It's the French word for movie theater, and I *think* the german word for cinema or film or some shit. People used to use it to describe (mostly international) films that were considered the pinnacle of movie making.
On here people just use it as a meme buzzword and it has lost all meaning now.

why are people only using it when referring to capeshit?
There was some chart floating around for a couple weeks that separated movies out into different categories and 'kino' was the ultra bullshit artistic movie word. I guess that means 'best' to some people.

people are being facetious and youre too dumb to even fall for it
>>68875849

oh ok, well I've really only seen it in capeshit threads
hope this clears it up
Kino is a fluid, multifaceted and symbolic word. I wouldn't expect a normie with pleb tastes to even begin to understand the true meaning of kino.

Kino means garbage that people think is awesome, like avantgarde. So it's an ironic/troll saying something is Kino.

Kino is a meme.
So when people say it's a meme movie, they're saying it's kino.
