So you want to buy some physical media. No, you don't? You just want to pirate? That's understandable; >Why would I want to spend money on movies when piracy is free? The big studios don't deserve money for the garbage they put out, but we are living in a golden age of physical releases, and they need to pay for sourcing and restoring films somehow. Consider the following: <4k Blu-rays can capture most of the detail of 35mm film <UHD releases are becoming fairly common <Streaming has become dominant, and rights to old B-movie distribution is cheap if they handle the restoration. <Film prints are only going to get rarer and rarer as they are lost, destroyed, or deteriorate Preserving these releases is important, and the opportunity will not last forever. >Where can I buy from? There are many common outlets to purchase these releases from, and each has its own niche. Criterion - focuses on high-brow and arthouse: https://www.criterion.com/ Vinegar Syndrome - mostly restoring grimy B-movies and smut: https://vinegarsyndrome.com/ Shout Factory - mostly TV show box sets and B-movies with occasional foreign releases: https://www.shoutfactory.com/ Arrow - UK label that might have overlapping releases with the others (because they get the Euro distribution rights) and has a good mix of both B-movies and older mainstream releases: https://www.arrowvideo.com/ Kino Lorber - has a lot of independent releases including newer titles: https://www.kinolorber.com/

>>1855 As for the grating side of internet humor, it's easier to explain Scary Movie's place in it first. Scary Movie would spawn the litany of "X Movie" genre parodies. Genre parodies are a hotbed of LOL SO RANDOM humor. For example, Alvin and the Chipmunks having rabies in Disaster Movie. The Chipmunks shouldn't be there, but they are for no reason other than that it's funny. This stems from the approach taken by Scary Movie 3, but that stems from the approach taken by Scary Movie (which itself stems from Don't Be a Menace While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood, but that's outside of the scope of this). Scary Movie takes events and tropes from millennia horror and adds an element of lowbrow comedy to them to parody their existence. For example, the dick through the gay nigger's ear is a parody of a scene in Scream 2 where a knife is used instead. This is intentional because it's funny for the character who has been established as practically openly gay to be killed by putting his ear to a gloryhole where he's mindfucked and it parodies how retarded the kill it's referencing is. If this was made in a later "X Movie" the dick would be green and there would be a two minute sequence of Shrek killing the guy with it. LOL SO RANDOM humor would eventually transform into "ironic" and "post-ironic" humor. Now Shrek is not only the one doing it, the Albanian national anthem is playing and it's bitcrushed to near unrecognizability. Now for the place of millennia horror in grating internet humor, referential humor. Millenia horror helped popularize referential humor through the previously mentioned meta nature as characters would mention past horror movies by name or talk about how they were going through a horror movie trope. Scream is a major player in this, especially with its running "How to Survive a Horror Movie/Trilogy/Sequel/Reboot" gag. This is a soft form of breaking the fourth wall as both the audience and the characters understand that they're watching a movie and in a movie respectively yet can't consciously act on it due to, again, the necessity of a plot. Referential humor used to be something only nerds would do, but the explosion in popularity of the medium as films became cheaper to distribute and wealth grew led to the popularization of references. If you had never watched Nightmare on Elm Street, you would still understand the reference to it in Scream because of cultural osmosis. If you had never watched The Good Doctor, you would be able to understand the "I am a real doctor!" meme through cultural osmosis. For an older and likely more relatable example, remember how often "The cake is a lie!" was spoken by people who had never played Portal but used as a means of group identification. Rather than keep the reference within the community of the property or community of the genre of the property, it's exposed to the outside and used by the outside in place of humor. Whoever uses the line doesn't really get the joke. He's just repeating it. Scream begins with referential humor. It's funny that someone who "likes scary movies," mixes up Michael Meyers and Jason Voorhees. The audience laughs at the joke despite not being able to do so themselves. "Do you like scary movies?" is now engrained into their psyches. They'll repeat it to their friends, and both of them will think it's funny because its context is now as a movie reference rather than satire. The line has lost its context and is now funny because something well known said it. Like LOL SO RANDOM humor, referential humor evolved into the grating "ironic" and "post ironic" humor of the present day. Winnie the Pooh is dancing in a corner of the Backrooms next to a white Monster can while Caramelldansen plays. Wojack has fifty variants because his degeneration into "feels guy" would eventually become "feelings guy". Pepe is a common Twitch emote.
>Watch Last Tango in Paris >Find out after the fact that Bernardo Bertolucci, the director, was considered a "protégé of Pier Paolo Pasolini" That sums up my review of the movie right there.
I finally sat through "In the Soup". Only hardcore Steve Buscemi fans need apply. Interestingly, though, it has cameos from some famous people: Sam Rockwell, Jim Jarmusch, hell, the "little man" is Mike Anderson from Twin Peaks!

