ITT: Overrated classicsI can never get into North By Northwest. It just moves too slow for a spy thriller.
The Godfather Part II
>OverratedWhy do dumb children insist that this has ever been a valid criticism of anything?
>>221400847Who shit in your cheerios tough guy
Avengers
Gone With The Wind.
>>221400730It was as good as everyone said

>>221400730You don’t have the patience for a story?
>>221400730north by northwst is fucking incredible are you dumb?
>>221400828>The Godfather Part IIfiltered
Rear Window’s comedic elements are much better than the thriller or mystery and overall would have been better if it was 45 minutes
>>221401433i agree with OPthe plot is too cliche by this point
>>221401784>the plot is too cliche by this pointits not and you aren't even using the word correctly retardits dumfucks like you that think there's anything new under that sun, which is why everything is cringe millenial slop these days
>>221401745it may have been by 1948 or whenever it came out but now its an overdone plot done much better by dozens of other films
>>221401810did you even watch it, because it's entirey unique and hasn't been overdone at allare there similar films? sure. but done better? by dozens???name them then retard
>>221401809i've watched it twice and its just so blandwhy do you rate it?
>>221401776I feel the tone shift during the twist is what sells it. Real shit is now happening.
Vertigo is worse
>>221401841do you want to maybe try typing out your thoughts in a non-third world way so I can tell wtf you're even talking about ramjeet
>>221401831I thought Fugitive was even better than that, and I dont particularlyt rate it that high.Enemy of the State is the one that did that particular trope well. But the point is, that its just not an interesting trope.
>>221401872That is called conversational english, you lonerYou've never heard anybody say ' why do you rate it"? It means, why specif
>>221401872NTA but if you're the same neck beard from the halo thread, you need to get a life. What is your fucking deal? Do you just go around calling people childish idiots in every thread
>>221401745Most hitchcock is boring i findI ever prefer films like Cape Fear (1961) and Night of the Hunter to be better than anything Hitchcock did. They're simply more thrilling - better music, better acting, better plot
>>221401918I feel north by northwest suffers from Aeven Samurai Syndrome where it might have been neat when it came out but by now, every scene has been copied and maxed out a hundred times
>>221401946Yeah I agree. I reckon at the time it would be incredible, an innocent guy getting deeper and deeper into shit and the audience wondering how he is going to get out of such a dillemaBut I've seen shows like the Shield which take that concept, add steroids, and perfect it over 7 long seasons. Watching NXNW cannot even come close
>>221402003>The shield >Innocent guy lol
>>221402003>think the shield is high art and hitchock is overratedthe utter state of /tv/get some fucking taste dork
>>221401946how can I learn to sound like this much of a total pseud?did you just get into film last month anon?
>>221402052The Shield is literally one of the best pieces of art to ever be released
>>221401918You havent heard about shadow of a doubt yet
>>221400847Why do zoomers take objective facts as criticism?
>>221402048Yeah they werent exactly innocent, but I was referring to the escalating danger, which I assume is what people like about North by North West
Cary Grant is fantastic. James Mason is fantastic. The Bernard Hermann score is fantastic. The locations are fantastic. It's fucking classic.
The Shawshank RedemptionJoker
>>221402076>shadow of a doubtHaven't seen that one. I think The Rope was my favourite hitchock. 39 steps too.North by Northwest I found to be a little dull
>>221402090How old are you?Any actor before Brando was shit. They just had this over the top style that was a sign of the timesIf anybody tried to act that way Cary Grant did now they wouldnt even get a B movie role.Also Bernard Hermann is a sign of the times. THat music is shit - too over the top and ridiculous
>>221400730I always tried to like this and can never get through it. Charade mogs this so fucking hard.
hitchcock made like 10 7/10 and a few 8/10 but never a single 10/10
>>221400730One of me dad's favourite films :)
I really liked Rope, maybe I'm a gimmickfag and just like the novelty of the realtime/long take stuff
