Anyone else watch old movies because you like how the world looked like in the past?
i like watching knowing everyone involved in the movie is dead
Assuming that's Tokyo Story in the thumbnail (haven't seen it), one of the actresses, Kyoko Kagawa, is still alive. (So is Vera Miles, fun fact.)
See
>Kyoko Kagawa, is still alive
Ayako Wakao, Mariko Okada are still alive and over 90yo
and so are Masahiro Shinoda and Shima Iwashita, another combo of jap director married to a beautiful actress
I do too anon something about the world of the past just seems realer and bigger too.
No screens and smartphones.
And no diversity. Say what you want, but there's something fascinating watching an old British film where everyone's white. Kinda surreal even
Also people dressed way better and there were no plastic products everywhere
>people dressed way better
Nothing signals to me how far we have fallen as much as this. You can put it down to standards but I see more the economic impact of stagnant wages and increased taxation. People used to be able to afford to dress well in natural fibers. Now even if you can afford to dress somewhat well you have to hunt specialty outlets and pay a surcharge for natural fibers. Most people can't and so being in public is to be in a sea of t-shirts and stretchy pants. It's as demoralizing as israelite architecture. I make a conscious effort to dress "up" every time I leave the house but I am as seemingly alone in this as I was being a maskless man in a sea of mask cucks.
What's even worse is that people look at you like you are the weirdo if you dress nicely. I'm telling you, by the end of this decade we will all be wearing muumuus
>people look at you like you are the weirdo if you dress nicely.
I had an epiphany during covid-mania. I don't care what mask cucks think about anything.
It's got nothing to do with money. People back then had literally one suit/ dress pants combo and a few undershirts. People today have whole wardrobes of nothing but t-shirts. Supposedly, it's about comfort, but I think that's a meme.
>It's got nothing to do with money.
Yes it does. But it's more that dudes are stupid to pay $20+ for a t-shirt when they can go to a thrift store and get a really nice button up shirt for $1.50-$5.00. Most of my nicer shit in my wardrobe, including suits/sport coats, all came from thrift stores or ebay. I scored a vintage bespoke Burberry suit off ebay for $65. All I had to have altered was the sleeves and a bit of the jacket waist taken in. No shit $1K+ suit for less than $100 all in. My favorite lamb's wool sport coat cost me $5. My hitlercore/east german stasi leather jacket cost me $40.
>vintage bespoke Burberry
>bragging about his retro clothing collection
Wanker
>People used to be able to afford to dress well in natural fibers
No they fricking didn’t. They had one nice suit that could be used only for church/special occasions because of t was expensive. Most of the time your average person just wore the same worn out clothes you kept patching up and repairing because you couldn’t spend money on new clothes all the time. And people wouldn’t let you in places if you didn’t follow a strict dress code that often meant having to spend ton of money to maintain “respectability”, which is just bullshit.
And they got well made durable clothes of natural fibers. Pic related literal bums in a soup line at an Al Capone charity kitchen.

For me it's old Australian mug shots.
kino
Where did you find these? Some Australian online archive? The guy on the left looks terrifying
I honestly can't remember what I was looking for when I ran across one of these and then fell down the rabbit hole looking for more.
Look at those hands
look at those digits.
This guy looks like the type of person who squeezes your hand during a handshake to see how tough your grip is
Some popular blog posted them, it went viral a few years ago.
>Captioned: ‘This man refused to open his eyes’.
/ourguy/
>An entry (...) for Skukerman, (alias Kukarman, alias Cecil Landan) is captioned ‘obtains goods from warehousemen by falsely representing that he is in business’.
You can't make this shit up.
Where there's a will there's a way...lol
It’s certainly true that durability has given away for cheap and easily worn out materials.
Cheap shitty suits existed
>It's as demoralizing as israelite architecture.
How is art deco demoralizing?
the picture is not an example of shitty modern architecture moishe.
Is that a camouflaged gunboat?
why does one building need so many cannons?
To shoot down the goyim's dreams.
>as demoralizing as israelite architecture
???
You sure you don't mean "american architecture"?
Or explain how these are "demoralizing", because they seem pretty remoralizing to me.
