>>580416110

for all you war fags
http://www.liveleak com/view?i=7a1_1370745925
>>580419454
And before you start incorrectly bitching about anti-intellectualism, this is coming from someone who is fucking learning Japanese just to watch some cartoons. So fuck you double, nigger.
>>580419835
If you don't have two hours of free time to watch a movie then why the fuck are you trying to watch a movie? Are you dyslexic or some shit?
>>580416110
Also brazilian movie.
>>580420082
it's called peripheral vision and being able to afford two monitors because you are hustling instead of jerking off about how good you are at appreciating the vision of the auteur.
Pretty Village, Pretty Flame
MONEY OVER EVERYTHING, MOTHERFUCKER!
Ip Man.
The first in the series.
good skite
>>580416532
a rarity, a good french movie. and by good i mean ok, pretty much every french movie are bad exept the besson's ones. and I know what i'm talking about, i'm french
>>580420023
That movie's synopsis sounds bad ass. Added to my queue. Thanks!
>>580419026
NICO!!!
>>580420349
Then maybe you should start trying to focus more on getting money and less on being a faggot.
>>580420239
why are you in a movie thread, you sound like an underaged cod-fan
>>580416110
Watch Russian "Cargo 200" by Alexi Balabanov, this is ain interesting film. You can find the trailer on youtube.
>>580416110
I saw city of god when I was younger...looking back it's just a film about niggers being niggers....eh.
>>580417376
This one's really goddamn good.
Also, the Diving Bell and the Butterfly.
>>580416110
the host
>>580419454
fuck you, i don't want to sit and read subtitles for 2 hours
Army of Shadows was a pretty decent french film.
>>580416110
If you like old boy watch "I saw the devil"
>>580420556
I know right, what a fucking spazzed out ADD 12-year-old.
"Muh dubs, I can't be arsed to actually watch a movie when it's playing." It's literally the least involved form of entertainment and this lizard is too dumb to keep up.
>>580419587
The fact that it was a true story made it somewhat more special than others.
Although that was in its own genre of heartfelt comedy, as a more gritty film Dragon Tattoo movies do it for me.
Anime wise "Akira"
(I just watched the 25th anniversary BluRay of it and it came with an English dub but it doesnt feel as captivating when not in Japenese)
>>580416110
A Company Man and Rough Cut are some good Korean films.
>>580419026
the downfall of all hispanic boys
Black Book was voted the best dutch film ever. Very cool film.
>>580420842
Then what the fuck are you doing in a foreign movies thread.
>>580420501
If you want to hold my interest long enough to have a little bitch fight here on the interwebs, say shit that actually makes sense in context, fuckstick.
I DON'T HAVE FREE TIME BECAUSE I'M FUCKING BUSY YOU FUCKING RETARD. THE ONLY REASON I'M TALKING IN THIS FUCKING THREAD IS BECAUSE I'M FUCKING REINITIALIZING MY FUCKING 12 NODE HADOOP CLUSTER.
>>580420842
american detected - doesn't know he's in a foreign films thread and is confused and angry.
>>580421102
>, I can't be arsed to actually watch a movie when it's playing
Yes. Exactly. Because. I'm. Fucking. Busy. Getting. Rich. You. Stupid. Nigger. Faggot.
>>580416110
Hey bro, tell us what is your native country? I suppose you are an amerifag and you search for a non-made-un-hollywood movie but you have to be precize
Always (2011) is also a pretty good romance movie
If you intend to try a good spanish movie, I'll give a chance to "El Camino a Ninguna Parte". It's probably my favourite one.
>>580421249
umadbro?
Nobody cares why you don't have free time. It's literally irrelevant to everything, you're just trying to increase your e-peen by making it sound like you have important shit to do.
I'm making fun of you because despite being busy, you still try to watch movies and complain that it's too difficult to watch a movie when your attention is diverted. Of course it is, retard. Why are you trying to watch a movie when you're busy?
>>580416110
let the right one in.
Not the retardedanised american version with the chick from Kickass in it.
