What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

>>221841234
Nolan’s insensate followers — the Nolanoids — don’t appreciate great composition; their sense of aesthetics has been dulled. In their fascination with new technology, they forget what was achieved by David Lean’s enlarged aspect ratio.

Nolanoids exhibit the least sophisticated responses to image and sound, even when Nolan’s storyboards are essentially unimaginative, as in the sequences of the long-shot connecting Odysseus to Telemachus, the building of the Trojan Horse, the Cyclops that’s more Peter Jackson Halloweenish than Ray Harryhausen fantastic, and Odysseus strapped during the sea storm with the sirens. These don’t match the grandeur of any Zack Snyder set piece or rival the Homeric spectacles of Peckinpah’s The Wild Bunch, the statuary opening of Raymond Bernard’s Les Misérables, from 1934, or the magnificent storm in David Lean’s Ryan’s Daughter. Those sequences were not just flashy; they were emotionally expressive and visually powerful.

Great cinema often disturbs TV-bred Millennials who resist cinema’s spiritual and erotic impact. That was the issue when Zack Snyder’s 300 was misinterpreted as a defense of the Iraq War rather than a revival of mysterious mythology. Nolan’s The Odyssey doesn’t resolve resistance to Western mythology but trivializes it.

ffs outer /tv/ is all Obsession and Odysneed

Anyway I just marathoned the first third of The Deer Hunter (1978) and it fucking sucked so I dropped it like a hot potato. Nothing happens for an hour beyond the MCs acting like absolute retards with zero depth of character and then it just to the fucking end of a firefight in Vietnam and then they go from fighting to getting capture off screen. It's beyond mere garbage, it's basic incompetence. In conclusion Cimino is a hack and don't tell me I got filtered because it genuinely fucking sucked.

>>221845316
I thought The Odyssey would make the Obsession threads stop and it would be nothing but Odyssey threads but no, both are dominating /tv/ together.

>>221850941
You have no idea what you're talking about.
Film is primatily about photography, because photography is the medium itself. The performance is merely the "content" of said medium, the thing that is being relayed via the medium. Not saying that it's irrelevant. But the priorities between both of those are literally the other way around from what you stated.
By the way: Your beloved Nolan would suck at staging theater plays, even more than he sucks as a photographer. He gets the very basics of visual storytelling wrong. On a stage, a lack of colour weighs much heavier than on film, due to the distance to the audience and the need to be able to tell the actors and the different parts of the action apart.

movies are just moving pictures

>By the way: Your beloved Nolan would suck at staging theater plays, even more than he sucks as a photographer.

Nolan isn't concerned with mise-en-scene and has bypassed it all together. He is a master at grand, archetypal storytelling and myth-making. That is the rarest ingredient in a director (Fritz Lang, DW Griffith, DeMille, David Lean, James Cameron, Christopher Nolan)
>>

Joseph Losey's Accident (1967)
>>
the synopsis for this sounds interesting but does it end up turning into a jewish tear jerker?
>>
>>221864797
It's more of a spinetingler than a tearjerker.

Also an interesting film from a historical perspective, as it serves as a "last hurrah" for a certain generation of French actors. The whole project was Delon's baby, and its commercial failure was partly what led him to stop working with auteurs, and instead focus on mainstream cinema. Also one of Jeanne Moreau's last notable roles (along with Fassbinder's Querelle a few years later).

The /r9k/ types did a way worse number on /fit/. That was my first homeboard over a decade ago. I was lucky that I got to experience that board back when it was still fun and funny and motivational. I guess every board is all “blackpills” and culture wars these days though.

I reckon my aversion to the gym (besides being lazy) is internet culture surrounding male fitness. I bet it was much different when Zyzz was around. That's the kind of fitness culture I fuck with.

I'm currently on my Korean movie marathon, tonight's film will likely be Chilsu and Mansu, but the last silent I watched was Tonka Sibenice. It's got some individual great parts (there's a recurring theme of solitude and despair and when real interpersonal connectness happens it's often glimpsed by nonverbal communication, i.e.hands touching briefly, that was one of its peaks) and some scenes heightened by good edition choices but as a whole it felt mildly directed, with a sluggish pace in the second half. But don't let that opinion make you think less of it, I'm glad I watched it.

I think i've pretty much completed films. I get it, you do the IMDB phase in your teens, get a bit alienated and feel like the whole medium is kinda mid. Then you explore arthouse cinema that subverts convention in all the obvious ways. Meandering, conversational French films. Depressing Italian films. Meta Iranian films, and so on. It's all just intellectual entertainment, a different kind of novelty, films only valued for what they are not. You don't like that slow, plotless, Czech film for what it is. You like it for what it is not, what it defies and refuses to be. You keep going, into the most experimental, self-indulgent crap ever filmed. A series of backlit moth's wings. 5 hours of home videos stitched together to look artful. 13 hours of drama rehearsals. At some point it becomes obvious there is nothing profound to be gleaned from any of this. None of this was as enjoyable as watching The Man With The Golden Gun with your dad when you were 8. You've picked up a few favourites, sure, maybe even been a little inspired along the way, but you've also suffered through far more vacuous memes than you ever cared to. Oh well. At least you can sound cool when people bring up Ozu or Visconti now.

If pasta, let me respond to your pasta with another pasta:

The reason you think you completed films isn't because you have refined artistic appreciation, it's because you're an obnoxious faggot desperate at all costs to be thought of as refined, artistic, and tasteful. Any concept, no matter how banal or simplistic, will seem new, fresh, avant-garde, deep, and insightful to you if presented in a slow, indirect, or intentionally obfuscated way. You will consider yourself elite among men for grasping an obvious truth through the subtext of a boring film velvet-hammering it into your subconscious to filter back up into your conscious mind where it should have already sat without needing to watch anything, or really be told anything, if you were of average intelligence.

You are obsessed with the communication of the point, not the point itself - anything would seem sublime to you, with the appropriate sombre window dressing. This would all be well and good were you able to remember that art is primarily a form of entertainment, but you are so ardently convinced of the sublime philosophy of the banal that your passions become pathetic, especially when you go on and on about how anyone who sees through the veil is just like those mean ol' kids who bullied you in middle school and just doesn't "get" the divine meaning of some soapbox thumping lunatic's snoozeflick about depression.

If not pasta:

You can take some steps back and watch a bunch of random shit. You don't have to stop at entry level arthouse, but you also don't have to keep finding more and more "difficult" films. Find obscure films. You'll never run out of weird and interesting movies to watch. Watching forgotten contemporaries of beloved arthouse & classics can be interesting. You will find gems in the process. On the other hand, you shouldn't be seeking out your new favorite films. Having that intent keeps your expectations too high and disappointments just as high. 2000 character limit.

Nolan has a very Japanese sense of mise en scene, he is about efficiency, precision, and high impact. Memento is a great film outright. The Dark Knight is what you get when you cross Malick with Spielberg.

I've already explored Dumont, Denis, Carax and Breillat (not that these are very similiar to Grandrieux, but extremity contemporaries nevertheless)
boy are the letterboxd reviews insufferable for Grandrieux joints though lol. everyone has some le twisted abstract essay about "the brutality of lust" that often have quite little to do with the linear plots of the films.
