Interstellar or Avatar

>epic based on a true story with no female characters whatsoever

I highly doubt there is going to be any user.

Marvel presents a Sony Pictures production Spiderman: Homecoming™ see it in theaters now!!!

fpbp

The English Patient.

LOTR extended editions back to back

There Will Be Blood

I can only think of Troy

LOTR 1,2,3

Interstellar or Prometheus

not really that kind of movie

Supposed to be Kingdom of Heaven or Alexander but they had hack directors working on them.

Sad but true.

Queen of the desert

Baywatch #litty

unfortunately wouldn't count as fellowship is 20th century

also unironically Dallas Buyers Club

>What is this century's Lawrence of Arabia?

Hunger Game had the possibility to become one, but they screwed up.

>gay protagonist in pursuit of his purpose in life leaving waste behind him.
Thats a tough one

idunno, maybe Silence although I've never seen it

I don't think so. Scorsese cast teenage heartthrobs instead of Benecio Del Toro and Daniel Day Lewis as he'd originally planned.

It's so strange it fitted in with Arabs so quickly

Garfield and pudding face were good in it.

he wasn't gay he was asexual

You're saying the 21st century didn't start until 2002? Because Fellowship came out in December 2001.

There isn't one

They weren't bad. But Scorsese had been working on that project since '07. He should have cast adults.

the plane scene

Master and Commander
Thread

is that an epic?

Is anything?

They are also fags so felt right at home.

right,some call it aware that he was gay but he knew it was against nature.

Lawrence of Arabia

If you say so

holy shit I was certain it came out in 1999
yeah, that would be a great pick though it's three cohesive films and not a single one

are you a woman

two vaginas and all

master and commander

That's a loaded question as that film qualifies as an epic. But it is an interesting question as all the replies to this thread have been sci fi films. What's interesting is that Lawrence shares many qualities with sci fi, as it comes from a period of a certain persian fetishism around that time in middle east. The actual story's time period is that of late failed colonialist promise, where the energy concerns finally find themselves at the regions footstep. The sci fi factors here really come alive, in a sand swept still civilization, of foreign deterministic substance. When the movie came out the middle east was on its way to a real socialist giant arab state, beyond anything like the religious totalitarian state of saudi arabia and its bolstered energy production position we see today.

to put it simply this century's lawrence of arabia is an osama bin laden biopic and how he was framed into 9/11

The Force Awakens.

eheh...*couhh*..ahah...*clears throat*..oooheeehee....ahahahhAhahahaAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHhahahahHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHEEEEHHEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHHAAAAEEEEHHH

well between bravo nolan and something that actually made an impact on their audiences, be it due to gimmicky style or not, I'll have Avatar please

Is Lawrence of Arabia any good? Should I watch it?

yes its good,just download bigger copy of it since its 3 hours long.
YIFI wont cut it

>200 minutes

>not epic

THIS. After seeing this film on numerous top 10 lists and seeing it as number 1 greatest epic of all time on AFI's list, I decided to give it a try. BIG MISTAKE! It ended up being a depressing, discouraging waste of time. Let me make something clear: I am a history buff, and I love historical epics. But this was ridiculous! I spent the first two hours interested because I thought it was leading to something significant in the last two hours. I was wrong. A depressing conclusion and an awkward ending rendered this to be an exhausting experience. I watch movies to enjoy them and be entertained, not to be relieved when the finish! If there is any redeeming quality to this film, it is Peter O'Toole's phenomenal performance as T.E. Lawrence. He is the single bright spot in this dark film. He so effectively conveys emotions that when he feels broken, crushed or disappointed, you feel broken, crushed or disappointed. Which is a problem for the audience, because Lawrence spends a lot of time being broken, crushed, or disappointed! Still, I was genuinely impressed with O'Toole's ability to convey his character so perfectly. Lawrence's personal demise is what makes the film so depressing. He starts as a merciful, honorable man, and eventually becomes prideful and arrogant. He seems to think he's a god until he's tortured (and possibly raped) by his captors, and in a disturbing scene, goes on a mad killing spree, awakening to find himself covered in blood with a knife in his hand. War can truly destroy a man. If this movie were 90 minutes, it might have been an interesting historical film about an extraordinary man who did extraordinary things at an extraordinary cost. T.E. Lawrence was a hero who sacrificed for a cause he believed was right, but suffered severe consequences, becoming an emotionally and mentally broken man, a shadow of his former "extraordinary" self. As it stands, however, I could not possibly recommend it. PLEASE, DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME!

I had to google if this was a pasta.
nice work

Who said that?

It's at a lot of libraries too.

I'm not even sure what the last century's Lawrence of Arabia was.

Fuck off

There isn't one and likely never will be. They don't make films on this scale any more
