Earlier today, walking home, I remembered this photo and made me smile.
>>211649970She does seem like the biggest sweetheart of all of the /film/ waifus.
>>211649970Is that a torn off piece of horse hoof?
>>211650060You're thinking of Sarah Gadon
>>211650071Looks like a sea urchin, them chinese fellows sure do eat some cooky things.
>>211650120Only if you're a big black bull.
>>211649405 (OP)Arthouse means lgbt
No offense but Iโm gonna pass on that
>>211650282Sarah Gadon's husband is white
>>211650406Erm.. you're pakistani.
>>211650406Jews are not white
>>211650120wh*te women can't be wholesome/sweethearts
>>211650612Tom Green visited Pakistan once.
I would kill Bong Joon Ho. His films are terrible and won't be missed
The last thread was funny.

Lol, lmao. Hopefully Zion (rasta/film/) comes soon, you battyboys. These are coptic times, mon.
>>211651047But Bong Joon-Ho is a Gadonbro
>>211651078You will see how this shit general just dies. You have no ability to manage a thread, it's all just ass by this point, but good luck.
>>211650120>>211650406>>211650612>>211651193every day I'm more upset that India and Pakistan didn't nuke each other
>>211651293>You have no ability to manage a threadAre you the guy who wanted to be Htiler from a few thrads ago?
>>211651293>You will see how this shit general just dies. You have no ability to manage a threadHas there been a time post-waifuposting where we've had threads regularly dying well before the bump limit?
What should I watch tonight? Paris texas or the snows of kilimanjaro
>>211651293We need a professional thread manager.
>>211651663I've only seen one thread die in the time i've been here.
>>211651676Whatever you do don't watch Coalburner slop
>>211651676Watch P,T and fall in love with Nastassja Kinski.
>>211651687NTA but the only way I see this little clique working is on a platform that has registration which retains anonymity and is also administrated by a non-/film/ third party. That way it's business as usual but with the spammers gatekept. I doubt such a place exists.
>>211651914A password protected IRC server?
>>211651827How do the two films compare in terms of content? I will watch both regardless this summer so there's no need to sell me on your pretend wife.
>>211652015No idea I'm not a tech nerd
>>211651802This.
>>211651827>>211652203P*ris T*xas is Coalburner slop
>>211651914You don't even need to do all that shit, you just need to reward good posting and pressure shitposting off, but as you can see, the excessive tolerance of these faggots has allowed complete garbage posters to ruin these threads. It's about balancing memes with serious discussion, but these guys are only interested in making these threads a shitposting Discord server of subhuman IQ.
The last few threads have been beyond garbage. Why do waifutrannies have to shit everything up instead of making separate threads to discuss their overrated whores?
Awful.
>>211652415>waifuposting destroys the possibility of serious discourse in /film/>I know how to counteract this>by whining about waifuposting instead of making good posts
>>211652415They have no taste whatsoever, at least the other annoying faggots who posted here were talking about films and had an extremely distinct taste and some interesting thoughts (sometimes).
>>211652702Same logic /tv/tards used to use lol, nice job waifutranny.
>>211652405In the past I'd agree with you, but in reality most all generals on this website are undermined by their own outliers of spergs. Even something as mild-mannered as /mlb/ is ruined by one weeb and that fucking family guy schizo. Vigilance is impossible against people who spam threads as a passion.
>>211652858Your father is chinese.
I just remembered Richard Foreman died at the beginning of this year. What a legend, RIP
>>211649956Dude you missed my post earlier.
>>211653240Speaking of the chinese, watch Land of Broken Hearts (2024). It's not what you expect.
>>211652966>that fucking family guy schizo.That fucker Sethy boy's also a waifufag LOL fun fact. I hate that guy so much but it's funny how both his waifus made my top 9.
Pictured: /film/ and /hor/ joining forces to take down the /kdg/ menace.

>>211653641>film/ and /hor/ joining forcesI would cut my nuts off before allying with the general home to that tripfag that says FACT!!! after everything he says in some of the most annoyingly formatted posts ever.
Also their taste is just terrible.

>>211653562I suspect he also posts in the kpop and dragon ball generals.
>>211649405 (OP)>Which director would you like kill with a hammer?Polanski, you know why.
Also his movies are overrated as fuck.
>>211654655He's got great movies and I agree about killing pedos, but I think some other director might deserve the death penalty more.

