The accent is accurate to the period and location. The Lovercraftian shit is not forced but an organic part of the story. It's a thriller and character study with some humour. Not really a horror.

Ridiculous

Imagine the type of low IQ pleb that looks at this and thinks "wow thats kino". The type of people who have seen 1 film made before the 50s and think they have taste for sure

Why do you think it's pointless? Would a wide aspect ratio fit the isolated tight claustrophobic narrative better?
>>Black and white because "le oldie movie"
Would a vibrant colorful visual fit the 1890s Maine better?

How is it forced? It's literally a film about sea-faring myths, what's forced about it?
>>Defoes retarded accent

It's pretty funny actually.

Name one film just like this made before 1950s.

it actually looks kind of interesting, but I was just quoting the soihorror 4.0 chart that you or someone with a similarly functioning brain to you made.

would you care to explain why it’s bad (even though you haven’t seen more than 1 minute and 45 seconds of it) or perhaps give me some examples of a good horror film? or is it always just going to be worthless “lol ur a soiboy, dis moobie bad”?

I’m a big fan of Pattinson but I will say that the A24 formula of ‘slow burn suspense with an ambiguous ending’ is growing stale for me.

4:3 is an underrated ratio and superior to 1.85 or 16:9. There's literally nothing wrong with it.

>unpretentious fun action movie with meme actors isn't worth enjoying

Perhaps to prove that most retards on this website have no idea what good cintematography is and equate it with "pretty looking picutres".

I think they're both great for the genre and whatever other genre they decide to step into. I haven't actually seen The Lighthouse yet but they're both doing at least mildly refreshing things with their films. Seems like they've just joined the renaissance of horror with other dudes like Wheatley, Mitchell, and Peele. As much it pains me to mention Peele, he's sort of forced his way into the conversation, although his shit seems to be a bit more low brow.
That said, I don't think Eggers is a one trick pony.

>Would a vibrant colorful visual fit the 1890s Maine better?
not that user, but a very monochromatic and low-saturation palette (not color grading) are actually more effective to show a place as colorless and gray, as you see it in contrast to the film actually being in color.
Shooting something in black and white because "le it's all gray and dull and colorless" is a massive meme-tier gimmick and doesn't even work on a conceptual level because it doesn't establish any chromatic contrast.

But most of the pictures in that collage aren't even pretty, so I don't know who you're trying to fool

no, just a ripoff

Of course, some jaded no-nothing twat will rear his fat ass into this thread and go down the laundry list of how the film is bad, pseud, and how it's getting too much praise. Sure enough, his critiques amount to weak jabs but has this pigheaded conviction of the lack of quality that he knows about for sure but can't articulate.

No.
Yes, but she is not played by Anya.

Absolutely 100% sincere. Even a no name studio puppet capeshit director is more pretentious.
Every single Lynch film is as unpretentious as it can be, absolutely direct in it's intention with no "pretending" whatsoever. No "le symbolism" gimmicks or anything like that.

Because it's an active choice that strays away from convention.
Film has its own language which we call cinematic language. In a language both emitter and receiver must share the same code. That's what's considered the "conventions" of cinema. Anything that strays away from said conventions has a specific intention to it. Like, say, conventions are neutral language, and straying away from convention is like poetic language (or vulgar language, or other kinds of unconventional language). Usually, if you use unconventional language you do so with an intention. If you don't, you do it for the form in itself, which is what we define as aestheticism.
It doesn't "need" to be justified per se, but it needs to be justified if one is to consider it something else than aestheticism.

That post is a personal opinion on an aesthetic decision. There's no universal agreement that chromatic contrast is the only effective way to convey a dull or lifeless motif. Nor do we know if that was the reason the director chose to shoot in b&w.

>Likes Lion King
>Likes The Lighthouse
Okay, and?

>Also a film's narrative is one of the least important aspects of the whole.
opinion discarded

What's with the tentacle attack?

