Hi! I'm college student watching as many movies as possible while still trying to graduate. My faves are PTA, Scorsese and Tarantino. But since I'm movie hoe™ I'll basically watch anything. My reviews are usually under a sentence long so u won't feel like your wasting time reading them!

Change the QotT to "Why do you watch movies for directors or place emphasis on directors over editors, screenwriters, actors, producers, or cinematographers?"

A good movie is not just a director. Filmmaking is collaborative.

why does the op only ever quote mackhill posts?

not true

for example, dog star man is one of the greatest films ever made and it is solely the creation of one person

Stanley Brakhage > Stanley Kubrick

>>80672040
brakhage is a bad meme

>>80672106
this reply is a bad meme

>>80672131
it's not

one of my film professors studied under him and even though she pretended to like his work she couldn't defend it or expound upon it in any way

he's the film equivalent of throwing shit at a wall

i think of Brakhage more as a painter than a filmmaker desu, since i thoroughly enjoy his painted and collage films (e.g., "Mothlight") but don't have much of a reaction to his "actual" films (excepting "The Act of Seeing With One's Own Eyes" which honestly helped me come to further understand my own mortality)

You realize why capeshit is called capeshit, right?

It's because it's superheroes, they're not realistic. They can't die and they have deus ex machine to magically save the day.

That's why it's a horrible comparison to say capeshit is the modern western. Westerns dealt with real social and political issues on a base level, rural developing civilization. Take for example, The Big Country, which is an allegory for the Cold War.

But at the root, what truly separates capeshit from legitimate cinema is not writing. It's the core concept. Superheroes aren't real, they are anti-cinema. Cinema is a reflection of reality, it exposes it and enlightens us about it. That's why the Big Country was shown at the White House and capeshit never will be.

I don't have a damn profile. I just use the site to observe all of you and collect data. Then come here to expose you when you carry on ignorantly, which is often.

>>80688803
you don't deserve it

The documentary is the pure cinema. I see very few documentaries in most people's profiles.

>>80689050
Please seek help.

>>80688803
I know this is an archive post but that filename. How are you on 4chan since 2009 and not be already invited?

>>80689112
no one wants to make documentaries and so no one wants to watch them to learn from

>>80689112
is this something that sounded intelligent in your head? Documentaries are closer to longform journalism than any other medium.

>>80689143
>no one wants to make documentaries
Why not? They are the purest form of cinema.

>>80689050
I'd advice you reread the op.
It's my opinion that if someone posting itt doesn't have an account, they should be ignored. If you don't want to be part of the community then don't, dummy.

>>80689223
You don't get as much Oscarz for documentaries.

>>80689197
Documentaries are the closest to reflecting reality, not fairy tales.

>>80689267
Cameraperson got a Criterion release, but Moonlight didn't.

>le false equivalency between cinema and reality meme

>>80689363
The documentary is the medium put to its fullest potential of exposing reality and finding truth.

Dear that one faggot,

If you stress realism so much why do you like all these old hollywood movies? They aren't very realistic at all.
Shouldn't you be championing italian neo realism, cinema verite, dogma 95, mumblecore, styles of filmmaking of that nature instead?

Sincerely,
a confused anon

>>80689425
No other medium can document reality as closely as film.

>>80689510
reality and """""""""""""reality""""""""""""" are two different things

how do you capture the reality of a persons emotional state or psyche? Music is arguably better at that, and that is stuff that is very real

art should channel intuition, not information

You don't know anything about realism. DW Griffith was one of the earliest pioneers of realism in filmmaking.

My favorite thing about arguing with this faggot is that I don't need to try that hard.
Just reply to him enough and he'll gradually dismantle his own argument.

>>80689910
How did I dismantle my argument? I'm just stating there are hundreds of films from the 10's, 20's, and 30's missing from people's catalogs and the one's that are catalogued are the WRONG ones. Ones that employ frenetic editing and hectic camerawork, not ones with subtle suggestive techniques. There are also countless documentaries ignored. Not one list have I seen Grass: A Nation's Battle for Life.

>>80689826
Cinema is not solely about entertainment. It's about exposing life. Life can be entertaining and it can be boring. Cinema should reflect life in all its qualities.

>>80690106
You've contradicted yourself enough without elaborating on any of your points to where I can't take anything you say seriously.

>>80690206
Not once did I contradict myself. Show me. I'm smarter than every single one of you. And I will always be here to expose you.

>"I'm here to expose you" *tips fedora*
>exposes himself
lmaoing rn

>>80684949
Yeah it's great, would definitely recommend it.

>>80690256
It sounds like you don't have any thoughts of your own. You're just regurgitating whatever think pieces you've thought were interesting. It's really apparent how limited your knowledge is.
This is like the first thing they teach you school.

>>80690335
Watch more documentaries. Then maybe you'll learn something. You'll never be as smart as me. But maybe just maybe you'll learn something.

>>80690519
>You're just regurgitating whatever think pieces you've thought were interesting
No, I'm telling you what pure-direct cinema is. What every single one of you watches is bullshit.

>>80690640
post a pic of ur hand I want a good laff today lad

>everyone i see using "kino" on letterboxd also happens to be a pretentious child with awful taste
really makes you think.

>[Brian L. Frye comparing Robert Gardner's Forest of Bliss to Ken Burns’s The Civil War] Gardner didn’t just make a better film than Burns; he made an entirely different kind of film. How does Gibbon’s history of the Roman Empire differ from a textbook on the same subject? The former is a great work of art, the latter the literary equivalent of library paste. Irrespective of Burns’ merits as a historian (which I am unqualified to evaluate), he does not make films but illustrations. Gardner, however, is an artist, and one of the finest sort.
>[He] started making films three decades or more ago, when documentaries were considered more than rhetorical bludgeons and instructional tools for the uncurious and semi-literate.

Not a Kon fan? Shame, great animation. Or is animation not "cinema" because you're too close minded to consider something that isn't traditional to be film?

You're simply not ready for Inarritu friend. you're not picking up on the subtle sociological themes & masterfully-executed yet intentionally-mistransmitted messages that always seem to fly right over lesser minds undetected. Inarritu is eternally poignant, forever relevant, steeped in an understanding of the world and exuding it unto others like a blessing from heaven. an important thinker. one of the best we got.