>>211654981>CoalburnerGross
I hate every single one of the sam hyde/fish tank posters on /tv/ with every fiber of my being, they are somehow even worse than waifufags
>>211657337People were shitting on /film/ but then I checked the catalog and it's 90% franchiseslop (Star Wars, Harry Potter, etc) and Fishtank. What a worthless board.
I'm sad to say, I was filtered by Citizen Kane even after 2nd watch. It took a third for me to get it. I suffer from profound mental retardation but i'm working on it.
>>211655398Exposing that I post in /film/? Like I'm doing right now?
>>211657337Even waifufags hate them.
>>211657762To get what exactly? It's pretty straight forward.

>>211652702Waifufags are keeping this general afloat right now.
Still waiting on the Smiley Smile editionโฆ
basically how it works is in generals you need people that camp the thread basically all day to make sure it gets bumped before it can archive, but those kinds of people are pretty much always weird and autistic. It's a catch-22.
>>211660917Technically that isn't necessary on slow boards
>>211661285the last post on the last thread on page 10 of /tv/ was only an hour ago.
>>211660917Everyone posting in /film/ is weird to a degree. I hope that isn't lost on anyone here.
>>211661517If I had to guess, anyone with a genuine interest in old films beyond ego gratifications is probably weird.
>>211656181Adding to the watchlist, thanks anon, never even heard of this one.
>>211661517I'm pretty normal.
Gadonbros and Fixbros get in here!!!
>>211663520You need to get into a woodchipper feet first
>>211662792If liking modern slop is normal I want to be weird
>>211663305So am I but I'm not gonna act like I ain't weird.
>>211663520I LOVE SARAH GADON AND AMANDA FIX!

>>211665660Nice IP grabbing link
Anyone else really like this nigga? He's in a bunch of Jarmusch flicks, but he's worked with a surprisingly varied list of filmmakers, Claire Denis, Pedro Costa, Lars Von Trier, Michael Mann, Julian Schnabel, Brady Corbet, even showed up in some capeshit for 15 minutes.
>>211667206Yeah, he's the best thing about Ghost Dog and is great on Casa de lava.
>>211668007As annoying and retarded as you are, your comittment to the bit is impressive.
>>211668932We are all committed to Sarah Gadon here Gadonbro
>>211667206Was this guy in Fred the movie?
>>211649405 (OP)>Which director would you like kill with a hammer?Obviously, Turkish director Osman Nail Doฤan
Interpretive art>literary themes like plot and structure
>>211669545Isn't it all interpretative by definition?
>>211669098Nah, you might be thinking of this woman, who's in a dozen LvT flicks and also Forrest Gump, Men in Black, and Fred: The Movie.
She seems like a nice lady. She does some witty banter with Lauren Bacall in the Dogville making-of doc.
>>211669621She was an SNL cast member for a couple of years during the Adam Sandler days in the early 1990s.

I want to cease existing in any way, but am afraid of killing myself and am suspicious that death is not the end. Films for this feel.
>>211671875Don't cease existence, seize existence.
>>211671875Just be yourself, bro.
>>211657397From the repetition, I strongly suspect that it's like one or two people seething that /film/'s dead because instead of being elite and regularly dying at under 100 replies (not from lack of engagement which is caused by waifuposting, but from something else) there are now some posters who get chummy about posting their favorite actresses which makes all the elite posters so angry that they can't focus on serious engagement.
>>211661285We had a glacially slow but always bumped /film/ thread on sharty. Was it better? No, it was the same or slightly worse.
>>211673453It was way worse.
Broke my personal record and watched 4 films yesterday, all 4 thematically connected, a women in prison film, a film about a prostitute, a film about a stripper and an anthology about prostitution.
>>211674382meiko kaji marathon?
>>211674486nice try cartel, you just want to know so you can track down my letterboxd
>>211674486>a women in prison filmReform School Girls (1986)
>a film about a prostituteMagdalena Viraga (1986)
>a film about a stripperStrip-tease (1963)
>an anthology about prostitutionLe plus vieux metier du monde (1967)
Reform School Girls was a worthless exploitation flick that was supposed to be a spoof but I found nothing funny about it, to be fair I didn't see that many WiP films, three or four in total.
Magdalena Viraga I liked the most out of the four, it was slow but mesmerizing and I was engaged throughout despite formal austerity and rough 16mm.
Strip-tease was a cheapie, talky TV-tier melodrama with a cliched plot, several stripping scenes weren't very interesting.
The anthology was mostly a low-budget comedy of manners trash with horrible Italian to French dubbing (first time I ever encountered this), but the last segment directed by Godard was interesting and reminded me of Alphaville.

