Third-rate medium, irrelevant.

The Cannes lineup is boring to say the least.
Will check out Cronenberg and a few others.

Horrible

Au Hasard Balthazar reimagining, sounds terrible but Skolimowski is good

Definitely less exciting than the last year which had some heavy hitters. The new Andrew Dominik and Peter Greenaway films seem like the most exciting films this year to me. One will be in Venice and I hope Greenaway appears soon and starts working on his other projects. He is already 80 and he didnt kill himself.

Maybe you should stick to capeshit franchises champ

>NOOOO JUST MINDLESSLY CONSUME THE NEW DARDENNES FLICK
This lineup is as middlebrow as it gets. Even the sidebars are not exciting so far. Last year there were some unpredictable filmmakers, who push what they are making. Now back to watching pandering garbage by Dardennes.

Joke's on you my fav directeur is Scorcese.
But that line up seems classy af all foreign directeurs.

/flick/ is back?

Temporarily.

Hot take, but the Dardennes' first few films are chronically underrated on /film/

Obviously their output the past two decades is awful

>Broker, dir: Hirokazu Kore-eda
Is this our year Koreeda bros?

/film/ should be on Yea Forums as a thread about film literature.

>Is this our year Koreeda bros?

Dudewhatdoesfamilymean man has already won, they're not gonna award a Jap twice within 4 years

How the fuck is James Gray getting into Cannes every time? That festival had lost its prestige a long time ago.

>/film/ should be on Yea Forums
That failed miserably when we tried

Thanks, user.
Yeah, so far, this lineup seems disappointing.

Gray is very popular among European critics, especially French critics.

...we need a discord

That failed miserably when we tried

>Shit threads
Then name a better place to bring up, discuss and banter about classic and obscure cinema without being called a contrarian/pseud, without trannies making quips, without normalfaggots hailing the latest hack as the next muh Kubrick.
Ah yes, (You) can't.
No we don't.

No. It's the same humanist social realism bullshit.
>Koreeda
Another hack rears his ugly head.
You might be retarded if you don't understand why he gets in when he makes a film.

>being called a contrarian/pseud, without trannies making quips, without normalfaggots hailing the latest hack as the next muh Kubrick
Why are you describing these threads?

166537490
Nice try, moron. Didn't even answer the question as expected, kek.

why do we hate David Ehrlich again? don't always agree with him sure but he seems to at least make cogent arguments instead of pure reaction blurbs and I usually learn something reading him

You might be fucking retarded. This place is full of normalfaggots and your precious is full of trannies, these threads are not an exception. So r/truefilm is the same shit as here. Maybe better since people actually try to make a post of substance and have seen what they're talking about.

>Ehrlich
What did you learn? That your IQ is in double digits?

Am filming with mickey rourke right now and and all I can say is that he's a huge asshole.
How has your day been /film/?

for instance

People here genuinely argued that Sono is a cinematic master of immense honesty who makes films about reconciliation between men and women and the exploitation of women. You're saying there are no normalfags and trannies here? Get your head out of your ass.

That's well known.

ask him about how many boxing matches did he actually win without bribing the other guy

166537958
>r/truefilm
>maybe better
LMAO. You are definitely projecting your own retardation onto me, friend. Still waiting for an answer, btw.
They're outliers. Remember when people shilled Gallo for a while? Remember EVAfag? There was even someone who shilled Iñárritu at one time. These people come and go, at least that's my impression.

Yes, that's why last few threads were full of Eggers, PTA and other normiefag shit. I'm not saying the threads didn't have any merit but they've been shit for several months now. So if somebody says they're shit, he's right and normalfags do post here. Quite a lot. Same goes for trannies.

R/true film and r/criterion are on this level. It is not my fault you have delusional perception that these threads are trannyfree normalfagfree heaven. Theya re the same shit as truefilm but without the discussion and effort put into the posts. Obscure cinema is barely discussed here and the banter is not funny. It's just people saying this sucks.

Dupeioux is at it again.
Also he's making like a film a year nowdays.