Here's the cinematographer Blaschke explaining why they picked this particular Kodak film stock
>“Two primary ideas emerged,” he says. “The first was the unsurpassed tonal range and ‘liquid’ look of a special class of developer (pyrogallol) that had its heyday at the turn of the century. The other was the hard tonal rendition of orthochromatic film, which exaggerates skin texture, atmospheric haze and brightens skies. This is because orthochromatic film can’t ‘see’ red light: ultraviolet and blue light are rendered quite light, whilst orange and red colors, such as skintones, are rendered darker. I realised that this would give a specific B&W tonal signature that would transport the viewer right to our period setting."
>"During prep, Blaschke started by testing digital footage and color negative film (KODAK VISION3 500T Color Negative Film 5219 ), both desaturated in post, alongside EASTMAN DOUBLE-X 5222 panchromatic negative. Introduced in 1959, DOUBLE-X Film5222 was used to create the moody intensity on many Hollywood features, such as Martin Scorsese’s Raging Bull (1980, DP Michael Chapman ASC) and Steven Spielberg’s Schindler’s List (1993, DP Janusz Kaminski ASC).
>“The results confirmed my hunch, that nothing approached the palette we were after quite like B&W negative film,” says Blaschke. “Rob and I saw that the blottier, murkier qualities of DOUBLE-X better-suited our misty, salty, visually-distressed film.”

>There's no universal agreement that chromatic contrast is the only effective way to convey a dull or lifeless motif.
Yes, yes there is, see in any case, assuming what you say, then the concept of using black and white to show a "gray" ambiance would be rendered m00t.
>Nor do we know if that was the reason the director chose to shoot in b&w.
Fair enough, but his intention not being clear gives me, as a receiver of his coded emission, the right to say that I don't understand it and therefore must interpret it as an aestheticist choice.

>weird
Not really

>omg this one faggot like spiderman and will probably like the lighthouse therefore everyone itt likes spiderman

Yeah I'm sure I can scroll through reviews like a crybaby autist and find a capeshitter loving both Marvel flicks and Lawrence of Arabia, does that suddenly mean that everyone who likes Lawrence of Arabia likes capeshit?

No.

>transport the viewer right to our period setting
gimmick, not intention.

>DOUBLE-X Film5222 was used to create the moody intensity
aestheticist.
(that said, Double-X is god-tier BW film)

tl;dr they don't have an intention, just an aestheticist gimmick. My point stands.
Roma could justify the black and white with exactly the same consideration
>transport viewer to period setting

what else do they have

>gimmick, not intention.
How is that a gimmick? He uses black and white to get into the period, that's the intention.
>Roma could justify the black and white with exactly the same consideration
No one gives a fuck about Roma, stop talking about it

>they don't have an intention
But they had an aesthetic intention.

Robert eggers should be drawn and quartered

>Roma could justify the black and white with exactly the same consideration
No it couldn't because it crystal clear crisp and Cuaron loudly said that he wanted for it to look as modern as possible, just without color.

Thank god people start shitting on this movie early.
I have never seen a more pretentious, reddity movie in the last years.

Reminds me of that black mirror christmas special where John Hamm and Rafe Spall are two fellas at an outpost sharing their stories and it turns out they're [spoilers]criminals being interrogated in a simulation[/spoiler]
I think this will have the same twist, the lighthouse will be some supernatural purgatory state

Double X is also crystal clear and crisp, that's one of its great qualities. It just has more intense contrast.
If Cuarón was simply going for a "dull" black and white that would be just as valid as what Lighthouse is doing, which is create a certain mood. (And both would be falling into the gimmick trap.)

What if I studied a 4 year bachelor degree in film? Then do I know what I'm talking about?

Well what's it doing inside a lighthouse hahaha

Yes. But after seeing it many times on a TV setup.

>comparing based Edders to autistic Nolanshit
off yourself

>I don't know what Mirror is
Oh it shows, capefriend. It fucking shows

Not my fault I don't know about garbage cheap movies

>I don't know what Mirror is
just switch the tab to the capeshit thread already

>Malick
>not white
What the fuck am I reading?

How does that prove the nonexistence of a plot in a movie that you haven't seen?

>Well what's it doing inside a lighthouse
I guess we'll have to watch the movie and find out

Perfect bait

I sincerely hope you're baiting.

I find black and white movies a lot more pleasing to the eye than color movies

>hehe I was merely pretending to be a fucking plebe talking about shit I don't know about
Nice try

>the story itself is more important than how you tell it
Let’s test that theory:
>Once upon a time two Italian families really hated each other. One family had a son named Roemo and the other had daughter named jullet. They met each other and fell in love instantly. All of both families got real mad about this, especially the girl’s cousin who really wanted to have sex on her. They both got sad about this and decided to kill theirselfs. The end.

