Does anyone know of a source of fonts like what a lot of old scifi and horror movies used in their credits and titles? It'd be much appreciated. Failing that just post your favorite examples here in this thread.

>>1954 I found a somewhat similar but better Steve Buscemi movie called "Living in Oblivion". He stars as a director trying to get one scene done but everything keeps going wrong (in multiple layers - Inception style). I don't know why but I have the feeling that blam would be interested in this movie if he hasn't seen it already.
Rewatching chungking express and fallen angels. I cant explain it. Something about the alienation, and cynicism of a culture apart. A people separated from themselves. It just makes the comfiest movies of all time. I often fall asleep with them on. What was the message? Whats he getting at?
>>2064 I gave Chungking Express a rewatch and I still need to sit through Fall Angels. Since I wasn't in Hong Kong in the 90s, I can only go based on what I read about the zeitgeist, specifically about the handover of Hong Kong to mainland China. I watched his gay and meh 1997 Happy Together movie which I totally see that aspect coming through. In Chungking Express, I probably see it most in Faye's character. But I see the "Hong Kong as a character" much more. They're ok in my books though I can appreciate the cinematography and the more "realistic" approach of the characters (in that they're all flawed in some way). I can see where you get the comfy vibes from. Maybe Wong Kar-wai just likes watching men park their toy airplanes on women's backs, plus the voyeuristic and stalker behavior of good-looking ladies.

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.

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.

Filling My Collection Anonymous 08/23/2023 (Wed) 08:24:55 Id: 94ab8d No. 1755 [Reply] >>1761
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.

Anime Movies Thread Anonymous 04/15/2022 (Fri) 20:01:03 Id: 000000 No. 1167 [Reply]
Let's start with the one anime movie that changed it all "AKIRA" and was released so long ago AKIRA was classed as animated MANGA before the word Anime surfaced, way back in 1988. The animation was before it's time. And that bike! Fuck yeah! The lighting FX. The people. The lighting people FX! I instantly forgot about Star Wars the first time I watched AKIRA, it was that good. When Tetsuo turns into an mega-amoeba I felt sorry for him, but Tetsuo played his role as the end boss villain well. Kaneda and that fucking bike though made this animated movie for me. That bike slide! The twist involving Tetsuo at the films end was kind of satisfying for me as well. Rating: 10 out of 10. Five Stars. Which is rare for me. AKIRA was recently re-released as a 4K Blu-ray disc and might be getting a live action film adaption in the future. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akira_(1988_film)

Over the years, I've checked out a number of the Lupin III movies. I most recently watched The Mystery of Mamo also known as Lupin III: Lupin vs. the Clone. That one makes absolutely no attempt to explain random shit (spoiler: Like why Mamo is a giant brain?) so I can see why it didn't really do too well with audiences. For whatever reason, though, I always find myself checking out a movie every year or so. Anyone have any favorites?

Kubrick Appreciation Thread Anonymous 10/30/2020 (Fri) 20:50:51 Id: caa326 No. 125 [Reply] >>521
Stanley Kubrick easily makes everyone's top director lists. However, he's probably most famous for 2001: A Space Odyssey and Full Metal Jacket, both sensations in their time with a massive impact on pop culture despite Kubrick's supposed niche appeal. However, his less popular movies are easily my favorites, and among cinephiles I speak to these are not unpopular opinions. A Clockwork Orange is, of course, also well known but no longer mainstream. My personal favorites, however, are Barry Lyndon and Eyes Wide Shut. The latter performed poorly and was often criticized. Barry Lyndon is the epitome of "every frame a painting", and his research on the period (RIP his Napoleon film) combined with his lighting and framing imitate art from the period perfectly. Kubrick believed in telling stories with editing and visuals, which is the essence of film-making, and I can't think of a movie that encapsulates that better than Eyes Wide Shut. I can't help but feel it did poorly because it doesn't hold your hand through the narrative. There's almost no exposition in the entire film. Combined with his untimely death and rumors the final edit was tinkered with, I think this movie was unfairly criticized. I'd encourage any anons who have not seen his movies to do so. Including his earlier works, such as Spartacus and Paths of Glory. Kubrick never made a bad film. But I imagine most of you are also Kubrick fans. Which works are your favorite, and why?

