Reminder that everything Beethoven did was already done by cavemen playing with sticks, and you're anti-music if you think otherwise.

What I want, you've got And it might be hard to handle But like the flame that burns the candle The candle feeds the flame What I've got's full stock of thoughts and dreams that scatter You pull them all together And how, I can't explain But You make my dreams come true On a night when bad dreams become a screamer When they're messin' with the dreamer I can laugh it in the face Twist and shout my way out And wrape yourself around me 'Cause I ain't the way that you found me I'll never be the same 'Cause You make my dreams come true I'm down on the daydream That sleepwalk should be over by now I know that You make my dreams come true"

Looks like Bruce Melvin and his Jewish boyfriend Winstonne are having relationship problems again
Jonathan Peterson
Looks like dropout_gorro and his pack of discord circlejerk assclowns are out of school
Pretty sure it's going to be like like his two last films before it. No one has said otherwise so far. If you know you want like it, don't go. Personally, I wanna see it, but no theater is playing it here

I'm considering signing up to Letterboxd but I'm hesitant. Is it mostly full of elitist, fart-sniffing movie snobs, or are there some regular bros with better than average taste?
I'm mostly interested in using it as a movie watching journal, and for getting recs. I'm primarily into horror, thriller/mystery and crime.
Ethan Wood
Worth it for the film diary, watchlist, and list completionism. The main crowd is composed of mostly dumb Tumblr girls but you can surround yourself with whoever. Go here archive.4plebs.org/tv/search/text/Letterboxd.com// to find profiles.
Hot take: the remake of death race with jason statham is actually good
Evan Bailey
>>only 3 stars for Crank Its aesthetic works for a few minutes but gets tedious. Was really sick of it by the end.
Landon Evans
ah-bloo-bloo
Bentley Sanders
It's good fun and silly in the right way.
Lucas Smith
no
Ethan Torres
is this cinebro
Ethan Bailey
jeez louise papa cheese
no
Eli Martinez
Free fire was a lot better than Crank familam.
Oliver Parker
they're hardly comparable
Aaron Scott
is my girlfriend retarded
Parker Butler
Crank is a Wagner opera: pompous, self-gratifying, indulgent. Free fire is a Puccini opera: self-assured, restrained, destillied.
Jose Wilson
Emily Jean's movies >>>>>>>>>> Crack = Free Fure
Jack Evans
>flicks like Crank and Free fire are the equivalent of Puccini and Wagner And this why film is and will always be superior art form
Daniel Jenkins
Emily Jean's films are the equivalent of God.

I'm nailing down the taste of /lbg/ and I notice a trend. Also, notice a trend of why people tend to not like Chaplin here. Most of the movies /lbg/ likes deal with murder, aggression, insanity, cynicism, and the general worst of humanity. The question is "does /lbg/ only rate a film highly if it piles on these elements" and "how do those elements make a film better let alone more complex". Is Chaplin therefore garbage because his films don't apply to /lbg/'s thinking.
Caleb Gray
Wrong. Enjoy hell, blasphemer.
Jordan Thomas
THIS IS BLASPHEMY THIS IS MADNESS
Austin King
Also >favorite films are Godard's worst movie and a Spaghetti western
Alexander Moore
How could you say you want to watch the best films and learn about the medium but haven't watched Citizen Kane or Magnificent Ambersons. What's with the gookshit
Jaxon Torres
i like chaplin
Jason Smith
But at best you'd give one of his flicks 3 1/2 stars because they lack the required amount of gore, aggression, and cynicism
Andrew Ward
I've seen citizen kane I like slow contemplative films so I tend to watch a lot of them
Connor Torres
That's because Orson Welles is shit. War Kong Wai long surpassed him. Even Wai isn't that good.
Lucas Johnson
>Wai what's it like to be retarded
Sebastian Bell
I just like horror movies.. What I've seen of Chaplin though has been pretty good.
Justin Gutierrez
i gave the gold rush 4 stars
Landon Robinson
Why do you only watch the gook ones. Also static shots of people looking at walls is the cinematic equivalent of not trying. I could fucking do that. Even double exposures is nothing new.
Hunter Mitchell
I don't know what you want from me
Jordan Long
>The Gold Rush So you're just looking for entertainment.
The Kid and a Woman from Paris are by far his best 20's films
Brayden Baker
>Insulting Sergio Leone Now you are just trying too hard
Kayden Allen
>I could fucking do that. but you didn't. it's the same argument people made against Jackson Pollock, and it's just as invalid now as it was then
Owen Brooks
i only look for entertainment. i hate gore, aggression, and cynicism
Isaiah Wilson
I want you to read a fucking book (not Wikipedia). Actually learn about techniques, blocking, technical developments in cameras and get some better taste.