Of course they mean American Architecture, pic related, but they can't say that, because it would mean accepting some collective blame on themselves, instead of putting it on a boogeyman.
>natural fibers
the frick are you talking about?
Cotton, linen, wool, silk etc. Not endocrine disrupting synthetics. I swear it's like you gays don't know anything about anything anymore.
>No screens and smartphones.
I don't mind screens, but no smartphones is a lovely thing. Watching people using smartphones in movies is so damn cringe.
That guy is so cringe
I've only read his articles about Stuck Culture and I think they're accurate, what makes him cringe (besides being a Twitter celeb)
>Stuck Culture
He's not wrong but I think the question is for these types of filmmakers is what, exactly, is 'filmable' that's worth depicting after, say, 2010? Another war or spy drama? Such a film couldn't take place centered in the Anglosphere, certainly. Tarantino having the tastes of a big all-American kid is well known, but the last two Nolan Batman films defined the last hurrah for unified pop cultural experiences, Wes Anderson's stylization has always been rooted in the mid-century modernistic style rooted in nostalgic sentiments, while Scorsese is old and smart enough to recognize how his films have effected how Americans think of gangsters and so on. Also, this is partially false; Nolan probably got his fill of contemporary international espionage+high concept contemporary scifi in Tenet and doesn't have a incentive to not play with more interesting themes. Hell, if any of these individuals wanted to make a contemporary film, who or what would be the main villain? A nuanced depiction of any force which is hostile to the Anglosphere other than islamic extremists in the current climate would spark a outcry.
>Hell, if any of these individuals wanted to make a contemporary film, who or what would be the main villain?
Some old-school cult maybe.
Probably they would make more Man vs Self/Society/Fate-type stories.
Honestly I want Wes Anderson to make a movie about a Jesus Camp-like religious retreat circa 2004 or along those lines, I also think he'd be the only one capable of depicting the genuine weirdness of, say, a event like the Indianapolis Brony shooter, which is the sort of story that actually /would/ cover the more unappealing aspects of contemporary culture (the relevance of ephemera like memes, the sheer hideous tragedy that is a life primarily influenced by the internet can do, ect) in a way that's nuanced and engaging and, well, topical. I'd be allergic to topicality to if I wanted to make films about America, you can't write fricking romance novels taking place in Russia or China now without getting backlash if those two places are depicted positively.
>what, exactly, is 'filmable' that's worth depicting after, say, 2010?
It’s more that they’re out of touch with modern shit in a way where it’s easier and more comfortable to do old shit they’re nostalgic for and have personal connection towards. You can do all kinds of stories set in the present but you actually have to be in touch with young people and what’s happening in the world to be able to do it well, and all these older filmmakers aren’t able to do that because they’re so famous and successful.
>Hell, if any of these individuals wanted to make a contemporary film, who or what would be the main villain?
Russia
I'd like to see a movie about the absolute state of office politics, especially when mixed in with the kind of people currently entering the workforce that only want to do nothing, and are allergic to learning things.
There's actually all kinds of cool things you can do with this. The most obvious is the typical business-movies like the recent Blackberry (or countless others, like the various jobs/apple or the social network, etc.), but centered on just the people at work rather than the whole business's rise and fall. You can vilify or lionize office politics. You can even portray it much like a spy film. Hell, you can even go abstract and play it like it's a war movie, but actually it's really just people fighting each other through politics, with alliances, factions, personal and professional clashes, etc.
I can't think of even one movie that does this, let alone that does it right.
There are also plenty of movies you can make about phone culture and its progression into the current era. In fact, several were made years ago. If you push it, it's idiocracy 2.0. If you go back in the past, it's historical. You can make it a drama or romcom about people being "alone together" and "breaking from the phone-induced shells" to "meet", etc. Plenty of ways to do it, it's not even that original but given the current sociopolitical context, can become interesting.
The latter idea sounds like a modern equivalent of that Adam Sandler movie about the magic remote (Click).
That's one way to play it, yeah.
Satoshi Kon was on the right track.
What did Satoshi kon say?
People actually went outside
Aesthetics can be fire sometimes
I do. Ozu films are so fricking comfy.
