Anyone here think lb users ate Get Out too highly?

Bruce Melvin get fucked you bitch

Yes. It's just a movie, no more, no less. Nothing particularly special about it, other than being well-made, for what it is. It's undeniably entertaining, but nothing more than that.

Are the wishmaster films any good

I have Plan 9 sitting on my movie queue for ages. Really should pop a pot pill and give it a watch.

I haven't seen Plan 9, but Glen or Glenda? is legit great.

film truly is a shit artform

Provide well-reasoned arguments backed up by peer-reviewed academic sources or I'm not giving your statement a second thought.

their Film History book is great, too

and why are academic film books so comfy?

Are Top 100 lists still a thing?

yes

mayby

>Mon Oncle
MY FUCKING NIGGER

Jim Jarmusch or "Beat" Takeshi Kitano?

what type of comparison is this

>non finnish people cant experience this finnkino

Where do I start with Tsai Ming-liang's filmography? Is Stray Dogs a good starting point?

its funny because he drank a big ol cup of cat semen

the humour derives from how relatable it is

Just pick one, faggot

Liz got dat azz

It's the only one I've seen and I loved it. I don't think it's a bad start, it's not like you need a huge background to get it. At least not for me. If you like Slow/Contemplative Cinema, it's a must watch.

hello loz, how r u?

MY NIGGER

Meant for

It is Joe D'Amato week of the cult movie challenge and to celebrate I would recommend reading the above interview, it's a really nice reflection of his career

good article

Good reviews. Pic related is how to use the diary function.

Detour sucks

Chronologically. His earlier films aren't as contemplative.

...

The Hole

He made that? Had no idea.

Wrong one dumbass

Man, Thora Birch was a fine piece of ass back then.

Birch > Knightley

You already posted this. What is the point of posting it twice? It's not that great.

emley jean on ma arm so in2 me luvven me-me-me more than u!

ima say this once, and once only, because if you read through my posts i have gone out of my way to be polite, to show you kindness, and to disclose my intentions--of which you have not responded at all.

let me make it very clear: not one of you--so full of anger and insecurity--could ever, ever compete with me on an intellectual level. while i have not watched anything close to the entirety cinema, i have watched an incredible amount; i can speak intelligently across auteurs and movements; and i have plenty of worthwhile opinions, some controversial and some sanctioned. but you don't care about this. all you do is hurl ad hominems; you ask nothing about my interests, you ask nothing that would demonstrate your knowledge or challenge mine, and you don't respond when i do try to engage in any meaningful way.

you all are truly flawed human beings. until you start acting like adults, i will ignore you, and continue offering what i have to those worth speaking to.

you embarrass yourselves with your gross stupidity and lack of basic human decency.

and i know: this post will receive nothing but the same kind of belligerence. i'm not going to be surprised--but just know that, the more you post as you have, the less anyone in this world will respect you or take you seriously.

engage me on an intellectual registrar or not at all. these principles should be obvious to you; but they are not, and reaching you seems impossible. therefore, i will give up before i succumb to the same type of anger.

actually this post is wrong
I'm smarter

dude Intolerance is the first Art Filmâ„¢ lmao
