let's just say it is not quite my tempo

look up charlie parker plebian

Fellowship of the Ring

I don't care what anyone says

No

why didnt the eagles fly the ring to mordor?

Watch it again

Whiplash is pretty mediocre and has plenty of flaws.
>flat one-dimensional characters
>everyone except JK Simmons is pretty shit
>generic storyline (plot), that repeats several of its beats over and over again, and is just a drag to sit through
>certain subplots aren't well developed and felt tacked on
>despite winning best editing the editing is actually flawed in places, and overall nothing special

Not a bad film, but certainly not a flawless one. It could have been great if they got someone who knew how to write well, because JK Simmons as the hard-driving, relentless, perfectionist was just way too good to be wasted like this.

it must be annoying when autism gets in the way of a perfect film

...

senpai if its "perfect" it must have some criteria for you right? if you want to talk about these criteria you need to use a language everyone understands outside of your own head (which by the way is much more autistic than fleshing out films with a standardized language).

what could possibly go wrong, right?

annoying narration throughout

kys
literally the most perfect film

...

he didn't throw the chair at him, the movie just memed when in reality he threw the chair at the floor near him

...

>implying you were there

its perfect, you probably just didnt get it or something.

Robot Jox

The Coen Brothers have SIX flawless films.

Inside Llewyn Davis

A Serious Man

No Country For Old Men

The Big Lebowski

Fargo

Barton Fink

Think about that.

Who can even compete with that track record?

Not you, that's for sure.

Add Miller's Crossing to that list and I'll agree with it.

>Robot Jox

Why didn't he just let the rocket punch hit the stadium?

There is a flaw in there somewhere.

I'm sure of it.

Maybe when they kill Billy Batt's. I think the shot/cut when Tommy hits him in the face with the gun is "off" in that there doesn't look to be enough power behind the blow to break the gun.

Also, DeNiro was unconvincingly not-Italian for my liking. A little bit.

It's more like a 9.99/10

Multiple shots, like when they were crossing the waterfall, have an ugly digital quality. Some of the night shots too. You get some low res image smearing and judder in there too.

>A Serious Man
Are you serious man?

Instinctive heroism.

(((Coen Brothers))) you shitlord

they have nothing on the wachowski sisters though

Sorry. Can't.

Gabriel Byrne's acting in this scene stops the film from being perfect.

youtube.com/watch?v=bkdgw8m17Lw

All that line is implying is that there are perceptible forces which transcend logic and the boundaries of reason.

It's a fine way of setting up interdimensional travel, it's not saying "love will fuel our magical journey"

>Inside Llewyn Davis
mediocre
>A Serious Man
shit
>No Country For Old Men
good
>The Big Lebowski
not bad
>Fargo
very forgettable
>Barton Fink
nonsense

Tell me I'm not.

>repeats several of its beats
I see what you did there.

Her is perfection

This post is Goyim/10

Byrne is terrible. I don't know how he got so many roles.

the scene when they have "sex" is pure cringe though

they didn't want to show him jacking off into a tissue so they just cut to black and throw in some shit lines like "i can feel you"
mfw

>>No Country For Old Men
>good

but still overrated, otherwise thick, solid, tight post

you can't be

pic related is though

...

The letter to the ex wife was out of place thematically and for the character and illogical in how it was presented - The plot didn't really have anything to do with what the letter contained and didn't suit the tone of the ending.

I was really, really, really surprised at how well written Her was.

I thought Jonze without Kaufman would be kind of dumb but filled with heart. The film was surprisingly less emotional and far more intelligently written than I ever expected.

Fuck...Thinking of 2013, we had Her, Inside Llewyn Davis and Wolf Of Wall Street in one month alone.

This year is going to fucking suck.

>This year is going to fucking suck.
Rogue One, dummy.

...

Not even sure how I feel about this film yet. Which is really unusual for me.

It's one of those rare films that didn't deliver exactly what I expected from the synopsis and trailer.

