I thought the cinematography and music was amazing, but the plot was lacking

Solid 7/10 for me

IT IS NOT SCREENING IN MY COUNTRY ;_;

>tfw Refn is your favorite director but you have to wait for torrents to see his magnum opus

I just made it to see it the last day it was screening where I live. Definately worth a torrent but seeing it in theaters was an experience

It was memeshit

He made it specifically to create new memes

Don't take a date to this movie

I dug it enough. I'll probably see it again

I'm a big fan of memeshit.

I'd say this was more spawned from the power of memes. And yes, will in turn feed back into memes.

>I thought the cinematography and music was amazing, but the plot was lacking
Welcome to 2016:GoT, Preacher,Neon Demon etc...
Everithing people care about is look, sound and spectackle... only internet autists like me :( care about things like plot, character developement and logic...

film is a visual medium

Hated it. Gave me a bad feeling that was hard to shake.

It wallows in it's own depravity. It's depravity merely for the sake of depravity. It celebrates the subject, almost praises it.

This film deserves to be remembered with movies like Salo and Cannibal Holocaust. It has no redeeming value.

>almost praises it.

it does the exact opposite actually

>Salo and Cannibal Holocaust

those are both great films though

This is one of the rare cases where the visuals are so good that I dont care about the plot

>those are both great films though

You clearly have psychological problems, so your opinion is automatically discareded

One film the director was murdered for his perverse lifestyle, literal karmic justice for making such a horrible film, the other was so bad even the director regrets making it.

You're troubled and you should seek psychological counseling.

They you're a retard. Like a brainless child staring at something shiny.

>They you're a retard
ok

*tips fedora*

le muh plot man

Could this movie be the biggest flop of the year? It seems likely.

>isnt out until mid july
>told my wife I want to watch it and she called me a pervert
1080p rip when?

>*tips fedora*

Not an argument. Go stare at something shiny you brainless fucktard.

>plot

Best movie in about three years too.

Well, it certainly takes nothing away from the movie itself. Just confirms that people are utter plebs and they don't deserve to be helped.

I'll take things that never happened for $100, Alex.

you sound very sheltered

>Go stare at something shiny you brainless fucktard.

Oh, I do that on the reg. I'm all about marvelling at dat shiny. Basically my purpose.

You have shit taste and are clearly suffering from autism. This movie has nothing to offer and it deserved to bomb hard.

Not only that, it will seriously hurt the careers of several people involved in this movie.

you'd lose on that one matey.

Best movie since Youth.

>it's an art film

>Le edgy shit eating scenes in Salo
>Le edgy animal murder scenes in CH

You sound like an edgy, laughable fucktard.

Shouldn't you be on Sup Forums posting child porn?

>imagery isn't plot
pls

You are a peasant and you should just focus on your job at Best Buy and stop thinking your brain can do art things. Faggort.

>28 posts
>12 posters

Man, there is some serious butt hurt same fagging going on in this thread

It's ok Refn fags. His career is over. No pain now. It's all over.

that stuff isn't even that edgy

there are way edgier films out there

>Derp derp derp derp!
>Being this butt hurt.

KEK

Whatever you say, edge lord faggot.

...

Is this another jewish pedophilia flick?

my gosh I hope that guy managed to clilmb out of that rut. good luck to him.

>the plot was lacking

what is going on this year every movie that comes out has no plot it's like they are not even trying

That's pretty much the whole film in a nutshell.

>plot was lacking
So? I thought there was plenty of story going on, a very clear transformation takes place. Style is substance, but even if the narrative was lacking, I enjoyed the plot very much

>a very clear transformation takes place.

Horse shit.

She's awkward and weird in one scene, and in the next she's totally in love with herself.

This movie has no plot. It's just a vehicle for scenes of depravity, which the director celebrates and lauds.

I'm starting to think that it kind of comes down to word people vs image people

like people who care more about 'smart' or often political/socially-relevant plots, vs people who are more into aesthetics and sensory experiences and tend to prefer more apolitical stuff and stuff that, if there is any kind of meaning, it comes through more unconsciously and inexplicably

>It's just a vehicle for scenes of depravity, which the director celebrates and lauds

It's almost fetish porn.

Same fag. Learn about the post IDs on the Sup Forums extensions for god's sake

>Learn about the post IDs on the Sup Forums extensions for god's sake

Not everyone uses that shit senpai.

lol, I don't know what that nonsense you're saying about post IDs etc is supposed to be about, but I am not that other guy. you disingenuous faggot, haha.

Caught red handed and now he's butt blasted about it.

