It's why posting soundless webms is retarded. This board needs sound webms.

>>87343578
This is one easy indicator to find women who have had an abortion. This film triggers the shit out of them.

Movie was average.

I think "Hell or High Water', which was released in the same year was infinitely better. HoHW used a simple trope, a pair robbing banks, to get back at "the man", but it was infinitely more captivating than "Arrival" (which had aliens, time travel, and wtf knows what else).

>>87344643

Go back to Letterboxd General.

I honestly fucking hated it. The "twist" was dumb, and the rest of the film was aggressively irritating. Like getting a two hour lecture from a redditor pseud, then he spits directly in your mouth for some reason.

>>87343664

The movie does not even try to be good at those areas in my opinion.

>>87343578
Not even Villeneuve's best movie.

>>87343578
First half of the movie - great.
Second half - extremely disapointing and a let down.

>>87343726
>>87344836

>>87345062
If you use the word "reddit" when you are describing something, you have no fucking idea what your talking about

>>87343578
It was good, but the best of the last ten years? Really?
Better than No Country for Old Men? Better than The Hunt? Le Grande Bellezza? The Master? Even other Villeneuve films like Sicario or Enemy are better.

>>87344417

FUCKING COHERENCE.It's not even a good movie but when you think about the concept (they explained everything so even retards understand) and the idea of the self it becomes scary as shit.

>>87345226
It's a pretty good line, especially considering the context of the narrative.

>>87343578
That would be Whiplash my dude
Arrival is close though

>>87345206
Pretty much every half-decent show or film in recent memory.
Setting the scene is easy, writing a convincing ending that is not another cliffhanger is hard.

>>87345596
See >>87343609

>>87345621
This applies to pretty much everything in general. I hate endings. They never satisfy me. I want things to keep going forever and ever, but I know things don't work that way. It is definitely worse in some things than in others though.

>>87345621
How is the ending a cliffhanger?

>>87345671
I believe his point is that it's hard to write a good ending that isn't a cliffhanger ending. Hence why Arrival's ending, which is not a cliffhanger ending, is not a good ending (in his opinion).

Arrival is part of a recent series of movies I'd describe as Dunning-Kruger Sci-Fi. Along with Interstellar and to a somewhat lesser extent The Martian, they perfectly play to the crowd that fancies themselves as (and, to be fair, may truly be) smarter than average audiences but are not as smart as genuinely "smart people." They are movies designed to make the audience feel smart by introducing complicated and heady concepts, and then holding the viewer's hand the entire way through until there is next to nothing to be left up to interpretation.

If you didn't already know the twist in Arrival by the time she was in the milky section of the ship with the aliens AT LEAST, you perfectly fit the audience I am talking about.

There is no reward for being smart while viewing these movies because everything is eventually spelled out in big fridge magnet letters. Any clever idea is made so transparent that even the most simple in the audience will get it. It also removes any reward for rewatching or trying to figure out what you just saw.

Granted, there is a difference between Arrival and Interstellar. I think where Interstellar was pretending to have a brain it actually didn't have, Arrival has a brain that it is refusing to let the audience use.

Completely disappointing movie.

>so that just happened

>>87345783
Whenever I play Raynor in Heroes of the Storm he has this line where after he respawns he says "Well... that just happened." and it always makes me think of this copypasta. I think Tracer has it too.

>>87345783
kys

>>87345783
This stale pasta is so trash, it doesn’t even talk about Villeneuve or a single point about the film, just the overpraising autists.

It's like saying Fight Club is a bad film just because some normies think the film has the meaning of life itself in it.
And the saddest part is that you saved and then copypasted it probably hundred times already thinking that it's saying something "smart".

>>87345845
Feels like there's a boring-ass copypasta for every critically acclaimed movie lately. La La Land has one, Moonlight has one, Logan has one... there's probably more.