It's got so much conflicting and unusual stuff going on in it. I do know the more I think about it, the more I really like it, even though I kind of think it's twee.

I was expecting to find it mildly diverting and then pretend to hate it because it was trying too hard, but I'm starting to think it will be one of the best films I see this year.

That's odd.

You seriously think that's going to be anything but passable?

The Force Awakens was mediocre, this is just a cheaper stop gap.

The trailers have been really mixed. Sometimes it looks like an expensive fan film, sometimes it looks fantastic, and then you get things like Everything that features the lead actress, and it looks horrendous.

I definitely don't have any expectations for it. Just curious mostly because of the D.P. and Mendhelson.

you mean mediocre films with flawless endings?

...

DUDE NEUROSIS LMAO

I thought Whiplash was really good.

An 8/10.

But dat fucking ending was a 10/10 all timer and it's going to keep that film stuck in peoples heads for a long time.

Sort of like the final minute of this film;

youtube.com/watch?v=Tc7H9s4PdSI

...

letterboxd.com/ghostdinosaur/list/films-i-find-to-be-flawless/

Literally this. It's flawless.

Not my tempo.

It's a little post-Tarantino try hardy in parts.

Literally 100% of people who saw Whiplash understood it. There's nothing deep or subtle about any of it, and implying otherwise reeks of "I'm 15 and this is the first non-superhero movie I've ever willingly seen."

Can you give an example of what you mean?

there are no 10/10 movies
the closest anything could ever achieve is like a 9.8 or 9.7

pretentious, pseudoscientific, manipulative bullshit is what this movie is.

You are wrong though.
Fletcher is a villain disguised as a mentor. He abused Andrew both mentally and physically, made him obsessed with reaching musical perfection and pushed a student to kill himself.
And he didn't do this because he wanted to "make music great again", but only because HE wanted his own personal Charlie Parker pet-musicians so he could brag about it, so he could feel his career wasn't wasted.
To the audience this isn't too clear, because by the end of this movie we're supposed to like the guy and see how proud he is of Andrew after that long-ass drum solo.

Fletcher is a dick, a villain. But most think he's just the Sgt. Hartmann version of a music teacher. But you need people like Hartmann in the Marines, you don't need people like Fletcher in a music school.

Many normies (and fedoras who praise the movie as the greatest of 2014) missed this obvious part.

Forrest Gump

I could write an essay telling you what is wrong with this movie, but I'll just sum it up in one sentence: it's total shit.
Also
>ripping off fucking Event Horizon

Not perfect, but definitely great films.

>movie forces you to cry
no thank you

nice summary dude, what would we do without your brilliant insight

1. The Eagles by and large try to keep out of the politics of the world until they are willing to help Gandalf.
2. BEFORE THE RING WAS DESTROYED, THUS KILLING SAURON, THERE WAS A GIANT TOWER WITH AN EYE ON IT THAT WOULD INSTA GIB THE SHIT OUT OF THOSE EAGLES.

Think for yourself and stop getting your arguments from fucking Kevin Smith movies.

>ripping off fucking Event Horizon
where?
like seriously at no point other than explanation of FTL travel did it reminded it event horizon

I guess you'd watch more crappy Nolan films.
It's a shame because there was some degree of scientific accuracy in the first half and some really impressive visuals, but the total pile of shit plot ruined everything good they made.

You genuinely think people didn't get this? LOL. It's still a poorly made film.

Actually yes, I think that.
Most movie-goers are dumb as shit.

Find a flaw

because it wasnt their problem

Find a jaw

The only 100% perfect film is Blade Runner.

Why? Only white people can play the dumb bumbler characters?
You are a racist.

>all characters are smart ass but one
>all characters are white but one

The fuck are you talking about?

Sorry, I didn't realize you had never seen the movie.

