Can we haz a general movie thread? What did you last watch and how do you rate it? I saw that Taxi Driver finally got a new restoration after 10 years and so I rewatched it. Excellent as always, really one of the best New Hollywood movies, oozing with soul, a great soundtrack and a deeply felt psychological mock-up.
I watched this dumbass barbie movie last and I rate it 2/10 but only because the pirate website didnt steal all my crypto money for watching it.
Just make a thread about the movie, no need to make it a general. Generals killed 4chan, let's not repeat it.
>>22343 I watched "Spectre" (2019) yesterday, was 7/10. I enjoyed the cinematography but the plot itself was rather thin. Will watch the last Bond today.
>>22347 Porn killed 4chan, not generals.
>>22347 Shut up and go back, retard. Last film I watched was Ghostbusters. It's still funny, I find Sigourney Weaver more and more attractive with each passing year and the effects are still good.
>>22350 >Porn killed 4chan This. /b/ is a blacked wasteland.
>>22347 It's unnecessary. Usually threads about individual movies don't spark enough discussion to warrant own threads, I don't see anything wrong with having one thread to discuss moobies like we have general threads about music and TV shows (with X-Files being the exception, because it's just so great ;)) >>22348 What's the best Bond? I like Casino Royale, but haven't seen many.
>>22353 >What's the best Bond? I don't have a favourite, I guess I like the ones with Sean Connery the most since they have the best balance between silliness and seriousness. I mainly re-watch them nowadays for retrospective hidden Illuminati messages. :3
Greyhound - Awful. I expected the americentrism and wouldn't have minded if they at least got anything about the U-Boats right. Stuff like the commander using the radio to taunt the Allied convoi made it unintentionally hilarious. Under Sandet - Nice war drama, if you can stomach the goofy Danish language. Dû bist mîn, ich bin dîn - Short film with Middle High German script. Probably expected a bit more after it was hyped by medievalist communities but I still recommend it. There's a version on YT with English subs.
>>22362 Also "stalking the convoy" is very far from reality. The German boats took a long time to find a convoy, and then they shot their torpedoes and disappeared as fast as they could. It was suicide not to hit and run.
>>22353 >What's the best Bond? Ask ten people and you will probably get ten different answers. Most people will agree though that the Connery classics like Goldfinger and From Russia With Love, Moore era Live and Let Die and The Man With The Golden Gun, Dalton's The Living Daylights and Brosnan's Goldeneye are those to watch to get your own bearings. Lazenby's is special and interesting, but he is not a popular Bond. Brosnan's later films are absolute fucking shit. I saw Die Another Day on the big screen and even back then I didn't like it. I personally like Casino Royale, despite it having like three climaxes, but I would have daily sexual intercourse in the missionary position for the sole purpose of procreation with Eva Green, if you catch my drift. The other Craig films I can't say much about, I only saw Skyfall, and it was a bit ehhh, and I generally don't trust big budget productions after 2010.
I urge bernd to watch this one subtle and good atmosphere
>>22375 You are like half right. As long as the submarines were hidden, they had the element of surprise and could choose to enter combat whenever they felt like. Why would they trade blows with a destroyer when they could pick off cargo ships? When they entered combat, they want to make sure they are pointed perpendicular to the other ship, that was they can fire their torpedo at the broad side of the ship. Sonar was still a new technology that only the allies possessed. Only makes sense that the Uboats would try to use intelligence and other means to follow convoys around. What would the other option be, explore the Atlantic? That said, the movie tried to do too much. Blowing up a uboat with a depth charge just to show the audience what a depth charge is was a little over the top. The Germans had decoys, but they were primitive bubblers. Taunting the convoy wasn't in the book and was just made up so the movie could have a climax. Also makes no sense, why would the uboat taunt a destroyer, destroyers sink submarines (if they can catch them)... >>22362 >americentrism I haven't seen the movie, what are you referring to specifically. It isn't supposed to be Das Boot, it is based on a British book on convoys called The Good Shepherd.
>>22401 That was the basis of submarine wolfpack tactics. Uboats would spread out in an area where convoys would move through. When they spotted one, they would pull as many submarines as they could and wait for the right moment, then strike with force concentration. They would communicate with each other using radios. This worked effectively for about a year, but the allies developed counter measures. High Frequency Direction Finders could be used to spot uboat radios. Aircraft could see Uboats following a convoy, eliminating the critical element of surprise.
>>22404 1942 was the best year for Uboats, with over 1000 allied ships sunk. After that, sinks dropped dramatically, to a few hundred in 1943, then under 50 after that. This was due to allied counter measures proving too great.
>>22398 Yeah, I really need fo watch that some time
>>22348 >>22353 >>22358 >>22389 >What's the best Bond? I genuinely like Daniel Craig with Pierce Brosnan at the second place, and Sean Connery at the third with Craig the films finally got this air of seriousness and drama leaving out that humour Craig's last Band film was shit though
>>22401 >it is based on a British book on convoys called The Good Shepherd. Yeah, but there's hardly any Brit in the film except some radio voices. It focusses exclusively on heroic Tom Hanks and his black waiter.
"Project UFO" (2025) is nice. Poles have courage in out outcourage times.

Watched this and it was alright, entertaining at least, but a bit too long. Can someone explain to me why this is so incredibly overhyped?
