Hard Eight is his worst.
The rest can be debated but I'd say his top three are TWBB, The Master, And Punch-Drunk Love.

Worst: Magnolia

Yea apparently the whole convoluted and indigestible plotline was the intention because the book's like that.
Charming film anyway, if you consider boringcore to be a genre (I do because I love memes) it's better than a lot of Coen bros boringcore
>>70051064
I don't know if I'd go so far to call it his best, but TWBB is definitely my favorite, with "The Master" running a close second.
PDL is my favorite.

Qualities of Superman:
1) Red and blue suit
2) Super Strength
3) Flight
4) From outer space
5) Hurt by Kryptonite
6) Lois Lane
Let's break down Punch-Drunk Love with Superman in mind.
First and foremost, Barry puts on his blue suit and claims he isn't sure exactly why. At about the halfway mark in the movie, he matches the suit with a red tie in exact Superman colors.
Next, it's important to note that Barry has Super Strength.
Examples:
A) He breaks a plunger with an "unbreakable" handle.
B) He punches a bathroom door off its hinges.
C) He punches a map on a concrete wall behind him, denting the wall inward and holding the map in place.
D) After the last attack from the blond brothers, Barry slams his car door closed so hard the camera itself shakes.
Now, we'll cover Superman's ability to fly.
Barry unveils a frequent flyer scam that allows him to get so many miles, he can "fly anywhere" for the rest of his life.
Oddly enough, what made me notice the Superman connection in this film turned out to be the biggest stretch in this theory - Barry has 7 Sisters. As a fan of astronomy, "7 Sisters" clicked with me as the nickname for a star cluster known as Pleiades. This put into my head the thought that Barry's origin is from outer space. His family is his sisters, and they are "The 7 Sisters"
This seems like a stretch until we consider Kryptonite. Kryptonite is a piece of Superman's home world - the only thing that can hurt, distract, weaken, annoy and bother him. Well, watch closely in any scene where Barry has to interact with his sisters. He has breakdowns, gets annoyed, becomes agitated, wants to break things - his sisters are his Kryptonite.
Finally, as we well know, Superman is connected to Lois Lane throughout the Superman story. Beyond that, all of Superman's ladies have had the initials "L.L."
Barry's love interest in Punch Drunk Love is "Lena Leonard" Once again, the L.L.
Inherent Vice was the perfect noir. does it get better than that?
>>65175945

Why doesn't he do a Lot49 adaptation? That could be great and the book isn't impossible to adapt like Gravity Rainbow or M&D
Fun fact: Jeremy Blake, the artist who created the graphics for Punch-Drunk Love, committed suicide after being harassed by Scientology for years.
>>70052247
what movement would that be? postmodernism? cause you can fit a bunch of writers under that term as well who are all better than pynchon.

That's not all to it though
It's also a homage to Altman's Popeye, and so we can see that it's really a simple love story, with a clear good guy, bad guy and the girl, that also deconstructs the traditional romance film.

well giving that that movement is still alive and relevant as it was 100 years before, you can't really title one writer as a pinnacle of it.
but the obvious answer to your question would be O.pamuk
What the fuck.

postmodernism did not exist 100 years ago and its been dead for decades now, so by saying "that movement is still alive and relevant as it was 100 years before" you've already outed yourself as a pseud. But on top of that naming that footnote as the best postmodern writer? Hawkes, Gass, Gaddis, McElroy, McCarthy, and of course Pynchon all trump him in terms of contribution to the movement and lasting legacy. I'm guessing the reason you even mentioned him is you read he won the Nobel on his Wikipedia page.

