This reeks of 'I was on my phone while I was watching'

>5. Ghandi
>4. Casablanca
>3. Citizen Kane
>2. Gone with the Wind
>1. 2001: A Space Odyssey
I lost 5 times.

I agree with this.

Movies are meant for entertainment not for snoring.

>>64477500
someone just write the list
I'm not giving those leafcucks views

>>64477500
but it's true that most of those films are a bit boring for most people

>boring

I watched a watchmojo video once.

Now they always show up as recommended and I end up watching them on accident.

I'm pretty sure I haven't seen one that didn't make me rage.

>>64477500
What the fuck is this? Are they merely baiting at this point?

I mean, someone arguing Tarr's, Tarkovsky's or Ming-liang's work being "boring" is something I can on some level understand, but Citizen Kane? Casablanca? Close Encounters? FUCKING BLADE RUNNER!?

This is a new low.

>>64478868
>Are they merely baiting at this point?
They've always been baiting. WatchMojo videos are viewfarms.

Anybody want to post the list so I can tut to myself without giving them an extra view?

>>64478868
>Tarr
>Ming-liang
>WatchMojo

>>64478726
Same, I go into a fit of rage when i hear that cunts voice at the beginning of a video.

>Blade Runner
>"The action scenes, characters and setting are all great, but the conversations are too long :(

God I fucking hate normies, why can't we just hang all these people again?
Bet that bitch has the attention span of a hamster, demanding constant action scenes in movies or else she'll be grabbing for her phone. So now we get movies like the new Star Wars, with non-stop action and no meaningful conversation whatsoever.
Yes I'm mad, it's because of these people that modern movies suck.

>>64477500
>Lawrence of Arabia
DAE hate sand?

My favourite part was when she said "Much of the three hour runtime consists of dialogue"

>>64477500

>Skip to the Citizen Kane section
>they start complaining about some scenes being "filler" and not "necessary for the story"

Why are plebs so obsessed with plot? Did they just purposefully miss the point to piss off autists?

>>64477500

Everyone's getting upset about them calling these classics boring but nobody has underlined the real shit.

THEY'RE COMPARING FUCKING BOYHOOD TO LAWRENCE OF ARABIA AND CITIZEN CANE

>>64477800
Is Ghandi considered a masterpiece?

>>64479827

I personally prefer Boyhood to those films and think it's one of the best films ever made

I just watched 2001 for the first time in years and wasn't bored once. In every scene there's so much stuff to look at, it flew by so fast

>>64477935
>>64478984
>10. Lawrence of Arabia
>9. Blade Runner
>8. Dead Man Walking
>7. Close Encounters of the Third Kind
>6. Boyhood
>5. Ghandi
>4. Casablanca
>3. Citizen Kane
>2. Gone with the Wind
Honorable Mentions:
Lincoln
Dancer in the Dark
Brokeback Mountain
The English Patient
>1. 2001: A Space Odyssey

>>64479988
You are cancer

I'm not a kino buff or anything but the only movie I've found to be terribly, horribly boring and almost turned off was Out of Africa. I know, the slow pace was inteded and blah blah. But Jesus, what a shitty movie.

>>64477500
i agree with 2001 though

>>64480020
Thanks for writing that shit down.

And wow what a bunch of plebs, they should buy some Adderall.

>>64480161
Fuck off nigger, its not even that long, you probably loved Avengers 2 which was longer

>>64480020
>Dead Man Walking
>Boyhood
>Ghandi
>Lincoln
>Brokeback Mountain
>The English Patient
What the fuck.

>>64477800
Okay say what you want but 2001 is boring as shit. Beautifully shot, but slow as a motherfucker.

>>64480020
Dead Man Walking is the odd man out. Was this just a trojan horse for some Dead Man Walking owns?

>>64477500

The watch mojoface is literally fucking ":^)". I am being trolled.

>>64480184
>its not even that long
The drawn out scenes made it long, seriously this takes 10 fucking minutes.

>>64480298
Sure it looks cool but it gets old after 3 fucking minutes.

>>64480294

I feel like you have no bearing of what Canada is like at all. That's okay though friend.

>>64480017
Fucking this, I don't understand how anyone can find it boring or slow. I watched it about 7 times and every time it goes by really fast for a 2:40 film.

>>64477500
If you find Lawrence of Arabia and Gone With the Wind boring, you should kill yourself for being plebeian, millennial trash.

>>64480315
fairly spot on aside from the whiny sjw jab at american identity (not a fan of spielberg though don't get me wrong)

>>64479756
>Did they just purposefully miss the point to piss off autists?