That's the transformation, it appears awkward and orced because her environment and associates force it upon her until she undergoes a dramatic change (the one photoshoot where she gets naked and the runway scene) and the change is very powerful, you can tell since the aesthetics reinforce it so much

>Making excuses for a poor story and lame acting
>Trying this hard

Pathetic.

>first date
>go see A Clockwork Orange
>last date

Those two posts aren't even saying the same thing, first of all, and secondly, I only posted the second one. What's the point in bullshitting that you can see post IDs? Because the fact that your bluff turned out wrong, now it's all funnier to me how much you're grasping for some way to feel you have an edge since you have such autistically lame opinions about film

>It's just a vehicle for scenes of depravity, which the director celebrates and lauds.

oooh, you're a little faggot wimp, I see. can't handle art.

What a shit reply. Pure autism at it's worst.

Pro-Tip:
1. Get the old Sup Forums X extension
2. Stop being a laughable new fag
3. Learn to spot same fags using in-topic post IDs
4. Suddenly realize how much of a fool you are, and that everyone is laughing at you
5 ???
6. Profit

*tips fedora*

I really liked the subtle writing

>Fresh meat
Haha cos cannibals
>Redrum lipstick
Haha like that film
>All you teenagers are the same
Haha because she is different than them
>cougar trashes her room
Haha becoz cougars kill her

Fuck. Now I'm hype to hear this with some sweet visuals to go with it.

Pleb: the post

You nailed it, friend! Modest in one scene and then narcassistic in the next! But, friend, unfortunately you have forgotten a scene in between. When she is on the fucking runway and walks to the triangle of mirrors and begins to kiss her reflection. Did your dumbass even watch this film?

What a bizarre and nerdy way to try to win a debate on some film. Pretending you have some super hacker extension to backtrace posts?

Not only can't you appreciate art, you're a lying little DORK

I'm not making excuses, I'm explaining my point friendo. Ellis character arc clearly has setup and payoff for the changes she goes through, delivered through the dialogue scenes. The dialogue, since it's relatively quiet, has much more gravitas when juxtaposed with the soundtrack, and therefore more of an impact on the viewer, and the characters.

You dumb fuck. You're the butt blasted one, you can't even believe that multiple people disagree with you. I'm not calling anyone that dislikes this movie a pleb, but there IS a plot, and there IS some symbolism to make sense of things, albeit not terribly deep.

i just want to roughly fuck elle while squeezing her long pale neck, that's not a crime is it?

REKT

exactly, the fucking pleb autist doesn't even realize that the film is pretty loved around these parts.

>he doesn't understand the concept of beauty

truly a brainless fucktard

I like how the film eroticizes Elle's neck a lot

This movie was great. I didn't have a problem with the acting or the script, I'm surprised people took issue with it. Same with the 'no plot'. Not only was this film more plotful than tons of films out there, it wasn't even Refn's least plot-oriented movie. I thought it did a very good job of capturing that "nightcore" feel; comfy yet brooding. It really stuck with me and did well at getting across the idea of evil, similar to how Suspiria made me feel. Obviously the visuals were amazing, as was the soundtrack, but everything from the symbolism scene-to-scene to the overall critique yet glamorization of shallow lifestyle, really worked for me. It was a fun movie, a disturbing movie, and it was fresh. The loss of virginal beauty isn't a new concept, but The Neon Demon looked at it through Refn's unique perspective, and added the element of personal as well as industrial standards of beauty and the "death" that comes with it

>there are people who say The Neon Demon has "no plot" but will praise whatever new capeshit is out where it's the same thing literally every time

at least this film tried something new, and isn't just "good versus evil gotta kill all the bad guys and save the world" or whatever.

>FOOD OR SEX
>REAL LOLITA SHIT
>YOUR NAME IS BEAN?
>YOU!

Claiming that this movie had no plot is borderline ridiculous. It's literally so heavy handed it hits you over the head with the same symbolism and theme over and over again. In that way it's the comlete opposite of Only God Forgives, with its weird ass Oedipus complex bullshit that made very little sense.

> r we havin a party or sumthin?

Thanks captain obvious! You should take that sage wisdom to any of the GoT threads. They could use a real genius like you

My theater had two other people in it, one of them was an old black guy who left during a gorey scene and the other was a nu-male

I saw it 100% alone. Apart from the cutie cleaning girl who entered the room during the necrophilia scene

my point is that the visuals are and always have been more important than the plot.

only normies care so much about plot/story.

8.2/10

Was a very good movie but not for everyone. Both my gf and her friend loved the shit out and were actually stunned and shocked, they're both plebs though.

Haven't seen it, but it's a masterpiece.
