>>224092039You were supposed to tell me he's a white documentarian taking white hallmark writing lessons and applying that to film. Jokes aside thanks for the heads up
https://gofile.io/d/ZRXSmKbw
finna marathon it
>>224092075I don't think he would make threads about this movieI even waited
>>224092075>he's whitelol cmon brahhaha
little /tv/ meme that made it
This is the VOD for me
>>224092039normal subject, but a New York guy!
>>224092039Really funny movie. 4/5
Saw this in theaters its really funny
he invited the experts
>>224092039Let's see how this compares to the real GOAT documentary.
thanks yify
>>224092081thanksreally underwhemled by this in theatres. its just his show but all on a topic nobody even him really cares about as seen by how the ending totally just peters out with a random story about the weird musician guy. no lessons were learned besides 'oh i guess they use a lot of concrete in constructions of buildings, right' and the meme editing that makes the entire theatre do the little half-snort out of their nose every 20 seconds when each new shot mirrors what he's narrating in some too cute by half waythere was potential here and the format works its just a shame that he got bored of his own topic halfway and this is now his big movie
>gore segment
Really can’t stand this faggot
>>224092081Love you negro
does this dork just talk about himself the whole time?
>>224094787yeah it's actually a video essay, that's the bit for his whole style
>annoying voice>keeps blabbing while saying absolutely nothing
>>224092039>After attending a workshop on how to write and sell a Hallmark movie, filmmaker John Wilson attempts to utilize the same commercial formula to create and sell a documentary about the history of concrete. The project evolves into a humorous and philosophical exploration of urbanism, the built environment, and the mundane textures of American life.oh i thought it would be about the history of concrete or something...
>>224092039>Following the finale of his TV show, filmmaker John Wilson searches for a new creative outlet. After attending a workshop on how to write and sell a Hallmark movie, he attempts to apply the same formula to a documentary about concrete.
>>224094787It's an entire genre of documentary called a Diary Film. Guys like Ross McElwee seem to be the biggest influence for Wilson. I like it but I can see why others would be put off especially cause it deviates so much from a standard documentary.
The documentary would be about a hundred times better if his voice narration wasn't there. Everything else the same, just his voice track not included.
He couldve eased in new people at the beginning, I cant recommend it to people because it starts with meta stuff, he could've started the movie with concrete and jump off from there instead of "I did a show, and now Im trying to fund a movie". What's the point of ironic, boring sounding movie name if you are not taking advantage of it
>>224094861>It's an entire genre of documentary called "this dork is talking about himself the whole time". Guys like Ross McElwee seem to be the biggest influence for Wilson.

>>224092081no sound
>>224094888Yeah sure whatever
>>224092075the doc isnt really about anything>>224092926it's notit's neither funny nor informative, it's a curio at best
america is such an ugly place
>>224095210>Not funny?I don't know, anon. got a chuckle out of me when the white director asked "what do advice to an aspiring young chinese judge? "
>>224095257not enough water buffalos and colorful garbage?
>>224092039lmao so quirky
>>224092039Redditor midwit critics are hyping up this slop and Nathan Fielders dogshit circlejerk movie but the reality is Ali G mogs them both
Never seen this guys stuff, is this a good place to jump in? As far as I know he's a Nathan Fielder adjacent deadpan comedy man?
>>224093602He got too big for himself. His material should have stayed small and twee. And most importantly, unnoticed. Him becoming the darling of a SWPL New Yorker set was his doom. If only he had stayed a youtube channel with 50-view videos, to be discovered in 20 years like a relic of 2007, after he had vanished completely. Alas.
>>224095551I would suggest you watch How To With John Wilson first. the show is like less mean spirited nathan for you
>>224095551no, dont skip it all
>>224095257One of thousands of beautiful small downtowns in the US. Obviously this shot doesn’t highlight the architecture at all and color graded to be ugly. So many amazing old ornate courthouses in the eastern and Midwest of the US. The Freemasons did great work.
>>224095551watch his "How To with John Wilson" tv show. Especially the "making risotto" episode. Surprisingly poignant.
>>224094861Watched Remake recently. Shattering.
It’s incredible how even in the background of a random documentary, she can't keep her eyes off the bbc.
>>224095786is that Cailee?
>>224095257Lay off, bro. Let's see what you look like when you're 56
Just another smarmy nu-documentary with nothing to say but with the director thirsty for clout and accolades.
>>224095773I still have to watch that and also Sherman's March because I waiting for it to be online in a higher quality. I should just make it a double feature.
I felt massive sympathy for the band guys dead fiance and then they revealed shes 78 and im like oh? Of course she died of natural causes thats old af, dude is lucky he was in the will. Its tragic when your wife dies at like 55 or younger but if you marry an old lady its not really that crazy>shes supposed to be aliveNot really
Im a wilson fan and I gotta admit if this was an episode itd be below mid tier for his show. Considering him and fielder did films this year Wilson did not rise to the occasion, I guarantee he could've made concrete more interesting. Where's the surprise corruption? The interesting facts? The bizarre characters? The footage of concrete was good but he dropped the ball like the guy got off of Adderall before filming
>>224092039Executive producers include Josh Safdie, Eli Bush, and Ronald Bronstein
>>224093602Agreed. The concept of making it also about getting funding for the doc had potential but like everything else in the film it peetered out
>>224094830Maybe i have low media literacy but I dont see how the stuff he learned about hallmark had any relevance to his doc besides the brief mention of landlords
>>224094888Im guessing you haven't seen his show? If youre not into the show i cant really see why youd watch this unless youre a jew yorkophile which would mean you should see his show...