>>87345916
Do you happen to have the one for Moonlight? I liked that movie a lot as well. I feel I missed a huge amount of shit posting since I watched it semi recently and not at release or around the time it received the award.

>>87343578
why would an alien suffer from human amnesia? this movie made no sense.

>>87346190
I actually cannot remember seeing one for Moonlight now that I think about it, so I may have been mistaken, sorry. Maybe there is one but nobody's been autistic enough to keep posting it like they have for the other movies so I haven't seen it.

I have, however, recently been working on forcing a positive copypasta about the movie, so here's that in case you're interested.

Arrival is a good film for finding true autists on /tv/.

So much of the film requires empathy and being able to comprehend complex emotions to understand the characters actions. Autists lack the ability to do either of these things so they just sperg out and hate the film.

>>87343664

What was the one thing humanity had to do to get the FTL tech? Build individual nations? No? What then?

>>87347466
What the fuck does that have to do with this film?

>nolan 2.0
>Good
Villenueve is a pale imitation of much better directors. full stop. He's just someone who like movies so much he decided to go for it as a director, but he can't actually make anything truly interesting/unique/smart. Literally Nolan 2.0. He's not as bad as Inarritu or McQueen, though.

>>87347466
Because different countries working together is such a bad thing.

"Globalism is bad" is such a dumb meme.

>>87345783
well described, and hence, Nolan 2.0, or perhaps 1.5

>>87347507

Villeneuve is closer to Fincher than to Nolan in terms of the execution.

>why yes, i do live in a rich white neighborhood, how did you know?

Yeah but what does building faster than light tech have anything to do with the film?

>>87347695
modern international neoliberal economic policies and financial systems are just one form of the potential space of "globalism" i.e. international co-operation on a policy level

proving the existing policy framework is a failure isn't evidence of international co-operation being a failed premise

Did you even watch the film or are you just shitposting?

Faster than light travel (or any travel whatsoever) was never mentioned or implied in the film.

>>87347911
It was something that could only be understood when you thought in their language, and their language was what they were offering.

Don't tell me you're too stupid to remember it?

>>87347941
Yes, they were offering their non-linear language as a gift to humanity so we can help them in 3000 years with some bullshit. I say again, never is faster than light travel mentioned or even implied.

I recall a few lines that laid out that FTL was only possible with their language. They got to earth, right? That implies FTL.

If you liked the movie I would recommend reading the story it was based on "The Story of Your Life" by Ted Chiang. Its better and more logical.

"Mental time travel" is not faster than light travel. Also, there is no time travel in Arrival whatsoever.

Only her perception on time changes where she "remembers" the future just like we remember our past in the form of memories.
She is never literally moving to an another place in time, she is always in the current narrative.
You aren't time travelling when you are remembering a childhood memory for example, are you?

Before she haves her. It's her daughter, not son

Your side shot 6 cops with a sniper rifle. The schizo with the dodge can at least claim self defense, you reprehensible bigot.

>>87348515
Actually FTL is time travel in all cases. Both are strictly impossible as well. Also the aliens had to have gotten there somehow.

>>87348487
Nope.
She experiences time simultaneously. Time doesn't move from A to B, the way humans perceive it. It's happening all at once. The alien language lets her perceive it the same way as the aliens.
And it's all predetermined in the film, she can't change anything. It's not like she views her future like a youtube video and then continues with her life normally.
There is no other choice available, she never could've changed her decisions because all of the past, present and future decisions are interconnected and experienced at the same time. That's why it's non linear.

Perceiving time non-linearly does not equate time travel.

>>87348636
>It's happening all at once
And you accept that that is not how our reality is set-up, right?

>>87348626
He won't. I'm glad you outed yourself as an alt-rightist, by the way. Now I know I was correct in my initial assessment of you.

I really enjoyed the idea of "would you still have a child if you knew it would die of cancer?" It left me thinking on it for like a week. Having all the good and bad experiences with your future daughter in your brain and having to make that decision knowing how horribly she's going to die.

