>mfw the film might be shlock or it might be great, but it doesn't matter in the end because it's my favorite movie/film/flick/vignette/kino whatever happens
grading films (or any work of art) with numbers or letters is extremely retarded

Hes a pleb pretending to be patrician m8
leave him alone and just go with the thread
>>62750936
That's a mighty specific thread premise, OP.
>>62750936
Most people liked Lost in Translation.
It's not really that great though. People just like it cause feelings.
there are a number of movies virgins call shit juts because they can't relate to it
>>62751319
>FEELINGS ARE GAY LMAO
>>62750936
People with taste rate it 10
People with no taste won't see it anyway. they would give up ten minutes in due to sheer intellectual exhaustion
>>62751548
That's not what I'm implying. Feelings are just fine, but just because a certain film makes you feel more than others doesn't speak to the quality of that film. LiT isn't one of the great films of cinema, but people relate to it so it gets a lot of love.
>>62751638
>but just because a certain film makes you feel more than others doesn't speak to the quality of that film
Literally what? Successfully evoking emotion is not to be considered a quality? You shitting?
>>62751690
Not him but there's technical aspects as well
but Ive always thought Lost in Translation looked great
>>62751690
Not really. I know people who cried during Guardians of the Galaxy. Good for them, but that doesn't say anything about the film's quality, unless you're gauging it from the perspective of a movie exec.
>>62751771
I disagree with this.
>>62751981
I'll take that as an admission of defeat.
>>62752021
>Makes argument
>Someone disagrees
>Calls it victory
>>62752093
You forgot:
>offers no counter-argument
In the context of a debate, that makes him the loser by default. Thanks for playing. Lost in Translation is mediocre.
>>62750936
>and wannabe patrician
I'd bet cash that you barely even read.
Cash.

A patrician would say Lost in Translation is just a crossover version of In the Mood for Love.
>>62752193
A real patrician would be able to aprecciate both films.
They are not even thematically similar.
>>62752150
I declare you a loser. Counter-argument?
>>62750936
>two bored out of their mind people decide to hook up to be boring together
Wow what a great movie.
>>62752457
>They are not even thematically similar.
Not that anon but I'd seriously call your critical faculty into question after a line this completely off.
The whole dynamic of the emotional tryst are almost perfectly mirrored in one another - are you some kind of idiot?
>>62751108
The real Christiane F. was a lot hotter, actually.
>>62752582
He's right though. They are completely different in regards to subject matter.
If you think they're the same, you missed they point of both.
>>62752539
See
>>62752021
>>62752457
I appeciate both, and agree with you -they're not that similar to warrant such a comparison. However, both films are overrated by their fanbase.
>>62751690
You do know that different people relate to different things right?
>>62752763
I disagree.
Nothing really sticks to the mind in this shallow attempt at portraying "alienation." Yes, Bill Murray is cool and witty, Scarlett Johansson is gorgeous, the music is good and Tokyo looks otherworldly, but you can't hang your movie on these surface pleasures without any real ideas or vision and have it succeed as much more than banal eye candy; designer alienation, ennui chic™.
When it comes to painting such themes with actual emotional or intellectual heft, let's just say that Coppola is no Antonioni or Kar-Wai (two of her self-professed influences). This is a superficially pretty but achingly dull and empty film with nothing of substance to express, and I can only suppose its mass appeal rests largely on the shimmering city, mediocre songs and lead actors it captures, all of which impart a certain built-in pathos mostly separate from the text of the film itself.
This is ITMFL for plebs. Nobody actually likes this film, they just like to be seen liking it.
>>62752907
>love all three