Also 'the hunt' starring the german guy from Hannibal. Its about pedophiles. Top tier. Arguably god tier.
'Mother'. korean film. top tier
>>580421374
"I'm getting so rich right now" --nobody with money, ever.
Only poorfags brag on the internet about how much money they're supposedly making.
>>580421472
I'm South-African. But yeah I mean non-english films. This was a pretty good movie made in South-Africa
>>580420457
French films are an acquired taste.
>>580421815
I remember that film - not bad. I liked Stander and district 9 also.
Mind you, there are the occasional exceptions that must be made. Gaspar Noe for instance. I always have time for Noe.
Bong Joon-ho also. Luc Besson occasionally. Timur Bekmambetov.
Jean-Pierre Jeunet.
But other than that, I ain't got time for no bullshit looky loo.
>>580416532
Great film. Canada-France co-production. Heavy. Stays in your mind a long time.
ALSO:
funny games
fantastic planet
seven samuai
rashomon
the 400 blows
contempt
lola montes
3 colours trilogy
la pere noel est un ordure (funny as fuck)
stalker
andrei rublev
rules of the games
wild strawberries
la dolce vita
This guy is correct - never watch dubbed films
>>580419454
>>580421990
Also Pierre Morel.
But other than that, no.
This is England is a really good movie.
I'm assuming you're American and not a person from England looking for a foreign film.
>>580420457
I found Le Samourai enjoyable.
Tsotsi
>>580416110
Headhunters
great suspense film. has the kingslayer
As a South African, I can agree >>580421815
>>580422438
Trust me, if you understood danish, You'd be cringing throughout the whole film.
The Hunt. Will make you cry, tho.
I like action films. Here's my favorite foreign action movies.
Hero. God tier cinematography. But if you don't like crouching tiger stuff you might not like it.
Infernal affairs. The movie "the departed" 100% copied infernal affairs.
District 13, aka B13. It's basically "Parkour: the movie."
PS. Everyone who said old boy is a good film is telling the truth.
Fantastic film
>>580417864
There is nothing good in mexico
>>580422598
Its Norwegian though?
>>580419252
mah nigga
>>580418838
2nded
>>580422139
Omfg this movie... Took 2 tabs of LSD and Watched it with some friends as the trip came on... What a mind fuck. But amazing movie. It had us by the balls toward the end. It's become a safe word among us
The Raid 1 and 2
>>580421746
I'm not bragging about how much money I'm making. I'm not making money. I'm building something that is going to make me rich. This is not bragging. This is explaining the reason why I do not have time to sit down and read a movie for two hours.
Also my cluster awaits, so allow me to sum up my argument with the following:
I'm building an AI while learning Japanese.
Please. Say more things about how you are better than me, because you are good at liking the moving pictures, faggot.
>>580422785
Agreed. The plot sounded straight-forward, but I was thoroughly impressed with how the film developed. One of the best climaxes in cinema too!
Castaway on the Moon
Flipped a coin when it popped up on my recommended list ended up loving it. Now it's one of my all time favorites.
>>580420457
LOL.
You being French doesn't mean shit.
Besson is great but if you think French films are bad you either have poor taste in film, or you haven't seen many French films. Try ones that were made before you were born.
Beauty and the Beast (original, not Disney)
8 women
Monsieur Hire
Manon of the Spring
Children of Paradise
3 Colours Trilogy
Jules & Jim
Queen Margot
The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie
Ridicule
Trop Belle pour Toi
Cyrano de Bergerac
the Piano Teacher
the Return of Martin Guerre
and a lot more
"The City of Lost Children".
My favorite somewhat deep & dark Christmas classic!
Do yourself a favor and watch it in the original French. You can always watch the dubbed version afterwards. You'll wanna watch it again anyway! I watch it in December every year!
You want a movie that'll move you?
"La Vita e Bella" (Life Is Beautiful).
>>580423470
this.
Brilliant film
This movie is pretty good
>>580420239
Playing a movie at the same time as doing something else is NOT watching a movie.
