No.1[View All]
Hello, the most recent movie threads have seemed a bit unfocused, this thread is for the discussion of movies we just watched and other anon's takes on them. So, without further ado I'll begin.
I just watched Parasite last night, it was pretty good I think, but not as cutting edge or witty as I was expecting. I thought it was a bit unfocused and threw a lot at the wall to see what stuck, but on the other hand, it was fun and more interesting than most. A solid 8/10.
I do an IMDB rating for each film I watch, for my own reference mostly, but you can see each film I watched lately and my rating if you're curious or want to ask about them. If other anons have something similar feel free to post.

>>1Just watched Mutafukaz/MFKZ, funny how obviously the creator was inspired by GTA San Andreas (tho not like I have much exposure to LA other than that anyways), was pretty decent IMO, fun action scenes. Much better than Fury which I tried to watch earlier but it was so shit I turned it off (rarely do that).

I accidentally ended up watching South Korea soft core pornography

do you guys think porn are movies too?

I recently watched Slackers. Really funny, strange film. Most of the scenes contain a leftist or conspiracy rant.
>>567Movies, maybe, but not FILM. It's simply the real act of sex replaced with by the spectacle of it. Every aspect of life in spectacular capitalism is replicated and then replaced with commoditized visual representation.

Watched Encanto, it was alright, I liked how it was a kids animated film that didn't really have a clear villain, pretty rare.

No.575
>>572really good just saw it. Some might find the message too sentimental
just hug it out bro but I thought it was a refreshung refutation of humanism under bourgeois ideology as well as all the more obvious shit about family trauma and nihilism.
No.576
>>571yea but it sucked, imagine taking a genre as deeply anti-human as cyberpunk and making a movie about natalism. That most redditors like that schlock is just another condemnation of it.

Dune in theater dialogue was terrible, I couldn't hear anything and could barely follow the plot. Not the best intro 2 the series.
No.578
>>577Don't you understand that having inaudible whispering dialogue backed by sweeping orchestral scores and loud noises to keep the audience awake is how you make a movie 'cinematic'?
No.579
>>577you just went to a bad theatre.

>>580im sorry you like crap anon
No.583
>>576>imagine taking a genre as deeply anti-human as cyberpunk and making a movie about natalismso the original blade runner then? because the whole point of the movie was that the replicants were happy to be alive, and the most iconic part is literally a guy reminiscing about all the wonders he experienced in life, lamenting the fact that he and those memories are going to disappear from the world.
No.584
>>583There's a huge difference between the manufactured beings being the most alive in the world juxtaposed to the stone like and non-living humans versus glorifying a fucking nuclear family in 2049. This entire fucking board feels like its designed to piss me off.
No.585
>>584Even the concept of usurping production from the Tyrell corporation in 2049 is so antagonistic to the overall concept of the original. Capital and production as fundamentally anti-human.

great movie, somewhere between a political melodrama and a war film, about how anarchists are petit-bourgeois lording their pompousness over those less fortunate than themselves
unironically amazing acting and production quality though
there’s a stream on youtube, and a rip here

>>593recommended that to someone on reddit (I'm sorry) just the other day, real baader-meinhof effect shit.
Anarchists are cringe most of the time, but I still have a soft spot for the spanish ones, especially Durruti. The defense of Madrid is inspiring beyond words; campesinos and workers with looted rifles and hunting guns holding off the best-trained, best-armed, most experienced troops in the country for 3 whole years. Very Paris Commune.

Embedding error.
I just rewatched He was a Quiet man. This is movie from 2007 and follows and office incel mass shooter who gets everything he ever wanted but still isn't happy. He gets to be the hero, he gets the girl. He sees the degenerate scum in his office wiped out. Movie has been on youtube from almost over a year and still hasn't getting taken down, if you want to watch it I recommended highly.

The Execution. A quality new release compared to some recent Russian films.
No.604
Anyone see The Batman yet, I definitely enjoyed it even though it had to fall back on hollow platitudes in the last act but also points out how hollow they are? so idk… Seems like the new 'realism' genre of DC (joker, pattinson's batman) is about being just woke enough to bring all the people disillusioned with marvel without actually committing to any definitive statement - maybe that's the best we can hope for from big studio project though.
Film has a neat shoutout to climate change too as well as the Waynes being a prototypical Rockefellers/Vanderbilt family for Gotham.

No.606
>>605Nah he was very disappointing and not intimidating or profound at all, he just seemed stupid
No.608
>>606weird you got that vibe his entire purpose was showing the hollowness of Wayne's vengeance as a spoiled rich boy versus real grievances about the city most of which were caused by the Vanderbilt/Rockefeller families (Waynes/Arkhams in this universe) who built it.
