Jacob Price
Thanks guys Most of them are straight up garbage for plebs who watch capeshit like you. None are good
Tyler Barnes
>10 cloverpleb lane is good Go back

Hello
I'll agree with everything bar The Revenant. The sheer emotional force of this film separates it from all the rest. I remember going to the cinema to watch it, was a bit hungover and skeptical to say the least, but was leaving the screening weak at the knees. Please remove The Revenant from the list you have posted.
Thanks.

Cloverfield lane, Sicario and Drive were good.
Hunter Parker
I literally had to bite my tongue to keep myself awake during the Revenant and I have no problem with long slow moving films like 2001 space odyssey or Once upon a time in america
Ian Price
Ill consider it but some part of me thinks inarritu is a tryhard and with this a tarkovsky hack. The cinematgraphy detracted from the realness almost with the long take making it feel scripted and pretentious rather than filmlike.
You have the taste of a girl
Dominic Moore
The Social Network is good and La La Land is quite a relevant musical for the state of the times. Besides the fact of how ideally it portrays LA which in reality is more than 50% Latino.
Tyler Barnes
>itt popular movies of the recent years
Benjamin Perry
lol revenant is well shot but it's pretentious as fuck with no real substance just like birdman, inarritu is a hack
Evan Hill
Can't say I agree, watched some of the movies listed and I liked them, so fuck you. Also, weird that you lump main Oscarbait 2016 with the others. Other than your opinion, I don't see similarities. Well maybe "2deep4u", but the scott piligrim, ww and Pacific Rim will fall off.
Anyway, speaking of Arrival, I'm late for the party and watched it for the first time the other day. What was the point of space squids? The movie is not about ayys, it's about Louise. I feel like that there are two separate movies stitched together for some reason.
Oliver Turner
It's good until it veers into JJ's fanfiction
Jaxon Robinson
You think superhero movies are the only shit movies being praised by """""""""people"""""""""" over the years?
Caleb Watson
I'll trade you IT for Birdman
Michael Cooper
Nah it is reddit the entire time. Mew a shit.
Mason Clark
>Mew a shit.
Jacob Reed
The fags who like that shit like wonder woman pleb lane and arrival like nolan and the others.
Parker Robinson
The ayylmaos and the science were only plot devices for the actual narrative of the mother-daughter relationship. It is by no means a "hard sci fi" movie about aliens.
The opening and the ending sequences are about their relationship. All the major scenes are intercut with it. And even when it's in the present narrative it's either a heavy close up of Amy Adams for half the movie or a camera placement of her characters point of view.
But the ayylmaos were necessary for that narrative to be delivered, on the surface it seems like the film deals with them but in reality it's all about Louise and her daughter.
Ethan Baker
You seem like a highly eloquent intellectual individual. You forgot to mention reddit kino imdb etc
Kevin Brown
I found the greatest pleasure in the rollercoaster of quick paced action scenes (brilliantly shot to my taste) and ethereal prolonged tarkovsky-esque scenes of nature and protagonist wandering around. The changes in the pacing totally subverted my expectations and were imo masterfully placed. Thats why I was a bit dissapointed with the last act, where the pacing smoothed into an average western rhythm. So even if some of the parts of the film were a bit too fast or slow, and I heard this from a lot of people, the way they are assembled in the final movie was very masterful.
Jacob Gray
Fair enough, compared to the others the revenant is at the least decent
Noah Wilson
You leave Drive out of this you gay cunt
Samuel Gomez
Wow...
This is the first time someone makes a thread like this, listing films for the pleb, on which I agree 100%
Good jop, OP. Truly
to be fair I do like The Dark Knight, Revenant, Sicario and Drive, but I know they aren't even in the top 1000 films made until now list
Nicholas White
Checkmate asshole, capeshit is getting better score than this cliche pile of crap
Aaron Gray
Thanks mate
Jeremiah Hernandez
I wouldn't know, I avoid many of the modern films unless I hear something good about them.
Sebastian Taylor
You probably watch 80% or worse trash then. Yes they do.