Not so comfy once you realize the whole apartment is in that frame.
small apartments are comfier than large ones in my experience
I love these little asian houses. Memories of Murder has some great ones.
No. You can still get cucked in old movies.
Yes.
You could do more fun things in the past. You could drink heavily on the job (some jobs at least), you could kick people's crutches from under them or pinch a girl's ass and usually get away with it, there was no health nazi bullshit, ice cream had dairy, fat and sugar in it, you could go to a bar and people actually talked to each other
>pinch a girl's ass and usually get away with it,
I want this in 2023
snapping bras was where it was at
I want to wear a suit but it would look weird in this day and age
I do it almost 100% of the time in fall/winter. Maybe not a full suit but at least a sport coat and slacks. If it's raining I have my rain hat and trench on. I've been called "Inspector Gadget". lol I have no fricks to give. The people you see all the time at the places you frequent get used to it. And holy frick are all the pockets in a suit useful as hell.
>
i see you've never spent time around lawyers
Some jobs require it, or at least make you stand out like a sore thumb if you don't. I had to wear a suit in a management internship even though my job was basically just making spreadsheets, barely interacting with anyone besides to hand in reports or conduct interviews. Not customer-facing at all. I remember seeing IT go by in shorts and plain tees and seething.
>you could kick people's crutches from under them
What kind of dirty Black person would do this
>pinch a girl's ass and usually get away with it
I doubt it. Weren't people more uptight in the past? I see no reason to believe that shit would fly, not now and certainly not then
The rest does sound nice though
>I doubt it. Weren't people more uptight in the past? I see no reason to believe that shit would fly, not now and certainly not then
The boomers I know tell me stories of stuff you could never pull off today. The past wasn't just constant Victorian England until like 2015
You cannot understate the importance of the handheld cellphone camera in terms of changing human behavior. Seriously, that's it, it's the driving force behind why, say, drifters just don't rape people like they used to, or why musicians just don't frick 14 year old 'groupies', or why rich people don't have secret families like they used to, ect. Being 'proper' was important regardless of relative social class (a far cry from today) but, well, temperance movements failed for a reason in the mid-century and contemporary social liberal values as we'd understand them (including a general sense that social freedom was important, it's what separates the archetypical land-owning white-picket fence two kids+dog model of the American homestead against the European serf). Also, there's always been decadents and weird social movements and fringe groups not based around race, every human society across time and space has it's seedy areas where certain social norms were dropped.
>Seriously, that's it, it's the driving force behind why, say, drifters just don't rape people like they used to, or why musicians just don't frick 14 year old 'groupies',
They took this from us...
>No. We have photos and books for that.
And... You know, movies
I don't watch specifically for that reason but when I do that's the fact constantly running through my head. Are these locations still like this? Or have they been urbanized? Especially with westerns with long open landscapes.
When I was in grade 4 i knew a girl in grade 5 (10/11 years old) who thought the world used to be black and white.
I hope she's been raped and murdered by now.
yes
I don't get it. Also, is it canon that the dad is a moronic ass?
Found the nonwhite.
just joshin ya
That meme but unironically
Yes, i hate the world became colored. I want to go back to black and white
for me it's Ayako Wakao
Wakao has better boobs than Mariko Okada but Mariko has one of the best faces the movie camera has captured. In Yoshida's movies it's like the camera is trying to have sex with her face, it explores the face from every angle up close
Wakao also made good modern movies and wasn’t completely tied to doing traditional obedient and docile wife roles
You sound like you haven't seen any of Okada's non-Ozu movies. Her most recognizable role is that of a literal anarchist
it's the only type of movie i can stomach.
you guys should watch Two Wives.
possibly my favourite Ayako role.
1960s Japanese films have the best movie aesthetic ever, those sexy B&W widescreen compositions with lots of negative space, smooth suits, rotary phones and pretty women. Such a captivating blend of Jap zen aesthetic and Euro/US modernist influence.
>deleted and reposted just so he could add an image
not very zen, tbh
>nooo you can't redo a post after forgetting to post the image
>greentext butthurt posting
definitely not zen, pham
They wouldn't have mad those films back in those days if everything was going great.
