Eggers bros, our reply? Are we frauds?

Eyes of Fire is an interesting little novelty but think The Witch is clearly the better made film

thanks, won't even pirate it though

Someday people will be praising eggers and VVITCH being a superior film, it's cloudy it's sunny it's cloudy again
>>
>>220740438
Eyes of Fire is a good horror film. I watched it more than 20 years ago. I still haven't seen The VVitch.
>>
>>220740438
I will watch eyes of fire but Eggers movies are really good. Like so much modern slop, his movies can be really devoid of color but otherwise they're incredible.
>>
>>220740438
The VVitch is the better film of those two, and I don't think "settlers face old folk religion witched in new country" is any kind of new trope for either of those films.

The Northman is just a rip off of The Lion King

eggers is terrible and a quick search about how he got into filmmaking in the first place makes it all make sense

>>220741218
>midwits

This person seems like a schizo autist. Just the way they talk is setting off alarms. STAY AWAY, this person will shoot you.

his highschool needed a last minute replacement to direct the school play they were doing of nosferatu, they picked him since he was into art design. he made it all black and white and leaned heavily on expressionism, which caught the eye of a local theater owner who saw it and onboarded him to do a bigger version of that play. so eggers got into the business that way, bypassing going to film school, which seems cool but it explains a lot of his shortcomings.
a lot of the attempts at symbolism in his films are overt/lack subtlety, this lack of education is also why many of his themes come off as outright pornographic and almost insultingly on the nose, and why a lack of an understanding of fundamentals ensures he will be little more than a walking pastiche machine. it's similar to tarantino's problem.
i think he can create something good someday but it feels like his potential to create something meaningful and reasonably original is inherently doomed, a common problem with modern filmmakers.
midwits/reddit will eat it up and hasten the ruination of cinema unwittingly, it's basically poison.

That's how zoomers talk now

>>220741419
>coomers
funny, yeah good intuition. it's the pornographic nature of his writing, he has no sense for the sensual and focuses on the more grotesque aspects of sex. i suppose it's fine for his genre but it's almost insulting to watch
>>
>>220740438
what the fuck about the vvitch is pseudo-sapphic?
>>
>>220740438
What the fuck is a """pro-pagan pulse""" and why do I feel like it's something only a dorky fat middle aged white woman would care about?

Has nobody itt heard of soiled sinema? It was the og "this movie is jewish because I didn't like it" website.

What about Lighthouse, Nosferatu and Northman?

>inb4 retard mentions Northman is a Hamlet ripoff
>>
>>220741504
Northman is a Conan rip off. It follows the same beats as Arnold's classic.
>>
>>220741504
Northman sucks is all. Doesn't matter what it ripped off

So you would prefer a new Avenger's movie?

>>220741659
fair point. i guess i just wish people cared a lot more in general. maybe i'm being unfair.
>>
>>220741677
I think you and I have somewhat similar views. Eggers gets called high art which he absolutely isn't. But the bar is so low in cinema that he looks incredible in comparison.

Both you and I want cinema to be the vital, living art form it was during some periods in the past, and Eggers trying to emulate that and failing into pastiche wounds us deeper than it should.

No, I would prefer a new Eggers movie because I have horrible taste and only like shitty movies

the whole point is that the witches are BAD. Imagine being on the side of the ones grinding babies into paste to smear on their brooms so they can fly
>>
>>220742484
Witches don't do that.
They just have sex with shotas to prolong their lifespan.

Eggers, Peele, Aster and the faggot who directed Weapons deserve nothing less than death. James Wan has my permission to live.
