>here's your existential horror kino of the decade bro Kane Pixels bros... we won
Cube with monsters
We did it bros
>>220856676That's a great scene
>>220856676Who was the monster/people at the start? Is it the same as the black guy?
>>220856676the type of shit made for people who watch 10 hour youtube videos about games no one likes
>>220856676horror is the lowest form of entertainment period
>>220856701Cube was great because it was strange and mysterious. The first one, that is.
So I get that the dumb premise of the movies is that "Things somehow randomly end up there and then slowly degrade into weird nonsense over time". Ok. So why was there a monster that just wanted to chase and eat the lady? Just because that's the trope of the genre of "In a spooky place and you have to not get caught" games and shit?
Why do people in the backroom universe have no peripheral view? They do these long pauses and look directly at objects or pan the camcorder behind them fully when in real life people would just see things naturally with small movements.
>>220856951I did like the second one as well, it was a bit wild and not too great but it was an enjoyable once-off. The prequel film could've been better, but it was still cool to see Izon workers watching and controlling the system.Tbh they should've just only released the first one and left it at that. Not everything needs sequel/s.
>>220856976>So why was there a monster that just wanted to chase and eat the lady?It was a metaphor for the black dudes trauma and the therapist had healed him saying he can choose to stay that way which he accepted and the aberration didnt like that (which is also why it bit him). Its like poetry.
>>220856976>Just because that's the trope of the genre of "In a spooky place and you have to not get caught" games and shit?Yes. Spooky run around games are wildly popular (mainly with women)
>>220856676This actually looks kind of cool.
>>220856676I didn't like this movie but this scene and the camera footage with Arian from Dunk and eggs were the only interesting ones
>>220857041The second one sucks and they realized how quickly they wrote themselves into a corner and lol the simulation is destabilizing guys! Game over! The only thing really noteworthy is that it gave the chubby ginger from forever night got a paycheck for more booze an vicodin. Cube Zero is a little bit better because they knew where they wanted to end before the started writing the script.
>>220856676>>220856744This. Was the first jump scare a pirate?
>>220856676Jesus, can this woman act at all?In every single webm I've seen she has the same face
>>220856676So is this movie just all the good parts of The House of Leaves without all the meta bullshit and the worthless druggie storyline?
>>220857286Did you ever see the Japanese remake a few years ago?
>>220857026that was the most annoying thing to me in the movie. it takes them a minute of screen time to take a single step and peer around an object. it works for the tiny little creepy clips that the backrooms internet meme was, but for someone who has been walking around in the place to suddenly stop and freeze and just sit there for no reason it is confusing and makes it clear they just wrote a scene to go around le creepy clip
>>220857362>muh house of leavesWhy do people give credit to that crap when the story of the minotaur in the maze predates it by thousands of years?
>>220856676Looks like a comedy
>>220857471What does that even mean?
>>220857507That it looks like a comedy
>>220857471>>220857507>>220857540Three posts which accurately reflects /tv/'s collective intelligence.
I like thats it bright
>>220856938No thats comedy
>>220856676How do you guys think they filmed this? I haven't seen any behind the scenes, but I'm pretty interested in how the sets and effects work.
>>220857753They actually went to the blackrooms.
>>220856701this movie sucks because it doesn't show what's outside the cubes. low budget and shitty
>>220856701Cube is better because it doesn't explain what it is or why they're there, we never get to knowBackrooms is done by zoomers and they can't help themselves in writing gay lore for everything and anything, so they have to have an explanation, there has to be a reason for it, there has to be monsters and those monsters NEED an explanation, etc etcZoomers are just not good with the concept of fear of the unknown
>>220857647>>220857540I am not stupid for asking him to clarify what a comedy looks like. I have never seen a comedy that looks like this and I want to know what he means by it looking like a comedy.
>>220857753Most of it was built practically except for the pit scene obviously, all the yellow rooms and pool rooms were 30,000 square feet custom built and the suburbs was a real suburb with blue screens
>>220857897But the backrooms is still unexplained. We still dont know its origins or intentions.