>that part where she uses the kangaroo story then immediately admits it's fake so that autists don't scream "OH MY GOD THAT WAS A FAKE STORY AND I AM TOO DUMB TO REALIZE SHE USED IT TO TRICK HIM LIKE HOW FLETCHER MADE UP THE CYMBAL STORY IN WHIPLASH"

I haven't seen as much hate for Arrival anywhere as on /tv/. That tells something

>>87350970
I mean in the world of the movie ~everything is predetermined~ and she basically has no choice which kinda sucks the life out of any "spiritual epiphany" she or the audience might have construed from her experiences

but in real life if you have a kid *knowing* they're gonna die prematurely and horribly of some disease just for your own profound life experience that's not being enlightened, it's being a sociopath

>>87351789
For once I agree with /tv/. This movie bored me to tears. Fuck your >muh complex emotions.

>>87351794
Well in the world of the movie she did make the decision to have the child. She had a choice and because of the choice she made it determined the future and made a circle.

I wonder whether the daughter felt the same way
but we never find out because she's treated as a device by her mother and by the writers rather than a person/character in her own right

though not exactly the same (and I'm not endorsing eugenics of disabled fetuses) it reminded me heavily of those blogs you see written by parents with severely disabled children where they talk all about what a struggle it is and how profound and what better people they are for their experiences without ever mentioning the kid's wellbeing

>>87351872

I think that thought probably goes through most of their heads.

>>87351789
4chan is an anonymous website so it's just as possible that all the haters for it are the same person. It doesn't really tell me much.

I don't worry too much about the number of people I see liking or disliking a movie on 4chan. I'm just happy if I can engage someone in good discussion about it.

>>87343578
I liked it OP, but no.

>>87343578
>best movie
>of the last ten years
I sure love all the arguments you posted to substantiate your outrageous claim OP.

>>87351872
in real life, if you have a kid and they get something as unpredictable as cancer that's just horribly fucking unlucky; the fact she "knows" the kid will die of cancer in the future is not really something that happens in real life- though you may be aware of a genetic predisposition towards a disease, it's not the same as knowing it's going to happen for absolute certain

instead I'd compare it more to people like those parents who had those two kids with microcephaly or whatever it was knowing their kids would basically be vegetables, not even stopping after having the first one
the ones who had their photos circulated on 4chan as memes a couple of years back

>>87352088
You realize that the OP has probably been doing so within the thread.

>>87352050
You clearly never encountered one.
They love their kids probably even more than your own mother loves you because of the fact that they are aware that they can lose their child at any time.

>>87352124
I think it's much more likely he just started another shitty bait thread

>>87352148
>They love their kids probably even more than your own mother loves you
I'm not saying they don't love them. But I'm sure the thought goes through their head that if they hadn't had them in the first place they wouldn't have to suffer.

>>87352117
But the fact is that all of the parents that have kids that happen to get cancer somehow would still have them if you asked them "Would you have your child again knowing what would happen with it?"

Also in the film she has no other choice but to have the kid, she can either cry about it or fully embrace it and cherish every single waking moment with her.

I don't watch movies, due to state of movies, mostly oldies. But I can't see this being better then war of the worlds, or even independence day resurgence. Looks like a basic alien film with family values and touching moments I will skip through. Give me a movie better than the VVitch, or go home.

>Also in the film she has no other choice but to have the kid
You misunderstand. She has already made her choice. She wants to have the kid. It's not being made for her. The future reality is a result of her making the choice.