?
What films?
all those postwar movies about prostitutes and tuberculosis like Women of the Night by Mizoguchi
Yeah, so? It still looked better than today. And prostitutes and STDs still exist, so what's your point
Ok, thanks
Yes, I especially like old period pieces. I saw Yojimbo recently and it was great.
I like watching old shows where everyone was Christian and didn't live by honor culture third world lifestyles
Me on the right
Yes. I like seeing how life, even romanticized and anti-romanticized was back then. And the places other than cities were beautiful. Everywhere today is ugly with square shapeless modern art buildings. You ever walk in an old beach town where its 1/3 kino shacks with wood shingles, 1/3 two story townhouses, and 1/3 three story ugly modernist homes that soulless money people have built to suck out maximum real estate value? Disgusting and degenerate.
is that the guy from sword of doom?
Yes. Tatsuya Nakadai.
This film is When a Woman Ascends the Stairs (1960), great melodrama
cool, really enjoyed him in sword of doom. I'll check it out. Been watching a lot of old nip films recently
The man's a trooper, he's still acting in movies and stage play to this day I recall.
yes
I watch movies because I like hearing foreign languages
Just go to London
Those are native languages now
movies like Dirty Harry and The French Connection have an extra layer of kino for how they captured SF and NY in the early 70s
There is more of sense of place in old movies (pre globalism) even down to subtle things like the cars and street furniture
>Anyone else watch old movies because you like how the world looked like in the past?
Yeah, homogenous communities.
There's nothing that throws me off a movie more than people on smartphones. Get that shit out of my face.
>Get cheap longcoat/overcoat
>Snubby

They should kick her out of their group, she ruins the entire thing.
i fricking hate larpers. if you asked them for a signifcant name from that era, they would be clueless
>is that...is that...? people having fun...? AHHHHH HELP ME HUSTLENBUSTLEMAN I'M GOING INSANE
Mosley and picrel
It would be so much to shadow these dorks and blast techno at them all day ruining their homosexual little larp.
Why haters got to hate?
What movie is that
Le petit soldat
If you want it ruined just imagine a moron with an iPhone recording this, everyone doing multiple takes...
No. We have photos and books for that.
Frankly, I love to imagine what people are going to think this time was like based on movies.
Movies won’t be made very far into the future. Once whites are violently exterminated (within the next decades), society will collapse because non-whites will be unable to maintain it. The only movies that might still happen will be Chinese propaganda films (and even that might not happen since China is teetering on failed state territory as of late).
I watch old movies because they're better. But I guess that's also a good reason.
Yes. It's like peering into heaven.
You're all fedora tipping homosexuals
>muh people dressed properly in suits back then
cringe lmao
You lack Faustian Spirit and sound brown

Let's see those hands.
You too browny.
i seriously believe i could have had a chance to make something of myself and go somewhere if i was born just a few decades earlier
Yeah. Staring at screens ate up too much of my life
nope. you would have been a loser in any era. kys.
My grandfather built his own house with his buddies, raised and sent to college 4 kids as a short order cook who eventually bought part of the business. He retired at 54 so for my entire life until his death he was comfortably retired.
My grandfather and grandmother moved into a mobile home (?) On the Oregon Coast in the 70s iirc and proceeds to build out adding a dining room that looked out of the hill to the bay and ocean and on the other side build an entry hallway and large open ceiling family room, extra bedroom and green room. There was one flaw in the beam supporting the ceiling in the family room, the beam itself rotated a little as it fully dried so it didn't perfectly align with the peak of the roof. My grandmother gave him shit for that for the rest of their lives kek
Truly a different time. I was lucky enough to spend a lot of time with that man and learned how to build decks and sheds, remodel, just the shit he could do as ill health clouded his last couple decades of life. But my education on doing it yourself is so far beyond what most kids get these days I'm shocked when I think about it. I used to spend spring tilling the land for the family garden. Landscaping their property as I saw fit because it was fun to dig and build terrace... I look at these kids these days even my own and I know they don't know how to swing a hammer let alone build a fort in a tree and I weep for the future. And I was a geek/nerd for the time! lol we truly have ruined our culture chasing immediate gratification fueled profit
you just want to legally sexually assault women, and be allowed to be racist in public
You don't?