This.
>>62752629
>If you think they're the same, you missed they point of both.
Both films are ruminations on the passages of social "translation" that are demanded at points in adult life - both revolve around women who are lost at the formative/performative crossroads and must allay their apprehensions about the future with their current responsibilities to really ask themselves if this slowly translated identity that they are working toward is even worth it. One woman chooses to abandon her responsibilities and one chooses to embrace them. Even the plot lines are remarkably similar. The two men in each respective film are really nothing more than proxys to help each of the women come to their respective realistations. Both films are really about the two women.
It's crazy that we are even having this conversation, how can you not see how similar they are?
>>62753009
10/10 ruse
you got me good
>>62752969
Then you truly aren't watching film correctly. Keep consuming for those numbers you disgusting anti intellect
>>62752907
What do you do for a living?
>>62751268
Great movie
>>62753102
They're not lovers., you fool.
>>62753083
He's quite obviously an italian chef.
>>62752907
I like all three movies but would admit that only ITMFL is a great film. I see them all as distinct from one another, and would say that LiT is a pretty standard romance dressed up in hipster clothes.
>>62751084
Cloud atlas was utter shit though.
>>62753045
>told
>has nothing
Figures.
>>62750936
Obvious one.
>>62752193
I wonder if you're the guy who keeps jabbering about "In the Mood for Love" every single time "Lost in Translation" gets brought up.
Firstly: Yes, they're not entirely dissimilar.
Secondly: No, "LiT" is not "just a crossover version of [ItMfL].
>>62753134
Hmmmm, I would've guessed underachieving gas station attendant.
>>62753009
Top kek
Now compare l'avventura with lit and you won the wannabe patrician bingo
>>62753243
Alien overlords. Did you even watch it?
>>62752193
A patrician would say Coppola improved ITMFL, though it obviously wasn't her original idea.
>>62753243
Their spouses were cheating on them with each other, and they were trying to see how they could do that to them.
Man you people a literal retards.
>>62753288
A patrician knows lost in translation is babby's first attempt at a serious film, and it still falls short. It's empty and vapid.
Also, anything Godard.
>>62753288
A patrician wouldn't praise a fraud like Sofia Coppola you cinematic troglodyte.
>>62753206
Not the same guy, but clearly they're not entirely dissimilar. It's obvious to anyone who isn't a laughable pleb retard in denial mode.
I doubt it's a "crossover" work, though.
>>62753179
ayyy
btw. a good movie considering how much could've gone wrong taking into account its subject and genre.

Fuck you and your copypasta.
jokes on you, i never rate a film 10/10
>>62753288
Lmao Lost in Translation is absolute garbage. The very poor's man "Her".
>>62753447
Must be horrible not being passionate about your favourite films
>>62752907
You can tell this guy probably visits /r/AsianMasculinity
>>62752907
100% correct save for the image
Change patrician to(or add) L'avventura and you're set.
>>62753459
>Lmao Lost in Translation is absolute garbage. The very poor's man "Her".
i always chuckle when someone try to compare these two, you guys are fucking retards,.
>>62752907
Has nobody else noticed the copypasta refers to MBV as mediocre?
>>62753459
>When someone tries to convince you Her is anything above 7/10
>>62753459
Her is sci fi, so it automatically goes into the fedora reddit trashbin.
>>62753459
They have nothing in common except the fact that they are beloved by redditors and wannabe patricians. Oh, and the fact that they are shit obviously.
>>62753511
They are compared because Lost in Translation is about Sofia Coppola's relationship with Spike Jonze and the relationship between Joaquin and Rooney Tunes in Her is also meant to depict their relationship.
>>62753555
fuck that 6/10
What happened? Did your spamming of Man of Steel to Watchmen to Blackhat stop getting replies?

This is why /tv/ will always be a joke compared to a board like /lit/. And /lit/ is a toilet to begin with.
Kids here don't know how to respond to legitimate conversation on their medium. When it's their turn to steer the conversation and bring their own lateral thinking to the table they realise that they have little if any and throw out a desperate meme to keep from falling apart.
>>62750936
I guess every 13 year old over on leddit is pretty patrician then
>>62753619
>>>62753278 (You)
Fuck you, i dont want to spent my time building a good response for someone as arrogant and retarded as you.
>>62754118
It's not that you won't - but rather that behind all the meme talk you simply don't know how.
And a hint for future reference when you are saving face like this again: don't try to call anon "retarded" when you are at a complete loss of any real response. This is only going to be icing on the cake for them.

this tbqh desu family
>>62754373
Its not your interpretation of both films (interpretation that say more about you than about the films),its the way you say it that prevents me to want to argue with you,
Lit is about alienation and loneliness, those themes are present in itmfl, but are not the central point of the film. Do you compare every film where a woman and a man find each other in a unusual place with Itmfl?
>>62755072
>its the way you say it that prevents me to want to argue with you
You literally go on to argue with me in the very same post. How are you this lacking in basic cognizance?
And if we really want to talk about telling posts that speak volumes about the poster you should ask yourself why you are still clinging to this woefully transparent "I don't want to spend my time building a response" routine when you are still finding time to respond regardless.
You won't give me a detailed response because you can't. I know it. You know it.
Cope with your situation and hide thread.
>>62755321
stop reading only what you wanna read,
>>62755478
Seriously. Hide thread.
You have nothing. This is pointless.

That's not Superman Returns.
>>62752965
It's very good but not 10/10. None of Jarmusch's movies are 10/10, but he's the real flickmaster of movie-making. Lots of style, very little substance beyond general boomerism. Still, the master of flicks. Tarantino isn't good enough to eat his shit.
I like anime!
>>62750936
That movie is shit though, only beta autist virgin weebo faggots love it.
