What is the most pretentious movie of all time?
What is the most pretentious movie of all time?
anything by malick those feet clean
Paris, Texas
The Oscar winning Crash
Good answer. I'd go with Godard (dealer's choice) myself. But then I just don't like the guy.
i've never seen it but probably upstream color
The Limits of Control
Why are her feet so dirty?
> i've never seen it but probably upstream color
fuck off
I haven't seen it either but he's probably right.
ive seen it and hes right though
Cloud Atlas
I've seen it and and are right.
I've probably seen it and he's right
you're right
he was right
the director peaked with Primer
anything about god
primer was shit
Probably something Dysney, maybe Brave.
You got to take into account that while an adult movie could be pretentious, a kid's pretentious movie is far more "THIS IS THE RIGHT OPINION" disguised as something else, and time lasting, the very things pretentiousness honors.
Amelie
Film Socialism
The Fountain
Only Dogs Forgive
I've never seen it but you're probably right
>primer was shit
nice meme, need the flowchart?
The Dark Knight Rises
calling things "pretentious" is such lazy criticism, but it's no surprise it's so common in a society obsessed with making everything as lowest common denominator and cloyingly accessible and inclusive as possible.
Anything by David Lynch.
Holy Mountain / El Toppo
i don't think a flowchart is gonna make the movie not shit
all right
I'd add My Dinner with Andre
American Beauty.
That one film where a young woman kidnaps lonely neckbeards and forces them to clean her feet with their toungues.
gay opinion
The Seventh Seal
Most films by Richard Linklater.
Textbook reddit garbage.
2001
Anything by Gaspar Noe
...
The Revenant.
You dumb faggot
the flowchart will help you understand the time travel though, and likely you think it is shit because 'it doesn't make sense' or 'it is too jumbled'. If your complaints are with the acting or cinematography then you can give the budget a glance and see the film as more of a character piece about two regular dudes trying to understand how time travel works.
...
Blacked: The Musical: The Movie
rekt xD
when people talk about primer it is literally only ever about the specific mechanics of the time travel, which are fucking irrelevant
How the fuck is that movie pretentious
It's pretty easy to get
i liked this moving picture film. i'm sure you just didn't understand it.
Waking Life by Richard Linklater
>i didn't understand some of those words and NOW I AM MAD
not even nearly normie/popular enough to be reddit
Gummo
What? How the fuck was this pretentious it didn't even try to be intellectual
No one is surprised you are dumb as fuck
>Gummo
pure kino my man
Waking Life and Boyhood are turbo reddit flicks. Extremely sophomoric and easily digestible movies that pretend to be something with more value.
not him.
i liked the film too, but it is pretentious as all hell.
My dude.
enter the void is the only pretentious one.
irreversible is just edited backward, if that's too much for you you're master pleb.
I can't understand how you can find pretentious seul contre tous and carne
i don't think you know what that word means, rebecca.
It tries to do everything and the movie ends up a mess. That scene with the angels was trying to hard to be deep and profound.
Lost in Translation
El Topo is glorious.
>it was a mess
ah ha! so i was right in assuming you just didn't understand it. i'm not even a junior detective. sad.
Anything by Shane Caruth really.
Beyond the Black Rainbow.
Also most of the answers in this thread are shit.
What is there to understand? It's just a messy remake of the director previous film.
Why do you think it's not pretentious?
holy motors like wtf was that shit
Fair enough, I've only ever actually watched Enter the Void and just assumed everything else was just as bad.
Good news because Irreversible and I Stand Alone both sounded interesting to me (but then I watched Enter the Void first)
i havent read your post, but he is probably right (yet to read his post too)
he probably has chimp level IQ
Boyhood. Ignoring all RLM memes about it in entirely, it relied on its gimmick and pretty much did nothing else. Just a boring movie that thinks it's a lot more than it is because it took a long time to make.
nothing. it's just a dude about a movie who loved a few girls and didn't want to choose just one.
why are you bringing up race politics?
Why are you pretending they aren't relevant, Mordecai?
what a shit answer
I know that but it's done in a convoluted way. The sci-fi moments in the film seems useless and add to nothing. Like the scene were Nemo and Anna met in space.
Also, I couldn't get past how the sequence between young Anna and Nemo is rip-off of from lovers of the arctic circle.
Anyone wanna try to explain why? Pathetic answer.
The fact that Irreversible is edited backwards makes it shit though.
The entire second half of the film is completely pointless.
only god forgives
it's not sci-fi you hayseed, it's the future, when he's much older. i haven't seen the arctic circle. anyway it's not convoluted, you're just dumb, i've decided. it's just mean to be an entertaining story and you want to shit on it because it's "too complicated". why are they in space?! there's no reason to go to space! gas yourself.
you didn't get it
a clockwork orange
>Writer: Charlie Kaufman
>Director: Paul Thomas Anderson
You're suppose to make a movie, not a novel, guys.
>gas yourself.
Rude.
Shop Girl. Steven Martin at his "I'm better than you in every way" pretentious worst.
AMERICAN BEAUTY
>This plastic bag is so deep and meaningful. You probably dont get it. Heh kids.
Birdman
Although to be fair its poling fun of capeshit was perfect timing ans enjoyable.
DING DING DING DING
Werckmeister Harmonies, no contest.
Under the Skin
Not really. pretentious implies a high horse approach to tackling an issue. It is easily defended with claims that those that don't like it, just don't get it.
...
>Clockwork Orange
lol wut
Crash is the only correct answer
Synecdoche, New York
what a huge fucking waste of time that movie was
unironically American Psycho
oh fuck off you twink faggot
*Poking
Fucking phones
just from your post i have decided to never see this movie but I WILL hate it forever
Probably whatever garbage Disney shits out every couple of months that tries to pretend it has any substance or depth.
Another Earth
The Happening
No Country for Old Men