I enjoyed it a lot but it was still pretty average compared to his other stuff, maybe it's just too esoteric for me.
>>70051121
Bullshit.
His best is PDL and his worst is Boogie Nights, if you can even call it the worst since he hasn't made a bad movie. Inherent Vice is terribly underrated

enough said
and please, do enlighten me with your knowledge of the history of literature, what, if not postmodernism do we have today?
100 years was just a round number I took, and I can make an argument that you indeed had postmodernism literature in one way or another at that time.
>>70053513
I thoroughly enjoyed it. More than The Master. More than Punch-Drunk Love and Hard Eight.
It's too different from TWBB and Magnolia and Boogie Nights to compare.
Inherent Vice has an atmosphere so very unique to me. I also find nearly every line of dialogue absurdly hilarious. I recently watched Hail Caesar!, and it felt similar in a lot of ways, except I found the Coens' film to be extraordinarily dull. The humor fell flat to me, except for the Lazy Old Moon part. Even Tilda Swinton was boring in the movie, which is something I've never before experienced.
>>70053588
>I can make an argument that you indeed had postmodernism literature in one way or another at that time.
I would love to hear that argument seeing as that was the height of Modernism and its almost universally agreed postmodernism didn't begin until after WWII, so go right ahead.
>>70052954
Well, PTA said he was going to make an Adam Sandler movie and he outdid Sandler at his own game in a movie in which he's starring.
He took the elements of those movies and played them straight. The movie follows an unhinged loser who falls in love with another oddball and wrestles with how to find comfort in another person.
More than that though, I like it because there are true moments of uplift. I'm a sucker for movie schlock romance when it's done right and PDL brings out some instinct in me to root for the underdog. The scene where Barry runs back through the apartment building to kiss her at the front door always gets me. It's a movie that's got charm.
Plus Phillip Seymour Hoffman rules as a sleazy sex line owner.
The Master is quite easily his best.
>>70053856

There is no answer to that question as there is no defining literary movement today. The only thing that's come close is New Sincerity, but that died along with DFW. Now hurry up and google an answer to my question.
>>70053921
Amy Adams and PSH were phenomenal as well. One of the best acted movies this century.
>>70054122
Was none of them winning the result of the CoS pushing buttons?
>>70053811
Best PSH supporting performance: Hard Eight, Boogie Nights, or PDL?
>>70054149
I mean, it's definitely not the type of movie that the Oscars tend to reward. It took me a few viewings to really appreciate it, so I'm sure a lot of people gave up on it straight away. Plus I don't think Joaquin was too happy to play ball with the Academy. A big part of winning is doing the whole press and party tour, really sucking up to the heads. He looked unhappy just to be present at the awards that year.
>>70052954
The music was really nice, the tone was uneven but in a good way, like the moods of Barry.
I related to it a bit like being emasculated by sisters. I've also been to some of the Hawaii locations so those parts are really comforting to me.
The whole subplot with PSH and his goons is hit and miss, but the rest is so good it doesn't show up on my radar when thinking about it.
>>70054179
I take it that The Master doesn't count because he basically splits screen time with Phoenix?
I couldn't choose between Boogie Nights and Punch Drunk Love.
Him trying to kiss markymark after he shows him his red Corvette is just heartbreaking. Absolutely fantastic work.
Then again, his telephone confrontation with Barry is one of the most convincing film depictions of telephone tough-guys. It's the films highlight for me.
>>70054104
there are a bunch of writers that were close to the dada movement, but also surrealism that came a few years later, after the end of the grate war. Everything that was going against the rules of the moderna can be classified under post- modern, and you do have countless examples of that in every art form, including literature.
get of your high horse you ass you're not the only one that reads on this planet.
Magnolia was close
>>70054248
Joe Pesci didn't want an Oscar yet he got one anyway.
And then he gave the best speech of all time.
Fun Fact: The Phoenix family was actually part of the Children of God cult until Joaquin was 6 years old.
>>70054452
I mean, having Martin Scorsese in your corner is a good start.
Imo each film has been better than the last. TWBB was near flawless, The Master was a masterpiece, and for whatever reason, I like Inherent Vice even better than both
>>70054532
Yeah I get the feeling that the academy doesn't like PTA too much.
He isn't a big press guy. And he doesn't seem like a schmoozer. I don't know.
>>70054392
Wow, I couldn't agree with you more. I really only included Hard Eight in my query because that one scene with PSH is so memorable (in a relatively unmemorable film imo) for me.

