Caught in the act edition.

The mission of /lbg/ is to promote the intelligent discussion of film as art by providing members with opportunities for intellectual discussion, by recognizing patrician taste through examinations and by calling out embryos as they arise.

Finally. I was forced to use Sup Forums and in a thread a few retards called another guy pretentious for liking Hou Hsiao Hsien and Mishima. I had almost forgotten how anti-cinema Sup Forums is.

HHH is comfy

Anybody else trying to list all the shit they've watched in their lives?

No. I did that once years ago in a notebook. A pretty pointless exercise. On my letterboxd account I only log things I know the date I watched them.

...

...

Goodnight, sweet prince.

How do you become a power user?

wher

Yeah I believe I got most of it. Made me realize I watched movies constantly as a kid.

GET FUCKING HYPE

When man

Too bad that it's his worse.

22 May 2017, according to amazon.co.uk.

Machill hates every /lbgl poster because you're all shit taste-having contrarians. Machill knows he has far better taste than all of you. That's why he's at the top of the /lbg/ totem pole. He has a Bluray.com account, a home theater, means what he says, and stands his ground. Machill's a man, while you're just boys.

It couldn't have been just a one-day ban.

so the guy who makes these is actually insane right? 300 post threads with 200 or his own posts.

What is the best film that no one have seen?

Best lost film? We can only speculate, but 3 Devils was probably pretty great.

Go home Machill

I never buy DVDs/Blu-Rays, but I'm thinking of picking up the BFIs release of The Glass Shield.

if there's something you want just ask
also check out this cool webm

>referring to black and white films as monochrome
What gives?

Nice to see you watched La classe américaine, now this is real frenchcore.

Was this your first détournement ? You should check the OSS 117 movies (also made by Haznavicus) if you liked that kind of comedy. Those aren't détournement but it's still a lot of goofy fun.

many "black and white films" are color tinted

fuck blackened white movies

sepia tone master race

What?

How retarded am I for kinda wanting to go pro?
I'm just a sucker for stats.
/thegr1fter

I just want a background picture but the price is too jewish. should be monthly 5 bucks and 10 at most

it's $20 for a year not for a month

To get a back drop tho like he was saying is $50, you have to go patron.

Sorry, I confused Pro with Patron

>slept
m.youtube.com/watch?v=BRzlha-tZS4

$5 / month is still less than $50 / year

But you have to pay it all upfront for a full year's price, that's the issue.

First 4K disc cracked, is it finally time to start looking at upgrading my TV???

Have you guys ever watched recent Italian movies? I mean from the 90s to the 2010s

What is it about trucker films that make them so unbelievably comfy? Is it my severe and debilitating autism?

does anyone have any recommendations for truck films, I've seen convoy, road games and truck stop women and they are all great

ps what kind of sick twisted joke is it that they would share 6 out of 7 discs from the HGL coffret

>coffret
This joke has gone on long enough. Unless you're French, this is called a box set. Get it right.

FUCKIJG HOW BITCH

letterboxd.com/ReneEsquerra/

this movie is so good

maybe not to's absolute best but definitely his most characteristic film

Mommy was dece, hyped for more dolan kino. I like how self aware he is. I'm sure most people who watched it here thought it was a bit too by the books and the only thing he fucked with was the aspect ratio but I think he was very much aware of how 'generic' everything was which is why he made it feel dated with the aspect ratio, year it was set in and the meta soundtrack.

I should have watched a few more akerman kinos today instead though

I think Throw Down is his best, or at least it's my favourite. Sparrow is so light and breezy, with the plot being so slight as to feel almost inconsequential. I found this quote from Johnnie To that characterized the film quite well:

>I wanted to make Sparrow to capture the nostalgic mood of the old Hong Kong. This island was a unique city where the culture of the East and the West came together. Through the eyes of the pickpockets, we see a city that is vibrant, warm and beautiful. Musically I wanted a retro sound that would remind people of the way Hong Kong was. I specifically asked for the 'exotic oriental' sound that was popular in Western movie soundtracks in the fifties to accompany Asian settings or characters. My collaboration with Xavier Jamaux in Mad Detective was a fruitful one. His work with Fred Avril in Sparrow captures the feeling I wanted, and also brought out the musical playfulness that was so crucial to my image.

Also, I had no idea this movie was filmed over three years!

Oh no.. slept is becoming bluepilled.

...

yeah I think it was a pet project they did in between other milkyway shoots. i read that he does more commercial films to fund the other stuff. but all of it's amazing anyway.

would like to hear your thoughts on throw down. i liked it but didn't really get it and i wouldn't place it near the top at all. my fav probably is don't go breaking my heart

We need more posts like this. You guys fell off when it came to shaming embryos.

/lbg/ is a bully-free zone

He's always been, you retard.

all me

What should I watch next?

letterboxd.com/mastro666/

A Brighter Summer Day

What is Tale of Princess Kaguya

watch kino

Nevermind I looked it up.

>mixing cartoons with all that kino

How what?

belle de jour

I definitely have way more watched. I've only logged movies I've watched since the day I started letterboxd which was May 1st, 2015, and that's already 837.

How are there so many editions of VHS of Spring Break

They all come from people/companies I know.

If I had a gun with one bullet in it and was trapped in an elevator with every lbg regular, I'd shoot dropout_gorro in his micro penis and then I would kill the rest of you with my bare hands.

I guess I like the images in Throw Down the best: the smoky jazz club, the video arcade, practicing judo at night in the field of tall grass, the empty judo dojo, Cherrie Yin running down the Hong Kong streets, shedding cash...very memorable.
