Please don't ruin John Wick for me. It's the only movie universe that's not all about sucking Jewish cocks.

Dishonest Filmmaking
(Tarantino, Alejandro González Iñárritu, Wes Anderson, Christopher Nolan, Alex Garland, Paul Thomas Anderson, Nicholas Refn, Tom Hooper, Tyler Perry, Rian Johnson, Alfonso Cuaron, Noah Baumbach, Andrea Arnold, David Yates, Denis Vilenueve, James Franco, Steve McQueen) are intellectually bankrupt moral whores and charlatans; their films appeal to the modern phenomenon of the 'Pretend Epic' or Pseudo Cinema, often tied to the criticism that "It was a movie that thought it was a film" they have no ideas of their own and are filmed purely to have fancy essays made about them. They obfuscate their lack of insight under a smug impenetrable irony and often contain scenes with disingenuous attempts at depth with characters spouting platitudes that the director takes VERY seriously.
This directly panders to the IMDb reddit sensibility of quote circlejerking since these hacks are masters of the fools wit, "Quipping" (Not to be confused with the marvel co-opting of the word) , it sounds smart, cool and worldly but in reality there's nothing of substance, the Revenant's attempt at spiritualism was cheap and laughable and whilst someone like Malick has considered his philosophy, Inaurritu wears his introspection on his sleeve to give his film a false sense of depth with pathetic sermonising.

THIS is Dishonest Filmmaking.

They leech the greater works that preceded them; like The Enemy being a rip off Eraserhead, but they have nothing else to say.
They act under the guise of deconstruction with surface layer obvious 'social commentary' and a quirky forgettable score praised as 'innovative'. They are all inauthentic sycophants that rely on oscar buzz and post 9/11 detachment for relevance.

These directors are hacks and will be forgotten to time.


Some notably earnest filmmakers include, but are not limited to

>Mike Leigh
>The Coen Brothers

Possibly the most egregious example I know
Do off yourself if you thought this insincere trash was worth any of the accolades it got
It's Crash 2016

I agree with this so strongly that I feel like I may have personally written at least a part of this and then forgotten about it.

Who cares they're just movies faggot lol

>>87165672
Only thing I'd call into question is the earnestness of Gaspar Noe's kinografic efforts. Armond White dislikes his work and I'm inclined to agree for the same reasons. Lots of edge and gimmickry.

>>87165452
This. This movie was garbage.
>MUH WHITE PEOPLE SUFFER TOO

Why do you call "chapter 2" dishonest, anon ? I say it failed to upgrade the game considering how good the 1st one was.

>>87165299

>>87166068