Goddamn those digits are prefect

>2001
masterpiece
>Mirror
Tarkovsky's? A terrible film. An aesthetic failure by every metric

>Arab named Terrance Abu Malik
>white
fuck.
Oh I know, it's a dream sequence.
Tarkovsky? Je-sus. He just makes shitty movies with muh visuals and zero story or pacing. Straight cancer

work on your baiting more. subtle is key

Lads lads lads, you're all correct about Double-X. You can get different looks out of different films depending on your exposure, development, printing, etc. You can make Double-X look grainy and contrast-y as all hell if you use an older developer like Rodinal, high temperatures and lots of agitation. You can make it look smooth and modern with a high-tech developer (Adox Silvermax is a great fit and keeps the highlights in check) and more sensible handling. The film itself is just one piece of the puzzle. Personally, after trying a few rolls of Double X I don't care for it - it's not forgiving (at least compared to more popular film stocks) and I didn't feel it had any truly special qualities. I think a big part of it's appeal as a cinema film is the fact that it's cheap, readily available, and has a good general purpose ISO.

I’ve seen the lighthouse and it’s good

happy to take further questions on this matter

I hate that black and white is a meme. I really like the aesthetic, especially when it uses high contrast.

What is your opinion on black gentlemen engaging in group sex with petite white women who are married to a white man?

Is the Octopus fight a dream sequence?

Rate it out of 10.

Yes

don’t really have an opinion on it

Can’t really remember it to be honest
The whole film it’s ambiguous what’s real and what isn’t, assume that specially was signposted as some sort of dream or vision or something

KINOS ON THE MENU BOYS

Ok just watched the trailer to see which octopus bit you were talking about
actual spoiler that might ruin your enjoyment slightly: he is actually punching willem dafoe in that shot I’m 99% sure, tentacle is a “metaphor” or something

Lovecraft niggers BTFO'D

What are some kinos plotzoomers will never understand?

Is it really in 4:3 or is it just a marketing gimmick?

The whole film is that aspect ratio (which is actually tighter than 4:3)

It's 1:19:1 i think

I got really strong fake parody trailer impression from this. Didn't look like something that will shape into an actual film. Made me wish we were getting a new Moby dick adaptation shot like this starring Willem Dafoe as Ahab. Hell, Pattinson would be fine as Ishmael too. Now that would be kino.

That's pretty cool, squareish ratios need more love

Now I wish Eggers would make an actual Lovecraft's adaptation. I think he would be better than del Toro.

So authentic!!!

I unironically will go see this pure unadulterated schlock

>wanting more remakes

>The Witch
>masterpiece of horror
>The Lighthouse
>Masterpiece of psychological thriller
Is Eggers the new Kubrick?

End your life redditor

Can you just fuck off already, faggot?

It's a great fucking relief to know I don't have to deal with any of you people in real life. I'd fucking kill myself if I had to pretend I liked you when you were around. Good god

Del Toro's script for that film is garbage. Everybody can be grateful that that project got cancelled.
The Witch was good. The Lighthouse is a masterpiece, i think Eggers is the best upcoming director right now.

How should I watch this movie? Prime me for it, user. I want to get the most out of it. Make me feel like a smart bugger for watching a 4:3 black and white movie where two dudes talk funny.

Where did you read Del Toro's script, user?

It's online, i can link it if i find it.
You should watch it in cinema. The film is really funny.

Here, open it and you can read it.

I'm nonwhite, they won't release this film here. I'll have to wait for the proper 1080p release.

Do you think The Lighthouse be remembered in 50 years?

Shame. It benefits from theatrical experience.
I don't know, but it's one of the best films of the decade so it might be.

The first time I've seen this exact aesthetic replicated. The trailer makes it look and feel like some german expressionist cinema of the late 20s or early 30s.

It's not just the technical aspect of the film. The scenes from the trailer are also shot in a way that is unlike any modern movie style and the themes of the movie fit that style as well. Some people are going to complain that this is all style over substance, but that part remains to be seen. This is the most interesting movie this year so far.

bump

movie of the decade

Faggot. Go back to your capeshit thread.

If it's another
>"Oh no something spooky happens, I bet it's that other guy, oh no the paranoia has made us mad, now we're killing each other, now we're dead, the end"
kind of horror film, then count me out.

It's the laziest attempt at a "clever" horror film.
Give me a solid haunted house/mansion/castle without cheap jumpscares instead of this pretentious shit.

Something like "The Innocents".

Action thrillers are my favourite genre, and similarly related horror, but I've stopped watching A24 its such onions garbage.