I'd like to ask, what are the best Kung Fu / Martial Arts movies that you know of? Also what are the best Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Bruce Lee movies?
>>1931 >what are the best Kung Fu / Martial Arts movies that you know of? That's a really broad question and a little hard to answer. My personal ones by region: >HK/Taiwan One Armed Boxer & Master of the Flying Guillotine, Deadly Silver Spear, the One Armed Swordsman movies (in fact I've yet to find anything starring Jimmy Wang Yu that I dislike), Invincible Armor, Eagles Claw, Shaolin Invincible Sticks, Flying Guillotine, Born Invincible, The two original Bronzemen movies for the Bronzemen sections of those movies, Shaolin Red Master, Secret Shaolin Kung Fu. That's probably a good start. I could probably come up with some more. >Western Blood Sport, Big Trouble in Little China, Mortal Kombat (90s version), the "Ninja Trilogy are not "good" films but they're really fun, Double Dragon is the Jojolion of western martial arts movies (lots of buildup but nothing happens by the end) but I'm fond of it, The Last Dragon >Nip Basically any of the serious samurai movies by Kurosawa (such as Seven Samurai, Rashomon, Yojimbo, Sanjuro, Ran, Kagemusha, Throne of Blood) or similar films by other directors (Harakiri, Onibaba, the 2 Lady Snowblood movies, the Zatoichi movies, Samurai Rebellion, etc.) Probably not exactly what you're asking about. >Jackie Chan I'm really not much of a fan of Jackie Chan, mostly because his martial arts movies all seem to share my least favorite trope of the "comedy introduction" where the protagonist spends the first 25-30 minutes acting like a fucktard before the evil white haired guy comes out and kills everyone and he's forced to get serious. Chans best movies are from his Police Story era. I'd say start with those. >Jet Li In all honesty I've not had the opportunity to see a Jet Li movie all the way through so I can't comment. The ones I have seen are the post Hollywood ones too so I don't have a complete picture anyway. I think both of us should check out his Hong Kong era films.

Do you have screenshot from a movie that you want identified? What about some movie that you saw long ago but don't remember the name? This is the thread for you. >I'll start I'm trying to remember the name of this one movie that I use to watch as a kid. The plot involved this kid looking for a magic ring that shoots a blue death laser so that he can defeat this evil wizard who also has death laser powers. On his journey he meets this lady that turns into a a spider person that tries to eat him and this band of cyclopes that either wants to marry or eat his traveling companion. Also the evil wizard keeps killing dwarves throughout the movie.

I'm trying to find a movie from the late 80s to early/mid 90s about cyborgs. All I remember about the movie is that at the beginning a guy's head transforms into a canon and shoots another guy. It looks like something that Charles Band might have made but even if that's true it hardly narrows it down.
im trying to remember a movie i saw were a guy falls asleep at a restaurant and dreams hes part of the three stooges
I need to identify 80's, probably early 90's adventure movie. Main male character and his female follower have been traveling the world to find some treasure. They went Rapa Nui (Easter Island) as well. One screamer-like scene I can remember clearly. Male dove to crashed cargo plane, and then he has been pulling the front window the half of dead pilot body came up from the inside. I should notice that isn't 2005 Into the Blue movie.

Besides doing a movie with "literally me" characters is not that hard, giving him credibility was a big fucking mistake and now he's also butchering superhero comics when he's not getting a blowjob on his many podcasts that only his cattle remember. I guess Bruce Willis was in the right on how to make funny shit and bruised his ego.
I tried watching Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back. None of the original actors came back apart from the shifu guy. I dropped it ten minutes in. Not a movie, but I also tried reading Naked Lunch by William S. Burroughs to compare it to the movie. It was nothing but chapter upon chapter painstakingly describing gay orgies and men doing a shit ton of heroin. I couldn't finish it. David Cronenberg did a service to the source novel that it didn't deserve.
>>914 Gandolfini completely prevented him from watching the Sopranos because Gandolfini put all of his anger at his life, the position of Italians in society, etcetera into his performance. He watched it for the first time during filming for the movie, hence the subpar acting. Michael, the kid, had never seen his father act this way in real life, so he was playing a man who he had never met with the face of his dad. It would be like an actor's son playing an actor after his death, but the son never knew the actor was a well known active homosexual.

