good taste OP
>>71851510
nice
>>71851510
Shit > the rest
I really only like there will be blood and punch drunk love (mostly because adam sandler was so surprisingly good).
TWBB
Punch Drunk Love
The Master
Magnolia other than the singing part
Boogie Nights
Inherent Vice is so incredibly bad it doesn't belong on the list
>>71852058
If you think Inherent Vice is bad you honestly have bad taste.
Read the book u pleb
TWBB
Magnolia
The Master
Punch Drunk Love
Boogie Nights
Inherent Vice
Hard 8

>you have to read the book to enjoy the movie
That's the epitome of a failed movie. I consider PTA one of the best directors of all time but it's a shit movie and the main actor is basically just a bad Jeff Lebowksi. I never thought I'd turn off a PTA movie but it was pure torture
>>71852102
I've read the book several times. It does not translate well to film. Especially by a glorified popcorn flick director like PTA.

Holy shit I can't believe I forgot hard 8. That definitely is 2nd behind TWBB
If there is ever an oscar for most pretentious filmmaker, PTA would win it every time.
His films don't look bad, but that's because he's always had Robert Elswit with him, one of the greatest directors of photography hands down. It's just that his films don't really have a whole lot to say. For the most part, it's a whole lot of nothing that looks good on screen.
>>71852102
The book is pretty good, the film is a sad excuse for an adaptation. You should get better taste.
>>71852345
Elswit didn't work on The Master, which might be his best looking movie.

>It's just that his films don't really have a whole lot to say
does a film need to have something to say to be good? you can not like him, hes not exactly a revolutionary filmmaker by any means but that's such a nothing of a criticism

>don't really have a whole lot to say
Don't understand how you could say this about The Master. Same with TWBB
>>71852264
>>71852300
How did you guys not love the entire paranoid feel and sense of not knowing what was really going on
>>71852653
This. Rest of you are incorrect.
I like Inherent Vice the more I watch it. I don't know why. Very relaxing film.
>>71851510
TWBB > Punch Drunk Love > Boogie Nights > The Master > Magnolia > Inherent Vice > Sydney
To put this into perspective, Sydney is like a 7.5/10
>>71852617
I'd move The Master to Altman tier
>>71851510
punch drunk love > boogie nights = blood > magnolia > inherent vice >>>>> the master
