It's essentially a 4th wall break

But subtle, and not faggoty.

>>85076575
No it isn't

>>85076575
Totally wrong.

>>85076614
>>85076647

in defense of the guy, I don't think he's totally wrong. it's clearly a rhetorical device to show that a film is aware of itself as a film.

still need to know what this kind of shot is called though.

>>85076877
no. The shot doesn't exist to acknowledge the film's existence, it's designed to reinforce the 4th wall; to communicate to the viewer that the wall exists, which should heighten the suspension of disbelief and hopefully immerse you further in the work of fiction.

A character looking into or past the camera is does not imply that at all

It seems impossible for you to tell that, what made you come that conclusion anyway?

i like this explanation

>>85076968
what does it imply?

>>85077044
you're missing the point. with respect to the type of shot, i'm just referring to shots where the camera films a stationary object or actor- often it takes the form of the actor looking at the camera or slightly askew.

pretentious cuck shit

>>85077286
fuck off

>>85076524
that twelve year old is so fucking hot it's distracting.

>I went to film school the thread: the movie

>>85077063
It implies they're looking at something beyond the cameras field of view, or at a characters gaze represented by the cameras gaze. If the shot actually addresses the audience in direct way, it could be considered fourth wall breaking.

>>85077685
i'm not sure if you're the guy who originally said it's fourth wall breaking, but no one else has provided a better explanation.

but the question remains: does this shot have a name?

>>85076524
Hipster Angle

it's literally just symmetry that he uses and places the character along the line of symmetry as that now becomes a focal point

Everybody in this thread needs to fucking kill themselves

It's just one point perspective

Anyone else would have loved to go through an adventure like that? I forgot to be jaded while watching this movie.

They actually were together in the sequel.
