    Nah, you're wrong. I was offhandedly citing a foreign director like that somehow qualifies you over anything. You can quibble with my pick - reiterates what a dweeb you are. Like the point is you're an insecure chump lol

    Clearly, you keep posting your dreadful trailers lls.

    LOL surrrrrrrre. More like I'm purposefully playing the bad guy and pummeling you for the no-talent wannabee that you are.

    guilty! s/o @Woody and anyone else. Fact is you want to portray yourself as some cultivated thoughtful cineaste and you're just pretentious. game set match.

    pls don't lol

    Exactly. You want it both ways. You know more than me and are sooo much more knowledgeable. Except when we have ACTUAL discussions, not d-ck measuring, you fail. Make another list! Cite another foreign director. Doesn't mean you understand s--- - I've demonstrated countless times I can back up my opinions; you haven't and now you're back pedaling.

    And like.... dude I graduated from film school like 8 years ago? I don't think about what films I saw there or what was discussed lol - it's not central to this AT ALL besides the fact you're insecure. Like, sorry?

    I mean, ok. So "of all time" is just a meaningless rhetorical phrase in this case lol.

    No. I'm not stuck in anything. I don't follow canon, or fall in line with anything. Hard swing and a miss here.

    Who? I know people in the film world who think very highly of it, and Mann, but I'd like to know who you're speaking with that says that and why. Back up your opinion instead of implying "true [unknown] cineastes" know it's a great accomplishment.

    But you said you do? Do I need to quote you back to you? And I mean fine - plenty of people would choose Blue Velvet as Lynch's #1 but ok.

    You can @ @Twan if you like to get his co-sign on Serious Man, I liked it too. But picking it as the pinnacle of their "oeuvre" just reeks of trying to be #hot imo. It's a credit to their deep bench, I suppose. (#actually Hudsucker Proxy rly inspires me!)

    I just find this baffling. TV is telling way more interesting stories than film today, The return anthology series offers a wealthy of storytelling opportunities film is usually constrained from telling, the rise of streaming. I know film is still a very varied medium so it's difficult to generalize but it terms of zeitgeist - and not being dusty - I think the needle is being moved by other platforms. It's ultimately an economic question as well as I'm sure you're aware but the window for the traditional cinematic experience is absolutely shrinking.