Everyone was dumb in it though- that's part of the charm.

i think that the film cant have the intended impact on women

>he's just the Sgt. Hartmann version of a music teacher.
Except Hartmann did nothing wrong

Also In Bruges and Snatch but they've been posted

NotH could've been perfect if they hadn't made such a fuss over that girl in the end getting a gift.

He literally didn't. Hartmann didn't even break pvt. Pyle it was his dickhead recruit buddies that did that.

You're just a weeb with terrible taste

As comedy's go, it's hard to argue with this.

but he was supposed to be an annoying whiny bitch
10/10 casting if you ask me

Actual perfect film coming through

>Find a flaw
the poster suggests a shark attacks like that from below. it doesnt though. (not in that angle)

Wow Cred Forums really is full of plebs

I will be not be viewing any more of Jonze's surrogate sex fetish films

This film is fucking terrible, stop acting like it's a hidden gem.

Aged like milk and is now completely unwatchable t-b-h

Pic related and Léon. Freaking flawless.

how about its boring? kids takes waaaay too long and there is no character to enjoy. its thoughtful, but im never gonna watch it for a second time.

Leon is severely overrated

...

Fantastic film. Made me love ray fienes.

Why have you got to force sexism into everything?
Did you feel so emasculated you have to attack women for it?
That's a bit pathetic user.

KINO

agreed, and even that is crap

...

>Hurr durr making a charcter say stupid things makes the movie stupid

Trips don't lie. I just think people desperately want a movie to point to so Chris Nolan isn't the world's most perfect director ever because it makes people uncomfortable saying he is better than Hitchcock or whomever.

I like this movie, its not the 1/10 trollbait Cred Forums says it is. I think its more about doing whatever you need to do even if it kills you, living and dying in nature rather then become a corporate robot, you aren't supposed to think he's some absolute idiot you are supposed to more admire that he just accepted that nature gives life and takes it away and avoiding death isn't the point but living in the moment and living with uncompromising principles makes you a man.

One of the best meme soundtracks ever with Eddie Vedder and great scene with Kristen Stewart in panties and nice cinematography.

If you had a gun to my head and made me choose I would choose WILD over this though.

The first non-porn movie I ever fapped to. Good times.

Okay, Kids is not for you. This doesn't mean the movie is fucking awesome and flawless.

Thought "Master and Commander" but that would be too obvious.

do shows count aswell?

>le basic sports movie but with drums

Nice meme

Baraka
Koyaanisqatsi

Samsara

I was expecting this, and I gotta say I'm not disappointed.

Maybe not the greatest cape film out there but definitely on the top five.

Always loved this film until I rewatched it recently, the dialogue is unbearably cheesy and meme-ridden.
>where's le rum gone?
>oops!?
>no fair!! :^)

Samsara was the only decent one, qatsi is overrated trash

>stars matthew mahogany
>flawless

>implying matthew mconaughey is a bad actor

>>Barton Fink
>nonsense

actual turbo pleb

The dinner scene brings it down to a 9/10 for me

YOU RETRACT THAT

This.

And this one, too.

But most of all this. Noone will ever prove wrong.

Neither Barton Fink nor A Serious Man were flawless.

Barton Fink is incredibly unsatisfying - 'Oh this guy's not having a good time is he! Wowow!' That's basically the movie. The plot goes on and on and is """"resolved"""" when it's implied that things just keep getting worse for Barton.

A Serious Man is pretty similiar, just this boring, drawn-out plot about a guy who's miserable. It's not funny, I get the humour is meant to come from the uncomfortable situations but those scenes just make me feel uncomfortable.

I like all Coen Brothers films, but their three worst, by far, are The Man Who Wasn't There, Barton Fink and A Serious Man.

It's not a poorly made film, you just didn't like it.

>The Man Who Wasn't There

Fuck you. That movie was fine.

I retract the bit about your cunt fuckin kids.

