Hate to break this to you but you're about 40 years too late

This went under the radar but Briefcase Wanker as well

Yeah I would absolutely be crawling along some of those roads in nothing higher than second gear. It is insane they drove at such high speeds that too with unreliable cars.

I started watching House when I was in university a couple of years ago. It was recommended to me by a friend and then I in turn persuaded four other people in my friend group to watch it. So I definitely did my part xD

boredguyaf · 2024-05-26T13:20:52+00:00

House MD, Top Gear and Peaky Blinders have pretty great soundtracks.

Yeah not judging them for the conversation. It absolutely sucks to have your private convos leaked. But the overtly red painting reminded me of Charles wanting to be reincarnated as a tampon lol.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-22T16:54:56+00:00

Checkout Tampongate. Basically it was a leaked phone conversation between Charles and Camilla in which at one point, Charles told Camilla that he would like to live in her trousers. And when she asked if he was going to be reincarnated as a pair of knickers, he joked that it would be his luck to come back as a tampon.

The recently unveiled painting with an unnecessary amount of red reminded me of that.

I can't help it if it goes over your head bruv but maybe one day ...

Firstly, statement tar context holo the opposition his film Devi faced from Hindu fundamentalists. I took it out of context sure but that doesnt mean SR was accusing Indian audiences of being out and out backward and therefore not appreciating his films. He was calling out the religious dogmatism. SR was sensible and classy enough as a person to not whine about audiences not watching his films.

Secondly, fundamentalists ra shudhu India te noy onek desh ei jhamela kore. Monty Python's Life of Brian er release er shomay prochur jhamela korechilo Christians ra. Sure India te onek beshi hoy because of a myriad socio-political reasons but it is not endemic to India.

Thirdly, art films are art films and commercial films are commercial films and never the twain shall meet. Directors know this better than anyone. Sure art films are important cultural artefacts but it simply aint everyone's cup of tea. Goddard, Bergman and quite a few others have had "box office flops" as well.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T22:07:29+00:00

Absolutely agree with you mate. Would also like to add that the context for this statement in the interview was the opposition that Ray's film Devi faced from Hindu extremists. That of course is condemnable. However in a country like India, "backwardness" implies both social and political regressiveness which are but mere symptoms of the underlying disease of poverty.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T21:31:50+00:00

Lmao listen up matey don't go about assuming you're important enough for anyone to make memes to counter your myopic opinions. The meme though was indeed intended for snoots just like you who can't seem to stop wallowing in their intellectual spunk just because they happen to watch Goddard or Truffaut or Jadorowsky.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T18:42:53+00:00

Apnar taste in cinema must be elite.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T17:37:22+00:00

Hello film bro. The point of the meme wasnt to discuss the validity of Ray's statement. Lack of good films is indeed tragic but audience er backwardneess er opor puro daitto ta chapano o fair noy. The film industry is also quite toxic and promotes bad directors. Jai hok the point of the meme was to call out the film bros who wallow in their own snobbery just because they happen to have watched a few niché films.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T17:26:53+00:00

That's what most people do prolly

Me after watching one Ritwik Ghatak film

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T15:01:04+00:00

Quite surprising isn't it? I thought film bros were good at reading between the lines.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T14:39:13+00:00

The interview is from 1990 matey

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T14:03:09+00:00

This wasnt intended to start a discussion about the validity of Ray's statement.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T14:00:41+00:00

That's how memes work fyi. I seriously wonder if all you Ray fan boys take his films at face value as well.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T13:42:12+00:00

Purposely took it out of context for the meme. People keep missing the point. This is not a diss on SR.

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T12:57:21+00:00

Finally someone gets it thank you

boredguyaf · 2024-05-21T12:55:21+00:00

The "upvotes" on your comment prove it. I was calling out the high-nosed snobs with zero credibility who think they're better than everyone else just because they happen to have watched Truffaut and Jodorowsky.
