D.W. Griffith Edition - Birth of a Nation apologists are welcomed here if they bring in some discussion.
What's you opinion on Intolerance? The Jesus and the French episodes were a bore to be honest. The very best one is the Mother and the Baby of course.

>The four episodes chosen by Griffith are actually uncollatable. The formal failure of their mingling in a single image of Intolerance is only a reflection of a thematic and ideological error . . . The secret of this is not professional-technical, but ideological-intellectual.
Eisenstein on Intolerance
Broken Blossoms is better
>>83939715
The Birth of a Nation needs no apology. Intolerance is its equal, spellbinding throughout, and such a step forward in intellectual sophistication about editing that it inspired most of the cutting-edge things happening in European film until sound. Griffith never stopped being great, even his last two movies, made with sound, are distinctive and powerful. I need to see everything by him!
Was he really a bad person?
>burned his own daughter alive
Yeah

>>83939690
Not bad as far as GoT goes, but he would have made a terrible king.

>Authority is not given to you to deny the Return of the King, Stuart!
Why did he call him Stuart? I thought his name was Denethor?
This really confused me
>>83939630
Denethor was his surname. His full name was Stuart 'Stewie' Denethor
>>83939672
Like Gandalf is really called Gandalf Mithrandir?

Good cgi always looks good
>>83939381
>practicals from any year still look better than CGI from 2017
Why is this allowed?
It's becoming increasingly obvious that you can make CGI look good if you put in the time and effort.
Why do all e-celeb friendships always end in drama?

Never seen this show before. Is it worth watching? I like Bill Burr most of the time. I've seen /tv/ shit on it more then a few times. What's so wrong about it?
>>83938959
The sons are unbearable.
First season is alright, seconds season shits the bed. Probably because Goldberg and Stein joined as producers
I need to protect Maureen's smile.

ITT: Movies that could have taken place in the characters head.
The Evil Dead trilogy all took place in Ash's head in an attempt to explain away his murder of his friends and girlfriend after smoking some marijauna laced in something stronger than cannabis. He even goes so far as to cut his own hand off to make the story more believable to himself and people that ask. The claymation effects in the first film represent a person attempting to think up something on the spot. Whereas the second film has a bigger budget, thusly they are more elaborate in that he's a better constructor of his lies.
The final film has Ash battling his "evil side", but ultimately loses, as he ends the movie with him gunning down a random shopper before he's shot down by police.
>>83938198
Then how do you explain Ash vs Evil Dead?
>>83938198
I think you smoked laced Marijuana
>>83938285
With season 2, it literally only helps this theory tho.
