Slacker (1991)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102943/
>A day in the life of Austin, Texas as the camera roams from place to place and provides a brief look at the overeducated, the social misfits, the outcasts and the oddballs.
This is the one you're looking for.
A lot of indie films are like that, a lot, a lot, a lot.
The last one i watched was Old Joy a few days ago. Pure kino.
If you haven't watched Slacker yet you should OP

>space truckers follow routine sos investigation
>mishap occurs
>some deaths
>space trucker goes to bed
>>80175645
>There isn't
Its literally the last shot of the movie.
>>80175692
A lot of movies nothing happens.
Dont blame me, I didnt make them
ALL these coming of age movies by a bunch of hipsters.
Last Picture Show
Dazed and Confused
Everybody Wants Some!
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Frances Ha
ITT: movies people didn't pay attention to
>>80175692
>follow routine sos investigation
They violated protocol by bringing him back onboard.
>>80175139
Dude, there was a party at the moon tower. That was a happening.
>>80175736
How can you pay attention when you turn your brain off?
>>80175675
i guess it means nothing significant to anyone outside the lives of the people involved in the story, and even inside the lives of the people involved, it's not really anything extraordinary. it's just an interesting story.
>>80175780
>it's not really anything extraordinary. it's just an interesting story.
Its not even an accurate representation of the 70s either.
>>80175742
post timestamp when they say that
I still don't really know what happens in the big lebowski and I watched it twice
>>80175726
god i hate all these movies
>>80175826
It's a pretty accurate description of every decade.

Exactly.
>>80175139
The plot of this movie is basically two pissheads go on holiday in the Lake District for a weekend. It's a great movie though.

All good movies, except for Frances Ha. Kill yourself for even mentioning, as will I.
Cremaster Cycle 5.
okay, that's not strictly true. that one dude does climb up the right side of the stage, across the top and then down the left side again, which is pretty exciting.
>>80175705
Same as Poor Little White Boy but why watch a bunch of gay sex for the money shot?
Alternately, what are some movies where something DOES happen?
Withnail and I
>>80175990
Michael Bay movies.
>>80175780
I thought the big finale was going to be someone dying at the end by falling off the moontower. But nothing happening and everyone just driving off at the end was actually better.
>>80175861
The poor 70s cliches werent even relevant in a 70s movie.
Its a movie for people who didnt actually grow up in the 70s.
>>80175990
Independence Day

Easy Rider (sort of) but it's actually the best panorama of the 60s hippie movement that I've ever seen.

>>80175909
i love this movie, it's amazing withnail can be so charming while still being an absolute piece of shit
>>80175139
Best coming of age movie.
The movie isn't meant to be the Godfather, it's about partying.

Name 1 (one) thing that happens in Dazed and Confused that anybody will care about a month after the story. Shit, I'll make it easy for you, how about a WEEK
Patterson
It came out a few months ago and has the potential to be the best boringkino of the decade.

Someone has never had friends.

>Domhall Gleeson spends his life savings
