Sup Forums´s opinion on Rob Ager

.

I don't know who you are Rob but fuck off

i´m not rob

more like rob gayger (no clue who this is lmaooooo)

I have no issues with him.

Hes right about soyboy runner 2049
post the terrible movie he made though

He and Tony are the only people making analysis/essay style videos on film worth watching.

Rob was also the first person to do it and gain a following and in my opinion is better at what he does than tony. (tony focusing more on the craft of film, ie editing, sound design, shot compisition etc etc, while rob focuses on wider themes, subliminanal motifs and images, mise en scene etc)

His videos are mostly well researched and very interesting. Very good to watch in bed. Its just a shame he has to hide them behind a paywall and jew out.

I once suggested he come here in one of his comments because "Sup Forums is suited to his level of autism" and he responded so he most probably knows about this place.

I disagree with his stance on modern films but respect his opinion. I would go as far to say that his is my favourite youtube channel and that if i could afford it i would buy all of his videos and support him.

he does a lot of research but at the end of the day he's about as big of an autist as a ralphthemoviemaker kind of person.

he also thinks drive is shit while rogue one is one of the best films of the 2000s

Why can´t he upload his videos on Youtube? I bet no one is buying his shit on his clunky site. But uploading them on Youtube would get him more popular there and attract more people to his Patreon from where he would earn much more with time. But i guess he is too old or retarded to understand those simple things.

Unfunny philistine minded loser.

I like him but he ruined my opinion of Bladerunner, now I have doubt

fair point

He made his own movie??

He's the only youtube making interesting analysis videos that aren't riddled with bullshit "ALSO CHECK OUT MY (MARVEL MOVIE) REVIEW PLEASE, I NEED THE MONEY OH MY GOD I HATE THESE MOVIES BUT I WANT YT MONEY" shit

it looked interesting from a practical effect stand point
it was just everything else was a disaster
he tries to right his own music and put it in some of his analysis videos and it becomes really clear right away he knows nothing about music production
it's laughably bad

pseud.

literally the film PJW
>I SAW BLADE RUNNA TWUNTY FOHTY NAYN TODAE
>IMAGE IN MAH SHOGG

I like him but sometimes he reads too far into things

I'm not going to dignify this with a response, as it will only prolong the presence of this thread.

Fuck! you got me again, Ager!

UKIP supporting nazi

Imagine if someone makes a movie and puts a lot of references there - like arranging tables into shapes, choosing the music with references to movies with similar themes, writing subliminal messages on the walls, using clever ways to put product placements where they don´t distract but also play into that scenery and NO ONE notices all that work because they don´t "read too far" into things. If no one notices then directors could just say fuck it and do the bland movies because whats the point?

...

but wait there's more

Drive was shit though.

fury road is one of the great action movies. .into the trash he goes.jpg

hi rob

scared redditor as chad ager tears apart his favorite flicks

All of these are right except for Birdman being decent

This. People only talk about Dark Knight because of Ledger's perfomance, Drive is just a shittier version of The Driver, and Fury Road is Road Warrior for the ADD afflicted

Tony?

>kubrick admitted to putting secret messages into his films
>it's the producer talking about the layout of the hotel
>FMJ is about wartime rape, and the marines hiring a prostitute is a metaphor for gangrape
>the ending scene of them staring at the sniper is an analogy for them gangraping her, and she's making the sounds of a woman being raped
>this is my rifle this is my gun is their equating sexual pleasure with killing

and last but not least

>rob_ager4.jpg
Stop shilling yourself.

lmao how many of these are on the Fedoracore list

this guy is such a 15-year-old

no no you see I'm a mad redditor, rob ager has kino taste

I thought he hated Saving Private Ryan

He's alright. He doesn't seem as pretentious as other people who analyze film on JewTube but sometimes I feel he veers off way too much on the meaning of some things.

no he just has some problems with it

Where did he comment on rogue one?

He has super interesting things to say about movies, and is the only movie analist I've found that clearly does a lot of actual research and puts a lot of thought into his theories
Who's Tony?

I don't know where did he

Shouldn't we be thankful that we have critics who have (reasonably) non-mainstream tastes?