Thread for discussing (and recommending) movies that fit the Halloween spirit. Not necessarily horror films (many of them aren't scary at all), but which embody the spirit of the holiday. Hallmarks of October movie marathons. Seeing these on the shelf at Blockbuster was as much a sign of Halloween as Santa in the department store window was a sign of Christmas. Tim Burton's early films and aesthetic are intrinsically tied to this subgenre, but the selection is much larger than that. Share your favorites.

>>1381 I got mine from Walmart in the early 90's. As per IMDb >The Ghostface mask was first developed for novelty stores during the Halloween season between 1991 and 1992 by Fun World employee Brigitte Sleiertin as part of a series titled "Fantastic Faces", the mask itself known as "The Peanut-Eyed Ghost". The final design was approved by Fun World Vice President Allan Geller. Wes Craven claimed to have originally found the mask, but later clarified that he had misremembered the event, and that it was producer Marianne Maddalena who discovered it. She found it while inside a house during location scouting for the film and brought it to the attention of Wes Craven, who set about trying to obtain the rights to use it. Fun World licensing director R.J. Torbert joined Fun World in 1996 and was given the task of naming the mask prior to its film debut, deciding on "GhostFace" with the blessing of Fun World owners Stanley and Allan Geller. Torbert felt it looked like a "ghost in pain", believing it to be a unique design. The Ghostface design and title are owned by Fun World. So it wasn't a prop made specifically for the movie but rather a repurposed mass marketed Halloween mask. Which is sort of neat given the "first" modern slasher antagonist's iconic mask is also a mass marketed Halloween mask instead of a unique prop. Although in that case it was slightly altered.
WHASSUUUUUP?
>>1379 I like the original Scream and Scary Movie. Scream 2 was bad, and the series took a nosedive from there. If you like the original Scream, watch Urban Legend. As far as I know, the director for it was passed up after the studio secured Craven for Scream.

Filling My Collection Anonymous 08/23/2023 (Wed) 08:24:55 Id: 94ab8d No. 1755 [Reply]
Hey movie-watchers, I have a small question for you. I am pretty much movie-illiterate, I know a few blockbusters but have never been much of a fan of the medium. However, due to being isolated for quite a long while for my work in a remote area, I have started gaining appreciation for it and wanted to get a decent collection of movies before I head out into the boonies again. What are, in your opinion, the greatest, best, funniest, saddest and so on so forth movies ever produced? The kind of stuff that have significant cultural impact not only on the medium, but on society as well. Or even just your favorite movies, that works too. I don't really care about the genre, be it comedy, animation, tragedy, documentary, experimental, you name it.
>>1755 Anything from Adam Sandler, especially Jack and Jill and Pixels, is highly recommended. Jokes aside, can you name some movies you've seen that you really enjoyed? Because opinions on movies are as vast as the number of films themselves, so it'd be easier to narrow down some recommendations. Plus it wouldn't make sense to rehash all the most commonly seen movies if you've gone through them.
>>1761 >Because opinions on movies are as vast as the number of films themselves That is exactly the issue. I have usually just watched whatever was on the big or small screens, but even if I end up liking the movie I never really bothered saving it for later and just realized how much of an issue that is. I mostly like comedy as a genre, but I am open to pretty much anything. I know I am definitely not high-brow, but some of my favorite movies include: >The Blues Brothers >Monsters, Inc. >The Terminal >The BRAVO NOLAN Trilogy >The Naked Gun Trilogy >Lord of War >Pretty much anything with Mel Brooks at the helm >Africa Addio (don't know if it counts as a movie, but it IS shot more like one than a documentary) And then a bunch of movies from my region that have mixed quality, but are relevant for the cultural literacy of where I come from, so they don't really count in the grand scheme of things. >Adam Sandler Unpopular opinion, but while he may be a mediocre or opportunistic actor, I believe that he must genuinely be a really nice guy to hang around with and he gets away with making abhorrent movies solely because he knows so many people in and out of the industry.