Bad movies =/= pleb movies. Refns social autism results in one but precludes the other. That is all.
Christian Clark
Arrival is part of a recent series of movies I'd describe as Dunning-Kruger Sci-Fi. Along with Interstellar and to a somewhat lesser extent The Martian, they perfectly play to the crowd that fancies themselves as (and, to be fair, may truly be) smarter than average audiences but are not as smart as genuinely "smart people." They are movies designed to make the audience feel smart by introducing complicated and heady concepts, and then holding the viewer's hand the entire way through until there is next to nothing to be left up to interpretation.
If you didn't already know the twist in Arrival by the time she was in the milky section of the ship with the aliens AT LEAST, you perfectly fit the audience I am talking about.
There is no reward for being smart while viewing these movies because everything is eventually spelled out in big fridge magnet letters. Any clever idea is made so transparent that even the most simple in the audience will get it. It also removes any reward for rewatching or trying to figure out what you just saw.
Granted, there is a difference between Arrival and Interstellar. I think where Interstellar was pretending to have a brain it actually didn't have, Arrival has a brain that it is refusing to let the audience use.
Completely disappointing movie.
Also >so that just happened
Parker Williams
Agreed, but without: Interstellar Inception 10 Cloverfield Lane Donnie Darko Ex Machina
Kevin Phillips
Those movies are bad movies praised by plebs there's no way around it.
Gabriel Wilson
>the revenant hollow screenplay but it was beautiful to watch >birdman tremendous performances and nice commentary on current hollywood trends >interstellar bogged down by some of nolan's tedious dialogue and stupid ideas but it's not terrible >inception this one i can kind of agree but don't tell me you didn't think the spinning hallway scene was kino >arrival classy and accurate portrayal of the short story, nice fleshed out concepts. the alien scenes are terrific >the social network for the most part, it is fictional but it's an informative film that delves into the inner workings of business and entrepreneurship >10 cloverfield lane this was good until the last 10 minutes. the last 10 minutes was the biggest slap in the face ive ever felt from a film >drive a stylistic neo-noir, with some great action sequences and subtle performances >donnie darko i think this was a fluke by the director/writer but gyllenhaal does well in it, although i dont think the movie makes much sense, but at least it's true and consistent to itself >ex machina one of the more thorough films that ask the question of ai and consciousness. absolutely great visual effects and performances by all involved >captain america agreed, retarded capeshit >the dark knight over burdened by the fact it tries to be so much more than capeshit but ultimately is still capeshit. heath ledger was good though >sicario well paced crime drama that begs the question whether judicial corruption is actually needed even though it can be seen as ethically or morally wrong >prisoners i just remember hugh jackman gave a fucking great performance in this >easy a watched this once about 6 years ago, dont remember it. amanda bynes suicide note i think >scott pilgrim haven't seen it but im a fan of edgar wright, he has a good eye >wonder woman >pacific rim >moonlight >lalaland >neon demon haven't seen these
Adrian White
You dont know plebs then. There's no way around it.
I live and know plebs. They dont fucking watch Refn because 30 minutes in there is like 3 lines of dialogue, every character acts wooden, scenes last forever in flashing neon light, and theres fucking scenes og necrophilia, cannibalism, and implied knife rape.
I get that you want attention but you're simply wrong. Its just not special to complain about thr obvious movies like transformers or capeshit etc.
Juan Wright
>arrival >classy
>birdman >tremendous performances Only keaton
Stopped reading there
Asher Wood
All those movies are basically "genre movies for people who don't like that genre of movies".
Lincoln Robinson

Easton Harris
>only keaton did you forget about amy ryan, naomi watts, edward norton and zach galifianakis?
Xavier Hill
ITT: I'm smarter than you
Daniel Robinson
I pulled these from a pleb roasties fav list on letterboxd Norton was the only other worthwhile one you tremendous faggot
Lucas Peterson
i disagree, i thought galifianakis gave quite a heartfelt performance, the same with naomi watts. amy ryan had more of an enigmatic role but she had a strong presence and influence on keaton's character
Evan Wilson
Nope it was birdshit
Jackson Moore
well i respect your opinion even if it is a vulgar one
William Jones
>>sicario >well paced crime drama that begs the question whether judicial corruption is actually needed even though it can be seen as ethically or morally wrong Not OP, but the problem isn't that. The problem is that the way its directed, and the cinematography. are all wrong
It's a nu-male version of a neo-western
Luke Miller
it's not a western at all, it's a crime drama, like i indicated in my post. the direction and cinematography give it a quite a distinct narrative. youtube.com/watch?v=yhHwgDAM8uU
hell or high water is an example of a neo-western which is done exceptionally well but im not even going to start comparing hell or high water with sicario as they are completely different.
Noah Brown
You're... not wrong.
John Turner
True, but the setting of the film in the west make it expecting to have Western tones, or at least an hot, arid, crude athmosphere, that it fails to achieve.
Sicario is basically Narcos done wrong
Jackson Carter
all modern movies, including the ones in the OP are basically capeshit, even the ones purported to be high brow
Sebastian Hill
tl.dr: the nu-male version of a genre
Kayden Perry
nah it's more like Traffic. i do see how the environment it's set in may muddle its tone but i suppose the story demanded that setting.
Gabriel Adams
dark knight is actually good 9/10 probably the best superhero movie anyone will ever make(superhero movies are dog shit) intersteller is ok maybe 7/10 inception is ok maybe 7/10 birdman wasnt bad, 7/10 arrival was a good movie 8/10 everything else is trash
Xavier Scott
But Traffic does make you feel like you are in the Mexican-American frontier. Sicario makes you feel at a drive-in, at best
Andrew Martinez
I actually agree to an extent with OP.
The films in his list are actually mostly well made and decent, but they are put on a pedestal by inferior minds, and purported to be much better than they actually are.
In saying that, Dark Knight is excellent and is worthy of the praise it gets, and Winter Soldier is the obvious high mark of the mediocre MCU. The Revenant is also very good.
Oliver Cook
>but they are put on a pedestal by inferior minds which you pay attention to. really opens up the woke side of the cerebellum
Justin Murphy
>La La Land didn't see >The Revenant great >Birdman great >Interstellar great >Inception great >Arrival great >The Social Network great >10 Cloverfield Lane great >Drive overrated >NEon Demon shit >Donnie Darko great >Ex Machina great >CAP AMERICA winter soldier overrated >The Dark Knight great >Moonlight didn't see >Sicario overrated >Prisoners great >Easy A shit >Scott Pilgrim didn't see >Wonder Woman didn't see probably shit >Pacific Rim completely garbage
Caleb Baker
I usually go against contrarian opinions here but every movie you named was shit. I only really liked Birdman because the camera gimmick provided entertainment value. Every other movie you named is barely a step above capeshit.
Jackson Perry
god bless you op, ofcourse reddit will disagree
Levi Bailey