>>211675111>Strip-tease (1963)I wanted to watch this for her. A bummer if it's lame as a movie.
>>211675459It's perfectly watchable, but don't expect anything extraordinary. 80% of the film are melodramatic closeups straight from the 40s. Several beautiful, but short location shots. Nico looks very good and shows some skin, but can't act, can't dance and can't strip, which is diegetically weaved into the film.
>>211674382You watched Paris Is Burning four times in a row?

>>211676881>Yes, nobody else is posting because they spam the shit out of it.This inference makes absolutely no sense to me. Waifuposting is almost never the majority of a thread, there are few posts complaining about it and all of that is made even more opaque by the fact of anonymity.
>Rather it dies but be on topicNo shit. It's very clear that it's not about some objective measure of "thread health", but you just getting bootyblasted at pictures of actresses and trying to rationalize it.

Serious question. Film or literature, which is a better medium?
>>211679201 Video games but only in extremely rare occasions.
>>211679201Better at what exactly? Storytelling? Triggering emotional response? Aesthetics?
They're both beautiful, engaging, and rich in variety. Literature is better at displaying what's happening inside a character's mind. Film is better at creating a sensory experience.
I'll keep both because of their respective strenghts, and despite their respective shortcomings.
>>211679533Iโve recently read a book that gave me a rock hard erection and intense tachycardia due to being overwhelmed sensually. I thought I was going to die from a heart attack. I literally had to put the book down and do breathing exercises. No film or porno has ever done that to me.
why do french directors like bresson apply flat emotional profiles, also classical french films are obsessed with men killing themselves over love
>>211679695Meant to say sensory.
>>211679695Novelty effect, you're just overstimulatedby cinema and understimulated by literature. Also out of shape.
>>211679695I'd inquire about the book but can probably already guess what your answer is
>>211679533>Literature is better at displaying what's happening inside a character's mindthis is just wrong, film can also do this, it's just that filming such requires intense capital investment which demands making watchable films, imagine adapting proust's 'in search of lost time' faithfully, how much money would it take, what kind of production studio would ok that when profits need to be made, it's easier to write words than to film experiences but only because of money not because of some theoretical philosophical limit
We're all sensually overwhelmed here.

when will you guys stop recommending bad movies as a joke and boring movies to be pretentious and shitty collegehumor tier videos ironically as a defense mechanism when called out on it, and just recommend some good films instead?

Anyways. Saw some Petzold films recently. He's actually pretty good, one of the better modern directors currently working. Phoenix, Barbara and Afire were great. Transit, Jerichow and Undine very good.
>>211679994Amanda Fix me a $0,20 poopsmoothie with your hands
>>211679869the problem is that film is tied to literature adaptations, and whenever someone tries to make a narrative disconnected from that literacy analysis becomes impossible but that's when film would shine the most because it has a chance to develop it's own analytic criteria
>>211679949Do you not look into films before you watch them?
>>211680215>be sure to spend your time dodging spoilers while doing research on a film rather than just start watching itThis isn't the 1950s where you have to go to a drive-in theater
>>211679949Looking for reccs in /film/ is a bad idea, in fact it shows how new you are, in film watching journey I mean, not in this general. There are just too many factors in the matrix with parameters such as your personal preferences, age, education, experience, awareness, etc etc. If you want ot get serious you need to develop your own individual algorithm of looking for films to watch based on information available online, and social media sites is one of the worst ways to do it because there's too much personal bias and too much posturing.
>>211680049let me know what you think after you watch it
>>211680235based non procrastinating movie watcher
>>211680258I want to pretend this is AI but I know you actually wrote it and I just want you to know how pathetic that is.
>>211680235The trick is to research/download several movies at once 6 months ahead of time so even if there is a spoiler you won't remember it.
>>211680302this is how you end up with a gigantic backlog and choice paralysis
>>211680302My memory isn't shit enough for that sort of thing to work
>>211680258I'm not gonna do all that when I can just post slightly more incisive bait than usual and someone will give me a probably actually good rec

>>211680379>kinkFreudian slip, gadonsissy?
>>211680417Autocorrect, cuck
>>211680258That's why we're to ask newcomers questions before recommending anything. Good questions to ask are "what emotions would you like to feel?" or "what themes would you like to see?" or "what would you not like to see?"
A lot of us should have solid enough knowledge to find something worthwhile inside that criteria.
I ask those anytime someone casual asks me for recommendations. I've even given one person their new favorite movie.

