> haha White people are so creepy and off-putting, am I right my fellow goys?
>>220864046Is this really the only way to make threads about Kaufman movies? Just blatant bait?
Character Plemons plays is clearly another Kaufman self-insert.
>>220864153You think Kaufman was a fat kid who grew up on a farm and lost his parents to Alzheimer's?
>>220864153>LE DIRECTOR'S SELF-INSERTIt's adaptation of a book, you pseud.
>>220864209Adaptation was also an adaptation of a book and yet...
>>220864125I mean, what's so special about Kaufmann beyond his trite nihilism gimmick?
>>220864046Why is the roastie on the poster and not Jessie Plemmons?
>>220864258Because she banged Kaufman and got to be in one of his short films too
>>220864222So every movie he makes as result are le self insert?Literally: 'Scorsese only makes mob flicks because he made 6' tier midwit rhetoric. Confessions of dangerous mind also self insert then?
>>220864290Wow, debunking your argument really rustled your jimmies. Calm down, sweetheart. I won't talk to you while you're upset.
I would kill myself if I watched an emotionally complicated movie and my take away “this wants me to feel bad for being white”
>>220864306>deboonkingNigger, so Confessions of dangerous mind is also a self insert, lil' pseud?Yes or no?Maybe watch more movies?
>>220864338Your argument:>this character can't be a self-insert because the film is an adaptation of a bookDebunking your argument:>Adaptation (2002) is also an adaptation of a book, yet features a self-inser for KaufmanAt no point in this conversation has Confessions been relevant, you're trying to shift the conversation from your initial claim of "this cannot be a self-insert because it's an adaptation" to "all Kaufman movies have self-inserts", but you made the former claim while I never made the latter. I have no interest in defending a position I don't hold, and you don't win anything by this behavior.HOWEVER!In Confessions, the Charlie Kaufman self-insert character is the girl in the pool who tells the MC that his shows are stupid and he's everything wrong with television.
>>220864408>At no point in this conversation has Confessions been relevantIt's also an adaptation of the book. Debunked. Don't cry, maybe watch more movies?
>>220864418>if I pretend to be a retarded troll, I won't lose face in front of strangers!Okay.
>>220864436>if I pretend to be a retarded trollmeanwhile the retards argument is>if Adaptation is meta story about Kaufman failing to adapt a book it means every adaption of the book he makes from that point on is self insertGlue-eating hours. Don't cry tho. Maybe watch a movie?
Matt Brown did end things today unfortunately, rip
>>220864461See, this is what I mean. You have to pretend to be some retarded troll who doesn't understand the conversation because you made one embarrassing mistake and can't admit it was a mistake. You think that if people dismiss everything you say as trolling it means you never made a mistake. But you did. You were still engaging in an honest, sincere discussion when you did so. Abandoning that sincerity and hiding behind a clown mask is not going to change anything.
>>220864554>You were still engaging in an honest, sincere discussionThe sincere discussion in question:>if Adaptation is Kaufman self inserting, making a completely different narrative means every book adaptation he makes is exactly that from that point onSo much crying for being told he made a midwit argument. Poor sneed.
Are school plays really that big of a deal?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8lBaSFDGlA
>>220864046Boring post, you have nothing to talk about and just talks about meaningless bullshit.