I've watched it a few times and I just can't get on board. I feel like Altman did it better with The Long Goodbye. Also feels way too Coen Brothers. Something is missing.
>>70054650
PSH is the only thing I remember about Hard Eight other than Baker Hall being a cool motherfucker, but with that sad core he always has.
Anyone else find it hard to rank a director's filmography in general?
I particularly enjoyed The Master, Punch-Drunk Love, and There Will Be Blood. I liked Inherent Vice a lot too. Not sure that I like Magnolia. Boogie Nights was the most forgettable for me, although Heather Graham's tits were etched into my unconscious.
I haven't seen Hard Eight.
Ranking these films feels strange.
>>70054869
It doesn't. It's great. One thing that kills me though is the frantic music for literally 15 minutes at a time and also cutting away from tense scenes without release.
But I think that's the point. It keeps you on the edge and never lets you go.
>>70054947
Yeah, I don't do it either. It's easier with some other directors though.
>>70054791
That's funny. I thought PTA did it better than the Coens ever did. What I love about it so much is the atmosphere and this melancholy feeling of confusion, both from Doc's perspective but also a societal level of it.
I enjoyed it from start to finish and I've seen it a total of five times from start to finish. I love the acting, the music, the film grain, the paranoia, the mystery, the dialogue, everything. I did read the book and liked it very much, so I may have been more on-board than most from the get-go.
Short Cuts> Magnolia
>>70051064
All of his films are fffucking boring, the behind the scenes docs show him losing it with actors, My arse could have this scrawny little wank nugget. The day he ads transformers into any of his films is the day I'll consider waiting for it to show up on terrestrial tv. Which is fair enough.
>>70056325
Magnolia is more emotional and Tom Cruise delivers the best performance of his career.
Best thing he ever did was produce Resident Evil: Apocalypse. Stone cold.
>>70056615
I liked Extinction as well...and Afterlife, he is not a bad directing man.
Viggo alone. You do realize he is better than...
>>70056606
>more emotional = better
C'mon now, you can do better than that.
Cruise's performance was a little bombastic/overwrought for my taste, but I wouldn't call someone out for saying it's good.
Altman's film is equal parts loose and polished. The aesthetic is self-referential and mature. PTA's Magnolia is juvenile and beguiling, but by no means bad.
>>70056984
I didn't say it was better. I said it was more emotional.

No, on the contrary he was fine with it.
The best are
Blood
Master
and the funniest is
Vice.
More importantly, PTA is one of the very very few directors that quite possibly haven't made their best films yet.
He hasn't sold out.
The PTA + Greenwood collab is one for the ages.
>>70057904
Yeah but why isn't he fucking doing anything? He pulled out of Pinnoccio and now he's doing videoclips for his buddies Greenwood and Newson.
I want something like The Master but longer and with Joaquin looking even more intense, is it that much to ask?
>>70051121
>the worst is PDL
This is how i know you're a total pleb. PDL was an honest movie, well written and well shot with a great performance by Sandler.
His worst is magnolia, it was him trying to make a "great movie" and it felt very fake and without a lot of artistic integrity.

That's legit. Too many /tv/ posters don't understand how to have this kind of position on films.
The Master is his best movie, hypnotically beautiful
>>70051064
Punch Drunk Love and TWBB are his best.
>>70051501
This would be true, but Hard Eight is the one movie by him that I actually do think is pretty bad. Contrived plot, spotty acting, only a few good shots...
>>70051064
I've only seen two movies of his. There will be Blood which I loved, and Magnolia, which I thought was garbage. Should I give his other films a shot? I hated all the characters and their plot lines in Magnolia, and started fast forwarding mid way through, and just skimmed through the movie.
>>70051684
Just read GR, haven't read IV. Pretty good adaptation though? Should I read the book? I know a lot of people think it's sort of entry level.

>>70058959
>>70058959
Inherent Vice is a fun book. I feel it is very personal to Tommy P, which makes it involving for me.

PDL is awesome but it's not one of his strongest.

I think Magnolia was a bit too much. I love big emotions in movies but that film hits the same loud notes for 3 hours. Almost literally, the score never stops blaring either
I appreciate how personal it was to him at the time, but I really think he should have taken a step away from his tragedies to put things in perspective more, and not linger on the sophomoric "everybody hurts" stuff as if it's that profound to anyone outside the grieving period
>>70059104

Inherent Vice is his only watchable film.
The writing is simply too sub-standard in his other films.
Boogie Nights is the most fun but There Will Be Blood is the best.
>>70052954
Complex, relateable character, beautiful abstract imagery, ambiguous events and themes, great acting, great soundtrack, great representation of anxiety, fantastic cinematic composition, brimming with creativity, high energy, and artful display of romantic love you rarely get to see. Most great art focuses on the sad, with this not only do you get a great work of art but it's also unapologetically optimistic. One of my favorites of all time.