white women
>>211680539You won't insult someone out of their ignorance.
>>211680547Which phone has this layout?
>>211680511Nope. Books are the niche auteur specification medium, packed with meaning and specialty. Films are innately casual, low information spectacles intended to entertain principally. Anything more or less is a maladaptation of the medium. If you need a specialist to appreciate a film, it is generally a bad film which should have been a book, or should have remained only a book.
If you cannot recommend a film as good to a general audience, it is not a good film, simple as that.
>>211680547Phonefags don't re-encode the same webm in 720p and 1080p repeatedly, and then take respectively proportional screenshots repeatedly. Did you really expect to convince me with that lie?
>>211680511>what emotions would you like to feel?Excitement, satisfaction, happiness.
>what themes would you like to see?Combat. splendor beyond imagining, women's bodies
>what would you not like to see?Marx-derived ideologies, moral relativism written by stunted insecure people, dicks
>>211680593Alright that's pretty autistic. You win kek. I'm going to sleep
>>211680572>Films are innately casual, low information spectacles intended to entertain principallyagain this is a learned association, it doesn't mean people cannot be taught to watch and appreciate 10 hour films like they spent 15 yrs in school learning to read and comprehend text, heck, inf act today schools barely teach using textbooks preferring interactive apps and videos
>>211680572>Films are innately casual, low information spectacles intended to entertain principallyagain this is a learned association, it doesn't mean people cannot be taught to watch and appreciate 10 hour films like they spent 15 yrs in school learning to read and comprehend text, heck, in fact today schools barely teach using textbooks anymore preferring interactive apps and videos instead
>>211680723>cannot be taught toI'm a human being, I can be taught almost anything. I can teach myself to make scrambled eggs with a stapler and I'm sure I'll get better at it along the way, but it will never be a spatula.
Imagine if you spent that same ten hours reading, how much more you'd learn and grow.
Film is an entertainment medium by nature of its audiovisual reliance and low information density.
This not being well-understood is also why education is failing - the abuse of interminably long oratory when it would be faster, more interesting, and more actively engaging to simply read the same thing in a fraction of the time.
Literacy, comprehension, real job skills and competence are in freefall precisely due to these "improvements".
>>211680785again with the assumptions, most people actually don't or can't learn well by reading which is why video is so popular, it's faster for you because you are in the right iq range, not so for majority of the population
>>211679996>Just by this I know you're either a complete retard or arguing in bad faith.Likely story.
>>211680854Crazy how the majority of people were able to become literate as soon as the printing press rolled around and long before film, then. And how that led to the huge explosion of patents and the industrial revolution in general.
Almost as if the average IQ at the time (which is also falling rapidly right now) and the previous general lack of literacy weren't the barriers.
>>211675771I started watching this joint in 2023 after class but fell asleep at the 30 minute mark
Is it that good, anon?
>>211680891there's a difference between reading a newspaper because you understand common language vs learning how to build a rocket by reading instead of learning by practice its common sense in the former and high iq in the latter, what we call literacy is just life experience mapped to words, it's not something you learn by reading
>>211681040>by practiceSo you are equating watching films, the most passive form of media consumption, with hands-on real-world experience.
Even reading text requires you to actively continue reading and employ your imagination as necessary and scroll or turn a page, film you just sit and receive low-density information.
Because it is best suited for entertainment, not edification.
The best informational use of film is repeating every simple concept three times with jazzy music to keep people entertained and thus paying attention, in workplace safety videos intentionally dumbed down so literally no one can escape perfectly understanding them, because that isn't something you want to learn "on the job" or rely on your lazy demoralized workers actually reading when you tell them to - if they can read at all.
>>211681085>and employ your imaginationthis exactly what i'm saying, majority of the population has limited imagination to enjoy books, video does what text can't, they see an alcoholic man fall into a ditch and they can instantly recall a hidden memory, the fact that you only need text to do this is a privilege that you should not take for granted
>>211681100Wake in Fright
>>211680547Why is Gadon such big friends with Amanda anyway, aren't they like 20 years apart in age? Or is she her relative?
>>211681152In the current day, due to becoming innately passive people drenched in film since infancy. Back before constant television and film, people adopted active mentalities out of instinct and necessity, albeit to varying degrees.
The most "official" IQ test I ever took placed me at 135.
You know the crazy coincidence, though?
I was homeschooled by reading my own textbooks, grew up rarely watching television or films really only the news or on special occasions, was only allowed to play a limited selection of videogames only certain hours on weekends, and had extremely limited/effectively no access to the internet until I was, say, around 14.
Maybe I'm just that genetically blessed.
Or maybe what I'm telling you is correct and important.
>>211681234Oh, and I almost forgot:
My main substitute source of entertainment was reading old European novels and abridged compendiums of them, because I'm from relative poverty and those were a lot of the wedding gifts my parents got to furnish the house they built - old books.
So I read for education, read and imagined for entertainment, and somehow, mysteriously, I wound up at seemingly the 98th IQ percentile, or so.
What a coincidence.
>>211681085NTA, but I wouldn't call watching films a passive form of media consumption. My thought process is quite active throughout the entire film I'm watching.
I analyze every shot on the fly. I've developed an eye for noticing difficult and impressive shots, and I appreciate those when I catch them. I even visualize the camera crew in my mind in every shot, as though I was watching the film standing behind the camera operator.
What I also think about, if I know something about it, is the contemporary societal and cultural landscape in that time and place, and how that has affected the themes in the film.
>>211681234>was only allowed to play a limited selection of videogames only certain hours on weekends, and had extremely limited/effectively no access to the internet until I was, say, around 14.I thought I was the only one who grew up exactly like this. I did however watch state funded children's tv almost daily, when it aired for like 45 minutes a day. Didn't read novels but non-fiction about topics I was interested in. A specific gun book was my favorite.
>>211681278you had to have a high iq to enjoy reading in the first place, otherwise you'd be doing sports or playing outside, i'm also from a poor background and did all the things people who don't read or play video games do--playing around all day outside with kids kilometers away from where we lived--i only started seriously reading in high school because that was the only place books were cheaply available
>autistic home schooled gun nut
not looking good
>>211681370Bresson is rolling over in his grave.
>>211681396Guns are stupid now and I wasn't home schooled.
>>211681462He's in a grave and I'm not, so who's the real winner here?
But really, I simply try to understand why I feel.
>>211681384I also did sports, and played outside all the time, in fact our mother would often just have us go outside to play all day.
When you aren't drowned in film all your life, time passes very slowly from your perspective as a child. so it's really not an either-or thing.
Three of us all grew up learning principally by reading textbooks and we all read extensively for entertainment, often the same books.
When you're homeschooled there isn't always a sporting event to go to, you sign up for some things associated with the school district, but when you finish your work at 2pm and everyone else in the neighborhood is still hearing lecture after slow lecture in a classroom, you don't really have a lot of other kids to play with.
My family isn't descended from any nobility on either side I know of, though I do know of some extremely poor and uneducated white trash in my lineage. Other than that farmers, quarriers, the occasional recent mechanic.
No authors, professors, or philosophers that I know of.
Salt of the earth. Peasantry. Common as mud.
You describe a situation where your reading was gated not by intelligence but rather accessibility - you're also acting as if cheap books are a novelty when there are libraries everywhere, you can buy old books for a dollar or a quarter at all kinds of places, at yard sales, anything.
The determining factor in reading is mostly being introduced to it and having it reinforced and encouraged or required in the first nine years of life. IQ is secondary, but that's not even what I'm telling you.
I'm telling you that not only IQ but your overall intelligence is very linked to not just the content of books you read but the mere active, regular process of reading. The benefits are diminishing past a certain point for most people, but reading less requires and more promotes a high IQ within whatever natural genetic or environmental limits
NCLB really was a disaster.

