highly recommend that movie if you haven't seen it.
>>219908712>>219908811I think I enjoyed the Come and See's sound editing more than anything else, what a rollercoaster for my ears> The Ascent by ShepitkoThanks for the recommendation, I'll take a look.
>>219908346Based and gracious Chaplin.
>>219908346Any good historical film that depicts Churchill as the terrible joke of a human being and war criminal he was?
>>219908811>Nah, we're pinkos hereNah, we're first and foremost philosemites here and as the left has turned on the Jews we've turned on the left.
>>219909202fuck off Ari
>>219909202I think you're not only in the wrong thread, but also on the entirely wrong board, anon.
>>219908620It's a hilarious film, it makes the nazis so cartoonishly evil that that, coupled with the protag pulling faces at the camera, makes it impossible not to laugh at the absurdity of the whole thing. Not a bad film, just unintentionally funny and massively overrated.

>>219911232I initially thought he was doing more annoying contrarian shtick like D*ngo, but going by a quick skim of his 5s, 4.5s and 4s, this isn't really representative and he seems to be pretty /film/.
>>219911331We support Zionism (Akermanian Tunnel Zionism) precisely because we love Jewish girls.
>>219911426You know what? You're right. All the power to Akermanian tunnels. You go girl.
Tie me to a missile and fire me at Tel Aviv, my body is ready.
Very funny and smart satire, and perfect casting, all the old geezers were kino. Ultimately i prefer Loves of a Blonde for its emotional depth though. Guess after this one he left the country because the soviets came in.

>>219911956Eh. He insists upon himself too much but Ali G is a great character. I quote him from time to time. Tom Green did shock humor better.
>>219912093>>219912155He's very hit-or-miss but Borat and the other things mentioned are good.
>>219908620I probably would have thought it was fine if it hadn’t been built up so much by the internet. I watched a couple of video essays about it on youtube where they acted like it was the greatest or the bleakest or the whateverest war movie ever. Definitely overrated
