What does "kino" mean exactly? Keep hearing it and google brings no answers

german word for cinema

Kino is the german word for movie, film, cinema
>>

Polish as well

On here it is used as a synonym for "good"

It's greek and means "movement" you fucks.

It was originally used to refer to pure, non-jewish cinematic art like The Passion of the Christ or Upstream Color, but was appropriated by memers.

The proper use is to refer to pure cinematic art.
>>
You must be pretty bad at googling. I found the meaning pretty easily.
>>
>>69239009
So, film for the sake of art rather than money? I can get behind that.
>>
>>69238781

It's German for cinema. Retards around this place toss it around like it has some sort of higher meaning. Which of course it does not.

Imagine the following conversation.
"How's that beer taste?"
"It's pure Pivo anon".
Wouldn't you think that person is retarded? Man I hate this place.

I dunno why it's so popular.

>>69239459
No, it also requires being very rhythmic, purely based in vision and sound, and not stage-like, centered on dialogue and plot.

Contrast French new wave to actually good cinema like Tarkovsky, Ozu, Parajanov etc. To see what I mean.

Or more modern, think Scorsese, Tarantino etc. contrasted with Mel Gibson or Shane Carruth.

Mel Gibson was an example of kino in this case, I genuinely think he is one of the most talented directors alive.

you can put all motion pictures into two general categories: narrative and non-narrative,

Kinography blends both of these in equal amounts.

The term "Absolute kinography" was originally coined by Dziga Vertov

ITT: Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong wrong

I don't know how many times I've explained the actual answer, it never seems to stick.

>The 'kino' meme started with this copypasta using the term 'absolute kinography', which, surprisingly, is not bullshit:
http://archive.4plebs.org/tv/thread/48559834/#48560486
>It comes from an interview with Soviet director Dziga Vertov recorded in this book:
http://www.iupress.indiana.edu/product_info.php?products_id=25801
>It's translated as "Man With a Movie Camera, Absolute Kinography, and Radio-Eye" if you want to google to confirm.

>The original russian rendered is aбcoлютнoгo языкa кинo, literally 'absolute language of cinema'

>The interview in question was with the famous newspaper Pravda, but it wasn't printed in Russian until much later.
>It was, however, printed in a Ukrainian art journal with the title 'Liuzina z kinoaparatom: absoliutnyi kinopis i radio-oko", so the term 'absolute kinography' as a way to describe a type of movie dates back to 1929

>Basically the real(est) defenition of 'kinography' is film which engenders a complete divorce from the language of literature and conversation in favor of cinematic 'language'

That kino means 'cinema' in some european languages is pure coincidence rooted in the Greek word 'kinein'; on /tv/ 'kino' is just a contraction of the original meme 'absolute kinography'

A "Kino", named by Eli Wallace after Russian word "kino" ("кинo") meaning "a movie", is a sleek, softball-sized, self-levitating orb designed and built in mass quantities by the Ancients for use on the starship Destiny. Kinos contain a vast variety of sensors, able to scan atmospheric makeup and record audio and visual input. The device's movement can be controlled by the user, using either remotes or control consoles on the ship, but it is also capable of self-guidance.

Kino means cinema in my language. Not cinema as an art, literally a place with a big screen that plays movies. It's so funny when you see these hipsters here trying to sound smart and find higher meaning in something.

KINO IS A MEME. ANYONE WHO USES IT UNIRONICALLY HERE HAS BEEN MEMED HARD. IT HAS NO MEANING BESIDES CINEMA. IF YOU SAY A MOVIE IS KINO, YOU ARE BASICALLY SAYING THAT MOVIE IS A BIG SCREEN WITH LOUD SPEAKERS AND SEATS.

KINO IS THE SAME AS ANY OTHER MEME BUZZWORD ON THIS BOARD WHERE NEWFAGS FALL FOR IT LIKE "SS+GOMAD" ON /fit/, "THE VIRGIN WALK" ON /r9k/, or 90% OF POSTS ON /pol/.
SOMEONE POSTS A MEME, A SUBINTELLIGENT PERSON THINKS IT IS A FACT AND USES IT REGULARLY

You are wrong. I speak russian and place where you watch films is called кинoтeaтp which reads like kinotheater, while кинo which reads like kino means exactly film or movie. You can say let's go to kino but it will only be a short version of kinotheater.