>>224094891it has sound if you download and play it in a real media player like mpv instead of trying to stream it in the browser like some zoomer moron
google give me the early life of John Wilson
>>224095257Thats not remotely an ugly shot of america, we have many ugly and beautiful places, typically only the historical parts of cities are beautiful
>>224096445Are you medically retarded?
>>224095534Not saying history of concrete is amazing but youre an absolute lame retard if you think Ali G is higher quality content. If you have kids youre birthing the idiocracy future.
>>224094800>>224094861OK thanks, I'm new to this guy. Not really feeling his voice and cadence.
>>224095786Michael imperioli had potential but Kardashians were an insanely weak pull, only way it wouldve worked was to tie into Kanye. The celebrity action was too mild
>>224096543His voice is acquired taste but you really oughta watch the show first, how to track a package is solid when it turns into cryonic odyssey preservation industry so people can be revived in the future when they die
>>224096445He's either of British or Irish descent and he's not a jew just because he grew up in New York and is friends with Nathan Fielder
>>224095811yes
>>224096543I'll admit his voice took awhile to get used to when I watched the show. I do think this movie is his best work, but would recommend anyone new to him first watch the show if only to adjust to his voice. If the movie was the first thing of his I saw I'd probably spend the whole time trying to adjust to his voice.
>>224096588but he looks like ari aster
>>224095786she was eyefucking that tall guy from Euphoria
>>224092792
>>224092039Wait is this actually a documentary on concrete? You guys are making it sound like some youtube faggot is trying to meme me
>>224093602>just peters out with a random story about the weird musician guyIt was a rockumentary all along. The title was a disastrous misdirect, but you can tell he didn't really give a shit about the concrete, he just wanted a free trip to Rome
Concrete is amazing. Everyday things like that don't get enough appreciation. Like we should all spend at least one hour every day marveling over some miracle genius men produced to make our lives better. Like concrete. Or railroads. Or indoor plumbing. The list goes on forever. And earnest, straight up tribute to those things would be great. Instead of some sarcastic joke acting like it's all so boring. I, Pencil, is the only one I know like that. It's about pencils and just all the miracles it takes to produce ONE pencil.Say what you will about Ayn Rand but at least she had appreciation for these things and the men who did them. She said she spent tons of time marveling at trains at what incredible inventions they were and how great men were for creating them. She had the right idea.
Halfway through it. Never realized how funny it is to hear people talk about their menial shit like it's the biggest deal in the world.
>>224096665>his best work This movie had no strong conclusion like half his episodes did, id say its in the middle of his work
>>224097626Its like 60% on concrete
>>224097854I dont really think he was trying to act like it was boring he just did a poor job this time of getting the right people and places involved, the convention was the closest he got to real concrete focus
Never watched anything from this guys before. I kinda liked it, the editing is really nice. It felt a bit too mean spirited towards some of the everyday men and women in it, specially when compared to how it portrays the celebrities and politicians, and at times the actual concrete stuff was really interesting but it was cut short.
>>224095257Obviously it's the color grading retard
>>224092081PRAISE THE GOFROG
Even as just an extra long episode of his show it's not even one of the better episodes.
>>224092039can anyone name all 6 or 7 most beautiful women I have ever seen in this documentary that I would like to kiss and hold hands with?
>>224093602you guys are so dumb. You are really dumb
>>224098513He does kind of sneer at the convention guys too though. Like trying to use piss to make economical moon concrete is an idiotic waste of time and thought whereas his doc obviously deserves to be funded. I still can't get over the way he went >cool.to that guy building the tree. I liked the movie fine, but it's got me starting the think he's like a deeply nasty guy.
I loved his show but I wonder how guys like this can make money and careers with niche shit like this. But to be fair, I thought the Nathan Fielder documentary about Elizabeth Holmes would make no money and it ended up doing really well so what do I know?
>>224092075>white
>>224095257It used to be really colorful, and everything always felt somewhat happy. The millennial design fucked it all up with drab, depressing colors and building design. Everything looks like an overpriced burger shop and I hate that
>gumbuster segment>concrete convention segmentcomfycore
>>224101771Yes he's white and there's nothing to the contrary any of you saying >white have brought up.
Thread themehttps://youtu.be/sFKdZsAkMqs
>RLM building a coffinHow did he do that
This was 5 stars for me for a while; all his bad habits or worst habits were minimal other than the weed wrapper he "finds" on the ground. Then the last 20 minutes he starts clearly leading things, even revealing that he led things in the beginning like the DMX doco and even shows a nasty side while interviewing the musician about his dead fiancée. Shame. Show was better.
>>224097286Now that the dust has finally settled, what the FUCK did he mean by this?
>>224092039i watched 5 minutes and that was it for me, i find this redditor fucking faggot absolutely unbearable and unfunny
>>224092081man. myth. legend.
>>224092039>>224092081I downloaded this and lasted 7 minutes before closing and deleting the file. His voice is really gay and annoying and nothing was funny or interesting. How this shit gets hyped up is beyond me. People are really fucking gay and retarded.
>>224095363bug alert
>>224093602>he thinks it's actually meant to be about concrete
>>224102747>>224102889Oh wow I lasted 100 minutes shut the fuck up faggots
