So future classics are current turds? This flick is the letdown of the century, kid.
>>69122113
>>69122369
You literally and unironically just do not get it.
MOTO PANECAIKU!
It will be considered his best.
>>69124010
this is gonna be dadcore
>>69122113
Absolutely a masterpiece. The Master will continue to be acclaimed as well, but Inherent Vice is so wholely entertaining, there's no way it won't gain acclaim
>postmortem cinema
>classics
>>69124048
the book is better
>>69124624
Water is wet.
>>69122113
the movie has already been forgotten. it will never be classic because it's not good. it had maybe two or three genuinely funny scenes
>>69122113
many of fox searchlight moveis are good, but as i can see... future society is going to have soo many information that they wont consider anything classic anymore, is just gonna be a bunch of old media

>focusing on "funny scenes" in a Thomas Pynchon adaptation
are you legitimately retarded?
>>69122113
My nigga. I'll defend this movie til I die.
>>69124723
>It's not good
Just because there are three or whatever laugh out loud moments doesn't mean it's not funny/fun. Martin Short as a coked up Doctor? Awesome. Josh Brolin as a tough on the outside to cover up his inert sexual confusion detective? Great. Joaquin Phoenix doing his thing? Amazing. The performances are great, the set design is phenomenal, there's comedy from the script to physical jests, every bit of the story is fun in one way or another. Part of the fun is, and I'll quote what I've posted before:
"People complain that the plot is "supposed to confusing" because the main character is confused. This isn't really true though, because the general story is not that confusing, but there are all these side things attached, all connected somehow. I found myself, when trying to decipher the plot, picking out one thing and trying to understand how it fit into the story. Then I realized, THAT is the part of the character the story is trying to emulate, not just general confusion. Doc was high and paranoid, drawing connections that aren't there. It's fun to speculate for yourself and, while understanding overall what's happening, figure what actually connects and what is just extraneous happenings made to look like they matter."
Beyond the plot, it has so much depth. No other film has made me want to break out a note pad and just observe. For example, look at the use of tears, or crying, in the film. Little things like that stand out as odd and I love that this films begs for you to figure them all out.
That's what I mean by "wholely entertaining". It's got comedy, mystery, romance, it's just so much fun to watch, while still having depth. Who knows, maybe that's thanks to Pyncheon, not PTA, but either way, that doesn't take away from the film.

>Bonnie And Clyde

Yeah.
>>69124968
>nigga
yep, hello underage. the movie was boring, incoherent and convoluted shit
>hurr durr that was the point
it was shit and the flick will be forgotten. it was a fucking snooze fest. you only like it so you can pretend to be mentally superior over rational people who see it for the garbage that it is. so whatever, continue tipping your fedora at me. don't bother responding i won't read it
>>69124085
DUN... DUN DUN... DUN DUN... DUN DUN... DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN DUN...
>>69124984
i think you need to put down the crack pipe. you're giving the flick way too much credit
>>69125047
that's a whole lot of projecting and conjecture for one post. I don't pretend to be anything. Keep grasping at straws.
>>69124984
>For example, look at the use of tears, or crying, in the film.
Something I thought was kind of funny, and gets funnier upon rewatches, is this crying tone that Shasta Fay has when she's talking to Doc in the very beginning, and Doc just looking confused as fuck.
>Something she must have picked up in acting school
>>69125047
Try someplace like >>>tumblr.
Take your 'intelligence' with you and don't look back
>>69122113
I literally felt bad pirating the movie and went into cineplex odeon's streaming site and paid my $5.
>>69124968
I'll defend it too. It deserves it.
>>69125047
Not him, read my lengthy post above. It negates your criticism of "confusing for the sake of being confusing" and "boring" and "people only pretend to like it"
Notice the "arguments" against the movie. Then look at the analysis of the people who enjoy it. Here's one that was posted here a while ago
"But it really isn't the point to simply buy in to the plot that the characters assume, the film is a classic postmodern narrative, like many of Jacques Rivette's mystery films, that both suggests a plot and denies it in a skepticism of meta-narrative answers.
So what does that mean for this film? Inherent Vice is the exploration of a conspiracy that ended the hippie revolution, but also one skeptical of it, that wonders if it isn't a series of loosely connected events used as a defeatist explanation, or meta-narrative, to the hippie downfall. Was free love and free living really crushed by some quasi-supernatural force of infinite Right Wing reach? Or was the failure of the love generation its - excuse me for this - inherent vice? What the film shows us is a counterculture that is fractured and embroiled in internal conflict - the various gangs, drug dealers and dope fiends all out to score for themselves and fuck each other over - and stagnant hedonism - the children of LSD and marijuana becoming washed up heroin addicts and speed freaks.
Was a conspiracy even needed to take this 'revolution' down? Who knows. Doc doesn't. To suggest a final answer would be just another false meta-narrative to contextualize history."
I understand why some would dislike the movie, although I believe that if you go into it looking to have fun, it's immensely enjoyable. But to imply that it's bad is completely wrong
>>69125047
>was boring, incoherent and convoluted shit
he's never read Thomas Pynchon
>>69124883
This
>>69125059
Lol no
>>69125094
If you think that Pyncheon didn't mean to do every single one of those things, you're incorrect. He was very hands on with the film as well. So perhaps praising PTA as a genius for the film would be giving him too much credit, although I believe his decision to just let the camera sit and the story unfold was perfect. But, regardless of directors intent, I don't think that's giving the film itself too much credit at all.
I can only hope so

