post your charts
>>220435036bi-curious coded
>>220435036>>220435655You can't just drop a chart without a heading or a unifying point and expect people to be interested in it
>>220435831I strongly assume the unifying point is "favorites," which makes the charts in question only more boring.
>>220435831>filename "movies i like">hrmmmm whats this chart about? i cant tell
>>220435831Moron
>>220435831They are just films I like the most but you're right in a way. It's a mix of arthouse and genre, old and new, personal and objective. I've also excluded animation entirely. Go ahead and post a chart of your own with some context.
>>220435036You should have posted the link, OP:https://topsters.org/
>>220435036>La Dolce Vita in the top spot >Celine and Julie AND Beautiful Troublemaker >Chinatown, Casablanca, Eric Rohmer's Moral Tales >Even Manhattan Are you me? A friend recently gifted me Woman in the Dunes and I will now be watching to tonight because of your top tier taste. All that's missing is Il Sorpasso
>>220435036I fail to believe that those aren't merely picks out of aesthetic consideration for presentability. Do you actually enjoy those self-serious, sterile turds?
>>220438191most of those (that I've seen) are really good though
>>220438066You'll love WitD if you're literally me. Il Sorpasso is great but I think I had Trintignant fatigue by that point, dude was in everything.>>220438191Which ones seem performative to you?
>>220438242>Which ones seem performative to you?The almost total absence of anything containing CGI.
>>220435036I have too many to post. Anything specific you are looking for?
>>220435036>Ugetsuyou should check out more Mizoguchi films, that one is the only you will find with magical realism but he's made other masterpieces that are worth watching>>220438294dude just took a deep dive in older films that happened to not have access to that technology... what's the problem there? If I told you one of my favs is from the silent era you'd say I'm being performative because nowadays we have films with sound?
>>220438294name 1 (one) masterpiece on the level of anything in the OP containing CGI
>>220435655based
>>220438365And I'm proven right yet again. Nope, I won't name any titles. You don't deserve them.
>>220438365Post Tenebras Lux
>>220438431because you don't know any>>220438433I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, but I did like it more than a couple of the films in the OP. Silent Light is Reygadas' masterpiece imo
if youre a pretty cool guy and like films I recommend everyone to check out every film here.
>>220438365Speed Racer
>>220438328Practically all of Mizoguchi's other films are about women being oppressed by le patriarchy. Sansho is great but it's misery porn. I feel Ugetsu is a more balanced and abstract portrait of war/greed/repression while still displaying his insane talents. Tell me if you have any particular recs.
>>220438835watch 47 Ronin
>>220438835One of his themes is also social injustice and the struggle between the human heart vs. rigid laws... In many of his films his characters (both male and female) are trapped and constrained by rituals and ceremonies and class roles dictated by the written and unwritten laws of their society, it doesn't matter if it's Edo japan or modern times. And often the characters end up persecuted by either zealots who look at the law as a totem that must be followed at its utmost consequences or opportunists that look at that law-totem from one side or the other and takes advantage from others whilst retaining his 'honor' or 'law-abidness'. In at least two of his films this line is uttered "Laws should work to serve the welfare of people", I think it summarizes that aspect of his work I'm rambling about.My recs: The Crucified Lovers, Life of Oharu, Princess Yang Kwei-feiI still need to watch more of his work, he's one of the greats to me.
bump
>>220440548at least dump some charts with your bumping
>>220441976
>>220442039
>>220442065
>>220435036Le man with no taste.
>>220441976>>220442039>>220442065>>220442096what's the point of this? At least sort it or something. If you don't pick few of best at least in per ganre then its pointless library of movies no different form just list of Europe movies from wiki.
>>220442197it's a list of good directors from each part of the world, and they are sorted by release date of the films included. not that hard to see
>>220442240
>>220442265
>>220442297
>>220442197/film/ is full of midwits, what did you expect?
>>220442197>>220442368I used to browse /film/, it might genuinely be the worst general on this whole website. They share one brain cell between them. I was hoping they wouldn't notice my thread but here we are.
>>220442368>>220442880I stopped dumping them, niggas. jesus christ. and I don't post in /film/ anymore because I hate what has become of the general. I'm just keeping the naming scheme of the charts because I started the project when I still posted there occasionally. so how could I improve the charts? I thought they had a good layout. I will admit that I got a bit carried away with some of them and they grew to be much larger than I originally thought, but I don't see that as a bad thing
>>220442353The fact that this list doesn't contain Rang De Basanti or Dev D makes me kinda sad
decided to try and pick one per decade, couldnt include the 20s because of the grid style but my pick would be The Last Laugh
>>220443784
>>220443610>Rang De BasantiI thought about it, but ended up axing it for one reason or another>Dev Dit's one per director and Anurag Kashyap is already on there with Gangs of Wasseypur
>>220443983That's a shame. If it's one per director I would have put Eega instead of RRR.
>>220443804If you like Parasite watch A Separation by Farhadi
>>220444064for the most part I just chose their most popular film from their country
I have the impression a huge chunk of arthouse types (cinephiles or whatever) are overcompensating 2nd/3rd worlders.
>>220445138>people enjoy films I don't >no, that can't be the case>they MUST be larping thirdiesgrow up, anon. not everyone has the same taste in film
>>220445420I have seen proof for this. I also said a huge chunk, not everyone. And I never mentioned LARPing.
>>220444506thanks ill check it out
>>220435036I prefer animation
>>220445943based
>>220445943What animation?
>>220446396Traditonal and stop-motion, not so much 3D, although there's a few that I like, such as Wall-E.I'm going to list my favorites because I don't have that chart, but I think it's an overlooked medium.
>>220446441not going to list*>>220446028Sadly the west doesn't invest much in proper adult animation and mostly focuses on children, which is fine, but there's a lot of untapped potential there I think
>>220446441if you like surreal/avant-garde animation, I highly recommend. it's definitely not for everyone, but I loved it
>>220446453>Sadly the west doesn't invest much in proper adult animation and mostly focuses on children, which is fine, but there's a lot of untapped potential there I thinkThere's stigma involved here, as well as the lack of a tradition. Theoretically, they could leach off of anime's growing popularity, maybe reconfigure parts of a studio producing children's animation or have someone found a new one with some visionary billionaire's money or so... Which all reminds me that there already are studios doing horrible, horrible things for Netflix and Amazon (thinking Invincible, DOTA, that retarded D&D show, etc).
>>220446581thanks anon I'll check it out
>>220446441>but I think it's an overlooked mediumI know some of the Czechoslovak and Hungarian stuff (Pied Piper, Krabat, Heroic Times, Tragedy of Man, Son of the White Mare), but is any of it good enough to make you prefer it to film?

>>220447749I forgot Starship Troopers :(
>>220435036i cant stop adding to it