>Sexually assault women
No.
>Be allowed to be racist in public
Yes, very much so.
yes
Yes.
I especially like how LA looks in the 60s and early 70s.
It's so different to today it's jarring.
San Francisco looks kino in old movies, such as Dark Passage (1947)
>thing changes
>brain snapped!
>go agane
Did you seriously just say the feces-ridden murder hellhole that is modern San Franciso is equivalent to the classic San Fran of classy well-dressed whites, and that people simple hate "change"? Is that seriously the intelligent argument you're trying to make?
Do you even think how kneejerk posts like yours make you look rattled and pathological?
The 'rot' has always existed in the United States, it's just that, traditionally, the people in the margins of urban society were both far more mobile than they are today and were more prone to killing themselves young. Fan Franisco always had degenerate elements, no different than any other place in America, but hard drugs hadn't yet caused the underclass that pads out the mundane underclass to totally degenerate. When did San Francisco turn into a hellhole, 1980?

As a Japangay the world around me doesn't look all that different from the world of the past. I wish I could say the same about the west.
No I usually watch them because i like how the world looked in the future.
How can we get women's fashion to return to the saloon girl aesthetic?
me watching society rn
I like watching old movies that are set in even older time periods
Can you even comprehend living in a place like that and you walk out your front door and everyone looks that like?
There's no line of people in ratty t-shirts and flipflops at the 7-11 that's for sure.
At least we’re not speaking German.
At least we have diversity

Non-English speaking movies made before the 21st century are kino
I always feel like those people had dirty butts.

See if you were an English speaker, you would have said
>how the world looked
or
>what the world looked like
but you're not, so you didn't.
And yet you still understood, loser
You know, you guys always put down the posters that say
>if I was born earlier life would have been better for me
Saying they would still be a loser, and that’s probably true, but losers used to have a different life. I’m an oldmangay, born in 1970. My high school had 2000 people, NO one had 0 friends. The losers hung out with each other. I don’t think a single guy didn’t have a girlfriend or get some action at some point. Sure there were popular guys and losers, some guys had more friends, some guys got more girls. But the big difference was the quality of girl, everyone was focused on the hot ones, and wished they could have them(me included) but you still had your ugly girlfriend. This shit where some 1/3 of guys have no friends, and get no girls, that’s new. That’s a new kind of suffering that almost didn’t exist, so there is some truth to what they say.
No, these whiny homosexuals deserve no sympathy. The people with miserable lives have miserable lives because THEY CHOSE THEM. EVERY PERSON is responsible for his own life, no one else is obligated to fix it for them and it's not "society's fault".
If you're a literal virgin incel loser it's because you're so pathetic and addicted to living like an infant you choose not to get out of your rut and defend your worthless ego by saying it's someone else's fault you're in one.
We can both be right you know. They can be responsible for their own lives and not deserve sympathy for it being shit, AND it can also be true that they might have had a better one by some metrics if they lived a few decades earlier.
Not true. Your choices are limited because you always depend on others in the end. You can't be happy without other people's consent because you have to find some way of forcing people to be your friends or coercing women into sex.
And why do you care anyways? You write like you're fuming with anger irl. You're a bigger loser than the men you're castigating
Younggays will never get it. Life used to be about the people in it. Everything was about being around people and physically going to places to be with people. Unless there was something majorly abnormal about you or you constantly caused problems no one had any issues finding people to be around and there were so many less abstract conflicts or distractions to subvert what used to be basic human interactions.
We were not built to live like current year.
But what do zoomers do instead, i dont get it
You'd have to ask them as I wouldn't know. I've aged out of knowing what "the kids" are up to.
A big portion of kids don't socialize outside of Twitch, Tiktok and Twitter anymore. A lot of zoomers have insane amounts of anxiety and fear of interaction because real life is unpredictable, unlike the videos on your phone, so they simply use social media to live vicariously
There's the other portion that is always outside and partying, debasing themselves in hedonism amd addiction. A true middle ground is rare.