>>220857897I agree but I do want to interject with an AKSHUALLY...The origin was never explicitly explained, but one of the characters did give his theory for the existence of the Cube. Basically a large disconnected bureaucracy with a lack of communication between its parts, each worked on individual aspects of the Cube, and no one ever had a high level view of what it was for.
>>220857945>all the yellow rooms and pool rooms were 30,000 square feet custom builtDamn that's fucking dope
>>220857945>all the yellow rooms and pool rooms were 30,000 square feet custom builtI want to see the behind-the-scenes footage. That must have been amazing to experience on set.
>>220857945Aamzing
>>220857897So it's better because they are walking around cubes? Fucking retard
>>220858044What? where did you get that's the point I'm making?
>>220858079Because you said Cube is better but your reasoning doesn't make sense because Backrooms also doesn't explain itself. So I am concluding that you are retarded, sir
>>220856676Why was she crawling so slow? You'd think if you were being chased by a monster you'd have a little pep in your step.
>>220857295>>220856744Bump
>>220858125Because shes on a tiny ledge with no railing and could fall into an eternal abyss? Did you even watch the clip?
>>220858007they apparently had some people get lost during filming lol
>>220858250They got dat authentic backrooms experience.
>>220857295>>220856744>>220858140Im 99% positive it is. Theres only a few frames at the beginning where you can see it. This is the best one. The height matches and you can see a bigger distorted right hand and the ball joint from the peg leg in the silhouette which matches the pirate.
>>220857471I laughed so hard when the monster of a giant Negroid pirate. I laughed during the entire chast scene. My wife and our kids started laughing. Other people seemed annoyed, but it was extremely goofy, or as my son said, "goofy ahh".
>>220858349Maybe that was the parrot in his hand or waist on the left pic.And oh crap, I just realized the reason there was a larger parrot next to the purple chair was because that was from Pirate Clark Still Life. I noticed the parrot was bigger than normal in that one room, but I didn't put 2 and 2 together until now.
>>220858349I was hoping it was another form of trauma but just Clarke's
>>220858410>unironically posting this
>>220858172Yeah, so it makes total sense to do it while looking back at the monster and not where she's climbing. Dumbass.
>>220858532Sorry, but I'm not afraid of "the blacks". Especially when they are dressed like goofy ahh pirates. This movie was basically the end of Ghostbusters, but instead of a cool skyscraper-sized Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man, we got Dikembe Mutumbo on Halloween.
>>220858349GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY
>>220858349Why'd they make it not scary
>>220858577I agree he wasn't that scary but you sound like a retard
I just watched and I don't know if I'm supposed to be familiar with the youtube videos or something, I remember the first video but never watched anything after that. That said, while the cinematography, backgrounds, architecture, music and overall tone of the backrooms was really good and I believe that makes it an above average movie, at the end of the day, the characters move the plot forward by being fucking retarded and I'm not referring to the idea of exploring the backrooms instead of getting the fuck out, I'm referring to the characters dying because of sheer stupidity and them being scared shitless but taking their sweet ass time walking EVEN when being chased.The focus of the movie changing from cool yet eerie esoteric place to "look at crazy man being crazy that's soooo scary" and then the monster is just some ChatGPT ass character instead of an weirdly shaped monster is lame.Then at the end I'm guessing the scientist bullshit is supposed to connect it to the youtube videos? It's just so pointless, just fucking delete all that shit.
>>220858602He was too expressive and had too much CGI, and there was even a moment where he was stuck and she felt bad for him. They should have gone with something more analog horror-ish and done more with the found footage
>>220858124Backrooms has a bunch of gay lore behind it therefore it explains itself
>>220858792Isn't this that video which is an allegory for le depression and loneliness or whatever? Fuck that
>>220858795It barely does, Clark guesses how it works but not even A-sync knows what it is
this shit is literally just some SCP article type shit. how the fuck did they make this literal sewage into a movie? its enough to be a short SCP article that you read as a teenager and go "huh. that was kinda neat, i guess" and move on.
