Hello team!
Hope you’ve got your flat shoes on, because our red carpet is a stiletto-free zone. Some people don’t even own a full pair of shoes, you know? Aaanyway, congratulations to Ken Loach on his Palme d’Or win for I, Daniel Blake. Check your Cannes-cred with this list of every Palme d’Or nominee since 1946 and get a few good ones in before blockbuster season hits us with its overblown, 180-minute mallet. Or perhaps just check out Shane Black’s latest noir action comedy for something with a little more kiss kiss, bang bang.
Happy watching,

i put INNOCENCE in my favorites because it's one of my favorite films
but for a response that's not a tautology, i find it incredibly fascinating. it's more well-rounded than its predecessor, effectively fleshing out its characters and the world they live in. i was really taken in by its visuals, too - the contrast between the 3D environments and 2D character models really emphasizes the depersonalization i imagine would be experienced in such a future.

Everyone goes 'round a little empty inside
Take a breath, look around
Swallow your pride for now
Nothing lasts, life goes on
Full of surprises
You'll be faced with problems
Of all shapes and sizes
You're going to have to make
A few compromises for now
But only for now
Only for now
Only for now
Only for now
For now we're healthy
For now we're employed
For now we're happy
If not overjoyed
And we'll accept the things
We cannot avoid, for now, for now
For now, for now
But only for now
Only for now
Only for now
Only for now
Only for now
For now there's life
Only for now
For now there's love

Amazing how this thing got to be. Maybe not on the surface, but still. Arriving from some loose place to there up high. Really makes one wonder. Am I too accepting of their influence? Numb goes the mind craving them answers. Treason to oneself is hard to see. Hard that it be, it's now and here.

I rate movies by determining how 'good' they are and nothing more. When I like movies, however, I do it for a whole host of reasons and it is irrelevant to quality.

Do any of you feel like you can't enjoy straight up comedy films anymore?
I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a film that had the outright intention of trying to make me laugh. I don't even know if that's just my brand of humour being unavailable in entertainment... or I'm a miserable pile of garbage not worthy of polishing Will Ferrell's boots.
>>70104772
THEY CAME TOGETHER is one of the funniest movies i've ever seen and it came out last year, but in general yeah i agree

>>70104838
>THEY CAME TOGETHER is one of the funniest movies i've ever seen
:^\
>>70104968
it tickled my funny bone :^)
>>70104772
Its hard saying it without coming across as an elitist, but I'd say my humor has just 'advanced' over the years, and its harder and harder to make me laugh and the things that do make me laugh are so abstract its hard to explain the joke. So, yeah, I can relate.
Its also worth noting that most comedies pander to the teenage crowd and has humor no better than a family guy episode.
I'd suggest watching them with friends.

>>70104838
Thanks for the suggestion but I really don't like Paul Rudd. He reminds me of a human weasel.
>>70104998
I get this. I find humour in some of the most depressing stuff in film now, things that as an adult feels real and not a distant possibility. Four Lions is the only film I've seen this year that I laughed at, and even that was pretty dark. Watching with friends does make it a lot easier as most films seem to become retarded that way.
>>70105379
>I really don't like Paul Rudd
you may be the only person alive with this opinion

>/mu/ is turning on the embryo meme
what do
Anything where it's not an absolute technical nightmare is automatically 2 stars or above, unless I HATE the movie despite the fact that the camera is pointed at the actors most of the time.
From there it's pretty much anything goes, as long as the movie is good in whatever way.
>>70092999
Exactly
I LOVE Mars Attacks, for example, but it really isn't all that great all things considered
Makes it hard to think of an exact star rating at the end of the movie if I have to weigh just enjoying it and how good I actually thought it was differently, but I think that's the way to go.