>>87352251
>all of the parents that have kids that happen to get cancer somehow would still have them if you asked them
I really, really doubt that's true
some of them maybe
but from sheer variance in peoples' attitudes to death etc. alone I highly doubt that it'd be even close to unanimous

I recognise the determinism of the movie complicates things so I'm not comparing it directly to the real-life equivalent, as I said here >>87352117

in the movie, it's hard to see her experiences as holding any great "lesson" to us though because the very fact she has no other option but to go through the same actions endlessly/simultaneously means she has no free will or even the illusion thereof, and therefore isn't really "human" anymore in a way we would recognise, she's more like a machine or a natural process without the pathos that defines our species and the experience of life as we know it

>>87352311
>I don't watch movies because I have formed a very strong opinion despite having very little experience and I don't want to consider the possibility that I may be wrong.
People who refuse to even try anything new and make sweeping assumptions to justify their bullshit are the biggest plebs in the entire world.

>>87351356
No. It doesn't matter how you experience time, your decisions are still your descitions. You just experience them and your whole life at once.

Ofc the movie has to be linear so I guess it is kinda hard to grasp the concept. She decided to have the child that's why she knows it's future.

>>87343578
I liked it but when she learned the entire alien language outta nowhere and shit started becoming (obviously) non-linear it just felt like a shitty Enemy retread.

>>87352530
>it's hard to see her experiences as holding any great "lesson" to us
Hardly disagree.

The film shows how if you would know your whole life from start to finish you would find beauty and joy from the smallest bits of moments in days which you may take now for granted (hence her daughter)

Here's an excerpt from an interview with Villeneuve to maybe clear things up for you:
>"The idea is that the heptapods see life like a [scripted] play. They know what will happen, so they have the choice — either they do it bored to death, or they embrace it and try to be at their best, like an actor on a stage."

So it's about embracing death (instead of denying it like we do) as an essential part of life and appreciating every waking moment of it.

>So it's about embracing death (instead of denying it like we do) as an essential part of life and appreciating every waking moment of it.
This. The short life her daughter will live is more important that her tragic death.

>>87352717
surely she can't experience death if she's constantly experiencing all moments in time in her lifespan at once? like how can she die if she's not moving through time ->->-> in her own perception in a linear fashion?

I know one of the heptapods dies, it just seems like an odd logistical hole to me, I don't understand how "death" would function to someone with that perception.

>>87352789
yeah but does the daughter agree with that? she seems pretty upset about it at the beginning.

>>87345311
I thought it was good actually. Yeah, setting it at a dinner party and having all their relationship issues come out is a bit played out but it was solidly made overall

>>87352472
Yeah, that's what caused the divorce. She told her husband what would happen to their child and that she "made the wrong choice".
The ending made me tear up a bit. She knew how it would end and how she would be alone after everything and she still chose that path so she would still have those experiences.

I really enjoyed this movie.

>>87352977
why didn't she "decide" to do something different then?
like having a kid on a different day
if the predetermined loop of actions still relies on her decisions for it to determine itself in the first place and create an unstoppable future, why decide to have a kid who's gonna die of cancer horribly? just to be melodramatic?

>>87354041
Because waiting/having a kid on a different day would result in an entirely different person, while she already deeply loved her daughter specifically (just like she loved her). And "waiting" doesn't mean that the other kid you would have wouldn't have cancer also.

Also I'm pretty sure it's all predetermined in the film already.

>>87344154
What was the plot twist again?

>>87354536
The flashbacks were actually flashforwards.

Isn't there some super cheesey line about love like that one from Interstellar? Can't remember it right now...

>>87348271
Where is 42 on that list

>>87354821
"Without love, it cannot be seen" - The Neon Demon

I asked what movies were better you triggered weeb

>>87355993
(You)

you have to go back

>>87356533
Loser.

>>87352867

The idea was solid, but the retarded minimalistic thesis shit so even the stupidest fuck can understand it made it a little underwhelming. But I agree, it's still pretty fun.

just watched due to your post

this fucking director is the king of ominous

makes you fucking shiver man

cried like a faggot for a minute straight near the end there man holy fuck

ty

knowing what you will arrive to and not changing a thing

powerful

>>87343645
Boring film, pretty sure I fell asleep during it.

I can't even remember what happened in it. That's how forgettable it was.
