What is that movie for you?

>>211423665 (OP)
Tree of Life

Solaris
Andrei Rublev

>>211423665 (OP)
Oppenheimer

Le Samourai

>>211423665 (OP)
Honestly most movies. They're just an poor form of media IMO; worse than books in your ability to fill in the gaps and worse than vidya for visual media since it lacks any interactivity.
2001 was the worst though. The middle act is okay but the end was genuinely painful.

The bird with the crystal plumage.

I love argento. But holy fuck it was boring.

>>211423665 (OP)
Imagine being this much of pseud that you actually do this

Metropolitan

For me it was Oppenheimer, Alien Resurrection, and Vertigo. I just couldn't fucking take them.

2001 for me, every boomer I know that "likes" it has to drop acid just to get through it.

>>211424110
i tried watching it and it was so boring it literally put me to sleep in the last third

>>211423665 (OP)
I love most of Kubricks works but 2001 space odyssey. One of the most boring pieces of shit I've ever watched.

>>211423665 (OP)
All the marvel movies

>>211424243
stop the cap bro infinity war and endgame are bussin fr fr

>>211423665 (OP)
Boring pile of overrated shit. Most one-shot movies are unwatchable but this one was offensively terrible

>>211423665 (OP)
None because I don't force myself to sit through movies that suck. Although I would agree with everyone saying 2001 because that was also the first thing that came to mind, but I dropped it half an hour in because literally nothing at all had happened. It's not even like the movie was just kinda starting off slowly with seemingly boring dialogue, like literally fucking nothing at all is happening, it's all just people walking down hallways and cameras panning across walls and shit, I felt like I was watching a screensaver.

>>211423856
Oppenheimer was such a fucking disappointment

>>211424243
Nobody with any credibility has called the Marvel movies "cinema" though.

>>211424336
yeah the cartoon is much better

>>211423835
>Andrei Rublev
same, fucking BORING

>>211424390
Filtered. Stick to low brow flicks like marvel movies.

>>211423856
I never even watched it because I know it's not that great

I don't even hate Nolan that much but his writing isn't great and Oppenheimer doesn't have a fantastical/interesting premise to carry it like the rest of his flicks do

>>211424482
I knew all of that going into it as well, but I went into it with the expectation that I was going to get a scene of a nuclear bomb going off in at least one Japanese city and they didn’t even deliver that.

>>211423958
internet genuinely fried peoples brains
a movie has to be really really bad for me to not be interested even a little bit.
and even if there's "lots of "stuff happening" it can be much more boring than a movie where "nothing happens"

>>211423665 (OP)
STALKER
I even like boring movies but fuck me what a slog

>>211423856
who the hell thought a movie about a glorified project managers security clearance being revoked is at all interesting?? i simply could not give a fuck about anything that happened.

This is every Kubrick cock sucker's response. Do you guys even know there are more movies out there than Kubrick directed garbage and Marvel slop?

>>211424570
i turned it off after the first minute.
>a slow zoom on a bed is a necessary part of your film?
nope, should have been left on the cutting room floor

>>211423665 (OP)
Fight Club
Master and Commander
Starship Troopers

Paris, Texas

Tokyo Story

>>211424790
Trvth, who wants to watch Wim's apologia for narcissistic misogynists such as himself, characterizing them as noble self sacrificing tragic heroes?

>>211423665 (OP)
2001 for sure, the opening in particular is deranged, literally nothing happening for like 5 minutes. Like making you watch paint dry, except presumably if you're watching paint dry you're invested in it drying so you can keep painting, so even watching paint drying is less boring.

>>211423665 (OP)
imagine not watching it on 2X or even 3X and just wasting your time instead

>>211423665 (OP)
7 samurai. Didnt even finish

>>211425877
You ever see The Magnificent Seven?

>>211425896

Ya but i didnt enjoy it as much as other westerns. Actually id rather watch 7 samurai again.

American Grafitti. I get that it's a well made film and really captures a historical moment in time but it was honestly just sort of depressing.

>>211423856
>>211424105
>>211424110
>>211424336
if this is the type of shit you immediately think of as "boring" than a movie like the seventh seal must put you in a fucking coma

>>211426488
I thought The Seventh Seal was highly overrated but still a thousand times better than that pretentious piece of shit Birdman. Oppenheimer sucked too, so did Alien Resurrection. 2001 and Vertigo are great movies.

>>211423665 (OP)
most recently Sinners
it was honestly boring

If we limit the selection to Oscar winners:

Dances with Wolves
Oppy
Marty
Annie Hall
Kramer vs Kramer

these films will have you killing yourself.

