It's been a while since I've seen it but I enjoyed Revolver it made sense to me it reminds me a little of the nuances we had in Shutter Island that I liked to.
It's more than just a movie to me and it was the movie that got me into Chess so holds a special place in my heart.

I really liked The Departed but the ending scene in the elevator was sensational
unless I can get neuralyzer and rewatch The Departed and Interstellar again it's never going to be the same sadly.
When people were dubbing and cutting all the woke bullshit from movies I felt that was the time to stop watching them. Same with video games which is why I don't play them anymore.

That would unironically make a good movie. The Smiths trying to escape Scientology as a horror/thriller.
The Departed is peak kino. Ridiculous cast, fun dialogue, interesting plot.
Didn't know what to expect with Interstellar cause I was out of the loop with pop culture at the time so was even more mind blowing seeing it without knowing.
Yeh can't help notice it now. Even Dune+Dune2 it was obvious how the good guys were obviously muslims while bad guys were whites. Still liked the movie tho. At least the muslims will become the bad guys next movie.

I've not seen the Dune movies but it seems interesting and I honestly prefer reading the books over watching the movies, if it wasn't for the fact I'm juggling like 15 already maybe I'd start it.
I really enjoyed the Alex Rider books as Anthony Horowitz was my favourite author growing up but after hearing what a travesty the movie was I've kind of lost all interest in watching film adaptations to books it was the same with Dragon Ball Evolution, Eragon, The Golden Compass (actually watched in cinema was terrible),Alita, Akira, Percy Jackson, The Hobbit, Lord of the Flies (Enjoyed the book as a child), Life of Pi.
Most of these I didn't even bother with watching the film adaptation but reading them was mostly positive.
I'm probably a little biased as I struggle to follow movies without subtitles, listening isn't my forte
.
I went to interstellar with 0 expectations didn't even watch the trailer, my friend used to watch the trailers and if he said it looks good and I liked the sound of it I'd tag along but I'm soo glad I watched it in all its 70mm glory one of the best decisions ever same with Dark Knight.
Anyways I've had fun reliving these memories. Thank you

Kinda reminds me how loveless by my bloody valentine is in the top 10 for best albums all-time on RYM. It's a good album but it's really not a landmark album compared to other stuff in the top 10. It's in the same category of being good enough and appealing to a large demographic that by nature of averages it kinda just finds its way to the top. Pretentious moment here
but I do think on what that means in regards to the artistic merit of a piece of art. Is it better to be liked by many or hated and loved?
Jump in the discussion.

Compared to top 10 maybe but for shoegaze it is the defining album of the genre. It shouldnt be a top tier album though. Good but not a masterpiece. Hated and loved is also a better metric than popularity in almost any instance.

What the heck are you talking about? Loveless is the worst possible album you could have picked. There are no other albums that sound like loveless. Like, it's completely its own thing. Like, I can't think of a single other album that is so completely its own thing. I also have a really hard time believing there are people who listen to it and think it's just “good”.

Putting the Shawshank redemption, The Godfather and TDK at the top is infinitely more respectable than having something like Jeanne Dielmann which topped the The sight and sound poll critic list. Something which "real cinephiles" defended tooth and nail.
At least, I can tell the guys who enthusiastically voted TDK and Shawshank most likely watched the films, genuinely enjoyed them and as a result voted for them. Unlike, a certain crowd who watch certain films because they top certain lists and then heap them with praise in order to fit in.

The Sight & Sound poll was another example of identity politics and tokenism taking precedence after 2012 when the last list released. Letterboxd used to be where the best taste and cinephiles rated movies until the Eternal September we call the Twitter exodus. Now most of the top movies of all time on there are capeshit, identity-related films, and overrated foreign films. Everyone wants to analyze art analytically like a science now and focus on looking at top lists, making charts of their favorite movies, and seeeing what the consensus is but they'll never take the time to rewatch their favorites or to genuinely enjoy them.
Paul Schrader and Armond White even disliked the Jeanne Dielmann inclusion for this reason:

God, Roma was so boring and pointless. I've got a cinephile friend, so he loved it, but good god. It's such a pointless film.

I compared it with Belfast because both directors attempted something similar with different approaches.
Cuáron grew up in Roma, an upper-middle class neighborhood in Mexico City. So in the film he's supposed to be one of the kids but he's telling a fictional story about his maid. A lot “class guilt” displayed.
In Belfast we on the other hand we follow the kid's (Kenneth Brannagh) story. He grows up in a good nurtured loving family during “The Troubles”, his childhood shelters him from what's going on around until it becomes too evident and his parents decide to leave. I felt that one had a soul unlike “Roma”.

Reservoir dogs, Pulp fiction and Inglourious basterds are brilliant films, and stand out as some of the best kinos of the recent era with high energy and great dialogue all through the film.
Once upon a time was one of my favourites, because of the slow build up, tense atmosphere and the final release. Really good, although I sometimes wonder if that's just recency bias.
I fricking hated Django. I found it annoying, although it's probably a fine film. Maybe it's because I'm not American so I don't give a darn about the slavery element. Hateful eight was great though.
I recently watched Death Proof and I was surprised that I liked it, because everybody seems to hate it. It's not very interesting but the Tarantino elements push it from meh into good. All his films have a certain tempo and energy that just make them interesting, even if the film is otherwise unremarkable.
I remember not liking Kill Bill although I don't remember why. Maybe I should rewatch it. I remember frick all about what happens in Jackie Brown and whether I liked it. The only thing I remember is de Niro shooting that foid, which was funny.
