so I just saw El Topo and Holy Mountain. Where do I go from here friends? Who else makes movies with this level of well crafted symbolism?

Watch some films by Sergei Parajanov. The Color of Pomegranates is regarded as his masterpiece.
>>69720694
Well, his last movie called The Dance of Reality is pretty good

What did you make of the themes in El Topo? Was it all just an exercise in self reflexivity and an exploration for Jodorowsky's own experiences making art as some suggest? Or do you agree that the film is an allegory of the latin american experience of colonization?

I thought jodo had an ending he thought was brilliant, but forgot it, then broke the fourth wall when he couldn't remember it.

there is no real symbolism in those films, you just want it to have a deeper meaning so you fill in the blanks
in reality the films were made by drugged up hippies who wouldn't know symbolism if it fucked them in the ass

I enjoyed rainbow thief a lot more than that
Bunuel fucking sucks.

Bullshit. Bunuel made several great movies.
Los Olvidados is on par with the best neo-realist films.

Jesse Moynihan episodes of Adventure Time. JMoyns has publicly said he has used Jodorowsky as inspiration for the way he makes cartoons.
the show in general would probably appeal to Jodorowsky fans, but Jesse really brought that influence to the show.
