Her honestly has some of the most beautiful cinematography I've seen. There's something special about it that feels so uniquely real, warm, and nostalgic. Anyone know the lenses/camera they used to create it? I'm guessing a vintage lens set, but I have no idea which one. Also, anyone know if you could get similar lens characteristics like this with a fast f stop for under $2000?

I'm usually not a big fan of low brow/american stoner comedies, but I really like Wedding Crashers. Maybe it's just because of Owen Wilson, because I think he steals every movie he's in, but that movie is so damn funny.
Another is Burning (2018). I almost never like abstract media with ambiguous scenes, and prefer a grounded plot, but this movie somehow transcends that.

I wrote a short film script several years ago. My friend has since become a pretty up and coming director and they wanted to make the script I wrote, to add to their slate. We raised some money from mostly family and friends and then made it. It looks amazing, but for some reason I feel really hesitant to show it to anyone. Especially to all the friends and family who pitched in money to make it. I feel like maybe I’m disappointed by the result, but I can’t quite say why and I sort of dread having this disappointment confirmed bey negative reactions. Has this ever happened to anyone? What do you do if you make a short film and it is kind of a flop?
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (ETSM) is one of my favorite movies of all time. I understand the flaws in the movie, the weird concept, strange pacing that even I can admit can drag on during subsequent rematches, and occasional CGI issues on the faces that make it look more dated than it really is. But I love this movie.
I watched it for the first time with my first real girlfriend, we had been dating since freshman year of high school and ended up breaking up senior year. On the first watch through I enjoyed the amazing imagery like the bed on the beach, and the water rushing into the beach house. The themes, while I understood them didn't really hit me until another watch through.
Watching Joel work his way through spite and hate towards Clementine and realizing that within the layers of bad he was able to find good is so satisfying to watch. The final shot of the two of them running on the snow covered beach with multiple camera cuts alluding to the idea of the cycle of dating and breaking up repeating is perfect.
Its one of the few movies that I've watched that in my opinion convey loss and moving on, but still in the back of your mind having that lingering "what if" and I love it.
The last words spoken in the movie are just Clem and Joel exchanging "ok" with one another. This is prefaced with a rant about how Clem knows she'll get bored of Joel again and he's ok with that and so is she. Just to be able to relive the good for as long as it lasts.
I don't know I love it.

I know many people say the book is always better than the movie, but if you could name one movie that is better (or at least very close) to being as good as the book, what movie would that be?
For reference I have Netflix Canada, Disney+ Canada, Crave and Amazon Prime!

I've been listening to this show ever since the first episode, and one thing I like is that Ralph has knowledge of historical events and happenings in America that helps elevate discussion of films like Do The Right Thing.
The show ever since Ralph left has been so fucking awful IMO. Their discourse about films like Oppenheimer and Flower Moon makes me want to crawl my eyes out. None of them talk about the events or happenings in the film or how Scorcese and Nolan interprets the events in the film, just their stupid technical gripes and uncomfortable theatrical experiences. Ralph has literal interest in storytelling which is what this podcast has been sorely lacking for the last 3 months.
Oh, Adam doesn't give a shit about American history and Alex doesn't know anything about America? Then have someone who does. Ralph has admitted to liking history and that's what made him a great third wheel, especially when discussing films like Do The Right Thing and Chinatown. Ralph also helped elevate discussion during reviews for films like Mean Girls as both Adam and Alex had to rely on Ralph's experience with the American school system for context.
This is not even a "woke" or "SJW" complaint. I'm not calling for a BIPOC woke gender studies non-binary person to be a co-host that calls out two white men every episode. I want someone who's able to enjoy a film on a more theoretical and narrative level like Ralph, even if it's a cisgender white dude. That's why it's a bummer that Ralph left, because he knows how to challenge and defend his own thesis of film based on narratives and themes.
One of the reasons why I enjoyed the Cube trilogy episode was because Colin and April love discussing narrative and themes that provides extra context to the technical stuff that Adam and Alex pointed out. That is what's clearly missing since Ralph left.
This show seriously needs a permanent third wheel to ease off Alex and Adam IMO. Get Jenny Nicholson, or Cosmo Marcus, or even Schafrillas or Rarsten Kunquist. Atleast anyone who gives a shit about narratives and themes in storytelling beyond the technical for fuck's sake.
I know i'll get downvoted because anything YMS-related will be a circlejerk since he's kinda thin-skinned, but it's obvious as hell that this podcast took a dump in quality the moment Ralph left. Once Ralph left they should've either pick a new third wheel or rename the podcast to something else. Cumtown rebranded as The Adam Friedland Show the moment Stav left, and Chapo is currently having constant guests as their third wheel while Matt is hospitalized because they know that a Will and Felix-only show won't be as fun without Matt. Go ahead, downvote me.
/Rant over.

I think the overt and gargantuan have as right a place in horror as their antipodes; but the latter I find is usually the stuff that torments me the most.
In Lars von Trier's Antichrist (I am not sure if this is considered horror, because of the nature of definitions), there is a small transitional scene early on in the film which, even in its graphic depiction of grief and anxiety, is what you might call a light watch, pitted against the remainder of the film. As the main couple are on their way to the Eden woods, there is a blurred flurry of passing trees, against a dark and grumbling ambient droning sound, and on top of it a quietly shrieking, high-pitched sound which is best described, I think, as the auditory embodiment of the intense dread one feels when waking up from a terrible nightmare. Intermittently—twice, from, memory, because I don't dare to watch it for a third time—there is the brief and fleeting appearance of a face, Charlotte Gainsbourg's character, mouth wide open in terror, relatively small on the frame.
I know it may not sound like much, but this left some perennial pit in my stomach where the sternness of my stuff had been completely attenuated. It wasn't not just this, but the tone of the movie which had been established prior coalescing to create this premonition of terror, which is of course what the rest of the movie turns into. But despite the leg perforation and the genital mutilation and the blood ejaculation, it is the simple imagery used, the woods, the cabin, the trees, the screaming face, that unmann me the most. Not to imply that that stuff isn't deeply scarring in its own way.

What was the first trailer where they cut together a bunch of people in the movie saying the name of the movie or main character? Mank! is a great example but I just saw it for Wonka today too.

I'm looking for something that will let me geniuenly relax/or be SUPER immersive. I don't care much for a genre, I love a good stoner comedy, true crime, horror, but anything goes!
In Midnight Run (1988) when Robert De Niro's character couldn't buy bus tickets because his credit card was cancelled, he asked Charles Grodin's character if he has any money to which he sarcastically replies "a lot".

I've been noticing that when I sort by popularity, even by all time, that the movies do not come up in the order of how many people have marked them as watched. I'm not sure what else it could mean, though.

Some examples of movies that made me really laugh:
-
Spy
-
White chicks
-
Bridesmaids
-
Wet hot American summer
Any suggestion is welcome, but I would prefer movies after the year 2000

When Gone Girl came out in 2014, a critic on Saturday Review said she didn't like the film because the character of Noelle perpetuated negative stereotypes about parents of twins, "and as a mother of multiples myself, I found that offensive."
So what's the worst, least salient or relevant single point that you've ever seen be made in a movie review?
