Actually when I think about it, I am a Coen brother and a Wes Anderson emo doomer

[-] gay_king_prince_charles@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Wes Anderson holds aesthetic over content in all of his films. None of them are particularly insightful or even have interesting content. But, damn he does aesthetic really, really well.

*aesthetic or ascetic (abstaining of any indulgences) ?

aesthetic, I can't spell

Imagine being sorted into Anglophone filmmakers. Could never be me.

[-] axont@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

We got a Truffaut lad over here

[-] thethirdgracchi@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

mao-clap correct, wise

[-] Palacegalleryratio@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

I consider myself something of a Haneke habitué. (Or an Eggers enjoyer if I have to go Anglo!)

Non-binary George Miller Enjoyer

What... o no

[-] ClimateChangeAnxiety@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago

Kubrick by default, but I need to watch more of his movies.

Nolan is the one I’ve actually seen the most of probably, but most of them aren’t very good

[-] gramxi@hexbear.net 16 points 2 years ago

what about the Kaufman emos

[-] Acute_Engles@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago

I've seen a few movies before

[-] culpritus@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

Kubrick and Kurosawa mostly, then Genndy Tartakovsky

like first as tragedy, then as farce

[-] DickFuckarelli@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

I'm gender fluid except for being a Nolan Bro.

[-] cmhickman358@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

What about the Tim Burton enjoyers?

I’m going to be the biggest normie possible here and im sure ill get destroyed for saying this but Spielberg, (then Kubrick tied with Scorcese, then Nolan)

Spielberg made blockbuster films for the masses, films that were at the very least highly entertaining. He did it consistently and in a variety of different genres. Like, fuck any sort materially critical lens, because nearly all these directors fail on that end upon close inspection.

Jurassic Park? This is the greatest children’s movie of all time. It captures perfectly the perverse ambitions of a capitalist pig, if we go there.

Indiana Jones: fun as fuck, Lawrence of Arabia for the new age, maybe twice as racist (especially against those of my own ethnicity) but there isn’t a movie more emblematic of Western ethnocentrism. At least it presents itself somewhat apologetically? Man, who gives a shit, it’s fun.

Minority Report: Really entertaining scifi movie with a stylistic edge that, for some reason, never gets replicate.

Catch me if you can: I remember it being entertaining to watch

Saving Ryan’s privates: incredible cinematography and the action sequences set the tone for every war movie ever made, just give it that ffs.

Munich: israeli propaganda but for it’s time it’s more even keeled than the pure zionist propaganda you’d expect or read about. There’s at least some instances where Palestinians are treated like people, which was pretty unheard of for time. And it was an entertaining watch idgaf

He has a far more compelling filmography than the vast majority of directors and slop creators and for one of capitalist film’s biggest engines, he’s not even that problematic.

Scorcese, at the end of the day, made the same gabacool hagiography over and over again

[-] comrade_pibb@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

Kubrick tied with Scorcese

Disagree with this but otherwise good post

[-] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

I'm the dinosaur behind Spielberg

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

Sadly I'm a Nolan film bro because I've seen most of his work.

[-] OptimusSubprime@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

I'm an Alex Cox Intensenik

[-] autismdragon@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

The Russo brothers obviously! (we really need an mcu mocking emote)

[-] spacecadet@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

2001 and The Shining are enough to put Kubrick at the top for me (I am an elitist) but easy rewatchability goes to Spielberg for sure, Jurassic Park, Jaws, E.T., Indiana Jones, etc.

Nolan is by far the least impressive of the 4 but his movies are entertaining.

[-] Beetle_O_Rourke@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

Spielberg Sentimentalist gang gang

[-] callouscomic@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Snoochie Boochies

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago

Spielberg, I guess. I like some SF stuff.

[-] PoY@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 years ago

count me out, i don't want any part of this

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Joke on you, i don't watch neither of them. I guess i'm so impervious to Harry Potter that even the memetic derivatives of it don't work on me.
