Looks like based Terrance has lost it. These last two movies have been awful.

he hasn't become 'bad'.
it's just that he's transcended 'good'.
>>64323092
He's defiantly become more difficult. Wouldn't say bad though. To the wonder was amazing.
"Christian Bale and Natalie Portman both said that they spent more days on the voice-over work for the movie than they did on the actual shooting of the film"
>>64323092
Malick paints poetry with his films, any artist or creative individual can see this. good or bad becomes a moot binary way to describe any film that aspires to be a work of art rather than just tell a story for hoots and hollers.
>>64324634
Malick's last two fall short of being "art," then.
>>64325010
Malick's last two films are the evolution of film as visual poetry.
>>64325023
If anything, Malick's last two are a survey in devolution.
>>64325043
>survey
What?
>>64325071
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/survey
>>64325111
I know what it means, but you apparently don't.
>>64325137
There are multiple definitions, friend. I commend you for trying to learn a new language, though.
>>64325164
How can two films be a "survey" in anything?
>>64325190
Glad you asked—check definitions six and seven. Most of the definitions under the "noun" umbrella work, but the aforementioned are most pertinent.
>>64325265
Can you link me to sentences that talk about films being a "survey" of something?
This guy can't even critically think about Malick films let alone understand the existential subtext
>>64325305
There's a sentence directly under the sixth definition:
>The course is a survey of Italian painting.
Simply replace "painting" with "filmography," and voila.
In case further reinforcement is needed, here are several Google results:

>>64325355
>existential subtext
Agreed—the existential themes are extremely subtle and require a trained eye to delineate.
>>64325385
You still haven't answered the question. How can a film be a "survey" of anything?
>>64325460
As cited beforehand, a survey can be a thorough examination of a given element. Thus, Malick's last two flicks (at best) are a survey of devolution of visual poetry.
>>64325514
Those are courses. Do you think films are courses?
>>64325545
Think more abstractly: "examination" is not exclusively synonymous to "course."
>>64325584
Can you cite examples of this definition? Because all the previous examples were of courses.
>>64323092
>>64325605
I searched, but it's too common of an expression to find an example without quotes. I've definitely seen it before, though; and, regardless, intuition should tell you it's a grammatically correct sentence.
>>64325641
I doubt anyone is so empathetic.
>>64325742
>I've definitely seen it before, though; and, regardless, intuition should tell you it's a grammatically correct sentence.
Why do you rely on intuition? Are you too stupid to reason analytically?
its like pottery
>>64325784
I've reasoned analytically, as shown through various examples of the usage of "survey" as a noun. However, you apparently cannot accept the usage of a word without having an explicit example. Unfortunately, you seem to lack both intuition and analysis (the two, of course, go hand in hand). My condolences.
>>64325846
>(the two, of course, go hand in hand)
You are obviously an unintelligent person who resorts to invoking "intuition" whenever you are proved wrong using analytical reasoning and logic. I hope you understand that you were wrong and playing the intuition card does not mean you were using the analytical method correctly. Happy New Year.
>>64325943
Why are you using the "analytical method" for art?
>>64325943
You shouldn't be so intimidated by novel prose. You've learned a new way to use "survey"—consider it a New Year's gift.
Not being able to find a variation of a sentence specifically contrasting with your views on a word (one word out of millions and millions) with a dozen definitions isn't exactly being "proven wrong."

What did you like about the film?
>>64326317
I have no reason to. Just letting you know you're gonna have a hard time in life if you short-circuit every time you don't like something.
>>64326362
>I have no reason to.
then stop replying, pretenshit
>>64326388
I have no reason to stop you from frothing at the mouth. That doesn't mean I have no reason to not reply. Your alter-ego would probably mention something about a lack of analytic skills here.

It was an unfortunate series.
>>64326618
funny how people chide George Lucas for repeatedly saying he wants to do experimental films and doesn't go through with it, yet when Malick does just that, creates beautiful films with experimental flourishes, he's equally chided.
>>64326721
I actually really enjoy Malick's work, and I also believe he's far too aloof and autonomous to let public disapproval compromise his vision, unlike Lucas.
>>64326759
>>64326797
>>64326721

>>64326835

likewise. i relate more to Knight of Cups than To the Wonder, yet still admire the craftsmanship and artistry behind the effort, even if it's not my cup of tea.

Spoken like a true Malickian fairy
Both Malick and PTA have lost it and become too self-indulgent.
It's the end of cinema.
Why can't people admit he hasn't made a good film since TTRL? Hop off his dick already. His films have become a parody of themselves.
>>64329495
Even TTRL was a joke. He hasn't done anything good since Days of Heaven.