>A bunch of people hang out in Casablanca and nothing happens
>Flawless

>Ditches girl to get berated by a complete fucking asshole to have a momentary clawing at a potential spotlight in a rapidly decaying remnant of a redundant genre of music

Literally flawless

>nothing happens
What are you talking about? Casablanca has a better story than most shit Hollywood puts out.

Tbh half their films suck and fail to even hit a mark. I don't get their humor, I think it constantly falls flat.

Women will always be there. Being the absolute best at something, even if it's only for a brief moment in time, doesn't happen in everyone's life.

>i dont understand it so its shit

This isnt reddit

For most of the people on this board, women won't happen in their life

It is called classic cinema. You never heard of it.

Unless there's some commentary or in-joke I'm not seeing, I just don't think they're funny. Way way more miss than hit.

This is the worst attempt a trolling i've ever seen

this movie is like half amazing and half retarded

tried to please everybody

Well what do you think is inside a black hole?

Love. That's what.

...

A serious man was so fucking good. I grew up in the midwest and knew a lot of reform jews and their kids. It's such an interesting portrait of that period of time.

>Trips don't lie. I just think people desperately want a movie to point to so Chris Nolan isn't the world's most perfect director ever because it makes people uncomfortable saying he is better than Hitchcock or whomever.

Whatever lead you to that thought, avoid repeating in the future.

TDKR is much worse than Interstellar anyway, and Interstellar is pretty fucking bad.

The only right answer

Retard here.
So did he died? when and where did he died?
In the ocean? in the stage? jumping off the window?

Jimmy Stewart was never considered to be unattractive. Plus he has a great job and nice apartment in the film so it's believable that he'd have a pretty gf. Didn't they work together too?

>Poorly made film

The fantastic editing and performance by J.K. Simmons prove that you're wrong.

Problem with it is that it does have a role on how Cooper communicated with Murph on the fifth dimension bullshit, or do we have to forget:

>ITS LOVE, TARS

I fucking loved that movie. The fact that it basically took the simple concept of social norms and extrapolated it into a sillier take on Cast Away made it quite memorable. Easily one of the best written original stories this year.

Only good answer so far.

I watched Anomalisa the other day.

While certainly interesting (and apparently painstaking to make), and I do like Charlie Kaufman, it wasn't flawless, and I have no interest in ever seeing it again.

The second half sucked ass.
The Godfather was literally the opposite of what I thought about Scarface, its really good in the second half but meh in the first half.

...

yep

Triggered

>the shitty attempt at portraying American English like 5 minutes in
turned it off there tbdesu

The acting is over the top, the dialogue is unrealistic, the setting is poorly portrayed, the action is unrealistic, etc. Some of the insults are funny, but the dialogue when tempo man is off-screen is downright bad, just aping Sorkin's style without being clever or having any tonal range. It's an amateurish one-note meme film.

Reasonable answers.

Nolan in a fucking nutshell.

...

Titanic is also a very good film in its own right. Hard to classify anything with Leo as flawless, but Titanic is close to perfect in reaching what it wants.

> Tedious, clichéd drama
> Cringy dialogue
> Billy Zane

It is not even enjoyable.

...

He's not full blooded Italian

Good point. Same

...

I would say that this is nearly a flawless movie.

Its only flaw the the very first scene showing a spacecraft flying to Earth. I think the movie should not have had that scene.

Albeit a good film the plot was kinda predictable

even the two main actors were 10/10s

...

t. anti-fun guy

What? I don't get it.

they didn't have a bigger boat

It's pretty much the epitome of a comfy movie though... doesn't need to age well or be intelligent, it's just a good flick to put on when nothing else looks good.

Who is this little girl?

Yes I've seen it

Looks like the poster from Prometheus.

Disturbia was better

>the dialogue is unrealistic
I disagree, any examples to back this up?

>the setting is poorly portrayed
What are you talking about? What setting?

>the action is unrealistic
Action as in playing drums? Emotional action? How would you improve them, I think it's some of the most tense footage from the past few years because it felt realistic.

