The mission of /lbg/ is to promote the intelligent discussion of film as art by providing members with opportunities for intellectual discussion, by recognizing patrician taste through examinations and by calling out embryos as they appear.

WHAT'S UP FAGS
>>81812119
What would you do to fix it, if you were in a position to do so?
>>81812196
bigger focus on quality of releases
>>81812419
Yeah...they do have a lot of scene rips of HD content on there. I should know, I uploaded some of it myself!
>>81812119
the site and moderation is meh but the community is great
>>81812774
wonderful community for sure
it's just a shame it seems to be a community of people who watch primarily on their laptops/plain just don't care
which considering the 'archivist' kind of attitude there seems weird to me
>>81812846
a lot of #rare stuff can only be found in shit quality and I guess ppl are used to it now
>>81812927
but almost every DVD/vhsrip on there will have come from a better source, and then compressed before uploading
anything big dies really quickly
it's bad
>tfw you've seen Preminger's The 13th Letter on 35mm while everyone else has to settle for a low-quality TVRip
>>81813008
I've kept 95% of my uploads seeding, regardless of size and cross-seed many more large files I didn't upload. Also, bigger !=better, necessarily. A VHSRip or DVDRip can look better than the source because of the filters applied. That's the reason I do rips from those sources.
>>81813023
this is a wonderful feel
>>81813084
not many do though. most DVDrs die very quickly. Didn't consider the point about filters, idk much about them but sounds reasonable, I'd still wager most DVDrips on the site look worse than the untouched
Why did none of you lads tell me Lost Highway was pure kino?
Should i go to a screening of Dancer with q+a with the ballet guy, or should I go to A Blonde in Love on 35mm instead
>>81813694
yes

Beyond the Valley of the Dolls is a masterpiece!!!FACT!!!
>>81814854
who are you going to vote for
>>81815574
I'll look at the vote share of my constituency and see who I should vote for in order to shake up whatever party is in the lead if like minded people will do the same thing, if not i'll just vote ukip as per usual.
I live in L O N D O N so my vote is cancelled out instantly by all the retards that vote labour/conservative.
We might see a lib-dem and labour coalition as that's their only chance of fighting off the conservative menace really but I don't think either of those parties current voterbase could amalgamate properly nor could the politicians in said parties especially as both parties lack a good figurehead.
We could actually see labour split up and we'd get ANOTHER centrist party lead by some spicy minority like chuka umana who ends up becoming basically alt-left aka labour 2.0 - still left leaning centrist edition which would be fun but then I have no idea who the opposition party would be so I dunno how likely that outcome is
>tl;dr - I'll just vote ukip
Miami vice is pretty good but i don't see why so many people think it's some kind of hidden 10/10 masterpiece. The soundtrack ruined a couple scenes in the film also, the songs are surprisingly bad and unfitting.
I had forgotten how great the ending of public enemies is. Probably one of the best sequences mann has done.
>>81813309

>>81815818
It's just an approved meme for patricians you retard, like how people 'into' music can listen to whatever pop album is trending and proclaim it as a masterpiece for a year or two until some other qt girl takes over

>>81815818
which cut did you see? Usually people strongly prefer one of them, I think generally the theatrical is more acclaimed
>>81816141
I think people in London that vote for either labour or conservative are retards, not the party itself. I think the tory party is just basically the same as labour, except they lean mildly more to the right.
Ukip is the only true conservative party in the UK despite being absolute shit so it's my only choice unless, like I said I want to shake up my own constituency for laffs but I doubt anyone else will do so what's the point.
>>81816207
unrated directors cut. I'll see if i like it more when i watch the theatrical.
https://letterboxd.com/machill54/
>>81816310
DC has that cheesy In the Air Tonight cover playing over the fire fight.
What the fuck was Mann thinking at that moment
How is the new Ali cut?
>>81816261
why is it shit? here in Sweden the Sweden Democrats are kind of similar to ukip on immigration but they're too small/new of a party to fill all the representative chairs lol
>>81816410
ukip are just a fucking mess in every way imaginable, tons of infighting, scandals, they don't go far enough on their views to attract real right wing people but they go just far enough to alienate everyone else, their brand is shit and unaesthetic etc
They lost a byelection in an area that voted like 80%+ for brexit. That's how shit they are.
UK is doomed to a thousand year tory reich
>>81816358
>How is the new Ali cut?
It's the best cut of the film I've seen. Fixes up some of the pacing problems in the middle, after Ali is barred from boxing. So the new cut moves better. I regret not seeing this in theatres.
>>81815818
>I had forgotten how great the ending of public enemies is. Probably one of the best sequences mann has done.
Yes, this. Very moving and affecting. The love story in this is as good as the one in Miami Vice, IMO.
The ending of Beyond the Valley was a bit of a cop out. It just went screwball.