>>220858828most SCPs should be movies, to be fair
>>220858125>>220858172She also broke her ankle in an earlier scene
>>220858809>le still life>le creates copies of rooms and remembers them or something>le hazmat suit scientists >a sync>there's levels or whateverSee? That's all gay retarded lore, how about "it's a place, no one knows about it, it's scary because it's unknown" that's itBut I get it, you zoomers need everything to have lore for some reason and everything needs to "matter" it can't just exist
>>220858702How do you feel knowing that me laughing was the scariest part of the movie? I live in a world of children.
>>220856676Looks pretty dumb
>>220858828>>220858840I remember a SCP about some extremely deep staircase. This whole discussion reminded me of it.
>>220856676Yeah, im thinking its fucking K I N O
i just watchedit's not greatit's not badit's like playing those indie horror scary jump video gamesthe problem is, film is not exactly scary is just vanilla creepyHeretic was betterThe plot is trying to resonate with working people not achieving their goals, that's like > half of the population.Renate was a beautyfinal assessment: overated
>>220858763> "look at crazy man being crazy that's soooo scary" Well its never stated how tome goes by in the backrooms compared to the real world but he think its implied he spent a long long time in there( probably years on backroom time to find the exit) seems pretty believeble one would go nuts. And his only food source was probably the mutants so he developed a taste for human meat.
>>220858889Why is Reddit so smart and 4chan so dumb? No wonder this place is right wing
The guy who dies at the beginning of the movie was actually first namedropped in some obscure lore document that Kane posted on his discord, he was also one of the researchers who finds the dead body in Missing Persons
>>220856676KANE?
>>220858930that's just circle jerkthis place is retard tho
>>220858923That's not my point though, the backrooms is such a cool concept and scary enough, why dedicate 20 minutes of the movie to a guy being a psychopath as if that is not the most basic form of horror.
>>220858863It sounds like you are just old and retarded desu
>>220858863The ending still leaves a lot of room for speculation. Was it the real her at the end being mutated by the backrooms or just one of the clones? Did the backrooms merge with the real world in some apocalyptic event or was it just replicas inside the backrooms(to me it implied by saying there is more and more portals appearing it was taking over in the real world) There was no explanation what the scientists were exactly looking for.Compare that to the lore dumps of the youtube-backroom videos there wasn't a whole lot of lore.
>>220859064>. Was it the real her at the end being mutated by the backrooms or just one of the clones? Did the backrooms merge with the real world in some apocalyptic event or was it just replicas inside the backroomsYou might genuinely be retarded anon. We clearly see Clark get copied and his furniture shop gets copied and your conclusion is that she turns into that and the world ended instead of fhem also being copies? How stupid are you lmao
does the rolling giant make a cameo
>>220857381not him but don't, I saw a summary video which popped randomly one day and it was complete dogshit, cube 2 is a masterpiece compared to the nip remake
>>220859064The ending shots were just showing that the Backrooms is still continuing to duplicate locations and even people into itself. Thematically, I think it was conveying that all these places and Mary have been "sullied" by the Backrooms, it took the characters' lives and memories.
>>220859134no but there is a guy that kinda looks like a small version of him
>>220858954>guy who works for an MRI company was murdered by a pirate monster from a furniture store This shit makes no sense.
>>220859176put your phone away and watch the movie, boomer
>>220859107If you assume his theory is right and all mutants are actual clones. The scientists were obviously concerned about a spread of the backrooms and entrances(into the realworld)
>>220859064>The ending still leaves a lot of room for speculation>proceeds to misunderstand the most clear-cut scene of the movie
>>220859197Thats only if you assume Clarks theory is true and the scientists were concerned about the backrooms influence growing(possibly into the real world)
Can someone explain what the fuck this was about? At first I thought Async built the doorway and put that switch to somehow control it, but then it was later revealed they had no idea about the doorway and the switch was also never bought up again. So who was switch?