Wait a minute, Rango? Like cartoon mexican lizard Rango? Was that movie actually worth something?

alien covenant was generally liked by the mainstream for one,
and two who the fuck cares if it's mainstream or not? All that matters is if the film sucks or not, and he likes a whole lot of shit

Not enough content because he monetizes everything. Are analysis videos in such high demand that people are willing to actually pay for them?

no

yes, lizard rango. it had some great visuals but it's not a classic by any means. very predictable story that has a lot of quippy references to other westerns that gets old by the end

Yeah it was cool

He clearly speaks his mind is what I meant. He doesn't sugarcoat criticism just because the movie may be liked (Mad Max). Whether he has good reasons to justify said opinions (which I think he generally has) is another question.
Plus most of the time, in his reviews you hear him talk about things other reviewers just don't.

An autistic faggot and the embodiment of fedora tipping.

Claims to be a "deep film analysis" well obsessing over entry level genre movies.Most of the analysis is paroting existing footnotes that have been floating around the internet for decades. Basically the equivalent of a "hardcore gamer" who started gaming on the ps2 and think he's the shit because he played dark souls.

Contrarian 2049

>not liking bladereddit 2049 is suddenly contrarian

you could say that about anyone, soooo

>claims to be in-depth film analyst
>literally did not know the name of the characters "Luv" or "Joi"

He's a hack lol

His vids on the shining and especially the exorcist were eye-opening. His analysis of the shining (native American themes) was much better than that Room 212 film or whatever. His thoughts on the Exorcist were startling. I always freak out friends by floating his observations.

comfy, mostly good opinions, very genuine

No not really

yea pretty much

Hmmmm no I dont think so actually

well you'd be wrong again

>>this is my rifle this is my gun is their equating sexual pleasure with killing
thats what Žižek said

But I havent been wrong a first time yet

who touched you?

whatever helps you sleep at night rob

This is the funniest version of this meme since PRIASE OBAMA

>this fucking awful list

I am pretty sure Rob is autistic when I heard about how he felt about Bladerunner 2049. It sounded like his ideal Bladerunner would be, "Dude what if everyone were a replicant! Wouldn't that be fucked up!"

I don't agree with a lot of his so-called hidden themes. Many of them are just him stating the obvious but burying it under loads and loads of superfluous language.

He's not wrong.

>being this mad because a film analyst has different opinions than you

I've seen all of his free stuff. I'm tempted to buy his other stuff, but his website is awful.

yup its pretty cool neat homage to fear and loathing and the animation is great at times

This is pedestrian and obvious to any first-year English Lit student. Honestly, I hope you don't think that is controversial analysis.

What was the first major twist?

>it's the producer talking about the layout of the hotel
The producer of the shining?

based

you forgot to say LOTR is trash, contrarian.

Q U A D S proves true

Yeah hes definitely one of the first and best to do film analysis videos

That movie was truly shite. I never heard his music but some of his paintings are actually good

He actually thought Covenant wasnt a complete pile of shit? Oh rob how you have fallen

Rogue one was even worse than covenant and he thought it was one of the best movies of the last 20 years scroll up and look at his fb posts

Bretty gud. Only internet film analyst I can bear to watch for multiple videos. His videos on The Shining and The Thing were especially good. He does have a tendency to reach, but even then he usually draws attention to things I hadn't noticed before (like some of the supernatural/occult references in the og Texas Chainsaw Massacre).

he's fuckin great. basically the only person who writes about films who seems to genuinely give a shit about them. seems like a really considerate and aware person, though obviously very strange. some of his points are definitely odd, and i dont align with his aesthetic sensibilities, but great videos and seems like a great guy

How's his analysis on Hellraiser? Thinking about purchasing.

Very good but some of the stuff he points out is obvious. His Thing analysis is the best

Sometimes overreaches, such as the "River of Blood" video. More often, makes decent observations with supporting evidence. Occasionally doesn't reach far enough, but occasionally is brilliant.

Wish he would do more, especially genre, and would buy his analysis of porn stars.

I like him a lot and have purchased several of his videos. His style is dry, but that's how I like it; information without trying to be entertaining beyond the topic itself being interesting.

He hates Blade Runner 2049, but I have forgiven him.

Everyone should watch his video on Conspiracy Theories

i like his work if i had more of a disposebale income i would buy his dvds and articals but all i have seen from him is from youtube

>too retarded to understand Inception
>never mentions how the documentary "Staircases to Nowhere: Making Stanley Kubrick's 'The Shining'" debunks most of his shit videos

Idiot and annoying

>Rogue One

His video about sexual abuse in the Exorcist was interesting.

>killing them softly

unfortunately i cant drop something thats already six feet deep

All opinions disgarded forever

he has good insight but shit taste

complete nut

he literally said he wants to kidnap john carpenter

Absolute pleb, afraid of real cinema, but like all intense autism, it can produce some interesting things. His Kubrick stuff is great, but that's it.
