Are abstract movies actually enjoyable or are they just for pretentious audiences?

enjoyment is entirely subjective
What some people call pretentious, other people call imaginative.
kino is kino
Jodorowsky is for babies, Paradjanov is the real thing.
Paradjanov is for pseuds, Karavanic is where it's at.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Who cares?
I liked it.
pretentious has lost almost all meaning
Karavanic?
The Holy Mountain is absolute horse shit, but is good for involuntary comedy. Jodorowsky is a hack.
Santa Sangre was kino, but Holy Mountain was just pretentious bullshit that lost all the marbles in final third.
Holy Mountain is a master piece of visual storytelling for its first third
every single shot is full of religious/occult/arcane symbolism and historical allegories, you're just too stupid and uneducated to get it, and thus calling a perfectly coherent movie "abstract" like a grey matter vacuum you are
the film does fall apart by its last third (dunno if traditional "act" fits here), zoom back camera
fuck you too Jodo
By abstract, I mean it doesn't follow a traditional story telling structure or use traditional motifs. I'm not saying it was incoherent.
>Typical pleb doesn't know Karavanic
Mention his body of work or we´ll assume you pulled that name out of your ass
>the absolute state of Yea Forums
Do plebs here really not know this shit? Fucking hell

All considered classics of east euro arthouse cinema. Please learn a thing or two before you post here.
Why not come here to learn, my friend?
Yeah google has nothing for any of these
>he thinks he can find them on jewgle
yikes, if you knew his history you would know google isn't going to show any results for him
this but the opposite
Please explain
There's nothing to explain outside of the fact he's a faggot pulling shit out of his ass
Don't bother, he is just pulling bullshit out of his ass.

Jodorowsky is such a kook but he seems so kind and caring, he lives his life by tarot cards and has a YouTube channel where he does readings for people. He goes between telling people to do absolutely nuts shit to giving helpful life advice.
I so not understand a thing about this movie. Even El topo had better symbolisms.
Damm that's pretty based
it's all about the mystical experience
I've truly lost all hopes for this board
This movie literally is pretentious.
Did you see the ending? He actually admits to it all just being pretense and comments on the nature of art and the relationship between observed and observer.
>only lost hope now
newfags out
>not Jankovsky
lmao
and that's a good thing
Panic movies aren't abstract, they are just full of visual metaphors
I don't deal with people who converse in irony, speak up or be ignored.
If you like surrealism and watch surreal movies then yeah it's very enjoyable you fucking pleb.
it was actually about how after you become enlightened you will still find yourself in the same place, the whole movie is about the search for enlightenment
That isn't to say there isn't anything to take away from the film.
Fruitlessness of personal enlightenment.
Commoditization of spirituality.
Folly of arrogance.
But the whole film is sort of a waste of time meandering to some points that the average Yea Forums dweller could get the same takeaway from Fritz the Cat.

Well, in the same way that every movie is a series of images meant to convey a feeling.
I disagree, and would argue that Fritz the Cat does a better job of using it's imagery to involve the viewer in the setting whereas THM uses it to alienate the viewer from the setting and string together a lot of non-sequitors make an underwhelming and entry-level-art-school point.
Fritz feels more honest.
