Controversy Anonymous 09/01/2020 (Tue) 15:35:14 No.386 [Reply]
[JW06 ~ 05/10/2020] Post about movies that generated controversy. While I leave this thread open to controversial content such as graphic violence, sex, or political thought, I want to remind anons to consider controversial direction as well such as pic related.

Have anyone seen this? Is it just reenactment porn or better? It's on netflix.
>It's on netflix POZZING red alert You should watch that axis miniseries about soldiers which is in german with subs, you'll have to look around I can't remember it. It was pretty damn good.
>>952 Is it "Generation War"?
>>954 Yeah that's the one, It had some retarded kike shit in it though but it was decent lol
>>962 I read through the plot on wiki. There is some retarded stuff indeed, and no lack of melodramatic situations. I'll check it out regardless, thanks.

Films that made you think Anonymous 09/06/2020 (Sun) 10:41:26 No.697 [Reply]
Vague enough title to hopefully allow for a broader discussion, which films made you sit and think, either about the content or the commentary that it creates? Pic related elephant man, ie Joseph Merrick sparked my interest in historical treatment of "freaks" that are suffering medical conditions, it is a difficult one because his finances relied upon people coming to see him to fulfil their curiosities but when Britain became too sensitive for that he had to travel abroad to find work and suffered for it
all about lily chou chou. an amazing film that probably changed my life
>>755 Please tell us more
Is there anything like nobodytm or randy prozac now? Absurdist videos that are critical of modernity rather than worshiping it? I really liked some of nobody's work in particular. Burden didn't do it for me.
>>755 good share. straight from the ether
Well, if i may meddle, for me the films that made me think and change permanently were Miike's Ichi the Killer and KWWong's Ashes of Time. Not because of their plot, ideas or content but because they bend and invent their own rules in terms of cinematography and visuals. In this case it's more of a meta thing that made me thunk. Miike is a mixture of knowledge in unorthodox photography and wing-it on-the-fly attitude in solutions to his busy filming schedule, while Wong uses many sequences based on old ideas and even ripped off at times (moving backgrounds, dynamic lighting, spinning cage from Macario) but teaming up with a sophisticated character like Mark Lee or a maverick savant like Christopher Doyle really potentiated said ideas into overdrive. Ichi was my first exposure to this kind of camera work while Ashes was a heavily-condensed single dose of it.

Do you visit any other film-related communities? Anonymous 09/02/2020 (Wed) 19:47:47 No.641 [Reply]
[JW19 ~ 02/18/2020] I guess it's kinda off-topic but given the board is slow, I figured out you won't mind my asking.
2 posts omitted.
I can't stand other non-imageboard communities anymore. Too many faggots who act like they're on Reddit. tfw you'll never have a small group of friends who are really into /film/ and regularly have movie nights
>>643 they will learn their lesson the hard way
I tried to mingle around every other site but I ended up on CG and KG forums, which seem like the most "fun", it's nice to have an actual place to discuss and share, specially for me since just moved into southern Italy and film here seems to be dead forgotten. I tried to get a production company based in my town to help my projects but I knocked on their door at their small office and they never opened lol Guess I need to go guerrilla style from now on
>>643 >but because they are unorthodox for the board's theme (aka not really classy stuff, Shaw Bros iron flag related) My current tastes (American classics and ultra-low budget trash) don't really seem like appropriate discussion material. And yeah, I don't have much to say. It's fine lurking and just reading other posts every now and then. In terms of other sites, no I don't really visit any except a couple private trackers, IMDB and I still sometimes scroll through Letterboxd lists even though I don't have an account. >>646 You should keep pursuing other companies. The world always needs more archivists. It's a bummer when I watch a great film that hasn't seen any other release other than some shit VHS.

Cut! Anonymous 09/01/2020 (Tue) 15:58:50 No.417 [Reply]
[JW07 ~ 05/30/2020] What's the consensus on fan re-edits? Like the Dune edit, for example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=94d77kdmOvU I've been wanting to put my hands on Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, maybe trim down the running time and move around some awkwardly placed T.V./Movies scenes? But I don't know if it's worth the time so, If you've seen the film before, let me know what you think, maybe share some things you would've liked to change/see in an edit?

The only real use of fan edits is editing adaptations closer to the source material.
>>417 >Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, maybe trim down the running time and move around some awkwardly placed T.V./Movies scenes Interesting. I was checking the fanedits on myspleen and someone made a 3+ hour version of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. He adds an overture and intermission to made it a roadshow cut. I doubt I'd ever watch this, but here are his comments. <Well after my take on the extended cut of the Hateful 8 available here I decided to get the web download of Tarrantino’s new Once Upon a Time in Hollywood plus the separate special features/extra’s that are available to buy and try and duplicate a form of Roadshow/Extended Cut to mirror my Hateful 8 Extended Cut. <This is not a straight forward duplicate of the standard theatrical cut, as in the standard cut is 2hrs 41mins and this version is 3hrs 7mins around 26mins longer. <How did I achieve this fan edit, well I inserted all the available deleted scenes back into the movie as well as inserting a Overture, an Intermission and 2 of the 60’s made tv commercials that Tarrantino made but didn’t make the final cut. <The run of the movie is an overture followed by a Red Apple advertisement before the movie kicks in, the overture title card I created and tried to make it look basic and bright for the setting of the Hollywood Hills movie. Myspleen has 446 fanedits, of which 124 involve Star Wars.
>>421 >>423 That's the part I was missing, I knew composites were fine, I just felt a bit assblasted by QT. >>424 I was trying to find a movie (this is an understatement, I am going insane trying to find this) from the early 2000's and ended up looking through the entire wikipedia list of movies released by year, then ended up in Independent lists, at least 1/4th of every Indie movie released between 2002 and 2007 is Star Wars, I was surprised. Fuck it, can I make a "name this film" thread? I've posted in every other site, no one knows about the one I'm looking for, maybe /film/ will lend a hand?
>>425 >can I make a "name this film" thread Go ahead, not much else going on in this board
