What is the most powerful shot in the history of cinema?
>>80104500
incoming 200 pics of Bane
Off the top of my head, this, but there's probably something better.
>>80104564
nice lobster
>>80104564
Ayy
>>80104564
>that aspect ratio
Why do they even shoot movies on phones?
>>80104564
is this from the directors cut? i dont remember any lobsters in the searchers
>>80104500
I don't know what exactly you mean by "powerful" but I kinda think of recognisability so I'd go with almost anything 2001: ASO has to offer
don't know why but I'd also say the railing shot with Jack and Rose in Titanic
>>80104564
what makes a lobster to wander?
what makes a lobster to roam?
What makes a lobster leave his coral reef
And turn his back on the ocean?
Crawl away, crawl away, crawl away
>>80104564
MOOOOOOT
>>80104775
>don't know why but I'd also say the railing shot with Jack and Rose in Titanic
same
probably this one
>>80104858you've been posting this movie a lot
>>80104500
>and she never acted again
what in the fuck
>>80104500
Just from what I can think of right at this moment
Horror:
Exorcist (demon girl)
Action:
Terminator 2 (the scene where he is holding the shotgun
Die Hard 1 (scene where Willis is in the vent)
Drama:
Titanic (scene in which Titanic is sinking)
>>80105236
>titanic
>drama
kys, titanic is an action-romance lowest common denominator flick
>>80105394
Then show me its body.
>>80105394
Doesn't look very dead
>>80105394
Then show me its body.
Literally cried when I saw this shot
>>80105394
hothead alert!
>People fear what they don't understand
I have this image/scene in my head for a fucking year now and I have no clue what film it is.
It's is a man walking down a straight, with a cigarette in his hand. The camera is on a dolly as he walks down the street. There's this wall opposite him, then there's a gap.
Inside the gap is a pile of bodies. They're burning. This pile is huge as well, about a 100 bodies. The man doesn't even look up and the camera follows him, then the gap closes as the camera and man continue down the street.
Please help /tv/
>>80105324
>baiting this hard
also, romance falls under drama
>>80104564
Why would a shot of a lobster be the most powerful shot in cinema history?
>>80105802
>It's is a man walking down a straight
https://youtu.be/vKZPgGbUuX0?t=232
3:52-3:58 is my favorite shot in the entire history of cinema, but I like a dash of corn.
as for actual stills, literally all of my favorites are from beyond the black rainbow.
>>80105394
GET
>>80105885
Soz, my mind is trying to work out the film.
"It's a man walking down a straight down a street"
>>80105965

>>80105927
God-tier taste, anon
>>80105394
FOR YOU

>down a straight down a street"
>>80105927
Why did they all stop using their lances just before the cavalry hit their line? Shouldn't they have skewered the knights first THEN cut them down with their swords?
>>80105802
I have no clue, but I'll just guess it's a holocaust movie
>>80106174
I still don't understand what people are complaining about with this image
Does it look artificial like they're standing in front of a green screen?
Is it that the color looks lifeless?
Do people on /tv/ even know what they're complaining about? They tend to call everything that isn't literally indistinguishable from reality "crap CGI"
>>80106254
because extras would have literally died.
>>80106306
>looks fake
>no colour
>bland shot/bad cinematography
>no shadows
>>80106306
The CGI lighting effects are absolutely terrible, which makes it obvious that its CGI and therefore fake looking.
Look at the shadows. Especially compare the shadows of the people on the ground with the shadow of that flying dude. Where is the light supposed to be coming from?
Also its extremely bland and boring looking for a scene I suppose is trying to show an "epic" line up of heroes.
Obvious choice.
>>80106306
looks kind of copypasted, my dude.
>>80107006

>>80105802
The Pianist
>>80105965
Its The Pianist, u really drunk my man
The final scene of Three Colors: Blue always gets me; the way the music plays off of the images of each character dealing with grief and still finding a way to carry on despite it never fails to move me.
I can cry on cue just thinking about the end of The Searchers. Ethan does nothing to deserve that response but somehow Ford pulls it off in just 3 scenes at the end of the film
>>80111523

Came to post that. It's my phone background, as I scroll it shows more with Death being the furthest right
>>80104564

>>80109936
Is EoE better than NGE? I found NGE to be kinda crappy so didn't bother continuing to the end of the season and watching EoE

Dino cartoon starring John Goodman. Ending turns into kino outta nowhere(pic related)
>>80105965
thanks m8 that cleared it right up
>>80116433
i got really bored in NGE, so i skipped ahead to EoE. its a masterpiece.
>>80117607
Looks like We're BackBasic plot: a man and his brother are fighting over the nature of intelligent beings. The man's brother is convinced all people are inherently at their core evil and selfish. The man believes all are inherently good and selfless. To prove this, he resurrects dinosaurs, gives them human intelligence, and lets them wander around New York. They make friends with some kids. The brother the kidnaps those kids and puts them in a circus as a sideshow exhibit, after devolving them into ape-people. The dinosaurs do the selfless things and turn themselves over to the brother to let the kids go. The brother then devolves them and uses their brutality to inspire fear as a main event in his circus. He wants to prove that all things are motivated by fear and power more than love and goodness. He is proven wrong when the dinos act selfless whithout needing to evolve back into intellgient beings, and everyone in the audience is disgusted by his cruelty. In his last scene, he is then left all alone in the middle of the empty circus tent, and gets eaten by crows, which represent fear and terror, as a recurring motif through the movie. He dies being consumed by his own fears and insecurities, while everyone else overcomes theirs.
Pretty deep for a kids' movie. Thanks, Spielberg.
>>80117063
the shot on it's own isn't much but the entire scene with the music fading in and his face makes it pretty good
>>80117931
>>80118154
Thanks guys!
that scene in stalker where they're on the train and it shows close ups of the faces for 5 minutes straight
truly,.... kino at it's finest

id argue it would have been some ww2 era propaganda/patriotic film, if that kind of video counts as cinema

The final scene at the beach during sunset.

Also dude had a fucking screw for an eye
Amd there's a bunch of recognizable voice acting

Protip: The Dirlewanger Brigade in which the Waffen-SS squad in the film was based on weren't your common rank and file in the German army at the time. These were exterminators that are reported to have behaved exactly in this sort of way, because how are you going to deal with your job when you are committing genocide? By being all grim and existential about it?
Making light of a grim situation and demonizing the other to the point of sadistically treating them as something less than human is a well documented behaviour, just look at reports and studies on what happened in Rwanda or Guantanamo for well documented analysis on how these things happen.
>>80120658
Enjoy your "kino"
>>80120757
I don't enjoy kino, I study it, you can't do the same because you're plebian shit that can't hold attention for more than 1 second
>>80120867
Oh yes, I concede victory to the one who does not enjoy, but studies the kino. I was wrong and you are right. Please tell me, does the green paint symbolize? Envy? Or maybe growth? Does the paint's drying symbolize how time takes the fresh and new, then turns it old and set? Lesser movie watchers wouldn't have the attention span to watch the entire loop of that gif, unlike you. You really need to see the whole thing for the message to sink in. I'm sure a student of kino like yourself understands that more than anyone.

this scene
>>80124062
In a way that's true, if simply because it was only during the expressionist era that people were figuring out how to actually set up a shot.
>>80117114
Is there any particular reason the framing of this shot cuts off the right of the circle?
>>80124402

This one only works in motion. But since this thread is about SHOTS, not individual frames, the element of motion is to be taken into account.

Most people don't realize it, but framing was often a huge guessing game before the days of instant digital previews. Cinematographers had to eyeball that shit and have a very profound understanding of the lenses they were using and what exactly they did.