>>125 My favorite is 2001 by far. It's the first movie I ever watched and it continues to stick out in my mind as a near-perfect film. The effects, how it's shot, the editing, it just holds up so well and communicates its big ideas through experience rather than exposition, and I always feel like I've learned something new. I do mean to watch Barry Lyndon and Eyes Wide Shut at some point because they're the only ones I haven't seen yet, but I just never got around to them. I even made the mistake of watching AI. Spartacus was good, too, but Ben Hur did it better. I'm always amused by the Roman phase Hollywood went through in the 50s and 60s.
>>521 The "Roman Phase" was partially a result of Hollywood's attempt to compete with television. The best epics exists in this period because they realized the one place TV couldn't compete was on spectacle. There's plenty of non-Roman epics like Lawrence of Arabia and Cleopatra (I guess you could argue that one based on time period), but there was a wealth of Bible stories and mad Roman emperors, not to mention Shakespeare, ripe for adaptation. I still haven't seen Paths of Glory or The Killing, but I should get on with it. I can't imagine not liking them, but everyone focuses on his career post-2001, with some mentions of Lolita and Dr. Strangelove. Spartacus is almost never mentioned in the context of Kubrick himself. I think it's odd the rest are regarded as big, influential, important works directed by Kubrick and Spartacus seems to just be a big, influential, important work which happens to be directed by Kubrick. Haven't seen Ben Hur to compare, but it would be appropriate that it's better. Communists love Spartacus for some reason and love that it broke the Hollywood blacklist, but Charlton Heston is a true patriot.
RIP Leon Vitali. The man spent the last two decades caring for Kubrick's legacy and was working with Warner Brothers to remaster all of his films in 4k. Between that and the merge, who knows if we'll see quality releases of the rest. He was only 74, which is way too young these days.

So this anime is shilled a lot, and yesterday I finally was convinced to try it out. I began with the prequel movie "My conquest is the sea of stars", and I have serious issues with the last ten minutes, and nowhere else more appropriate to air them. There's a giant fleet engagement with about a million vessels taking part, as the democratic "good guys" are getting creamed they come up with a move to win. Three guys take a ship and kick everyone else off (if these ships don't need gunners to fire the guns, engineers to oversee the powerplant, marines for boarding actions, or even crewman to man radar. Then why the hell are these ships manned at all?) Then fly up to the enemy commander, come along side and sit there. The entire warzone goes quiet. Everyone to afraid to fire a single shot, EVEN MILLIONS OF KILOMETRES AWAY, for fear the commanders vessel might be struck. The "good guys" (who were getting crushed) use this confusion to sail away in peace, leaving this single vessel with three crewman alone behind enemy lines. Then that ship leaves too. That was the summary and already I bet many can see the obvious issues with this plot. 1. Coming alongside another vessel does indeed mean you probably won't be targeted by canon fire, sure, BUT that simply means you are commiting a boarding action. Pistols and sabers time. So why doesnt the "imperialistic" "badguy" commander sound repel boarders and? Or when it's clear he isn't being boarded, BOARD THE OTHER SHIP. 2. why the fuck would you let the enemy go? 3. Why would a ship fighting off boarders (which has been a common occurence for so long as naval vessels have existed I.E. all of western history) silence not just his own side, but the other side as well? 4. In a battlespace billions of kilometres wide why would anyone else give a shit? 5. Why let the enemy suicide vessel go? Why would noone take a potshot after it left the side of the commanders ship? 6. Is the entire series this monumentally retarded? Did the author even look into naval tactics from any century? 7. Will it get better? I mean what kinda ship doesn't have marines on board? How is there no procedure for dealing with a close in enemy? Traditionally you board it, kill the crew, and then cut away boarding ropes, wait til you are out of range of it exploding, and then sink the bastard. Or you take control of the enemy vessel, crew it, and keep fighting now with another ship in your flotilla. I just don't understand how that was a conundrum that has never occured in that animes world. Simple fucking shit guys.
