lumpenprol Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 I think the bland middle manager you're looking for is...

goDel Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 Perhaps they should switch jobs. Bernanke directing the next Malick, and Malick doing the FED. I'm doubtful about Bernanke's results, but Malick doing the FED shouldn't be an issue at all. What does Bernanke do anyways? *painful realisation* Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/62229-the-tree-of-life/page/4/#findComment-1687142 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atop Posted November 6, 2011 Report Share Posted November 6, 2011 He looks like a Mike Judge character from King of the Hill. And yes, his shots of the sun are highly disrespectful. Fuck all of you who enjoy this film, you are lying to yourselves.

Caretstik Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 On 7/5/2011 at 2:22 AM, Smettingham Rutherford IV said: he is one of the few directors in which while watching the film i experience 100% emotion...the story is almost worthless in terms of what intangible things are expressed over the course of the film. You summed up my thoughts perfectly. I went to a cinema screening of The Thin Red Line recently and couldn't get it out of my head for weeks; it was like watching a film for the first time ever (even though I'd watched it on DVD several times before and loved it). I've still not seen Tree Of Life yet, but I'll ignore any reviews until I've seen it myself.

The story is boring and personal as fuck. The sun appears in certain shots and is always starred out like you can only see the lens flare and not the sun. Malick shows no respect for the sun so this is why I am cannot like this film. Oh yes and there are stupid cgi dinosaurs in it. The end is totally over the top metaphorical bullshit. The universe scene is the best part about the film and it was mainly created by Douglas Trumbull, a genius of visual wizardry. Now Terrence is supposedly making four films at once http://www.aintitcool.com/node/51807. Good luck with that Mr Malick. I bet all four of them are not masterpieces. I do love 'The Thin Red Line' though. oh wow! the story is "boring." oh thanks. it's "personal as fuck." wow, thx the sun is "starred out." ok, that's cool. btw, what does this mean? how does malick fail to "respect the sun?" and why does this matter? why are dinosaurs "stupid?" why is it constantly pointed out that they are "cgi"??? expln the end plz, since you know it is "totally over the top metaphorical bullshit" at least expln metaphors and their bullshitness. glad some of this piece of shit was made by a genius though! p.s. obviously a tongue in cheek post but the negative reviews of this film are some of the most convoluted, emotional, obscure and often ridiculous i've ever seen for any movie.* so if your "review" here is in any way sincere i'd love for you to take some time to flush out these ideas. in turn i promise to be less of a brat/ *recently read TWO reviews (one in the TLS, one in the guardian) claiming that because commercials use classical music and beautiful images to sell things, the tree of life is basically a commercial (the guardian stating it's a commercial "for life" omlol). no lol in the LRB, michael wood (i've read (boring) books of his published by oxford university) claimed the dinosaurs were "oversized scaly ostrich(es)." his review is adequately summarized by this priceless gem of perspicacity: The mystery about The Tree of Life is how a work that is truly terrible in so many respects can remain so weirdly interesting. just wow man, i'm gonna have to put down my new yorker, shut my ipad off, untie my brooks bros panties from my neck, and really heed this man's critical thinking! but what really takes the cake for me is the insipid journalist pose par excellence when he says the many beautiful images of nature and cosmic creation "make you admire the superior creativity of almost any screensaver." fucking exactly! this reminds me of my computer's screensavers! BOOOORING!!! *writes trite academic drivel about kafka* so yeah, alcofribas is drunkLas,d Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/62229-the-tree-of-life/page/4/#findComment-1687558 Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumpenprol Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 alcofribas I thought I always liked you. Until you used the malapropism "flush it out" instead of "flesh it out."