Not a serious movie, anyway. I guess you could watch most action movies that way, or Adam Sandler movies, but not a real movie.
Diabolique
>>580423114
god-tier fight scene
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90KUWDE2Knc
>>580423470
/thread
Also, "irreversible" is good.
>>580420782
>the Diving Bell and the Butterfly
that's an American movie . . .so, if OP is American it's not foreign
>>580416110
Labyrinth, featuring David Bowie's cod-piece
>>580420457
>Le Temps Du Loup
>La Vie d'Adèle
>Irreversible
>well, pretty much anything done by Gaspar Noe
If this is bad, then I assume you've got some pretty fucking high standards because anything else is shit-tier.
>>580423935
fuck off.
>>580416110
>>580423412
>You can always watch the dubbed version afterwards.
NEVER ruin a movie by watching a dubbed version.
It's like putting home heating oil in a Ferrari, or adding tobacco to weed like a poorfag.
>>580418316
That was pretty good, and I don't even like contemporary Japanese cinema (except Sion Sono, that director is top tier).
>>580417376
>>580419252
>>580420782
>>580421156
Highly recommend the above but my favorite is Let the Right One In
>>580421815
naaah, its pretty terrible.
>>580423406
>Besson is great
Go fuck a bag of chips, Besson WAS great, he went full retard after the Fifth element
>>580416110
If you're looking for a masterpiece
>Irreversible
And you insane fags might like the uncut anal rape scene
>>580423710
If you had been paying attention you would notice that i actually did mention that I do make some exceptions. But they are exceptions. The rule is that I have too much shit to do to watch a fucking movie.
This is now actively taking time away from my work and thus I am closing the tab and walking the fuck away from you ambitionless faggots who are jerking themselves off over appreciating someone else's work because they believe that, in some way, reflects positively on them any further than not being a complete retard.
Good day to you, sir.
>>580424636
I agree with this besson statement. Besson made some great movies back in the day. fifth element will always be one of my favorites.
But he hasn't made anything good in years
>>580421706
Mads Mikklesen is Danish
I'll let you off though, The Hunt is fucking awesome
>>580422764
This was pretty harcore.
>>580418768
jaaaaa!
Does Canada count as foreign?
Because anything Astron 6 made in Winnipeg deserves to be considered
Decent (good imo) french horror:
Haute tension, ils and frontieres
Los Cronocrimes is the only good recently Spanish movie I can remember. Then there's Airbag which is very funny but I'm not sure you're gonna get some jokes if you're not a Spainard.
>>580422139
Awww yeah.
>>580423062
Jesus Christ man.
>>580419735
thats all they fucking do the koreans, cry, what a bunch of fuvking cry babies, waaaaaaaaahhhh
>>580423935
Once saw a girl and a con cosplaying as David Bowie in the labyrinth, she had stuck a sock down her tights for real authenticity.
Probably already been said but Let The Right One In is fantastic
>>580419454
Anyone who watches dubbed movies is a pleb faggot
How have none of you niggers mentioned Biutiful with javier bardem. Go watch it now fuck everything else in this thread
>>580426853
this isn't even korean, since you're a gigantic faggot :
A bittersweet life
The Host
The Chaser
Mother
Breathless
The trilogy of vengeance
Koreans don't cry, they shit gold
>>580420239
>busy hustling
Oh, fuck
My sides
>>580416110
>Oldboy
You should watch Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance and Lady Vengeance. They have the same director as Oldboy and I actually prefer them over Oldboy as well.
>>580427263
bwahahaha funniest shit i seen all day thankyou for taking the time to suggest more movies, ill look for them on youtube, peace
Korea:
3-iron (weirdish, but top tier)
Sympathy for Lady Vengeance (by the director of Oldboy)
The Front Line (from Korean war)
China:
Infernal Affairs
Ip Man (superb kung fu)
>>580424547

>>580423114
also this (at least the first one)
>>580416110
The Wave is good so is City of Lost Children
