>Bruce Melvin dies in a hurricane
>no new lbg threads for a week
I guess it just goes to show that no one wants this circle-jerk general anymore.
FUCK YOU
RIP to Bruce
Literally whom?
You
I'm going to assume we actually care about honest feedback here
Where'd all the usual spergs go?
Bruce got stuck by the hurricane
AMDI is in India so he is sleeping
Why don't you comment on the films you watched instead? Surely you have something to say
This is probably the original name I've ever seen!
You get less replies than somebody who reposts a stale meme.
do you actually watch all that crap

13 hours appreciation is always good.

Can you ever hope to begin to understand art when you ignore its transcendental value

In other news, the water is wet.
The might of Griffith. The scant use of a closeup to emphasize connection. Never purely aesthetic, always deliberate. A technique that was once rejected as foolhardy and nonsensical has now been wholly consumed into the entire vernacular of a medium. Whole films are made of nothing but closeups watered down like overspent ejaculation, but with Griffith it meant something. The syntax has remained the same, yet we are so far from his vision.

The Shakespeare of the screen
These men are not here for age, they are here because they are the best.

>Anywhere near as good or inventive as Griffith
Griffith reinvented the English language into something more eloquent and complex. His intertitles are not surplus, they serve as accompaniment to simultaneously flex the mind and the soul, emotional and intellectual stimulation
This user understands
Griffith never infantilized his audience, nor did he even ask for one. This is why he is shunned
How can you even enjoy their films if 90% of them are lost.

If you can't enjoy a director's filmography without watching every single one of their features there is no point watching in the first place.
Watch a bunch of horror movies (31+) between mid-September and Halloween, a bunch of challenges to make sure your selection is diverse, but there's still a ton of leeway to make it your own
It's fun and I like horror movies but there's still a shitton I haven't seen

You're right. Griffith and Flaherty are the best!

Do something new. Be original.
Moana 1926. One of the greatest works of art by mankind.
Frontality centralizes and eschews detail that the mind searches for
Can someon make an Essential DW Griffith list 4 me
Can someon make an Essential DW Griffith list 4 me
All Griffith works are equal, simpleton. All 500+
So this is the """"""intelligence"""""" of Griffith fangirls....
Yikes!
Man's genesis. How is one to understand the creature that is "man"? There is always a beginning, middle, and end. But not necessarily in that order.
Zoinks!
Because all 500+ are fucking lost.
Zoinks!
The shield of identity is one of man's most vital assets.
A technique is a tool, not a toy.
