The Lighthouse

Saw this the other day at Tiff and it was super whack. Not bad or anything but desu I liked The Witch better. Acting, set design, cinematography, dialogue all really good but... the narrative was just too incoherent

Reminder: It's one lunatic making these posts constantly.

Sadly this and uncut gems seem to be the only good americans films this year now that joker is confirmed for pleb bait

He's a Disney shill.

Wasn't this released in the UK already?

Why can't people film with old film? why does everything look so digital even when it's black and white? There must be old reels of film to use that aren't ruined.

why are you even here? Do you even enjoy any films?

what do you even gain from this? you could be watching movies

They want to get the clean digital look while also attracting the "it's shot on film therefore it's friggin superior" pseud audience.

no it's not gramps

It was shot on black-and-white 35mm film.

What's wrong with basedjak posters?

If this film is more than 80 min it's gonna suck

Samuel Beckett called he wants his shtick back

Samuel Beckett can't call because he's dead

That's so Beckettesque

Disney garbage is unironically better than this bullshit because at least no one pretends it's high art.

Actually, that's so Raven

Look at yourself in the mirror user.
You're so irony poisoned that you think lowest common denominator corporate slop is better than an original film with an actual artistic vision.
Is the film bad? Yeah probably but at least he tried and wasn't under the directive of some soulless company board.

This is the problem with you fucking zoomers. Marvel films are just normal because they're the zeitgeist and everything outside of the zeitgeist is "cringe"
Go fuck yourself faggot

They turned tail when "It Comes At Night" released and was nothing like the trailer.

There's tentacles so it must be Lovecraftian.

>It's bad but at least he tried and hey it's different
Fuck off, literally any talentless hack can make something abstract and ""trippy"" with moody visuals. I could throw all of the shit in my fridge and spice rack into a pan and cook it up into an "original meal" with "culinary vision," but it wouldn't be be better than some "soulless" and "corporate" nuggets from Burger King. At least the nuggets aren't being hailed as something they're not.

holy kekadoodledoo this triggered reddit

Posting here renders a person joyless.

You know what user.
There are people who care for you. I know deep down you’re a good person and I’m sure you have some nice personality traits.
The world isn’t completely bad, and I hope you’ll understand some day. Have a good one, user :)

How is a drama about two blokes in a lighthouse "abstract" and "trippy".

>Robert Eggers tries to convince people that everyone talked in that retarded comical way back then even though there is no evidence that it ever happened.

>Like ugh oh my god I feel sorry for you get help sweetie
Why are Robert Eggers fans like this? Why can't they just accept that people on Yea Forums simply aren't impressed by his shitty "arthouse" flicks? There are tons of other forums (r/truefilms) where you could go to discuss his work without being attacked like this, so why not just go there?

Because people rather not go to Reddit to talk about movies seriously lol. If you're seriously recommending a fucking subreddit than fuck off

Ok then accept the Yea Forums banter. If you make a thread about literally classic film by any amazing director some poster on here will invariably call him a talentless fag but people will just move past it and continue their discussion. It's only in onions horror threads that you see people having a fit over it and demanding to know why shitposters are attacking their precious film. That's why these threads get flooded with SLOW BURN/BONE CHILLING basedjack posts, because everyone knows they can get a rise out of furious Redditors by posting shit like that.

I've literally heard modern Americans speak that way. Did you think this was an accent made up by Spielberg for Jaws, or something?

I'm not the same user. Just making fun of your suggestion to go to Reddit. But I agree, if you can't take the heat, than get out of the kitchen

It sort of makes me think of a much higher budget Are You Afraid of the Dark story.

It seems like all the reddit wojackposters are crying because of the reddit A24 fanbase more than the actual films themselves. It’s just reddit making fun of reddit. If you think A24 is high class art and you are superior for watching it you are a retard, if you think A24 films suck because they have no jump scares and are not 80’s slasher films then you are a retard. The truth is A24 films are just normal films but they seem artsy because nowadays most films are just very formulaic sequels.

Really, you'd think Eggers'd be more popular here; he's a director with his own vision that largely seems to be allowed to do what he pleases, he has a passion for his New England ancestry and isn't forcing in any minorities, hamfisted messages, etc. I don't particularly care for A24 and its sudden popularity, but I DO like him. I'm really hoping we'll see stills for his Medieval knight movie.

Love the sea, love historic movies, love Robert Eggers, love Robert Paterson, fucking hyped on this. People meme about the witch on here but that movie was all about fucking pilgrims doing pilgrim shit in the most pilgrim ways and it was amazing. In this trailer Willem Defoes voice alone has me sold, if I get to see the saltiest sailors ever it's worth it

That stupid pasta and basedjack always makes me laugh

What!? Elaborate further please!

I LIKE HOW THE ENTIRE MOVIE LOOKS LIKE ONE OF THOSE OLD TIMEY PHOTOGRAPHS

CANT WAIT FOR THIS A24 SLOWBURN

It's the praise that he gets from faggy critics and and easily impressed Redditors that triggers Yea Forums's contrarianism. I shit on him almost every time I see his name brought up on here and I don't even think he's a bad director. Take VVitch for example. An OK flick, but you had people spamming the shit out of it (with lots of waifu posting) while unironically claiming that it was a modern classic and one of the most terrifying films ever made. Of course posters like that are going eventually wear on everybody's nerves and cause people to retaliate by coming up with memes like BONE CHILLING. I'm sure The Lighthouse is a solid film, it's just probably nowhere near as good as certain people are acting like it is.

All the A24 films I've watched were mind-numbingly boring, so no. Movies are supposed to be entertaining.

What ones have you watched?

SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD, WHEN CAN I PREORDER TICKETS

>CRAFT BY POST-HORROR AUTEUR
*CRAFTED BY

Under the Silver Lake, Hereditary and Midsommar

I haven't seen Under the Silver Lake; I could understand hating A24 based on Hereditary and Midsommar, though. Really, I just like A24 for the VVitch, which is why I'm cautiously optimistic for this.

>>CRAFT BY POST-HORROR AUTEUR
>*CRAFTED BY
how the fuck would “crafted by” work in that sentence you retarded monkey

THE WHOLE SENTENCE IS A MESS

IT SHOULD BE CRAFTED BY A POST-HORROR AUTEUR
