First Voyage of time got a new poster.

And secondly new movie confirmed.

"On June 23, 2016, reports emerged that Malick's next film will be titled Radegund, and will depict the life of Austria’s Franz Jägerstätter, a conscientious objector during World War II who was put to death at the age of 36 for undermining military actions, and was later declared a martyr and beatified by the Catholic Church. Set to play Jägerstätter is August Diehl.[52]

The film is set to begin production in Studio Babelsberg in Potsdam, Germany in the summer of 2016, but it will also expand to other parts of Europe. The casting agency Han & Oldenburg also reports a shoot in Brixen and South Tyrol, located in northern Italy, which will occur from July 11, 2016 through to August 19, 2016."

That looks a bit tacky desu
Why didn't they release a full version of this?

Trogger warning

>mubi

>KinoKids

The only film site where you don't need to watch trannyfuckers parade their fucking shit or tumblr mods.

>kino
Malick makes art you tasteless capeshit kiddo

looks like quite a rigid shooting schedule for a director whose shoots are everything but. hope he sticks to a screenplay this time and actual dialog. also the story sounds like a spiritual prequel to Jim Caviezel's character in The Thin Red Line. i wonder if the story of Radegund influenced Malick way back when shooting that film and if he had this film planned for a while now or if this is more of a work for hire project.

possibly nixed because too similar to The Tree of Life poster?

Well, wasn't Weightless announced in 2011 and we are maybe getting it now?

That Ragerunder film will be out 2021...

>paying to watch flicks

I use it to just log what I've used.

Don't go around assuming things.
And besides it is free, just keep inviting fake friends

oh indeed, but the delay on that was because he shot two films back to back and his post-production schedule seemed to be really lax and loose. odd how a film shot way back in 2012 still hasn't been released. they also filmed for 3 months. i think i misread the press release to suggest it will only film for 1 month. my bad. seems it will have a longer shooting schedule but shoot for 5 weeks in Germany AS WELL as a month in Italy. btw, can't wait for a trailer for Weightless. hope we don't have to wait much longer.

my list:

The Thin Red Line
The Tree of Life
Days of Heaven
Badlands
The New World
Knight of Cups
To the Wonder

mind you, i find all of his films extraordinary with the exception of To the Wonder. i just could not connect with that one.

its good you couldnt jiggy with ttw
means u ahvent been depressed like her

this shit flew way too close to home for me

Knight of Cups is the most beautiful movie I've ever seen. There's like 20 different parts it feels like this movie is talking right to me

>Knight of Cups is the most beautiful movie I've ever seen.
yet you watched a shit encode of it with VLC

yeah, could be. i'm not the depressive sort. or been in a relationship with a woman with those issues. i tend to stay away from bipolar, even though she wasn't really that, was she? her mental state was kind of ill-defined, i guess to make it more universal. however, i also could not connect with the priest's loss of faith arc. beautiful film, though.

It is very nice looking film, ye, but what you people (I bet it is because most of you use bad speakers or headphones) don't talk about its (and other Malick films) good sound design.

I could listen to the bluray of it at near maximum volume of my 5.1 Genelec speaker system and it was fantastic

indeed, Malick's sound design is beyond superb. his team really take it to another level with their recordings. how his films are not constantly nominated by the academy and lauded for it and action films are is upsetting. unfortunately, i have a weak system at home and did not catch his last two films in the theater. however, i have seen The This Red Line at my local art house as well as The Tree of Life and The New World. i think the nature sounds from TNW are top notch stuff.

