Hello /tv/, I've always played video games and never really watched movies. Now that I'm older I realize video games are a shit tier manchild hobby.

I would like your opinions on essential movies that everyone should watch. I've never seen anything except for mainstream superhero movies in the past 10 years. Which means I've never seen Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, etc. The last movie I saw was Reservoir Dog.

Last Year At Marienbad

Playing vidya, watching a flick and posting on 4chan simultaneously is the ultimate form of entertainment.

Start with classics/modern classics that are also considered accessible.
Check out the films by kubrick, spielberg,
lynch, paul thomas anderson, hitchcock, fincher, the coen brothers, Tarantino, etc. Basically entry level directors that also happen to make mostly good films. Definitely recommend you check out lotr as well

>tarantino movies are garbage
kek

Just start watching the imdb top 250. around 150 of the movies there are entry-level classics that will give you a nice foundation and you'll see what you live and explore further.

Serious question OP, what made you stop playing vidya? I've honestly been playing less and less over the years myself.
>>
>>85594791
I guess just because I've grown out of it. Since I was a kid it was pretty much my only escape (didn't have many friends), but now that I have matured and made relationships, including a wife and kids, I can't find a reason to play.

This and when everyone around me talks about movies I always spill spaghetti because I'm uneducated in film.

Skip popular movies, they're absolutely unentertaining, go for the B-films instead. They're immensely entertaining in their own schlocky a e s t h e t i c.

Start with Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow, then the Roger Corman and Hammer Horror collections, then kaiju films, then low-budget horror. That's good shit right there: all the thrills and chills of cinema, but without the pretentious drivel Hollywood throws in to try to nab Oscars and Academy Awards.
>>
>>85594267
Movies are a manchild hobby too. Read a book.
>>
just watch whatever you want mate, how hard it could be?
you already missed the window to watch the same list every male needs to watch(fight club, pulp fiction, trainspotting) so just search for stuff you find interesting.You can go to imdb top 100 and pick 10 movies, and then branch out.
>>
>>85594267
>Now that I'm older I realize video games are a shit tier manchild hobby.
"Now that I'm older I've started repeating epic 4chan memes." So you're, what, 14 years old?
>>
>>85594893
>grown out of it
I think it's probably more that most of the big games released these days are trash. It's similar with movies but lower budget movies are generally better than lower budget/indie games. Partially I think because movies are easier to make than games. I actually don't play video games much recently because of this too.
>>
>>85595153
Reading books is a manchild hobby too. Compose music.
>>
>>85594424
Holy shit your taste is bad. And you are trying way too hard on that list.
You must be one weirdo to love some of those movies you listed.

They mostly talk about stuff like I said, Star Wars, LOTR, maybe Game of Thrones, and other stuff thrown in.

>>85595310
Yeah, games these days are too long. I remember back on PS1 when I would get so excited to explore in Tomb Raider. But now games are just tiring.
>>

>I guess just because I've grown out of it.
You can lose interest in video games. You can't grow out of them.

1. Find an actor you like
2. Watch all their movies
3. Find another actor you like in the movies you watch
4. Repeat steps 2-3

I enjoyed it but I get where you're coming from. Now that I look at it, it's definitely a weak movie compared to the others listed.

You're a manchild either way. Go out and create something, or at least get a real job.

Music for me is just a background noise, I don't really have a passion for it.
If you like music so much that you want to make it yourself, then go for it. Slowly and surely tinkering and crafting is the true path to wisdom.
