!kino we love to bash recent Hollywood slop. But what are the critically acclaimed films and directors you can't stand because of how up in their asses they are?

Lol one of my favorites, lots of great details like the film starting and ending at the same time. Plus synecdoche is like a five fold pun for the whole movie. (The simulacrum pun was on the nose tho) What the heck does the burning house mean tho?

I watched Weekend by Godard years ago and that movie really wasn't all that good but it wasn't the worst movie I've ever seen. It was really just Maoist political stragging and was even more r-slurred logically or coherently than Do the Right Thing. However, it has one of my favorite scenes in any foreign film where the truck drivers eat their sandwiches while the other talks

There will be blood- a very surface level movie that pretends to be deeper than it really is. Can literally be summarized in one phrase- People are greedy
Network- a film with an interesting premise that develops the said premise in the least interesting possible way. Similarly the presentation is extremely slow and boring, making it a complete snoozefest. Tries to make you care about a social issue everyone's heard of a million times already and does not provide any new perspective on it
Anything by Yorgos Lanthimos, again interesting ideas which he unfortunately sacrifices in favour of presentation, in essence telling a simple story in a complicated way, instead of the other way around
Since you want to dunk on some euroslop as well, I will mention Aniara- for the third time, an interesting idea for a film, but it gets human nature and interactions fundamentally wrong, and thus instead of exploring a realistic descent of a community into chaos we get some idealized interpretation of it through some modernist-feminist perspective. Nothing about how people act in that film makes sense. There is no feeling of chaos, there is no post-apocalypse, there is just some surface level, very coordinated and sterile interpretation of such an event

is Jeanne dielman actually good or is it just whore cope?
I don't really like Schindler's list (I know it's a mass market film but I still think it's pretty pretentious in terms of framing as well as non kinocel reputation)

I know it by name and reputation only, but I'm not going to watch a 4 hours 1970s Belgian film about a housewife doing mundane stuff.

!kino do critics actually like these films?

The thing with film critics is that their tastes are incomprehensible to a normal person. Film critics cannot enjoy a movie. They have spent so much time watching every movie that every trope feels stale, every plot point bores them, every effect and set is old hat.
This leads to a form of brain poisoning called Jay from RLM, where a person is only capable of enjoying bizarre avant garde bullshit, solely because it's different and the novelty stokes the last remaining embers of joy in their burned out souls

Hard to disagree that almost every possible theme has already been explored. This is kinda why I cannot comprehend praise for movies that "say a lot about society", be it class, race, drugs, whatever moral conundrums etc. - there is nothing new to add, nothing new to say, nothing you're not barraged from the news by to pique people's interest.
The solution is to accept that and look for other things that make the medium interesting, not start watching incomprehensible shit from south european weirdo (probably) s*x pests

Some artsy fartsy film that should have been cut to 20 minutes instead of the 1hr 20. I can find some thematic purpose but it's completely overwhelmed by "omg cut already, I get it"
Comments are populated by zoomers for some reason.
It's about God self disembowling, mother earth coming out of the corpse, jerking off the corpse to give birth to man that gets fricked over repeatedly. It's part of a trilogy, the second is Din of Celestial Birds, a secular(?) Origin myth.

You are unironically a pleb if your favorite movie wasn't directed by a guy with a 20-letter-long surname who operated in some obscure country that only existed between 1918 and 1922.

Any movie where nothing
happens is trash.
Bu-b-bu-but it's a character study.
Shut up. I'm not r-slurred, I interact with people everyday.
Why do I need to view some boring fake vignette of weirdo hollywood cute twinks when I could go interact with real cute twinks and also experience nothing of interest 75% of the time. 
Give me a fricking story or frick right off.
