Some Asian Directors worth checking out:

Wong Kar-Wai
Yasujiro Ozu
Akira Kurosawa
Kenji Mizoguchi
Edward Yang
Hou Hsiao-hsien
Satyajit Ray
Apichatpong Weerasethakul

>>81091672
>Wong Kar-Wai

I'm just grabbing his films now. I saw 2046 a few years ago and it blew me away, had no idea >>81089856 this was him, or Chungking Express..

OP here, desu I just thought oldboy would be the most easily recognised here. I even renamed the png so the plebs would recognise. There were 2 asian threads on monday and the one with the oldboy pic got most replies. So there..

I need some ideas for movies, dude. The latest "Blockbusters" have been below-par imo, especially in Korea. And desu I've ran out of ideas, time to ask /tv/.

hirokazu koreeda doesn't do anything abstract, he just makes damn good drama films where family is a huge running theme. i recommend watching I Wish, that's my favourite of his films. you'll feel happy after you watch it.

WKW has made 2 good films (chunking and in the mood for love) whereas Tsai's entire filmog is incredible.
Compare any movie tsai has made to either of those films and tsai's film will come out on top

Both literally the same movie, same main actor, but 2046 has a "time-travel" theme.

>>81093860
If you turn off your brain one too many times, it won't turn back on. It's not like they're incomprehensible for people that aren't geniuses or anything. They're just movies, mate. Also, when some symbolism or stuff goes over your head you can also save your questions for the next "asian cinema general" thread on /tv/ and ask them.

>>81093961
Fallen Angels is like Chungking Express, actually, one of the stories was supposed to be fit into it originally. The story with Takeshi Kaneshiro in Fallen Angels is absolutely amazing.

kek people that only like The Hole are absolute plebs, thanks for confirming this. Weird how the only film of his that became critically acclaimed in the west along with Stray Dogs is the one you think is good right? God forbid you break out from the echo chamber and form your own more accurate opinion. It's an incredible film for sure but you have to be retarded if you don't think Rebels, Vive L'amor, I don't want to sleep alone and Goodbye Dragon Inn aren't better than Chunking Express and In The Mood For Love.

If you want something different than the usual crime drama/thrillers.
Tries a bit too hard to be epic though, and the final battle never "ends". It keeps building momentum and you think THIS the final "moment", but then it happens again and again until you're just waiting for it to be over.

>>81094323
You're so up your own asshole, you could probably smell your farts days before you pass them. Rebels is nice but far from amazing and trying to imply Goodbye Dragon Inn is on the level of the WKW movies you mentioned is pretentious as fuck. And wrong. It's funny, you start off by getting mad because Tsai isn't as popular as WKW and then sperg out about how popular=bad.

>>81094500

What's your top 10 movies, anon?

>>81094500
I wasn't mad he wasn't as popular I was confused as to why he wasn't when he's clearly superior. It's kinda like how your mum apparently loves you more than your pet cat when the cat is clearly more intelligent and better looking than you. To bring popularity into the argument when it wasn't part of it in the first place just shows that you aren't at all one who should hold an opinion on anything that requires an IQ higher than the number of fingers you have.

Learn to read, learn to think critically, learn to think outside the box and above all learn to appreciate true cinema then come back to this thread so I can tell you to watch more Tsai movies after you've washed the soy sauce imbued cum out of your mouth that WKW deposits in your mouth every night.

They're the most accessible arthouse asian films that don't require you to know much about the medium or about asia to understand. Incidentially that's also why people have a boner for them but they're still pretty decent films.

A bit too autistis for it's own good at times and with stupid action scenes that should've been cut entirely as they don't bring anything except unintentional comedy.

>>81095011
Most of his movies have some hints of humor in them, but I agree that he never knew how to direct a good action scene. It got really annoying in Outrage Beyond where 70% of the scenes in the movie is a group of people walk into the set and shoot everyone with no resistance.

Not the plebs you're replying to. Anyone deluding themselves that WKW is on Tsai's level is a pleb. Kar Wai is all about visuals and atmosphere, which Tsai had down from his first film, Kaw Wai never was able to break past the surface.

Don't get me wrong, I like both, but Kar Wai is about watching a tropey, beautifully shot and composed story you can enjoy, Tsai is an investment that requires another level of attention.

Also Goodbye Dragon Inn is Tsai's only weak film for me. Repeats and recasts his iconic scenes but offers little else. I imagine those that enjoy it didn't watch Tsai chronologically. The River is his best, the culmination of everything coming together and working perfectly.

No joke, the only way to watch Tsai is chronologically. He uses the same actors and weaves a life out for them that grow through each film. You can literally see his style grow as his actors do. He's also self-referential, you'll see a point where he plays with expectations he's established in multiple other films, tons of small things like that.

I'm doing my third rewatch of him [spoilers]with my gf this time[/spoilers] and still catching new nuances.

(In that same note I'd say WKW too, being that 2046 is the endcap of his love trilogy, you're missing a lot not having some of that extra context, but he's not that hard of a director to enjoy without)

>>81090052
WKW is brought up a lot obviously by people discovering his movies for the first time, but he really is probably the most important figure in film for the 21st century, aside from David Lynch.
He focuses on the mundanity and ennui of modern-life, and I think the role which the digital age has on us, though this is never explicitly mentioned in his movies. But its the same thing, really; especially with 2046, his characters are people lost in history, the relationships they quickly form and desire to cling to, in a world thats overrun by the contempt of others and which they defy in tiny acts of beauty. This is why Chung King Express is so fun and light-hearted, but is spun around an emotional center much heavier and realer than most other movies which try to get that melancholy reaction from the audience.
He's really a master at what he does, and will probably go down as one of film's greats.

>>81089856
I watched this immediately after I broke up with my ex-girlfriend over her having an emotional affair. It's a testament to the quality of the film that I was completely immersed in it to the point that I didn't break down at all.
The color and production design are absolutely amazing, but the soundtrack deserves its due as well - especially the central leitmotif. It's impressive how artfully economical the entire film is; I feel like I can count the locations and tracks on one hand, but it feels so full.

I'm surprised by the number of people not knowing WKW's work, though.

>You will never have time to watch The Human Condition

Seijun Suzuki is worth watching for sure. His films are getting attention again because he passed away this February.

I've only seen Branded to Kill, which is typically known as his seminal cult film, but reading about his methodology it's difficult to not want to go out and watch everything he's done.

He repeatedly said he considered film to be A.) work B.) both boring and fun and C.) a limited medium so he did absolutely insane things in order to entertain himself and make making B movies for the studios he worked under interesting. Personally, I think his work is very alluring because it's inherently more appealing to a Western sensibility. With more formal filmmakers like Ozu and Kurosawa, some of what they're working with is lost in translation or doesn't resonate as strongly.

I don't understand why Tokyo Story is so revered

I mean, I definitely enjoyed it, but it felt like yet another meditation on the balance between giri and ninjo in modernizing Japan.