Yeah. This is how they make their living.

>>64480315

what a pretentious asshole (the guy who drew this piece of shit, not Roger "God" Ebert)

>>64477500

this is what /tv/ says about everything that isn't some ebin sci-fi garbage though

>nothing happens
>da story suked
>da ending suked

Fuck off. You literally do this too.

>>64477500
in case you don't want to give them clicks

>10. Lawrence of Arabia

>8. Dead Man Walking
>7. Close Encounter of the Third Kind
>6. Boyhood
>5. Gandhi
>4. Casablanca
>3. Citizen Kane

I agree with a few of their selections (especially 2001) but otherwise this is pure clickbait.

Why would you take watchmojo seriously?

They have never made a single good list. They literally have a voting system on their site and rank it according to popularity. Its a drone income source, they clarify almost every video "for the record WE don't necessarily think this"

They threw a fissy fit and went all out in comments when some YouTube channel called them out for this

Literally why???????

>>64480499
Well congrats on being an idiot, what do you expect me to say to something like that?

>>64480020
What the fuck, they didn't even say Stalker which had an opening that was a purposeful attempt to stop mongoloids with short attention spans watching.
This list is both wrong and really weird.

>>64480545
One of you said they don't understand how they found it boring, i just said i fucking fell asleep. That's how boring the movie is. Seriously one of Kubrick's most overrated movies ever.

>>64480614
The stargate being as long as it is completely makes sense, considering it's importance and the context, dude is literally being superevolved into an alien. Also, the visuals look amazing and the music sounds amazing. 10 minutes is not even that long, what the hell

>Boyhood
>Masterpiece
Only time I truly lost it. I understand why some people find these films boring

Okay, good, I'm not the only one pissed at this list

>>64477500
How would your list look like?
I'm thinking of:
>Why Does Herr R. Run Amok?
>Stalker
>Conspirators of Pleasure
>Caché
Can't think of more atm. Maybe Man with a Camera

>>64480943
I forgot Even Dwarfs Started Small.

>>64480943
>Conspirators of Pleasure is boring

wat

>>64480943
Definitely some Bergman.
L'Avventura
Inland Empire
Cache also
The Sacrifice
Once Upon A Time In Anatolia

>>64477500
My personal list:

Bresson's filmography.

>using 'boring' as criticism

one of the true marks of the plebeian

In previous top ten movie lists they specifically used the excuse of "dur were not gonna list movies the same way your film study teacher would we're actually choosing FUN stuff"

>>64481030
Once it really starts it's great. But if I remember correctly the first 45 minutes they were all just buying stuff or some boring shit.

>watchmojo

>>64480678
I thought Andrei Tarkovsky said that.

>>64481030
I second this anon

>>64480943
>>64481042
>this is the film board

What a good and easy as piss idea for a youtube channel
>lets make a bunch of top X lists and release dozens every day
>some will only get 20 views but some might get 20 million!

I wish I thought of it

>>64480196
Why don't you kill yourself right now?

>>64480943

Winter Sleep

>>64480678
>>64481185
>The film needs to be slower and duller at the start so that the viewers who walked into the wrong theatre have time to leave before the main action starts
Did he not say this or am I interpreting it wrong?

There is an entire generation riddled with ADD from doing nothing in their free time except play video games, browse extremely fast-moving social media sites and watch fast-paced brainless capeshit. These people will be in charge of how western nations work in a couple of decades.

Do you actually think our shit is fucked up now? You have no idea how bad it will get.

>>64481295
Even if he did, that reasoning is dumb as fuck. The beginning is still a part of the movie and every part of the movie should be as captivating as possible, ESPECIALLY the beginning. Tark is great but he was a jaded, /tv/autist-tier asshole.

>>64481210
You could argue about Stalker and Conspirators but wasn't it even intended that the other two are boring?

>>64481404
There's that word again...

>>64481537
Did you even watch those movies? This is the right term.

>>64481635
I did. It's not.

>>64481675
What is your problem? Are you arguing that for example the whole point of the first 85 minutes of Why Does Herr Run Amok is not to bore and exhaust the watcher?

funnily enough, not at one point did I think this movie was boring

As far as I'm concerned if you can't watch all of Satantango without zoning out or being bored, you are an ADHD ridden plebeian. Let alone something as easy and short as 2001: A Space Odyssey.

>>64477500
>Not posting a pomf.se link

>>64480943
Herr R. would be the only film I'd put this label on. The boringness was in the film on purpose though...I'm confused, does it count then or not?

>>64480020
Surprised Das Boot didn't even get an honourable mention.
