Advanced Cinema

This is a thread for those of us who have been watching cinema seriously for 2+ years and have seen over 150 films. Don't be offended; some of us have just moved past imdb-core, capeshit and indie flicks. Do not derail the thread with trolling or off-topic discussion.

A warm welcome to my fellow cinephiles. Here are some topics to get us started:
>What are your views on the current state of cinema?
>What have you been watching lately?

BANE?

At least you didn't use a fucking oscarbait flick in the OP this time, making some progress

er, i find your pic a little problematic. the filename says "superior" and your talking about advanced cinema, do you see what kind of correlation people might think your making?

like, i'm latino, and i enjoy all the advanced cinema. you dont have to be a blonde haired white guy with blue eyes to appreciate kino.

I feel the current state of film primarily in the US is going to shit with remakes of already good movies. Money over art seems to be the theme here. Currently I've been watching foreign extreme films as I like the controversy that comes with pushing artistic freedom. Irreverible, old boy, I saw the devil etc.

You actually need blue eyes to properly appreciate some movies. Directors hide things like this all the times in movies. There's like 3 scenes in The Shining that only the blue eyed can even see.

I know what you mean. I just watched 2001: A Space Odyssey last weekend and told my friends about it, and they all thought it sounded boring.

I guess that's why movies like Sausage Party get popular.

Ive been there too many times man. I don't even recommend movies to anyone anymore. Last time I did, this kid came back saying he watched the first 10 minutes and didn't like it. This makes me question when the downfall of film will happen when no one wants to watch a movie unless it has someone entertained within the first 10 minutes.

wtf

is that true? ive seen the shining several times, where in the movie is the three scenes

>I'm latino

My condolences.

>Kurosawa, , Kubrick, Lynch, Villenueve, Welles, Inarritu, Carpenter, Cronenberg, Bergman, Tarkovsky, Ozu, Godard, Herzog, Eisenstein, Scorsese, Mann, Linklater, Hitchcock, Coppola, Leone, Bunuel, Lean, Fellini, Antonioni, Melville, Cameron, Truffaut, Renoir, Dreyer, Bresson, Tarr, Haneke, Korine, Kiarostami, Refn, Noe, Resnais, Brakhage, von Trier, Paul Thomas Anderson, Wes Anderson, Kieślowski, Kar-Wai Wong, Chan-wook Park, Joon-ho Bong, Ki-duk Kim the list goes on!

The hallmarks of the tasteless and the uninitiated. It's okay if you're just getting into the medium, but there are some (even here, on a so called ''film'' board) that actually believe they are cultured or have a snippet of taste because they like these directors, when in actuality they are nothing more than embarrassing cringeworthy copy/paste babbies with no opinion on the medium they claim to love whatsoever.

For a cinephile like myself, it is truly disgusting to watch, and the main reason I, and many others, steer far away from this pit of despair and depravity.

shitskin pls go

So you are saying these directors are trash and the movies they have made are trash?
What I want to know is what movies elitist fucks like yourself watch?

>For one to comprehensively decide what piece of film-making one considers to awaken an emotion in one that leaves one in no doubt but that one has happened across a genuine piece of art, one must first put one's notions aside of what one must expect in a work that will trigger for one one's appreciation of one's emotions being spoken to in such a manner as to say to one, 'this visceral beast, would that one might let it become a part of one! Horseman pass by! One is watching real cinema!'

If you were worth talking to you would have already known the answer to that question, embryo.

Can't even name one movie thats on your "level"
good one m8

Just one?
Na srebrnym globie (1988, Zulawski)

Freddy a Obtenu Doigter
Mon Cul est Hantée
Tom et Jerry Enfants
Est-ce qu'on Vous Sert: Le Film

Tell me about Shrek? Why does he wear the swamp.

WHat is some essential kino kino

>Na srebrnym globie (1988, Zulawski)

A formidable mediocrity. Second-rate, ephemeral, puffed-up cinema. A favorite between the ages of 8 and 14; essentially a film for very young people. To consider it a masterpiece is an absurd delusion. A nonentity, means absolutely nothing to me.

Anyone has see
Le Fart Fart #4 (1973.94) Directed by Le Wee Wee Cresaunt?

This guy recomended a porn video and Tom and Jerry. Damn, I wish i was as intelligent and cultured as this guy

>and the main reason I, and many others, steer far away from this pit of despair and depravity.
Except you don't do you, you retard. And you do exactly what you say others do, i.e. form an idea that you are highly cultured and knowledgeable because you watch and like films that are still widely known and commercially available. Any of these films the likes of you list are well-known and widely watched. Please stop with the cringeworthy notion that you are in some way the only person cultured enough to have access to this hidden horde of films. You sound like you're 16.

He just tries to find films that are critically well received, but less well known to the average person. He has an insecurity complex and needs to convince others that he is a true cinephile, by behaving the complete opposite way a cinephile would do. The only thing he loves is projecting himself as a cultured person, he probably doesn't even like films, and he would probably try to discourage the general public from learning more about films as he would be threatened. Basically, he's a 14 year old dimwit who has to be told what to like.

La Guerre des étoiles - Le Réveil de la Force (2015, Ж. Ж. Aбpaмc)

Is my taste patrician?

The Room
FUCK YEH MAN

>watching cinema seriously for 2+ years and have seen over 150 films

I thought you said this was an advanced thread?

Also; >What are your views on the current state of cinema?

Studio's are running away from original works for the safety of old intellectual properties, and this is damaging cinema all around as new writers aren't being found and brought in through spec work.

I say give it half a decade and the IP bubble will burst.

On the brightside, as equipment gets cheaper all the time, new works will emerge as amateurs can afford to get into the craft and hone their skills.

>>What have you been watching lately?
Last film I saw was girl with all the gifts. It sucked.

You lose points for not having Children of Men on the list but then you gain them back with Synecdoche New York. 3/5

What are the other two that aren't Freddy Got Fingered and Tom and Jerry?

My ass is haunted? What?
