I liked The Lighthouse

>>212936448 (OP)

>>212936448 (OP)

Kino machine

>>212936448 (OP)
Too many white people in his movies

>>212936448 (OP)
Did he have a falling out with Anya? Why doesn't he cast her anymore?

>>212936448 (OP)
Talentless hack. The Lighthouse was atrocious.

>>212936448 (OP)
started out great but he's turned to slop

>>212936550
she's too expensive, vs Lily Rose Depp who is probably willing to pay to be in his films (or anyone's).

>>212936448 (OP)
Why the zoomer haircut and dressing like a 12 year old TikTok influencer?
Goes without saying that he makes unwatchable movies, but something else is also seriously wrong with this retard to behave this way

>>212936659
kwab

>>212936448 (OP)
Northman and Nosferatu were both really mediocre. He is not good at handling big productions and should stick to small scale films

>>212936448 (OP)
he talks like Zack Snyder

>>212936448 (OP)
VVitch - meh
Lighthouse - Kino
Northman - meh
Nosferatu - good
Werwulf - not really excited until I see the trailer vibe

>>212936659
He knows how to pick them, lmao. Lily was so bad in Nosferatu

>>212936611
The Lighthouse was great

>The Witch
Nice language and setting. Otherwise boring and uninspired
>The Lighthouse
Carried entirely by Dafoe, Pattinson, and the semen retention meme. Kino with those elements, boring and uninspired without
>The Northman
Couldn’t tell you. Was so fucking boring and uninspired I didn’t finish it
>The Nosferatu
One of the worst horror movies I’ve ever seen.

I shan’t be watching his next flick.

>>212936800
Grim but what he deserves

>>212936742
that isn't zoomer at all
peak millennial still dressing like he did when he was in his teens. the belt sticking out like that is the big tell kek

i'm gonna take a guess and say he's fucking Johnny Depp's daughter, for a guy who is so concerned with historical accuracy and precise technical aspects in his films he sure cast one of the worst actresses of the century, but oh well, like my grandma used to say, one pussy hair can move mountains

>>212936906
Okay then, Mr fashion expert. He dresses like a teenager and it looks absolutely retarded. Better now?
I guess he's trying to warn people that his movies will be just as goofy as his clothes.

>>212936448 (OP)
i like everything he's made so far, some movies more than others but overall i'm a fan

>>212936742
those pants are way too short

>>212936742
This is just how every autistic dude who's into post punk and criterion movies dresses

>The Witch
Pure kino. 9/10 film.
>The Lighthouse
Kino, a couple of tiny missteps but absolutely carried by the atmosphere. 8.5/10.
>The Northman
An admittedly difficult film to appreciate. It took me several viewings to "get it". But now I think its pure kino. 8.5/10.
>Nosferatu
The low point. Lily Rose Depp could not carry this film although she almost popped a vein trying. Count Orloc was kino. An amazing depiction of Dracula. 6.5/10.

>>212936448 (OP)
Untalented hack who fluked out The VVitch and then got luckier by having Pattinson and Dafoe carry The Lighthouse in spite of shitty writing.

>>212936550
The Norfman was a huge flop and Anya's career was in a rut. One more major flop and she would've been done for. Her career is barely hanging on by a thread thanks solely to Mario, a Dunc cameo and the unexpected success of The Gorge despite being bottom-of-the-barrel slop

>>212936997
Millennials wore that in their teens according to this mongoloid>>212936906
Maybe in his dreams, but not in actuality.
Just look at his outfit, truly like a dangerous animal in the wild trying to warn you how toxic it is or in his case how bad his movies are

>>212937132
>uh wow babe your, like, fashion is so, like bad, mmkay

Extremely zesty opinion there, fruitcake

>>212937132
>Just look at his outfit, truly like a dangerous animal in the wild trying to warn you how toxic it is
he's wearing a black coat and black pants

>>212937164
>>212937169
>noo, don't insult my faggy friend who dresses like braindead retard
Calm down, princess. I hope he sees this.
He dresses like an idiot and his movies suck ass.

