First thread
>>2278I just watched the new Batman movie, it's about as boring and derived as you'd expect. The villain is a real psycho, apparently he hates Bruce Wayne's father because of his scam charity orphanage where children froze to death and the villain himself grew up in, and tries to publicly reveal his father's ties to organized crime and political corruption. Luckily Batman eventually teaches him the true meaning of love and forgiveness before the villain is thrown into an insane asylum for the rest of his days, and the credits roll.
I also watched Memoria, which was just as boring and I have nothing to say about.

>>32176>Just why?Probably because Tarantiono was a big fan of Sharon since he was a child. Probably should have googled this shit it's not like it's a state secret or something.
> just needs his violence against women quota for his moviesYou mean against the one who in real life continuously stabbed pregnant Sharon who begged her to spare her child? Yeah, i guess.

>>32177>Probably because Tarantiono was a big fan of Sharon since he was a child. Probably should have googled this shit it's not like it's a state secret or something.How would I have googled a fact I didn't know unless I wanted to read every stupid interview he did on the movie I didn't like in the first place. Still it's no explanation. I guess it's just confirming what I already said, which is that the Brad Pitt character was so self-insert, Mary Sue, that it had me gagging throughout the entire movie. The DiCaprio part was entertaining enough I guess. Also all the Sharon Tate parts were so shoehorned into the movie it was ridiculous. I saw trailers for it before and I had no clue it even involved the Manson/Tate thing.
>You mean against the one who in real life continuously stabbed pregnant Sharon who begged her to spare her child? Yeah, i guess.Don't really care. Definitely don't care to see some graphic revenge porn about them.
Like I said, I guess that's his thing now, doing graphic revenge porn fantasy for every real world villain. I hope he does the Mark Wahlberg 9/11 story. Will be some satisfying real auter kino shit. 🤮🤮🤮

>>32179>Brad Pitt character was so self-insert, Mary Suehow was it a self-insert if tarantino was never a stunt double, you mean a self-insert for his ideas? I thought the movie was better than inglorious bastards but more for the vibes than anything else

>>31488Lol 1488
>>31494The thing is
Everything depicted in the Northman is actually based to the psychotic atheist fashoids of the modern day, and arguably all fashoids to ever exists
Fascists worship violence, murder, cruelty, and domination of the “weak”, the only gods they would worship are brutal and cruel, this depiction of the Norse is likely how white nationalists think white people should live
No.32186
>>32185Note I am not saying the creator of the work has these beliefs, just that to actual fascists these factors up the appeal, they are blatantly hypocritical as well, they would view it as proofs of subhuman savagery if it was a non-European culture

>>32179>How would I have googled a fact I didn't knowYou could've started with "Why Tarantino made this movie" google search and take it from there. 5-10 minutes spent would have brought you the result. Guess reading is ain't for everybody.
I don't think you understand what "self insert" is.

>>32181It's Mary Sue like Twilight or any bottom tier garbage like that. There's never any stakes to the character. It's just every situation he's in he's the cool guy that just wins immediately that everyone loves and thinks is cool(and then gets to save I guess Quentin's high school crush)
No.32194
>>32193Most of all, if the movie was all about Quentin's Mary Sue stopping the Manson murders, the movie should've actually been about that instead. Maybe have some more scenes with the Manson family beyond that one scene where Brad Pitt goes to the ranch where nothing happens(except some more stupid Mary Sue torture flick action.)

The Northman was mid. Kind of like a Nordic saga with the skeleton of a noir. Probably fascistic.

The Killing (1956), one of the inspirations of Reservoir Dogs - spoilers:
Good film, the jumping between timescales and narration seemed unnecessary and smells of book adaptation, and some bits are slow, although overall definitely worth the watch. HOLY SHIT, GEORGE SOMEHOW WENT FROM PATHETIC SIMP TO S-TIER BAD ASS IN ONE MINUTE FLAT. Coming in with a pistol blasting to cut his punchline short, then, face filled with shotgun, goes home and kills his bitch wife with no warning when she doesn't call an ambulance for him. that fucking parrot lol

>>32180The 10 second scene of a Jew emptying an entire magazine into Hitler's face as they massacre the entire core of the Nazi regime wasn't rewarding enough?
>>32095It gets a bad wrap because le edgy taxi driver literally me bait, but it's a solid satire of (among other things) alienating corporate/capitalism life and violent middle-class reaction to it, and despite the obvious restrictions of successful Hollywood (especially product placement), the movie was solid.
