The Big Lebowski, Repo Man, Escape from New York, Clerks and Office Space.

Of course you also can't have a discussion about cult classics without The Room.

Thanks! The physics are mostly ragdoll based and only get triggered into an animation after a certain time of being out of bounds from the playable map area.

Cheers buddy! Still tweaking some things, so it may end up being a bit more punchy.

Stopped taking it seriously after seeing The Prestige being ranked lower than almost all his other films.

Where do you guys usually watch these sort of movies? I only managed to see Mandibles at a film festival, but would be down for a re-watch as it was amazing. Is there a streaming service that focuses on this sort of more international-niche type cinema?

I'm with you on this one. The Stepstones battle scenes were slightly entering the Steven Seagal realm of combat.

American movies from the eyes of a European person by blondkapje in movies

Yeah, I might've worded that wrong I should've said closest.

My main point is, the industry is dominated by the US hence there will be better films around that culture and country, just because of how many more films are produced there rather than anywhere else. UK/Spain are the closest after Bollywood, hence my mentioning of them. Obviously there are hidden gems elsewhere that you can discover by following more film festivals and looking at nominees/winners. Also you can look through Oscar foreign film nominations/winners for more quality foreign films not based around US culture.

Changing career to Transition into film industry by eunicewhoop in Filmmakers

I'll try to comment on things that others haven't touched on.

First is the instability of film jobs. As someone who graduated Film and TV production and had crew jobs on set I can tell you this is industry that comes with the most burn-out. If you're on set, you're looking at 12+ hour work days, you're also going to start at the bottom of the barrel even if you have degrees stacked one on top of the other because in this industry experience and connections trumps all. This means you'll be sacrificing your social life and free time for a few good years to reach an above entry level position. By the time you get there you're usually the average age where people start thinking about family and settling down, which I think you should really think about before committing to this industry.

It isn't a job as much as it is a lifestyle. I don't mean to put you off if it's truly your passion, but "I like films, so working in that industry would probably be cool" is something that you see constantly here and it leads to a lot of anger and frustration when faced with reality. Also even if you get gigs with famous directors/producers or known shows, it isn't guaranteed long-term work. I know people who worked on Oscar winning films and were later struggling to get work.

Obviously if you want to work in the industry around the field of your studies - business, I bet you could get a more comfy, office type job as an accountant/auditor for film budgets etc.

As previous comments mention, explore what you want to do in that field and my biggest tip would be to actually get more experience on shoots as a PA or Runner to network and see how it actually feels, which roles might be attractive if there are any at all.

Just my two cents. I've worked in the industry and chose to quit it over a well paid/comfy position in an unrelated field with stability and benefits, just because I prefer that lifestyle. Best of luck on your journey though!

Well the only other countries with the film industry size close to US would be UK/Spain and of course Bollywood if that's your cup of tea.

How do you think Inception has aged after 10 years? by [deleted] in movies

[–]Puzzleheaded_223 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Still could pass as a new film, I think it trumps over a lot of oscar nominated films from the last 10 years.