>>70053369
Agreed.
>>70059026
I love Pynchon, man. I love Inherent Vice. Ever since I read GR in college I wanted to see PTA be the guy to adapt Pynchon.
I don't care what people say, Inherent Vice is loyal to Pynchon and that will always allow me to enjoy it. I get why some people didn't enjoy it, but I was so happy to not be disappointed by Pynchon onscreen via PTA.
>>70054179
Boogie Nights or PDL easily. Both brilliant performances. You forgot Magnolia, but that wouldn't have one either way.
Daydreaming
>>70059880
I knew it was going to be great when I read that the Pynch gave his blessing to the script. That guy doesn't give a fuck about kissing asses, when he said that I knew it was going to be a good adaptation
>>70054594
Interesting. I think IV was good, but it lacked a lot of the emotional punch for me. It had great moments though, like the rain scene, the ending with Bigfoot, and the part where he tries to get past Bigfoot and just curls into a ball. Really I thought it was Pynchon's story that wasn't compelling enough, it was a great adaptation of a mediocre story.
>>70054594
I like The Master better than IV and TWBB, one of my all time favourites to be honest
>>70051064

>I feel like Altman did it better with The Long Goodbye. Also feels way too Coen Brothers. Something is missing.
I watched TLG when people started making the comparison but I didn't see it at all. Other than the private eye in over his head thing. The Big Labowski sort of makes sense, but that's more Pynchon's fault than PTA's, and even then, just totally different styles. The Big Labowski worked better because it was more natural, whereas IV was a lot more intellectually hard to grasp but lacked the impact.
>>70059977
PTA really hit two of the biggest themes to Pynchon: Confusion and paranoia. It feels like an authentic Pynchon experience as a film.
The tone was perfect.
None
PTA is the dictionary definition of entry level cinema. He not only steals from better directors, but he does it without any irony like Tarantino.
I am personally fine with it though. Because through PTA, all these freshmen college students will discover Robert Altman, who was the real deal. They will discover Scorsese, the most important American film director of our time, they will discover Kubrick, and the Coen Bros.
Through Altman, they will discover Renoir, through Kubrick, they will discover Ophuls, Scorsese to Fellini. Suddenly they realize PTA was just a child with no original thoughts in his head, that his films just revolve around quoting better directors while adding epic catch phrases like "I drink your milkshake!" and "Pig fuck!" Really there is no bigger clue in to how meaningless his cinema is when the only thing people discuss when mentioning his movies are 'le epic catch phrases, dude!'
You might say great artist steal, but what Picasso meant by this is that great artists are able to understand what works and manipulate it. PTA merely 'mimics'. This is why it is completely obvious who he is mimicking from film to film.

Well I do own Mason and Dixon, as well as IV, but I got IV before I saw the movie and wasn't particularly compelled to read it afterwards. I was planning on going to Mason and Dixon after I get some of my book back log cleared out.

Scorsese > PTA > Fellini

>implying Fellini ever achieved the depiction of human entropy PTA mastered with the New Years party scene in Boogie Nights
PTA threw the entirety of 8(1/2)'s masturbatory bullshit right in the garbage with a single scene.
The Master is his best work.
Hard Eight, or whatever it's called, is his "worst" -- it's not a bad movie, but it's just not that memorable and Boogie Nights was a MAJOR improvement; largely because PTA had more control on that movie.

No way, anon. You've gone too far.
I love all three of those filmmakers but Fellini has the best movies of them.

>taking the Scorsese > PTA > Fellini seriously
it's you who were duped, friend
>>70060738
All three of those guys have made great movies.
Stop being a contrarian asshole and talk clearly about why you like or don't like these directors instead of adding nothing to this thread.

which one?

You can not like PTA, but thinking Tarantino and Refn are on his level is proof that you're a fucking retard. Honestly pathetic.
