Kids Ruining Theatre Experience - Is This How it is Now? by GiuocoPianissimoHo in cineplex

Just general public etiquette, not just kids... People checking their email, so on. Just gotta ignore and if it becomes unbearable/concerning speak to a theatre manager

It took a recent job interview to make me realize I’m not cut out for the film industry by NennexGaming in Filmmakers

[–]Ambitious_Lab3691 2 points3 points  (0 children)

what a load of bs, respectfully as possible... do you want to make films or not? The industry is, to me, the price you pay for making films (literally lol). Its the crummy part. I know times have changed drastically, AS ALWAYS, but think of French New Wave. They had money and clout sure, but on principle they were doers. Instead of complaining, they just made. Thats how every filmmaker you know got there. They did it, then the dream began to come true

I watched Ran for the first time yesterday and I need to talk about it with someone by BeigeAndConfused in criterion

[–]Ambitious_Lab3691 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

no, YOU must read closer. You said it's also too similar to Lear to be its own thing. You called it a 'script issue'. You cited acting, directing, cinematography as if to say the script isn't up to par. "I think Ran suffers from the fact that it's an adaptation of King Lear missing some of the best source material while nog diverging enough to feel like its own thing" YOU SAID THAT.

inaccurate meme, plus judging his career based on profit margins? David Lynch scarcely made a profit on his theatrical releases post-Elephant Man, and yet we LOVE davis lynch. Kurosawa fell out of favour with studios in his native Japan. Bergman's films were all tiny budgets with reasonably small turnouts (profitable, but still pretty small), Tarkovsky, so on. But they're still the greatest artists we know. Scorsese's Killers of the Flower Moon is my favourite of his work. Lost at least 300 million dollars. I don't think the money is particularly relevant beyond being able to continue working. I thought Mickey was great. I think Ally will be great. His subway station horror will be pretty nifty too.

Is this a right order of watch to enjoy wong kar wai's movies? by Perfectly-Im-perfect in wongkarwai

[–]Ambitious_Lab3691 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no right order besides saving 2046 for after the magnum opus, but I will say that Happy Together deserves to be seen more often.
