I think /tv/ hates film festivals cause they're poor and can't torrent those films. I tried to start a thread about my city's upcoming festival but nobody was interested. Will have to see if Sweet Country is playing at MIFF.

Why are they doing this, why are they becoming screenwriters for mediocre directors instead of directing their scripts themselves? Are they tired of shooting their own films now?

>I solely depend on you for movie news
What? Have you actually seen what this board is like?

I know it's disappointing to not have somebody to discuss it with, but you should know better. I usually just keep up with the festival stuff by myself. /tv/ only becomes patrician with cannes like >>85624362 said, this year I was scared it wasn't going to happen because every thread leading up to the festival was derailed by plebs. Thankfully it became pretty enjoyable. This was my first year I actually kept up with the festival every day enough to know all the films in the competition. Always the most fun time on /tv/ for me.

Last year there was also a thread for the LAFCA and the Gotham Indie Awards, both of which were pretty comfy, but the NYFF and TIFF, for example, there was nothing. Even Sundance talks this year were few and far between. I think it just depends on if OP provides enough details and links, and happens to post at the time of day that other anons that could be interested follow suit. It's always better if there's a livestream or something for anons to watch, whether it's a festival like Cannes or an awards show.

Only ones I'm really excited to hear about are Koreeda's The Third Murder and Downsizing, because I loved both of their previous films. Hope Lean on Pete and Three Billboards are both good. Obviously curious how the reception for mother, Shape of Water, and Suburbicon will be, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're all mixed.

don't bully /tv/

>>85623142
To be fair, I am more curious about film festivals as they show films... looks like mostly what was expected. Should help sort out quality

There's not enough people here that actually care about industry shit for the threads to ever go anywhere. You have to approach it like it's explainlikeImfive.

You should also have been a faggot and spaced out the list into multiple bumps so you could get out of the shitswamp better and not have a frigging wall of text that triggers my autism.

Being on/tv/ is like panning for gold. You're just looking for the tiny specks of insight you don't really get anywhere else amid the torrent of watery opinion.

Garfield is a patriot now and I respect him. He also looked just like my nigga Desmond Doss.

That video makes me want to get down on my knees and suck his dick. Literally everything he said was either charismatic, charming, or insightful.

>both candidates are shit, but one will win which sucks
True
>immigrants built our country and they die for us in war, which is better than whites dying in war
True
>It is a volatile political climate
True

Mel fucking gets it. And thats why he was able to make a good movie in Hacksaw. He knows how to play the american heart strings and I loved every minute of it.

Thanks for your opinion, Ramirez.

They can't film everything they write and have a lot of unproduced screenplays lying around, which they may think aren't good enough for themselves but that others are happy to buy the rights for. I think they're just having fun doing projects with friends or people they like, they also like to publish short stories sometimes.

De nada. I know I sure as fuck aint picking strawberries for a living. But someone has to.