I saw Tree of Life with my dad recently and was blown away. Since then I've been going through his filmography chronologically. Finished Badlands, Days of Heaven and TTRL and loved all of them. However, I've been stuck on The New World. I really don't care for Colin Farrel or for what I've heard of the narrative or romance. I've heard of a lot of people hating it, too. That in itself isn't bad but it's made intimidating by the three hours running time. What's your guy's opinion on TNW? If I love the other movies I mentioned will I most likely like TNW or should I brace myself for a hard watch?

smart analysis of koc

Just watch it. No need to ruin it by third party comments if you haven't seen it yet

>malick
>kino

>meme spiral

TNW is a superb, finely crafted film about America's first days and the clash of civilizations between natives and the British. really wonderful acting by Q'orianka Kilcher - quite sad her career never really took off - and great performances by Farrel, Bale, and abridged ones by Plummer and Thewlis. two sequences i always go back to when thinking about the film are the superbly crafted fight/battle sequence outside the fort and a montage sequence when Smith is recalling his affair with Pocahontas. hope that didn't spoil anything for you. the ending is also one of the more beautiful scenes Malick has ever filmed, which is saying a lot.

Watch more films.

Kilcher was good.

It's just too bad the other half, Farrell, is really fucking bad like hoooolyyyy shit he wasn't made up for Malick's contemplative voice over stuff or the way Malick makes his actors work around the scene.

Bale and Affleck did it far better

>mfw legit felt sad when Pocahontas was largely emotionless after she sees Smith first time in a decade.

gddmn

>This is what Kierkegaard meant by the “leap of faith”. Faith, far from being an infantile, fideistic adherence to things we know are not true, is instead the power to live, move, and have our being completely in the moment, absent the anxiety caused by being locked within time’s prison, wherein every passing moment is also forever lost.

Michelstaedtr:

>Nor is any life ever satisfied to live in any present, for insofar as it is life it continues, and it continues into the future to the degree that it lacks life. If it were to possess itself completely here and now and be in want of nothing-if it awaited nothing in the future-it would not continue: it would cease to be life.

When Bale says "Desire so deep... I'd throw my life away", Imogen Poots' character alludes to this when she says "Don't go back to being dead. What do you want?"

Thomas Merton:

>One of the chief obstacles to this perfection of selfless charity, is the selfish anxiety to get the most out of everything, to be a brilliant success in our own eyes and in the eyes of other men. We can only get rid of this anxiety by being content to miss something in almost everything we do. We cannot master everything, taste everything, understand everything, drain every experience to its last dregs. But if we have the courage to let almost everything else go, we will probably be able to retain the one thing necessary for us -whatever it may be. If we are too eager to have everything, we will almost certainly miss even the one thing we need.
Happiness consists in finding out precisely what the ‘one thing necessary’ may be, in our lives, and in gladly relinquishing all the rest. For then, by a divine paradox, we find that everything else is given us together with the one thing we needed.

Knight of Cups is avant-kino

>TRYING TO DRAW LINES
>WHERE THERE ARE NO LINES

Did you learn NOTHING from The New World?

...

>it's a "malick fans are autistic" thread

haha epeck meme XDD i bet these faggots dont appreciate true kinographie like game of thrones!

>It's a 'empty fucking post' rerun of a rerun post.
back to letterbox thread faggot

...

yes, i also found Farrell to be the weakest of the bunch, but i don't let that ruin the rest of the film for me. i don't think he was as bad as people say around here. he was a serviceable enough and did his part.

she had fully adapted to her new life with Rolfe. she was resoundingly different from the emotional young woman she was earlier in the film. yet the final scenes playing with her child reminded the viewer she was still a joyful woman at heart.

>The Seducer doesn’t want love, he wants to experience the mood of falling in love.

>You don't want love, you want a love experience.

Farrell's Smith, to me, was only believable in the very late parts of the film (I assume this is when Farrell was comfortable with Malick's way of filming) when they show him at 'Far North' or wherever it was and the decade later part when he meets again with Pocahontas.

Oh - and the tribe scenes at the start when Smith spends time with the tribe. Outside of these moments I couldn't buy his act and it was way too 4th wall breaking to me.

Not sure what to make of her ending, dying -becoming so ill so suddenly after meeting Smith.

Nearly identical line in Mad Men directed at Don:

>You only like the beginnings of things.

...

...

Dead fuckin' thread but that ain't stopping me from dumping a few images before I go to bed.

Has there been a more phenomenal opening than The New World's?
>Wagner drone evoking the primal sounds of creation and the great river, building up to the first encounter between two different cultures
>scenes of the natives at peace with nature
>the majestically slow ships closing in to an alien land and an alien peoples

Terrence has such great taste in music. Tree of Life soundtrack is very nice.

