nobody said older films are automatically better but time has a way of sifting away the mountains of trash every era has produced

Lmao you talkin s*** too

Yep that’s exactly what I said, you superniggas do you, I’ll do me.

cream rises to the top, if something has had 70 years to marinate, been discussed and watched best believe it's good or at least has the value of watchin lol

I’ll queue up a Lav Diaz film. Found it on Kanopy

Lmao y’all deadass some cornballs in here, buncha niggas in here chatting about me

Happy Gilmore is an underrated arthouse masterpiece of contemporary times. Pretentious comedy film still gets a laugh over 20 years.

Should’ve called neo-dust for that matter

you don't find it suspicious that the number 1 film is also streaming on their service

you don't find that SUSPICIOUS

Never imagined this would reach 40 pages

I ended up watching the full first quarter of Shoah last night and would have started the second part of it wasn’t so late. Already feels like arguably the greatest thing to make use of the film medium, but me saying that is loaded by the expectation that the rest of the documentary keeps things up. I might finally be ready to do some Frederick Wiseman docs after this

I watched this w my grandma. She hates cursing in movies and loved it. Marty the goat no cap

Watched with my momma who also hates cursing and she liked it too power of cinema

I thought Stalker was my top runtime this year or Betty Blue…Andrei Rublev feels way shorter than it is

Same!

no it's not suspicious that the BRITISH STATE OWNED FILM INSTITUTE who gets tax money owns rights for streaming, screening and distributing many of the films on the list

At the end of the day, I like old films as they don’t make it anymore. It encompasses all facets of cinema from story, special effects, and how it aged like bourbon sitting in the cellar for decades. I watched Richard Donner’s underrated film, Inside Moves. Which it’s wholesome, but elegiac. Made in 1980 and sure aged well enough. Onto Putney Swope. That film also still holds up and absurdly funny plus relevant as ever. Robert Downey Sr. is a maverick of his time. Therefore, I don’t complain.

Putney Swope Is great.

I’m confused on why y’all are defending your love for old films, I never said there’s anything wrong with it. I’ve clearly stated I love old films too.

A few users FIRST was clowning @Jonboi for mentioning Tarantino saying “watch more movies loser” that’s when I said oh ppl are being pretentious in here. Is that not valid?

And then someone else said “40-60s movies makes todays films look like s***” (paraphrasing)

I don’t see how y’all took offense to my pretentious comments cus honestly they wasn’t even aimed at you or Elric to begin with. They was literally aimed at the people who was clowning on Jon.

In my post, I specifically said after I watch a film saying, they don’t make them anymore like they used to. Indeed them films in the past s***s on theme park rides and gloat of remakes and frauds.

That’s cool, but you and ya little minions gotta stop twisting around my words on here

It’s better than Parasite