>>211681223They became very close friends during the filming of North Of Normal in which they mother and daughter. It was Amanda's first big role and Sarah became her mentor too.
>This relationship is beautifully explored and carried by both Gadon and Fix. The duo says they lived together and spent a lot of time getting to know each as actors in the industry. โThereโs a real friendship there,โ says Gadon.>Gadon, who also started her career as a child actress, is protective of young actors. โFor me, as someone who has a lot of experience [and] who was a child performer, I am very protective of young people when I work with them,โ she observes. โIโm very cognizant of the fact that theyโre young people moving in adult spaces and that theyโre taking on a lot, whether itโs tutoring at the same time as their work, or whether theyโre away from home for the first time, living away from home and trying to navigate that on top of their responsibilities professionally. When I was young, it was kind of just like, โSink or swim, figure it out.โ I try to be there for the young people that I work with because itโs really, really hard.โ>The actors add that they talked a lot about the industry and we shared experiences. โWe give each other feedback and advice,โ says Gadon>Fix returns the sentiments, admiring Gadonโs talent and professionalism. โSarah has such a great smile. Sheโs fiery and bubbly,โ she laughed. โThatโs what I first gauged, but sheโs also very professional. Iโm so honoured that I got to work with Sarah this early on in my career. Sheโs truly my mentor.โ>Gadon quickly jumps in, sharing Fixโs talent that leaps off screen. โCarly sent me one of Amandaโs auditions. Itโs the most vulnerable state: in which you audition for something. I was so blown away by her performance,โ the actor explains. โWhen I met her in person, it was the same thing: I was so impressed by her raw talent.โ

