Nobody on this board has seen Videodrome, OP. You're better off spamming got memes or porn if you want attention.
Have a bump because it has best waifu.

David Cronenberg > John Carpenter

I've seen it, but I didn't really understand it. I was young and pretentious at the time, perhaps I should revisit it at some point.

>but I didn't really understand it

Its a large critique on the idea that violence in media causes violence in real life. Mixed with body horror for good fun.

I guess I vaguely understood it then, but body horror is probably what threw me. My mind just assumed it was a dumb movie because it was resorting to gore and crap.

>it's a media causes violence episode

post yfw you realise Sup Forums is the real Videodrome

>acting as if videodrome is some artsy masterpiece
What a shitter you are

But it is an artsy masterpiece. It's not Cronenberg's best film though.

70s Carpenter > 70s Cronenberg

80s Carpenter > 80s Cronenberg
It's close though. Both of them were at their peak in the 80s and made masterpieces.

90s-current Cronenberg >>> 90s-current Carpenter
Cronenberg made some great stuff in the 90s and 00s and can still make a good film, Carpenter's only good post-80s film is In the Mouth of Madness.

I liked eXistenZ better...

Correct except for
>Carpenter's only good post-80s film is In the Mouth of Madness
What is They Live?

They Live came out in 1988.

Yeah, I'm retarded.

>implying videodrome is dark hidden gem
lmao pleb
even my mom watched videodrome

Videodrome is well known pleb. Everyone on this board has seen it.

Go back to /r/movies if you want to feel like a patrician, everyone there's an even bigger pleb than we are.

That bit where his stomach vagina turns that guy's hand into a pipe bomb gets me every time.

YES I LOVE THIS MOVIE

WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A MODERN VERSION OF THIS BUT WITH THE INTERNET BEING USED AS THE VIDEODROME

This desu

As much as I hate unnecessary remakes, an internet update would actually make a lot of sense.

get ready to the 100% cgi flesh

i think that the guy who directed the evil dead remake and don't breathe could definitely do it

Videodrome isn't just a horror flick buddy

I doubt he could pull off the social commentary/satire

post more debbie faggot

well then who you pick to direct and write the new version?
all the veteran directors like john carpenter and george romero have lost their touch and are too old and tired to do it

Why is he in the underwater city from Phantom Menace

bump i'm not letting this thread die
i want to talk more about videodrome

Shinya Tsukamoto

how was tetsuo 3 by the way?

>LONG LIVE THE NEW FLESH

WDHMBT?

Let's pretend we "get" a movie that is random weird shit for the sake of weird that pretentious people force themselves to like in order to feel patrician. Like Eraserhead.

Why remake a precinct classic? If anything it predicted the internet and even shit like VR. A modern remake would need to look forward even more, not just comment on current day technology.

Are you implying Videodrome is hard to get?
Because you're clearly retarded if that's the case.

They'd fuck it up. They'd have nothing new to say.
Watch Suicide Club and Noriko's Dinner Table for your existential new media fix.

Once and a while Sup Forums talks about a legitimately great film, and I'm happy to be a part of it.

what are some other woodskinos?

LONG LIVE THE JEW ISH

Fuck off back to Sup Forums you autist retard.

Fucking triple kike

vampires

Listen, I'm a huge John Carpenter fan...but once he hit the 90's he lost his edge.

Vampires was proof. It didn't have that "Carpenter" feel to it. At all.

Same with Ghosts of Mars.

He made so many good flicks in the 80's.

Escape from New York
The Fog
The Thing
They Live
Prince of Darkness
Big Trouble in Little China
Christine
Starman

I wish I knew what the fuck happened to him...

Theres definitely a lot of ambiguous shit in it

HIS TWITTER IS PURE KINO

#BLM ON SUICIDE WATCH

>posting filthy frank
>calling anyone else anything insulting

murder yourself and any relations immediately

Learn to read: There's nothing to get. It's just weird for the sake if being weird.

so you're saying once he got a budget, he lost the "john carpenter feel,"

You're just not seeing it because you're retarded.
True but the meaning isn't that hard to get.

>finalmente accedí al video-dromo
en serio, david? de verdad?

>in the Criterion collection
>not an artsy masterpiece

heh, sure thing kid

Once Upon a Time in America is ESSENTIAL woodskino.

criterion.com/films/578-armageddon

This film and Network
holy shit they exploited the times well, with videos and tv exploding like it was
"it's just torture and murder. No character's no plot. Very, very realistic. I think it's what's next" - such gold

#REDPILLED

I have. Thought it was meh

How can one man be so based?

...

I don't get it. how does that photo prove trump is going to win?

Hillary panders Black Lives Matter and other extremely far left groups and those groups shit all over America. The average American won't vote for someone who panders to such destructive filth.

...

lol mars and vampires didnt have a budget

hes also a rapid conspiracy nut and was posting about how the society was going to collapse if obama was elected
>inb4 hurr durr it did
not by any standard prosperity meter

looks more like a student protest? Black people saying America isn't great because of racism isn't new and it's hardly anything to get your panties in a bunch over. They're making a political point.

Cop