>etc.
Did you use that term because you couldn't come up with more "reasons"?

>flawless
with those actors it's basically confirmed trash

to be fair if we count mistakes like that i don't think theres ever been a flawless film

Because that would have been a boring trilogy to watch, faggot

kek me too

He used the term "meme-film", I don't think you should even give him the time of day.

lawrence's entire motivation in the second half doesnt make sense

he leaves the desert as a hero, but because nobody will ever look at him as a true arab. Fine

But then he finally realizes that england wont give the arabs freedom, but he still decides to help them fight. They're marching on one last city, they dont really need his help anyway, but he goes anyway. Now he's come back to the arbs, and there is an entire scene where probably a 100 or so people are shouting his name and hailing him as a hero, yet he chooses to use mercenaries who dont care about Democracy instead of literally any 30 people in the army who would throw their lives down for him

why?

how about the entire last 1/2 hour

its great, but it feels like it loses its suspense if you see it again. Rewatches require lots of time in between

according the director, there is literally no real explanation

...

the movie clearly wants you to think fletcher is a good guy at the end of the movie (with how he "guides" his drum solo and his nod of approval) which makes this fall flat on its face, just like the shitty movie.

also practicing the drums until your hands bleed is a surefire way to never be physically able to drum again and buddy rich never practiced a day in his life

J.K. Simmons' character just wanted his own personal Charlie PARKER to shout at and abuse.

Pottery?

This is pretty spot on, but I don't think that most people missed this idea.

...

All the characters was dumb.
You really are grasping at straws here.

Stupid man's Gunbuster.

Oh, right, what was the story again? The main character is in Casablanca and he waits for his plane home. That's some epic shit right there.

>To the audience this isn't too clear, because by the end of this movie we're supposed to like the guy and see how proud he is of Andrew after that long-ass drum solo.

I think we're falling into the Starship Troopers hole here.

"It's satire" says you.
"But I like the message" says someone else.
"No but don't you get it, it's satire, you're not supposed to like it or agree with it" says you.
"But I do agree with it" says them.

Starship Troopers is the best example because the creator (Verhoeven) constantly nags about it being satiiiiire on commentary. The problem is that if people like your satire unironically and support the face value message there isn't anything you can do about it.

A whole generation were gung ho about killing bugs and don't see the movie as anything else.

>Fletcher is a dick, a villain.

Says you. Maybe even the director. But regardless of his intentions, his actions created a prodigy. Which was his plan all along.

>the movie clearly wants you to think fletcher is a good guy at the end of the movie (with how he "guides" his drum solo and his nod of approval) which makes this fall flat on its face

Why?

If you've ever nodded in agreement with "art through adversity" you should slap yourself right now.

except when he shoots the midget. it's obviously not a fucking child

If you try to argue, fuck you you lose.

Though, I see Crispin Glover's point, I think he overreacted, big time, by end McFly family wasn't even that rich, they looked like fine mid class family, maybe upper mid class.

because fletcher is completely nonredeemable to a point hes a shitty jazz artist a shitty person who wanted to ruin the career of his student who basically killed himself for his band, etc etc yet the movie wants you to like him at the end of it.

samsara is boring, baraka and koyaan are based

>A Serious Man is pretty similiar, just this boring, drawn-out plot about a guy who's miserable. It's not funny, I get the humour is meant to come from the uncomfortable situations but those scenes just make me feel uncomfortable.

You didn't seem to get it at all. It's gallow's humor about life. It's an extremely jewish movie, and the questions asked about life and meaning are literally referenced and compared to the jewish interpretation in the movie itself.

You're spoonfed what it's about but you're looking for a sitcom anyway?

>I like all Coen Brothers films, but their three worst, by far, are The Man Who Wasn't There, Barton Fink and A Serious Man.
Those are quite literally their best films . Even considering the fact that you're a massive pleb , how the Hell can you say the lady killers or intolerable cruelty are better than those three ?
