more kino than ANY MCU flick
Agree. Fantastic matte painting.
The Shadow was fucking BASED. I rented it like ten times as a kid. I loved it so much. Hollywood would never do another version justice.
even the actual capeshit industry hates this character, they did a whole Batman crossover where he's emasculated and lectured by Batman and another comic where he's turned SJW instead of staying old and problematic
I'm not the only one who misses those, right? Like, even on movies that pride themselves on doing everything practical i'm still yet to see a modern movie that brings matte paintings back.
I miss them too.
>Ending with a Taylor Dane song
>kino
no.
It was an okay film with some amusing bits before Alec Baldwin turned out to be batshit crazy.
Main theme was kino though:
The Art Deco aesthetic in this movie is impressive
>aesthetics capeshitters will never understand
>accusing me as capeshitter
Nigga plis
Didn't one of Scorcese's recent movies use matte paintings?
Eitherway, it's a lost art since the rise of digital.
not you fren I mean the MCU audience and the like, art deco is old and racist and fascist and sexist etc
Best animal centric film ever made.
Keaton's Gotham too, albeit a little bit too Gothic rather than Deco
It was gone with New Batman Adventures. Chances are you show the average modern day gap-mouthed capeshit watcher BTAS he's gonna be bored or angry it's so 'old fashioned' looking
The rockettere
True. They will never understand the beauty of pic related.
The 90s were the best time for Pulp Heroes.
The Shadow. The Rocketeer. The Phantom (fuck you I liked it Billy Zane was perfect). Dick Tracy.
Also the two best superhero movies came out int he 90s. Black Mask and Darkman.
Amazonia. Find it. Watch it. It's the best I ever saw.

Absolute Kino
(maybe even a Dzieło)
The song in the club was great too.

>Black Mask
The one with Jet Li?
meh, still better than when DC turned him into a spandex wearing hero with a sidekick in the 80s
Yup. More like the ONES though since there's like 100 cuts of the movie.
having watched The Shadow as a kid and reading some of the old magazine ebooks i cannot believe how the wealthy lived in the those days while most of the country was starving and eating dirt in shantytowns.
>literally just live out of huge hotel suites
>go out for dinner and drinks at 8-9oclock at night with live singer / big band entertainment
>new woman every night
>just decide to throw a big party at your apartment or mansion at any fucking hour of the night
>always a member of some prestigious club or society where you sit around drinking all night in a study or something
>don't fucking work a day in your life and do it all again night after night
>when you get board of somewhere just pack up and travel around the country / world
it doesn't surprise me many of the bad guys in these stories were wealthy, imagine living through the depression and looking up at those glowing penthouses while your dad can't even pay for electricity or food
A studio would probably have a hard time finding artists that can do matte painting
>The One with Jet Li?
It was just a pun:
You do realize that stuff is just fantasy and doesn't completely represent the reality at the time, right user?
Thats why Public Enemies were actually popular among the general populace.
Actually it's pretty accurate. People bitch and moan about income disparity today, but in the late 19th and early 20th century there was an even BIGGER gap between the rich and poor than there is today. The rich were ABSURDLY rich back in the day, even MORE so than now. There's a reason that America had a thriving population of socialists and communists that only faded away after the post WWII economic boom.
A pun you say?

Never in my life have I laughed harder at a movie scene, and to this day, I don’t know if they did it on purpose or not.
I miss the hell out of them.
That's cute but hardly a laugh riot. Camel/Llama.
If you're talking the smoke, that was a thing back then in advertising. There were lots of gimmicks like that.
I’m talking about the hokey morph into Shiwan Khan and the hyper-sincere delivery of the hypno speech.
>Reeeeeeeinhaaaaaardt Laaaaaaaaaaaane
I’m giggling like a retard just thinking about it.
I think the funniest scene was this one:
>There is no Shadow
The Shadow was kino
>Next time you get to be on top
She was so fucking hot.
I loved this movie so fucking much. I ran across it late one night on cable and was hooked.
Me too, man. Absolutely wonderful film, cheesy effects and all.
Just as perfect as I expected. HNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG!!
The Sun is shining...
Margo was super hot in that movie.
But the ice is slippery!
The Shadow is like a parody action movie. It fucking cracks me up.
>"Of course! He's hypontized the entire city except for me!"
>climax in a maze of mirrors
>using telekenetic powers so hard you're literally shaking
Dick Tracy, now there's a forgotten kino. The production design on that film is amazing.

>Davidge
I thought for over half the movie that his name was David, and that the alien just couldn't say it properly
Batman swiped everything from The Shadow though
Holy shit, I saw this in the theatre. Totally forgot about it.
Might watch this on Saturday so no spoilers please!
>when the little bear eats mushrooms and gets high
>when the bears throws rocks and splatters some dogs

>Randa here's gonna fix us some lunch, ain't ya Randa?
>No.
>Well then you can just go shit in your hat.
Best exchange ever.

This movie.
That does sound good.
It reminds me of the elfman batman theme, which is also fucking awesome.
My eyes and a part inside my brain I never even knew was there just came.
"Dark Deco"
Goddamn I loved BTAS.
I can't imagine a childhood of growing up with this current shit compared with the GOAT what was that and the fucking real effort that went into it, unlike so much modern, half baked political bullshit.
>JL theme
I never liked that theme.
Unlimited's was much better.

I have heard that, that batman was originally basically just a Shadow knockoff, and that he even used dual pistols just like the Shadow very early on.