Because you're a pussy that can't handle his opinions being challenged or even put up for discussion. Keep on living in a hugbox with your head in the sand.
>>69124488
Don't know if I'd consider it a classic but it DEFINITELY did not deserve the critical panning it got. If McCarthy had used a pseudonym it would have gotten much better reviews.
>>69124958
what a classic guy
>>69122369
>So future classics are current turds
That's usually the way it works
>>69125306
The Watchmen has a better chance than this and that's not saying much
>>69125306
Why's Batman giving head to Supe?
>>69122369
>>69125687
Actually, that's very, very rarely the case
>>69125787
Even if what you're saying is true, Inherent Vice is by no means a turd now. Maybe in that first anon's eyes, and the film didn't exactly gain popularity, but the majority of reviews for it are positive.
>>69124085
Pulp Fiction > Jackie Brown > Reservoir Dogs > Basterds > Kill Bill > Django > H8ful > Death Proof
If you disagree you are literally a massive pleb
Is Inherent Vice a good movie to watch stoned? The only PTA movie I really enjoyed was TWBB and even that was iffy for me. inb4 dude weed lmao
>>69125859
Indeed, I agree. The reception wasn't as violently positive as the ones for previous PTA films, but it was an all-around warm positivity. I liked it very much, it's a fully equipped filmmaker tackling hard material to be adapted and doing a nice job of it. I'd say 8/10

Not sure if cinema is kill or these are just terrible picks
my man got that dad summer cut
>>69126005
Cinema isn't kill, but yes, none of them is a masterpiece. We're living in a period- this century, in a way- of very few of them.
But of course, a classic doesn't need to be superior, great filmmaking.
>>69126005
Lets see your picks mister contrarian hipster
>>69126001
Confirmed. People who have the need of informing others they smoke weed are massive plebs.