>>81824164
Discreet Charm had nice stand alone scenes and had a solid surreal concept but i just didnt really like it for some reason. Probably due to the abundance of dream sequences. Harlan County was a nice look into coal culture in the US. Wish there was more scenes of actual shots in the coal mines. LA Confidential was too long and contrived. Everything felt forced especially the ending. Really good acting is the only reason this movie was decent. No idea why this film is held in such high regard. Things speaks for itself.

Too early to tell but at this point I think I'll wait till the Blu Ray rip comes out. Nothing from the trailer grabbed my attention.
>>81815449
I was surprised by how good it is, no one edits like Russ Meyer, so that's a plus, characters motivations are well explained, scenes are memorable, and the nonsensical plot it's spot on.
He did all that with no budget and the worst actors you can possible get.

Shocking!
https://letterboxd.com/Arokz/
Galaxy Quest [1999]
It's not such a good love story to Star Trek as I remembered it being, but a pretty standard genre comedy. Still, it's better then most if that makes sense. Not a spoof really. The retarded way aliens talk will always be funny. Tim Allen sucks like always, being the unlikable person he is. Sigourney Weaver is surprisingly hot, more so than when she was young. Alan Rickman and Sam Rockwell are great.
John Wick: Chapter 2 [2017]
Liked the first one as much as the next redditor normie, but this one sucks heavily even though it shouldn't, because all the element are here. It's probably due to the fact that it's really far too long. As we all know, no action movie should go past 90 minutes, and this one is two hours. Features world's first automotive fistfight. Keanu Reeves is Keanu Reeves, Laurence Fishburne once again cements his position as the worst actor of all time. Ruby Rose can't speak and is not beaten severely enough. And I don't mean that she should be because I don't like her, but because I do.
Logan [2017]
I will always have a soft spot for this furry daddy in my heart. I was really pleasantly surprised considering how shitty, generic and boring are Marvel films for the last few years, and how mediocre the previous two Wolverine movies were (I still liked them). But this was really gritty, adult stuff, but not in a forced way. it was nice to see Patrick Stewart again. Dafne Keen is not hot enough unfortunately, even though they probably did that on purpose, because in today's shitty world kids can't be attractive supposedly. Might've been a little shorter, but I didn't actually mind the length that much.
>>81819450
Me personally I loved kong
Power Rangers [2017]
Unfortunately not known as "Krispy Kreme Power Rangers". It's really as fun as it can be while conforming to standards of contemporary movies like this. I expected the first part where we get to know them and the setting to be fun. But then, at least that's what I expected, it would turn to boring, bland action movie. But it didn't, the "first part" is almost the whole movie, and once the fighting starts it's still fun. Elizabeth Banks is a goddess, the performance she put on alone makes the movie worth seeing. Krispy Kreme donut tasting will I'm sure forever remain as one of the greatest movie scenes of all time. The main and almost the only problem is that all the rangers are pretty bland and boring kids, except for Naomi Scott. The Asian guy is exceptionally awful, it's really hard to suffer through the scenes which showcase his KRAZIness. Different, more charistmatic and likable kids would make this movie great. But it's still very good.
Arcade [1993]
Worthless shit from the first second to the last, with not a single redeeming quality. Expected too much obviously, don't know why. Do not watch, I don't really believe anyone would like this, because there's nothing to like.

The Other Side of Hope is pretty decent and transparent, but a bit plain. Kaurismaki seems to be a bit on the simplistic side in his portrayal of refugees, specially seeing how he managed other equivalent themes, such as alienation in The Match Factory Girl.

I just saw a double bill with Suspiria and Opera and a talk from Argento. Argento started talking about how he would make his daughter do nude scenes, and when he told that he would make her do such weird things and would film her for so long that she started crying he was laughing his ass off.

>>81857711
Eh he mainly spoke about his career. He barely speaks English and edits his movies with an Italian dub (probably why the performances are so shit), and it took him quite long to phrase answers, even with the interpreter present, so he basically only talked about his career until 1975 before time ran out. He told comfy Sergio Leone (did everything with gestures) and Keith Emerson (would ride a motorcycle indoors) stories. He said he really wants to and is going to make a new film called The Sandman and that Iggy Pop will play the villain.
