What are your major red flags when discussing film with someone?

>nothing happens
>the characters weren't relatable
>the visuals were cool though
>praising a movie for being meta

>they talk about how movies "age" as if they were alive
>they use the word "campy" as an insult

>It's cheesy and doesn't itself seriously so it's good

So a TV Tropes fan then?
Same reason I hate EVA fags who calltheir show a deconstruction of the Mecha genre.

don't forget formulaic. seems to be a hot buzzword around here lately

>pleb
>anti art
>boring
>shit
>garbage
>grimdark
>

If they mention some foreign garbage I've never heard of or something made before the late 1970s.

They support (((Presidential Candidate I don't support))).

>the characters weren't sympathetic so it sucks

>They analyze films based on literary or sociological standards

>They believe the author's intent is irrelevant to their reading of a film

>They believe pretend to genuiunely enjoy Tarkovski or Godard films

>They like Marvel movies

>They like Michael Mann movies

If they are speaking english and use the word "Kino".

>People who say ''Film is supposed to be entertainment!''
>People who have 2001, Seven Samurai, Citizen Kane, other pleb shit on their top lists
>People who have seen 1 film made before the 50s and think they have taste
>People who like Wes Anderson and think they somehow have taste
>People with most movies on list made in last 20 years
>People who have no foreign language movies listed
>People who think korean cinema is good
>People who have movies from Nolan, Tarantino, Aronofsky, Kubrick, Refn, Snyder on their list
>People who have any comic book movie listed
>People who say comfy/based

When people talk about how a film is shot or edited. Rarely do they know what they are talking about.

>They don't bring up big black cock

These use greentext.

>I don't like ________ director
>Complaints are only about the script

>They create weird, obfuscating rules on what's right and wrong to bring up in a movie discussion based upon their time spend on a indonesian scrapbooking forum

Hate these guys desu

sounds like a bunch of faggots on this thread dont discuss films with anyone at all and have no friends.

>referring to lists
Bruh it's about film discussion not inmb or Letterboxd. Go back to the general.

>on this thread

Go be a subhuman third worlder somewhere else, non english speaker.

When I talk about movies and they respond "Yeah, I enjoy FILMS. I wouldn't know what my favorite FILM is, as I enjoy many FILMS", while clenching their fists and trying to remain calm.

They're a woman.

>"I'm not really a big fan of super hero movies."

>They like Michael Mann movies

I agreed 100% until here. Looks like we're gonna have to fight behind the bleachers at 3 pm tomorrow. Better show up ready, fagget.

when they're memeing like you OP

>"idiot plot"
>"mcguffin"
>"show dont tell" implies a lack dialogue

>normies ask what you like to do
>say you like to watch movies
>they think you watch pleb trash or watch it like the average viewer without analyzing and dissecting every bit of information out of it no matter how bad the flick is
>they think you're just your average moviegoer who sits down and watches it

These fucking morons have no idea the time I put into them, the literature I read up on, the psychological aspects of kino, the emotion it evokes, the narrative it drives, the feelings you let yourself succumb to. They think your like them, but you aren't; you're more and better and live in a world of the utmost beauty, taking your love of cinema beyond a mere screen and enjoy the aesthetic beauty of the real world. Positioning and moving throughout the world to get the best visual experience you can possibly get out of this life, sitting still in a park and letting the sounds run through your vivid imagination as you transcendent while watching the sun set.

I don't watch movies, I experience them.

Seven Samurai is actually good faggot. It's not just pretentious shit, it's actually a fun to watch you have crazy gooks stabbing each other.

This.

Which films am I allowed to like and not get bullied for on Sup Forums?

You can like anything you want. What's important is why you like it.

None. Your taste is shit and mine is better. If you like something I hate it.

It can't be about women I can tell you that right off the bat

*TIPS FEDORA*

Kek, literally 3deep5u

There is only one film Sup Forums Universally agrees is a masterpiece.

I can already tell your a redditard with plebiean fedora sensibilities. Just keep your reddautism to yourself in the GoT and capeshit threads, kiddo.

Add contrarian

This is my favorite TV show. Come at me haters

Wow, did you get your super hot original opinion off Facebook or Twitter?

what's wrong with subverting tropes?

it's pretty much required to make a good horror movie these days

fucking this

>Literally pleb fedorashit

Way to prove him wrong.

they shoehorn in "sjw" " "angenda" and "feminism"

Alien and anything a mew sersh kstew stonefag waifu likes

I generally only discuss movies on superficial level to have something to talk about with people. I don't give a fuck what people think of movies, people have shit tastes but I don't see how that is supposed to move me in any way. Let them like shit, why the fuck do you care.

so what you a capeshitter?

This

This guy gets it.

Aha thanks, thought i was gonna get shit for that desu.

Can you imagine trying to discuss film with anyone else from Sup Forums in real life?

I imagine you all as truly subhuman.

No I just find it entertaining. What would you say your favorite TV shows are? Genuinely curious

>Peanut Untouchable's face

Never ever not funny. I've been laughing at his fucking face since the first thread was posted in like 2008.

How do you know who is who?

Are you a connoisseur of interracial gay porn?

You're welcome. Good to know there's still a few sane anons left.

>Newfags

You make me sick.

Plus people are likely to think you're a pretentious asshole if you articulate any real analysis of a movie, or for that matter, most anything. A couple co-workers of mine sort of indicated they were "into movies," so I casually dropped some real analysis on them a couple times before realizing that they don't really give a shit about movies any more than their superficial entertainment value, and that's fine.

They don't want to have their opinions on movies disturbed by challenging and thinking about them more.

people who watch Steven Segal movies """"ironically"""" to make shitty memes

So that's a yes.

...

this guy gets it

Indeed we are a dying breed. what other stuff pisses you off about discussing film here.

Go away newfaggot. PLWG threads were the greatest threads in the history of this shithole. Enjoy living with the fact you will never ever get to experience them and instead only know this place as /t/v/edditumblr.

>aging = living
Wood and wine "age". Everything does.

>implying Segal shitposting isn't patrician memeing

Fair enough. No need to get hostile, it was just a question.

Guess I really missed out - sounds like some of the best times of your life were spent here, discussing gay pornography.

YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT THEY WERE!

Master and Commander

The general lack of argument on why someone thinks a movie is good/bad. Almost always results in buzzwords.

>trope
most reddit thing ever

>Can we discuss Inside Llewyn Davis some more?

I hate how redditors always ask permission to discuss something.

>le can we just take a moment to appreciate this pleb shit?

ugh why are there no ppl of color in this picture?

Discussing fucking film finance. Everyone just making shit up.

willa is a miracle of this universe

Nothing.

Except it doesn't. Film is static, wood and wine change over time.

>kino
yeah man people call movies kino in front of me all the time

Nigga I wasn't talking about the themes. I was talking about people who say that it deconstructs Mecha. Don't start me with that your Gainax ass.

>mcguffin
got it in one

Nothing is wrong subverting tropes... but calling attention to the subversion is pitiful... (this is looking at Paul Feig-type shit)