What is always present is the fricking phone. Everything is filmed, photographed and poster for mass consumption on tiktok or instagram.
>t. 24 year old with a little sister
Yeah young people from other generations really hated partying and sex
This
Also there's just not a lot you can do these days that doesn't involve staring into a phone
This
Smartphones are the worst thing that has happened this century
No no, I know, I like that and the best moments of life have been random like that kek
But a lot of people my age and below can't seem to accept that and live in seclusion or delusion. Insane Standards and fear of intimacy are so rampant that a third of both men and women don't frick anymore
>real life is unpredictable
That's the best part. You might get embarrassed at a party or some bawd might get rejected by chad and hate frick you because you stood still long enough. There was this one chick a buddy of mine was dating and she ended up getting a train run on her because she didn't want to go home. Everyone got laid. Everyone. Even the fat black guy who was into anime.
Kek this happened in my school. This chick got a train run on her by seriously like 100 guys. Every single solitary time I saw her after that people were loudly making fun of her. She got it constantly. It’s been 20 years and last I checked her Facebook like 1/3 of the comments were cheeky references to it. She must have given up trying to moderate her friends list. Brutal
>A lot of zoomers have insane amounts of anxiety and fear of interaction because real life is unpredictable, unlike the videos on your phone
Isn't that more because of cancel culture and puriteens, along with social media and cameras everywhere?
I know I'd have been even more isolated as a teenager and young adult if I knew that any awkward social interaction could be used as grounds to ruin my life forever.
I'm a zoomer and at this point I'm very close to giving up on life. I can't make or retain friends, I don't know how I'm supposed to get a gf, I'm just sick of everything
>I'm very close to giving up on life
Try to remember that suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Where there's life there's hope. Also why in the frick would anyone check out before the absolute shitshow that's gonna go down over the next decade? Talk about living in interesting times. See you at the camps bro!
Nothing ever happens, /misc/head.
>Nothing ever happens
Ironic, that's what /misc/tards say.
You'd know a lot about that, wouldn't you /misc/tard.
>Also why in the frick would anyone check out before the absolute shitshow that's gonna go down over the next decade? Talk about living in interesting times.
That is indeed one of the few reasons to live. I'm obsessed with reading what's going on in the world and recently I was captivated by the Titanic submarine arc and Russian coup arc
I love how habbening gays keep crying because they aren't puking their guts out from radiation sickness.
Tip from millenial. Just start wageslaving and save every penny for like a year or something and then start advancing. You want GF? Sorry but you will need money, car and apartment. But I would advice something more along the lines of saving up for a year or two and then just take a plane to somewhere cheap and warm and live like a wealthy man in a poor country. The women will throw themselfs at you, people are friendly, no more western propaganda and nonsense culture.
Trust me, traveling is the best antidote
That second part of your advice is a bit loaded though. I went with my buddy to a South American shithole, and while yes, I’m a total loser and yet 4 different smoking hot latinas literally begged my to put babies in them(like literally that’s what they said), I also got robbed while there, and it is a shithole. And perhaps most importantly the reason those 9/10 women wanted me to creampie them is so that they could extort child support from me and/or get a trip to a first world country. Generally speaking, actual sex having guys do not frick those women, it’s not considered worth it. Oh and the STD risk. Spoiler alert, I risked it. But I probably shouldn’t have.
Depends on which shithole and if you're dumb enough to show wealth around. Don't fling about your expensive new iphone in a deserted street next to a shanty town if you don't want to get mugged.
I mean you aren’t wrong but it’s beside the point. I could sleep on my front lawn with a pile of money on my chest and wake up undisturbed, with my money still there. It being possible to survive a shithole doesn’t negate it being a shithole. It’s nice not having to do tactical planning to go get a sandwich.
>not being moronic = tactical planning
>thinks he can sleep anywhere at all, let alone outside, with many anywhere near him and survive in amerikkka
lol
This raises so many questions. But first of all you sound like an actual moron.
>travel to most crime infected place on earth
>get robbed
>frick traveling!
You might best just stay in your parents basement and live the neet life.
