Gosling and Stone can approximate banter but they don't really have chemistry. They play off each other well but there's no spark there. They're like brother and sister, but not in a hot way like Luke and Leia.

Hard to reduce when the story is already paper-thin. But you're right. A self-insert suicidal Hollywood screenwriter story is hardly socially relevant. Try American Madness, a whole suicidal nation crumbling under the Depression.

Hey film lovers,

So how many times have you seen Wonder Woman already? We’re fascinated, yet totally unsurprised, by the data being mined about Patty Jenkins’ superhero blockbuster. “In an era where Hollywood drops a would-be event movie every other weekend or so, Wonder Woman is qualifying as a true event movie,” wrote Scott Mendelson in Forbes, as he broke down the film’s significantly small drop between opening and second weekend. Meanwhile, some of our members went to those “controversial” (whateverrrrr) women-only screenings at the Alamo and had moving things to say.

The Mummy gets the 1-star vs 5-star treatment this month. On that note, here are 13 essential Mummy movies via Den of Geek. No doubt “mummy movies” will be a Letterboxd Showdown topic in future.

If you’re not up with the play on Letterboxd Showdown, here’s the gist: each weekend we challenge you to create a list of best / favorite / most memorable films on a particular topic. At the end of the week, we compile a list of top films based on the Letterboxd consensus gathered from all your lists.

So far we’ve covered Most Remarkable Directorial Debuts, Favorite Remakes, Wonder Women (fictional female characters) and Car Chases. This week, in honor of Team New Zealand’s win in the America’s Cup Challenger Playoffs, we’re doing Boat Life (narrative or documentary films about boats; films must be set all—or almost all—aboard or around boats; no submarines, we’ll do those later). We announce each week’s category via Twitter and Facebook, so keep an eye out there at the end of each week.

Happy watching,
The Letterboxd crew

Is the Griffith another alt-right meme like milk? Birth of a Nation is the most problematic movie I've ever watched.

People that like filmmakers like Tsai Ming-Liang, Jia Zhang-ke, and Hou Hsiao-hsien can't watch films from the 1910's because they can't associate and self-insert with people 100 years ago let alone watch pure visuals for hours in silence.

"Everything that [D.W.] Griffith made: Broken Blossoms, Intolerance, Birth of a Nation, you just name it. Everything. He's the Shakespeare of cinema. Period. Watch his films and you'll know instantly."

>Film is not the art of scholars, but of illiterates
Which is why it will never be art. Architecture and painting enthusiasts study the theory and history of their mediums academically while praising the works of the Peleponnese and Mesopotamian , but the self-described "patricians" of cinema refuse to praise anything prior to 1960.