>kino meme exists for a long time
>suddenly reddit starts using it, but in english "cinema"
i refuse to use the reddit-ified version of the term

I've found it's a lot easier to sit through a movie when you're eating and browsing the internet on your phone at the same time. I can watch like 3 movies in a row like that.

>>211423665 (OP)
Dunkirk

>>211427114
>Apocalypse Now
this one for me too fell asleep like 5-6 times trying to get through it

Anything Tarkovsky

>>211423665 (OP)
The Revenant
It's beautifully shot but it was boring.
Doesn't help that i really didn't like Di caprio's performance.

>>211423665 (OP)
One of the nice things about getting old is I legit ran out of terrible old "classics" and can just watch whatever I want. Then if I feel like I need a refresher just watch a video essay about any classic movie.

>>211423665 (OP)
Any Godard film

>>211427663

I enjoyed Solaris. Its weird; but it kept my attention. Stalker was a slog though.

>>211423856
yeah I only watched it because I've seen all of Nolan's other movies and felt obligated, it was a horrible experience

>>211423860
kys

>>211427761
how many movies have you watched? I've seen over 2000 and there's still a lot of classics I've never watched

>>211423665 (OP)
drive
blade runner

>>211423860
I think this one is pretty overrated and if it hadn't been someone as ludicrously handsome as Alain Delon it would have been forgotten

>>211423665 (OP)
I just stop watching, I don't care what other people like or think or what the consensus is. I'm a higher form of life than critics, after all.

>>211429049
>I just stop watching
this....and oppenheimer was absolute dogshit

>>211423665 (OP)
Wings of Desire

>>211429049
i just leave it in the background while i do something else unless its absolutely atrocious. this way if it picks up later on i can enjoy the ending

>>211426488

I found 7th seal to be quite enjoyable

>>211427379
This is LITERALLY a perfect movie you fag

Surprised how many people didnt like oppenheimer. Im no kinosaur and i enjoyed it, though i couldnt care less about the relationship stuff

>you can't yawn watching Fippy Bippy, it's a classic masterpiece made by Tippy Stippy! It's the peak of cinema!
Okay so why did he make it a thousand boring conversations about nothing where the reader, sorry I mean watcher, is meant to "fill in the blanks no right answers" like modern "art"?
Isn't that just a slower, shorter, shittier mopecore novel? Do you just not know how to read?
Movies are a visual medium, if your visuals are boring and samey it's not worth a thousand or even one word per frame. It's just dreck. If your visuals are nonsensical and just self-referential Pavlov callbacks (Lynch), aren't you essentially making a children's show just without the grace in familiarity of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood?

>>211429364
I watch almost everything on second monitor anyways, unless and until it commands my full attention. If I hate the intro enough I pick something else immediately. If I get halfway in and feel a sense of disgust I either do one skip to three quarters to check a slice of the back half for anything good, or just skip altogether and avoid sunk cost fallacy.
I'm actually currently putting off Saloum because it might be an actual good rec and based on the intro scenes I should watch it first monitor.

>>211429485

The Maltese Falcon
>>211423860
Other than the laughably bad action scenes the movie was alright. The real issue is that plenty of later movies have taken what it did and have done it much, much better.

i never forced myself to sit through a movie i wasnt enjoying

I watched like 10 minutes of Star Wars. Absolutely dogshit

>>211423665 (OP)

Ghostbusters

kingdom of heaven.
maybe its just medieval shit thats just boring as fuck

>>211431702
It could have been faster sure, but it is historical fiction ultimately

>>211431949
i love historical, war, historical fiction, etc movies. i like just about every movie similar to it, but i just could not ever get into kingdom of heaven. ive always thought medieval europe and the crusades were some of the most boring aspects of history though

>>211423856
It was just a meme. You were supposed to leave after Barbie.

Im gonna make people mad but fucking Terminator 2.

Everyone, me included, remembers all the cool scenes like the end truck chase and Arnold shotgunning the neil patrick harris lookalike robot. But when you actual sit down and watch this movie, before you ever get to that cool action, its over 2 hours of fucking N-O-T-H-I-N-G. Holy fuck its boring

Hardcore Henry

ADHD: The Thread

>>211423665 (OP)

Raging Bull

The Godfather and Raging Bull. Literally the two most boring movies I've ever watched.

>>211432737
>he cant stare at a wall for 6 hours and be entertained the wholetime, must be ADHD
There has to be disorder that is the inverse of ADHD, where people are braindead enough to be drooling happy with anything.

The rocky movies are incredibly boring outside the actual boxing scenes.