>it's a "the score and cinematography carries a malick film" episode

My nigga, I was just about to post this.

One of my favorite opening scenes

Apparently there's some St. Vincent in To the Wonder but I can't remember which scene

>audio-visual elements carry a movie
u got a problem m8

The scene there reminded me of a scene in Knight of Cups where Rick is in front of a television (it's just blue-white in color as opposed to orange)

...

That scene when Farrell's dancing with the natives by the fire.

>My America.

nearly broke up tbch

yes, really beautiful. plus the ending. nearly brought a tear to my eye.

i think it was just a song, not an appearance by Annie or the band.

Yeah, i couldn't actually find the part where that was so I said fuck it

>We will never get to see the five hour cut of TTRL

It hurts, up there with the best war scenes in my opinion

youtube.com/watch?v=S2wL9AawlDA

I liked it but wouldn't fault anyone for disliking it

its such a long film that at first it was bit too heavy. cant wait to rewatch it, i'm sure i enjoy it more

>still no 5 hour cut of Tree of Life
At least we're finally getting Voyage of Time / Q

This is a good analysis, I found another pretty good one from a blog that was posted on /film/

moviesfilmscinemablog.wordpress.com/2016/04/17/knight-of-cups-and-the-transcendent-autobiography-of-terrence-malick/

Knight of Cups is my favorite Malick, it feels different than his other films, more real or something, but also fantastical. Looking forward to Weightless

youtube.com/watch?v=JmnYqKl1LzE

Who /changedminds/ here?

I hated Tree of Life. I knew exactly what it was going for. Big cosmic stories framed around the trials and tribulations of a handful of lives + fancy cinematography and a distinctly spiritual aesthetic = my crack, but I hated it.

Then I saw Knight of Cups and now I'm officially a Malickboo

I used to fucking laugh at his films like how were they even real

and then they just clicked

Are we posting Malick music?

I'd post Solveig's Song but the version that is on Knight of Cups isn't in Youtube, or I haven't found it.

Weightless and Voyage of Time this year.

JUST

ebin meme XD

How did Malick snap a shot this lewd

>tfw none of your friends have even heard of Malick
This is the only place where I can discuss movies like his

Just put it on next time you watch films and don't even say a word about what's it about or who did it or what.

...

Weightless next year probably, it seems beneath Malick to not premiere his joints at anything but Cannes, Venice or Berlin

Malick has gotten very lewd in TTW and KoC

>not on r/films

there's barely any film discussion here mate. its purely got capeshit, memes and blacked. this thread is a miracle if it reaches 150 posts

I'm too tired to keep up posting stills and way too lazy to make webmemes.

we had two pretty damn good KoC threads last week that were fun and relatively pleb-free and this one's off to a great start already.

please don't let it die

I'll check it out
>Do this
>Get called pretentious
They'll always be plebs. I can't change that

...

just one month away, lads

>Those moments in TNW where Colin Farrell visibly couldn't hold his real life keks inside him.

Fukken idjits should focus on 'saving' some films that actually need to be saved, what's wrong with current availibility and quality of the New World bluray?

>tfw still have to watch TTW

is it good? where does it rank in his kinografie?

It's my favorite from his filmography with KoC.

Apparently it contains three different cuts of the film

I've seen the 172min cut (longest available).

Will it be longer than that?

>tfw The new world is hated when it is top kino

>High-definition digital transfers of the 135-minute theatrical cut and the 150-minute first cut of the film
Looks like the extended is still the longest version

Eh, that is a shame.

Bale is getting blown away by the Dubs of Weightless

How does he keep getting funding?

It's being reassessed more favorably now
I expect the same to happen with TTW and KoC in a few more years

>august diehl

nice

There are more reasons to funding a film than just straight out profit.

Malick is a hack, he hasn't made a single kino with superheros or dragons in it.

...

...

It's definitely closer to KoC than his other films, but KoC is one of my favorites and TTW just didn't click. For sure worth watching though, I did like it more on my second watch.
