richard brody looks like a chomo
Yes, I love paying jews money to tell me how evil white men are.
They're right. Sheep care about the opinion of critics. Critics are infamous retards. Fucking TFA has higher score on RT than 2049. TFA!
Him and Armond are /ourguys/
I only watch good films so I only go to the theatre once or twice a year anyway.
RT is loaded by irrelevant fanboy websites who keep padding shit movies to ridiculous rating, and SJWs who destroy any movie that doesn't comply with their social agendas.
He's the GOAT critic tho
Reviews can sometimes be a useful tool. But only watching what Rotten Tomatoes tells you to see is retarded. It's actually good to take risks, see bad movies and be disappointed occasionally, just to make you get out of your comfort zone and properly experiment.
I also prefer going to movies blind, or with as little information as possible. I like being surprised because expectations can ruin a movie experience, where as not knowing much beyond the basic premise usually allows you to be genuinely surprised or/and engaged with ththe story.
Real "moviegoers" don't go to movies any more.
Can I get a quick rundown on this guy?
in most of the USA this is true, worldwide it's not
As a real hero and a real human being i agree
>Revenge of the Sith's labyrinthine opening shot— of Anakin and Obi-Wan giving chase to Dooku through the space vehicles on the planet of Coruscant—is a mighty and audacious gauntlet-throw, the digital equivalent of the opening shot of Orson Welles’s “Touch of Evil." It wheels and gyrates and zips and pivots with a vertiginous wonder that declares, from the beginning, that Lucas had big visual ideas and was about to realize them with a heroically inventive virtuosity. And the rest of the movie follows through on that self-dare.
>If I had seen ROTS in a theatre upon its release, in 2005, I think that, at the moment when Sheev, sizzling in the blue lightning that Mace Windu reflects back at him, cries out to Anakin, “Power! Unlimited Power!,” I would have leaped out of my seat yelling with excitement. The entire movie is filled with an absolute splendor of the pulp sublime, and that moment is its very apogee. Lucas reaches historic heights in the filming of action: the martial artistry of Anakin and Obi-Wan’s double duel versus Dooku, the gaping maw of outer space and of the airshaft into which the heroic duo drops, Obi-Wan’s light-sabre fight with the four-armed Grievous, and, above all, the apocalyptic inferno of the confrontation of Obi-Wan and Anakin. I watched these sequences over and was repeatedly and unflaggingly amazed by Lucas’s precise, dynamic, wildly imaginative direction.
>The scripted politics of the conflicts have a grand imagination to match. What Lucas brings to the script of the movie is a Shakespearean backroom dialectic of power-maneuvering. The dialogue is just heightened and sententious enough, just sufficiently rhetorical, to convey the grave moment of ideas in conflict and the grand mortal results of that dialectical clash—the making of a villain and the unmaking of a republic.
100% Sacred Cows from last century
90%+ Modern normie shit / le golden age of television / Netflix originals
70-89% Really bad superhero movies
Ah, I see...
Based Brody. Are he and Almond the only ones left to stand up to plebbery, IMDB and reedit?
princeton grad
wrote a pretty good book about godard
is writing one about the french new wave
received some sort of medal from the french goverment for his contributions in popularizing french cinema in usa
(obnoxious) apologete of malick, scorcese, soderbergh and most other popular american directors
always prepared to criticise shitty flicks that gained undeserved attention and accolades(his takedown of elle is the most recent example of this)
basically, he's not the hero film criticism needs, but he's the hero film criticism deserves in these dark and turbulent times for the seventh art
I don't have anyone to go to the movies with, the last time I went to the movies was to watch District 9.
...
Well consider how now that the hype has died down, people are looking at the movie in hindsight, as just average.
What would the score look like now if critics watched VII again?
Also it's annoying to see how inane critics are. Look no further than the morons on YouTube. Watch a dummie like Stuckmann or Grace review Scorsese's last film, Silence and you'll see how they don't understand it at all and judge it on a superficial level.