>>220858702 stfu you nigger
>>220856676Seems pretty damn spooky to me.
>work at starbucks>enter the backrooms>get chased by an evil starbucks barista version of yourself
>>220858889backrooms and liminal spaces are allegories for purgatory
>>220858577your son talks like a groid lmao
>>220859254Could suggest the backrooms influence growing into the real world
>>220858930don't tell them it's catholic propaganda about purgatorytheyll explode into a fit of fury and rage
>>220858930>Why is Reddit so smartlollmao
>>220856676kino
>>220859332>Evil goth barista catches you>Forces you to drink a frappe made from their spit
>>220856676I-is that ... A stairway leading to a door? OMG I'm going insaaaaane
>>220858577>Sorry, but I'm not afraid of "the blacks"You were the ones acting like niggers, anon. Nobody likes loud assholes ruining the experience for everyone else.
>>220857945>>220858007I'm not sure that's completely true, I thought Kane said he still used Blender for some scenes (which is still soulful given its source material)
kino
>>220856676That's nice and all but why did the leads have to be a black man and a white woman, specifically?
>>220859341purgatory is an extra-biblical innovation created by papists, and as such this movie is terrible and can be ignored.
>>220857670Making people laugh is actually difficult. Scaring people is not.
>>220856676Looks cool.
>>220858828the original 4chan post is basically a vaguepost ripoff scp-3008 (possibly others)
>everything needs a tvtropes page, a youtube lore explainer or miscellaneous extratextual guide so zoomers can consume itzoomers not beating the most embarrassing media literacy generation allegations
>>220860504The original 4chan post is so bad and it is actually awful when people try to cite it as what is and isn't "lore accurate". Nothing about the original post became the aesthetic other than the image which already belonged to the dreamcore/liminal aesthetic.
creepypastas were gay little thought experiments to create horror scenarios to lightly frighten other nerds on the internet. they weren't intended to be a load bearing pillar in actual culture and acting like they are is total zoomer brain death behavior
>>220858410the dinner scene or whatever you want to call it was comically bad what boring movie at least undertone had some creepy suspenseful parts
>>220856740retard
Was he /ourguy/?
>>220857092Perhaps his neutrinos had mutated
>>220860830his part in the dinner scene was kind of funny
>>220858349If he'd just followed the rules, the LIMINAL PIRATE RULES, none of this would've happened
>>220859134I am still confused by people who get grossed out by rolly polies, they're about as cute as a bug can get aside from jumping johnsons
>>220860605>theorizing is badboomers not beating the waste of space allegations
>>220859332> trapped for eternity third in line behind a fidgeting shit-smelling druggie while the lady up front orders a fractally complicated mandlebrot frapp and asks recursive questions about add ons while counting out nickels and looking through her purse for the gift card she KNOWS she has in there somewhere

>>220861530he was the best part of the movie too bad he died cause he couldn't change his monkey behavior
>>220861530Why did he do it bros?
>>220856676Why is there a doggy door in a space based on office buildings and meeting halls?
>>220856676AAAAAAH HALLWAYS SCARE ME NOOOOO NOT OFF WHITE WALLPAPER NOOOO
>>220856676Why didn't Freddy just follow her through?
>>220860119Apparently he used blender to make the movie first but then they created the sets in real life
Did anyone else dislike how Kat and Bobby had little screen time? They should've been in the movie much longer
>>220857897>Zoomers are just not good with the concept of fear of the unknownCool, but the backrooms are MILLENNIAL. Zoomers just stole the idea.
>>220858349None of this would have happened at Big Wayne's Furniture Barn.
Whole film should have been found footage the bit where the three of them go in to do research was kino
>>220863102His prices suck.
>>220863076The backrooms as conceived by millennials is entirely based around the unknown unlike the accusation leveled against what was done with. You are repeating him as if it's a gotcha, you retard.
>>220863138That specific version of the unknown is millennial in nature.