Children of Men

No Country for Old Men
There will be blood
A Prophet
>>69125955
You're probably right form most plebs POV.
Pulp Fiction>Django Unchained>Reservoir Dogs>Inglourious Basterds>Kill Bill 1> Kill Bill 2>The Hateful Eight> Jackie Brown>Jackie Brown> My Best Friend's Birthday
>>69122113
>implying
Shit was lame.
POST MODERNISM IS DEAD. GET OVER IT. IT WAS NEVER GOOD.
>>69126118
I'm not a contrarian or a hipster. I don't see a lot of obscure movies but there have to be ones better than the ones posted. See >>69126162 for my picks
>>69126171
You are all kinds of retarded. Django above Jackie Brown and Dogs? Not liking Jackie Brown is the easiest way to spot a pleb.
>>69126208
I've seen sitcoms talking about how College bros love There will be blood, and No country for old me.
We know these were instant classics, they have enough action to make them bad ass. they're like High Brow Segal Action flicks. If it wasn't for the action in all of those movies, cept for There Wil Be Blood....
>>69125167
*tips fedora*
again you're giving it too much credit. the hippy movement was fostered and influenced by soviet kgb agents to try and degrade our society. i fucking hate hippies, i hate anything about them that doesn't show them as the cancer that killed our country
>>69126208
Sorry I just assume the hundreds of postshere that do nothing but bitch about other people's opinions without giving any of their own are being contrarian. Fair enough.
>>69122113
Does anyone feel like it's harder for cult classics to be born? There's just too much content. People don't explore either. If it's not on Netflix people don't care. There's no swapping CDs or VHSes or anything of the sort anymore, not even flash drives as far as I've seen. Ratings also drive what they watch, no one goes out of their niche.
>>69126251
I know, just Jackie Brown was so forgettable. It's just sort of a lot of shit packed in, without that real Tarantino Style. It was nice, but not the 'pulp' style he usually does, or skirts around, or flips or what he normally does.
To like Jackie Brown is to ignore the real style of the director in the first place. It's a good movie, but it's more just to appease the plebs that he can do a 'normal' movie. fuck off, I can watch netflix for that.
>>69126280
Calm down, /pol/, strokes can be bad for you
>>69122113
no.
>>69126280
for real go see a psychiatrist
>>69126432
because he's posting it ironically it makes it okay :)
>>69126325
Yeah. And stuff that gets branded with cult status are just box office failures like Dredd.
Elephant will be regarded as one of the best films of the 21st century.
already starting.

I liked the part where the white boy was sucking samuel l jacksons pecker...
>>69126550
No one will ever call le shaky camera melty sun man slasher flick a classic.
Sorry.
>>69126472
well a small box office is usually why things become "cult" and not just "classic", but yeah. Plenty of well liked movies bomb all the time, it doesn't make them cult classics though.
>>69125166
This is how you know it's a pleb movie.
>>69126301
Oh, fuck off.
Your tastes in movies is just bad.
>>69122113
It will be remembered as a Big Lebowski wannabe and nothing more
>>69125524
>critical panning
audiences hated it too. In fact, /tv/ is the only place where I see it lauded
The only people I've seen enjoy Inherent Vice were wanna-be hipsters.
I guess I'll give it another shot.
>>69127087
But it was a faithful adaptation of a good book
I'm not even memeing this will be what people show their kids in 30 years as what they watched
>>69124723
>he thinks it's a comedy
Not surprised you didn't get.
>>69125167
Dude, no one will give a shit about what the hippies did. If that's what the movie has going for it, it will be forgotten, it's so irrelevant to society and the grand scheme of things. Where are the universal themes?

Stoker
ExMachina
Bronson
LOTR for sure
>>69125524
>>69124488
This movie was terrible. The script was the biggest problem. I'm pretty sure there was a line like "truth has no temperature." Characters spoke in fucking monologues. Cameron Diaz was fucking atrocious.

you're a bad movie

whatever man. PTA can make stinkers, and he did with this. i paid to see it twice because i wanted to get it and like it but it's just not good
Don't fukin @ me
>>69129862
I don't agree with you in the slightest, but the thing about directors like PTA is that even their failures are of far more interest and value than the successes of other filmmakers.

Bingo! Auteurism is real, folks. Not that IV is a failure :^)
>>69129148
Hello rebbit. Still praising Que Tarantino, si?
The first act is the fall of Man to nature. The second act is Man's faith in technology. The third act is Man's downfall to himself.
Lots of memeing in this thread.
I fully expect pic related to catch on eventually.

100% this. As soon as I got home from the theater I thought "this is going to be one of those movies they critically hail as GOAT in the not-so-near future"
like another anon said, his second best since Pulp Fiction
>>69125393
definite cult classic