>>211657762Upon watching Citizen Kane I could no longer understand plebs that didn't like it. It just looks and sounds like a modern movie, an extremely impressive feat for 1941, something that people like Bรฉla Tarr could make these days. Cinematography, plot, dialogue, music, themes, everything is literally perfect, absolutely timeless. What exactly didn't you like?
>>211684921Bookum takes over the thread in an incredibly unfunny schizo way whenever he's here (except when he impersonated D*ngo recently, that was funny as fuck). I'll take avatarfagging any day over mountains of schizospam.
>>211685277After watching Citizen Kane, I can no longer talk to ordinary people. I can't watch a single film without feeling disgusted by its failure to meet the standard of perfection set by Citizen Kane. I can't get an erection if a woman doesn't whisper "Rosebud" into my ear.

>>211687219>>211687723>>211688284Each of our Top 10's are equally important to us on a personal level. They shouldn't exist just to live up to some arbitrary and unreachable standard set by others. My fluctuating Top 10 currently:
1. The Human Condition (1959-1961)
2. Il Decameron (1971)
3. Heaven's Gate (1980)
4. Farewell My Concubine (1993)

8. The Red and the White (1967)
9. Help Me, Eros (2007)
10. Freddy Got Fingered (2001)
Heaven's Gate is only okay, the dude thought he was Merian Cooper and John Ford and Visconti all in one, when he was really discount Spielberg.
Thunderbolt and Lightfoot - Muh Clint Eastwood Boomer flick
Deer Hunter - Bad Oscar Bait, Complete Coppola and Pollack ripoff formally, inb4 I know Apocalypse Now was the next year.
Heaven's Gate - Good, but overdone
Year of the Dragon - Boomer
The Sicilian - This and Heaven's Gate are his two best films, especially the Director's cut version.
Desperate Hours - Just a bunch of deleted scenes from Year of the Dragon trying to fit into a film. Also DeLaurentius produced, known for the abortion of Lynch's Dune.
Sunchaser - decent TV flick, kinda fun.
1. The Sicilian 4/5

>>211689412Holy shit, I never knew he killed himself. How tragic:
>Cimino passed away between June 28 and 30, 2016. The press reported that he had died peacefully surrounded by relatives, but that was the penultimate lie in the Cimino myth: the director died alone. And in Charles Eltonโs book, several friends admit that they suspect suicide.

>>211689987If Wild at Heart is "unwatchable" how come you gave it 6/10 instead of a 3 or something? Your words don't match your ratings. Same with calling Samson bad but still rating it 6/10. Lmao are you always like this?
>>211690083Wild at Heart was a genuine piece of shit, Inland Empire was a unique experience, if you like pretty colors like a child I suggest Climax from Gaspar Noe.
>>211690132Why would you watch a 3/5? You really need to find better things to do with your time then watch shitty movies.
>>211690186No, you New York jew, Inland was only unique insofar as it looked and felt like shit, and it was an incoherent mess overall. If you like rape like a PTSD victim, just watch any Zulawski movie.
>>211690132Bookum is probably the biggest schizo here. Try not to make sense of him.
>>211690254I don't know what shit feels like, but I'll take your word that your experienced in playing with it, tasting it, feeling it, etc.. Would suggest you're more susceptible to it though, which seems like some weird denial of what you truly enjoy by pretending to hate it so much if you're so experienced with it.
>>211685294The avatarfagging retard is a schizo.

I was eating out my girl's ass last night and she shit by mistake. I kinda liked the taste, but when David Lynch's Inland Empire exists I give it a 1.5/5 because it hit too close to home.
Obvious disconnect anon, like you enjoy eating ass, eating shit, obviously you wouldn't have described it as such in consecutive posts.
>Inland sucked massive ass
>Inland was only unique insofar as it looked and felt like shit,
Like the dude has some rectum fantasy going on that he clearly enjoys, and is trying to deny it via Inland Empire. I never mentioned it.