What? I’m simply saying there are downsides to going to shitholes, that’s all. You seem to agree with me.
Buddy you have no idea what the white parts of the US are like. Crime rates where I live are lowest on the planet, only small euro towns and small jap cities are comparable. Just like if you ask a euro about Barcelona or London and they say “doesn’t count! No one with a brain lives there! That’s where the shitskins are”. Well same deal here, you have to live away from the brown people if you want a quality of life. It’s slightly more difficult as there are a lot more brown people, but at the same time this country is frick huge, there are countless nice places to live. If you aren’t poor is actually quite easy.
>ameriburger is delusional
what a surprise
>downsides
Well, the way I see it. If you have half a brain you avoid those situations with ease. You choose a country not run by cartells and street thugs. You pick a country where people are generally friendly, were everything is cheap and pref were you either speak the language or where they speak english. STDs are avoided by using condom or not fricking street trash hood rats. What you do is traveling the country, checking out the nature then get a place to live and get a trad wife. Or just do whatever you like. Traveling to some shithole for a few weeks is not really the same as living abroad for 1+ years.
> no you have to go to this specific shithole and do only these certain things
Cope
I litterly wrote "or do whatever you like", but I guess living abroad is too scary of a concept for some little b***h like you. Stay in your room and be depressed then.
There are a great deal of them. You do realize that there are more countries than USA, Canada and Mexico, right? Me personally have my sights set on Costa Rica or maybe Uruguay this time around. Byt many people chose any of the south east asians countries. But considering you sound like a curled lil b***h I would suggest Europe, like Poland or non muslim parts of balkan. Maybe Portugal or Spain even, Portugal is one option for me but Spain is not so attractive in my eyes.
If you wish to live in a safe trad country where everything is cheap then Poland, baltics or non muslim balkan countries. No heat though. But probably your best bet if you cant avoid walking down the wrong alley during the night with the words RICH GRINGO written on your forhead.

Holy frick Americans are moronic.
I am not american. I am from Europe and unlike you I have visited Poland
>You choose a country not run by cartells and street thugs. You pick a country where people are generally friendly, were everything is cheap and pref were you either speak the language or where they speak english.
Where is this magical country lmfao? Mars?
I go to work, come home, eat food, play video games/watch youtube videos/watch twitch streamers, jack off and then go to bed
Sounds made up based on your own anecdotal experiences
Film never recovered from digital cameras. Movies are fricking ugly now and nobody seems to care.
That looks beautiful. Is it actually a good movie?
Just watched it because of that poster.
It's OK, not fantastic. Very good image, but pretty lackluster plot overall. Although the roman-nascent christian dynamics are fun, there is too much emphasis on them and far too much screentime given to the christians (this matters because instead of showing things about those christians, it's just letting figures like peter prattle on repeating the text in the king james' bible, which seems otherwise very much out of context with what the movie seems to be about). Also all the stories involved (namely nero and the burning of rome, christian lore, and man-from-group-A-wants-to-frick-woman-from-group-B) are common fares you've probably seen at 12 different sauces already.
Definitely worth a watch if you're bored. If you're not bored, there are better movies about ancient rome and around.
>love watching 40's and 50's movies because they depict a different world
>realize boomers fricked everything up for us and we're stuck with this fake and gay society

As a young person today if you try to dress slightly trad and respectable and act so you'll be ostracized by other young people, you have to dress like a slob and talk like an idiot
That's part of it yeah. Old films are a time capsule allowing us to peer back at the way people looked and dressed and spoke, and how the world looked different etc.
I like old movies because it's like escaping to a different reality where my shitty existence wasn't even thought of yet
my turbo cinephile friend that loves old cinema never saw this. i did, and i dont watch movies. i think somethings wrong with his hobbysm.
we can't all have the same taste and interests
Yes, seeing the old decor and cars is a huge part of the draw of cinema.
It's not that I like older times it's that I like watching older times. Whenever I watch a movie set in another country, another decade, another era, whatever, there's a moment where the setting clicks and I get chills and I want to cry. So if that happens to me it's the mark of a good movie.
Cool it with the antisemitic remarks.
