Who would have thought the ill-advised sequel to Easy Rider made in 2011 would be terrible?

The Harder They Come is pretty cool, there's some moments of intertextuality that are absolutely 10/10.

>>80369032
I watched The East is Red a few days ago, closest thing to Kino I've seen for a week. I personally love #Horror as well.

>>80369566
there's an Easy Rider 2?

>tfw you discover synt is also a meme speaker who uses 'kino'
>and also subscribes to vulgautism by liking some garbage horror flick ironically
Guess the rumors were true

>>80369801
Yeah, it's got a very strange production history. Basically old man lawyer wants to fund vanity project Easy Rider movie/quasi-remake starring himself. Sues successfully to get the rights somehow and proceeds to make a very weird tribute film that also misses the point of the original entirely.

While the acting is a bit ropey it's actually shot surprisingly decently bar a few poorly lit interiors. The script and pacing is diabolical though and ultimately it's just a boring made-for-tv tier family melodrama with motorbikes.

>>80369833
I was responding using the other anon's vernacular, that said I will admit I have no problem with the term. Why get so hung up about it?

Also #Horror is very good, don't believe the memes. And Tara Subkoff isn't VA, stop using that term to describe anything you don't like.

>Amaranth has psychic-like abilities
>Miranna controls france with simple but decent taste
>Fabs lives in castles & controls /lbg/ from behind the scenes
>dropout_bear is a direct descendant of the royal bloodline of classical Americana
>Smoothhands will bankroll the first cities on Mars (Embyhold will be be the first city)
>m_obvs owns 99% of original content you see here on /lbg/
>next big movement you see on /tv/ will likely have originated from here
>Most users are said to have 215+ IQ, such intelligence on Earth has only existed deep in Tibetan monasteries & Area 51
>Ancient Indian scriptures tell of an army angels who will descend upon /tv/ and will bring an era of taste and unprecedented philosophical progress with them
>They own film websites around the world
>You likely have slept's penis inside you right now
>Bel is in regular communication with the patron Saints of film, Theo Angelopoulos and Gregory Markopoulos, forwarding the word of Bresson to Mel Gibson. Who do you think set up the meeting between Chazelle & the Hollywood high command (First meeting between the two organizations in over 1000 years) and arranged the Hollywood's leader’s first trip to Antarctica in history literally a few days later to the film bunker in Wilkes land?
>Vulva created his own language and it took over in under a week
>other websites entrust their taste reserves with the general. There’s no taste on imdb, only letterboxd & mubi
>some have seen more than 3k films, as shown by humans' quantifiable runes currently accepted by our society
>In reality, many timeless beings existing in all points of time and space from the big bang to the end of the universe travel across the infinite multiverse seeking their knowledge. We don’t know their ultimate plans yet. We hope they’re benevolent beings.

I have to say that I love the immediate impact that imdb shutting down is having on the new reviews popping up.

Anaylizing and understanding films is sure a lot harder when you don't have message boards to steal from.

Ex. Cache

>"In 1953, Truffaut wrote an essay for Cahiers entitled "A Certain Tendency of the French Cinema", in which he virulently denounced this tradition of adapting safe literary works, and filming them in the studio in an old fashioned and unimaginative way. This style of cinema wasn’t visual enough, Truffaut argued, and relied too much on the screenwriter. He and the others labelled it ‘cinema de papa’, and compared it unfavourably with the work of film-makers from elsewhere in the world"

13 years later he makes an adaption of Fahrenheit 451. What did he mean by this?

It's fun how the old guard is giving up and the profiles that are just joke reviews are gaining ridiculous amounts of traction.

Like arielrocks, adrianbalboa, Lucy

The plague is spreading.

>>80380439
Gotta keep that rating tracker even ya know?

>>80380885
Truffaut's adaptation was politically relevant, relied more on the visuals rather than the script, and Julie Christie plays two roles which it's pretty unique.

>>80380439
Only retards who follow the "mathematical distribution" meme. Also I've seen some people withholding a rating on good films so it doesn't change their scale. It's pathetic to say the least.

>>80367620
Dishonest film buffs General

>>80381183
So some people just treat watching films as a video game and need to have the highest score on their profile.

>>80381277
It's the idea that "If all films are good then none of them are" so some use the ratings VERY strictly.

It's as retarded as that "New Competence" theory.

Just saw Lost River. It was pretty much if Malick had a dark side influenced by Refn and Lynch. I ran into Refn and he remembered me from last year. He never watched Mindless, but asked how my career was going. I told him I'm shooting a feature next year and he wished me best of luck, so that was pretty cool.