>>212937132
>back when /fa/ was good orson welles maxxing
looks great

>>212937259
take a lap

>>212936800
>I was in tears because I realized the movie wouldn't be made without casting this nepobaby, what has happened to my career

his actual thought process

>>212936550
She was originally meant to be in Nosferatu but it was on the cards from when he made The VVitch and she eventually had to drop out due to Furiosa

>>212937259
Have you told him that you want to dress him like a little barbie doll? Or is that a private fantasy for yourself?

>>212936448 (OP)
Talented guy who talks inexplicably like a valley girl. Hope he doesn’t get stuck doing too many pre-existing properties, though I did enjoy Nosferatu. Met him once, seemed nice

>>212936742
>>212937132
>>212937259
>unc crashing out because one of his own is dressing like a typical millennial and not zoomer

>>212936448 (OP)
I love his folklore and period accuracy schticks and he's the only high-profile filmmaker with access to real money who does this, so I will watch literally anything he puts out. That said, while I certainly enjoyed The Northman and Nosferatu, they both felt just slightly underwhelming compared to The VVitch and The Lighthouse, so I hope he doesn't stagnate artistically too hard. On the one hand I really love the particular niche he's carved out for himself, on the other I do wonder if writing-directing something radically out of his wheelhouse, like e.g. a musical comedy, wouldn't challenge and hone his skills. I also love that his muse is Willem Dafoe of all people and that he's going to cast in every single film he ever makes.

>>212936517
unironically one of the funniest /tv/ pasts. first time I saw Egger-oner I googled it like an idiot and am reminded of this every time I see it now

>>212936448 (OP)
That Anya is never going to sleep with him

Here’s a movie in the style of Robert.
>a hideous monster is on the prowl and there’s only one woman(married of course) who has to stop him. She gets raped by the monster multiple times and enjoys it and they both die.
Wow!!!

>Samefag trying to force his shitty meme
Embarrassing, any movies for this feel besides Eggers filmography?

People that think Nosferatu was bad because of the sex thing have never read the actual book, Dracula by Bram Stoker. You ought to, its very good and afterwards youll understand why Eggers went that route.

>>212936448 (OP)
He peaked with the lighthouse and has only gotten worse since then. I have pretty much no interest in his upcoming flick.

>>212936448 (OP)
He was great until he bent the knee to get The Northman made and now he just makes complete slop. A shame since he's the only working director that isn't trying to shove negros down his viewers' throats.

>>212937886
>to be fair you have to have a very high IQ to understand that dracula was a sex pest
Everyone already knows and knowing why shit stinks doesn't make it smell any better. And even if it did it doesn't excuse casting Depp's daughter.

>>212938038
She tried. It was an exceedingly difficult and highly physical part. I agree she failed. But there was an attempt.

>>212936448 (OP)
Why does his face look so feminine

>>212936448 (OP)
he fully proved hes a hack with nosferatu

>>212937319
I can understand doing it once but twice? At least he brought back ATJ who was very good in Nosferatu.

He needs to cast some new actors instead of recycling the same few over and over, Willem Dafoe is great but does he really need to be in all of his movies?

>>212938126
>ATJ
we dodged a bullet not having both ATJs cast in one movie, it would have been so confusing.

what's so "eggers" about him?

>>212938183
this, at least replace him with Pedro Pascal every so often, so Dafoe can go do a Disney film.

>>212936448 (OP)
A bit of a one trick pony, but he's good at what he does. The Witch will always be one of my favorites.

>>212936448 (OP)
He only make one decent film that is the witch 10 years ago and only made slop ever since then
>b..but muh lighthouse
Pseud reddit slop
>bb..but north-
Heavily shilled by a bunch of shameless shill in this board
>n-nosf-
Literal IM ACTING moment

>>212936550
She abandoned him to star in Flopiosa, and then she bogged herself and lost all her muse-like qualities (face went to shit, and her tits deflated).