>>220859341>backrooms and liminal spaces are allegories for purgatoryMaybe if you want to make a coherent story out of those things but really they're just playing on childhood fears/anxieties of getting lost/separated from family in shopping stores , what happens if you end up in the store (or perhaps school, or office building/airport/etc) after it closes with no other people, and anxiety of winding up in places that you probably (cant tell since no one else is around) aren't allowed to be in, and get into trouble being in if you are caught, etc.That is the real root of all this liminal stuff.
>>220863182Zoomers should have made it about airports since they visit them more often than malls.
>>220856976gen z grew up with video games and its trigonometry telemetry shit, backroom is a 'what if' situation where you 'clipped out' from the current 'plane' into another world - treating this entire world as a video game cells where some abandoned rooms are unused assets. its unique at first, but started to become gay when they decided to add some monsters and shit. guess they cant detach their fantasy from those cartoon network and millennial gay ass monster fantasy shit from early 2000s, so whatever
>>220863257None of that is gen z.
>>220863070The movie should have revolved around them.
>>220860830looks like he is obsessed with trannies
>>220863257>trigonometry telemetrywut
>>220863270the initial concept of backroom can only be conceived by someone who grew up with video games and 3d model. No clipping is literally something that you can find in counter strike and fallout. The problem is that the concept itself, despite being mid, is actually okay if it just stay that way. It was until this backroom thing becomes 'big' and have too much people contributing their 'ideas' in here and giving it too much substance like allegory and metaphor that itended up to become a slop. Now we have monsters, some black guy trauma whatever on this thing instead of some visual emptiness that looks unusual and not right if you look at it for too long>>220863310Just some funnyspeak, ignore it
>>220863328>the initial concept of backroom can only be conceived by someone who grew up with video games and 3d model.How is that gen z?
>>220863387Zoomers consoomed video games?
>>220863424You think noclip and 3d games didn't exist before zoomers?
>>220863437Yes
Why are there no Amogus misremembered entities? They should be everywhere. Or does it only feed on your strongest psychological traumas, ie. unhappy wife in kitchen, monstrous pirate persona? If so then is legless lamp man and fat multieyed beard man products of scientists trauma?
>>220859134Only thing I noticed was the name Reverchon
>>220860830Major David Lynch vibes
>>220861530Aw that is cute you think Kane directed this movie and it wasn't ghost directed by Osgood Perkins, Mark Duplass or one of the 11 other producers(James Wan, Shawn Levy). In no sane world would they give a 18 year old 10 million dollars to create a film and trust him to do so.
>>220863566They gave Rhian Johnson Star Wars so i dont see why not
>>220861530JUST
>>220856676I can just tell the same kind of person that likes this garbage sucks off Robert Eggers to no end
>>220856676There was plenty of space why was she shuffling along the wall Why was she crawling so slowly up the stairs
>>220859341>>220860250Under Purgatory rules, papists never lose
>>220856676I thought it was ok for what it was, although if the captain monster smashed his way through the door the momentum would have taken him over the edge, which annoyed me.I also didn't object to black man, which is saying something because I'm a massive racist.

>>220863566Likely Kane got final say in everything. It sounds like he was heavily involved with the script. I am guessing the other producers would step in to suggest changes based on experience, like how a camera should pan in this scene or that scene. Especially the kitchen scene where he is standing next to the therapist with the knife and the camera is down low like a horror movie vs how Kane showing things at eye level. I bet they had a lot of influence in the kitchen scene especially.
There's two scenes in the black rooms most of the movies comprised of bad dialog scenes outside the rooms>>220857189>>220858140>>220857362There's two scenes in the black rooms most of the movies comprised of bad dialog scenes outside the rooms
>>220857897>It's better because the writing is lazierNot really an endorsement. You probably thought LOST was absolutely "brilliant writing".
>>220858349No, the date on the first scene is 6/19/1990. The date on the scene when Clark first enters the backrooms is 6/26/1990.
