Young women like him because he has a pretty boy face with the genes of his chad older brother, but he has those crazy Steve Buscemi bug eyes that make him look a little strange and rough around the edges. It's a combination of aesthetics that is very popular with women even if men don't get it.
Oh gee, how about just not make it ugly as shit?
Eggers shot it on 35mm film. He has no excuses. The Herzog version from the 70s still holds up visually, pic related.

Kind of sounds like Herzog's film tbh senpai (which I loved)
If you saw films that inspired BtBR (Phase IV, Altered States, Demon Seed, Andromeda Strain, etc), it's not pointless at all. But of course you didn't.
If a film can't stand by itself, that's not exactly a good thing
If a films value lies on referencing other works, that's also not a good thing
It may be that the film just sucks
I cannot imagine the based savior of cinema Robert Eggers ever choosing to shoot something in full color then slapping a grey filter over it
If he didn't use a black and white lense then he fully intended to make this movie full color and the studio was like "it'll get more praise for being a creative art house movie if we slap the adobe premiere default black and white filter over it or something"
>I cannot imagine the based savior of cinema Robert Eggers ever choosing to shoot something in full color then slapping a grey filter over it
Already happened twice with The Witch and The Northman.

It’s all very subtle, But I think the main thing is that he’s even more a folk vampire.

period accurate autism kino confirmed
>period accurate autism
at this point I wonder what an Eggers movie that didn't go for this would even look like. I'm okay with never finding out and just letting him do what he does forever, but it certainly would be interesting what he'd do with a movie where he couldn't go deep into this autism.
Using a PR account to do PR for your movie on a website for homosexuals doesn't make you a homosexual it makes you a guy who wants people to go see your movie, you homosexual
I love that modern movies have inaudible mumbled dialogue and booming bass. I love that they are dark and desaturated blue or orange. I don't want to hear what anyone is saying and I don't want to see what anyone is doing.
poster looks good
That's fan made, dumbo
>falling for cheap looking fan art in 2023
>Lili-Rose Depp
Into the trash it goes
I know zoomers love him but I really don't get the appeal of Bill Skarsgard.
Young women like him because he has a pretty boy face with the genes of his chad older brother, but he has those crazy Steve Buscemi bug eyes that make him look a little strange and rough around the edges. It's a combination of aesthetics that is very popular with women even if men don't get it.
He's 6'4"
>lily rosedepp
Talentless nepobabby. Might as well cast fricking Clara Delvinge or Beyonce. Sad, I had hopes for Eggers. Into the trash it goes.
>Depp’s boggeddaughter
no thanks
>Eggers' Nosferatu
nepo babies - the movie
They should remake Metropolis for the 100th anniversary in 2027.
no they fricking shouldn't
I've liked every Eggers movie thus far so I'm excited for this and nothing anyone here says can change that.
Me too brother peace
same
IS THAT A MOVIE MADE TODAY THAT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS MADE TODAY? AHHHH IM GETTING PISSED
Yes, shit.
What was he supposed to do, use a hand cranked Lumière brothers camera?
Not frick up the lighting, and not fall for meme color grading. Don't be moronic.
Yes.
Oh gee, how about just not make it ugly as shit?

would have looked even better if Werner had digital grading.
EGGED
I will hold all expectations and refrain from watching trailers to go in blind.
Here are some test screen reactions

Wait he is using Skarsgard again after norfman? And Dafoe again?
>skarsgard
It’s his brother, Bill Skarsgård
Hes using the incel skarsgard.
That's Valter. Bill has kids and therefore can't be an incel.
I thought he was going to shoot it on b&w film, like The Lighthouse.
I will not watch this movie, ever, but I will take every opportunity to shit on it once I have a basic understanding of the memes it produces.
If no one else is going to say it, I will. Bugles suck.
Panos Cosmatos is the only director worth a shit rn
I love Cosmic Penis!
That's literally what his movies look like. a giant cosmic penis.
Beyond the Black Rainbow sucked
I despise people who are wooed by pointless, empty aesthetics

It may be that the film just sucks
For a miniscule budget directorial debut feature, homage is fitting, and Cosmatos did very well.
Eggers is only capable of kino and I love Dracula/Nosferatu movies.
weird cast in this one. Why did he cast Rose Depp and Nicholas Hoult?
Ayynya was unavailable. Or she told Eggers she was unavailable because she feels she's too famous for him now.
will there be weird sex stuff in this movie and if yes how much

Black person what the frick are you talking about
>cold colors in cold environment
crazy stuff
those are promo photos, not shots from the film
>everything is one color
bravo egghead
Another fake and gay claim
I like the way you can't see her hair so it looks like she's bald with a skin spike on top of her head
i really liked both nosferatu movies, but i felt like herzog's monster was a step down from the original. have we seen what this one will look like?

I can already tell this is gonna be pure fricking kino
Where is this set? The middle east? We need more of that setting.
Watch Shadow of the Vampire
This is going to bury him, looks shit. What a flash in the pan career
You underestimate how many young women love watching movies about a girl in a castle getting raped by vampires.
>"there's too much Grey"
I'll never watch another AJew4 movie for the rest of my life after what they did to Green Knight.
A24 has nothing to do with it
Eggers hasn't been with A24 for like 4 years
>AJew4
come on man you could at least have come up with Gay24
looks like that red haired from House of Dragon
I love that modern movies have inaudible mumbled dialogue and booming bass. I love that they are dark and desaturated blue or orange. I don't want to hear what anyone is saying and I don't want to see what anyone is doing.
Bill and his shitass brothers need to frick off permanently
They won't
The original nosferatu movie is lame as hell
The Herzog attempt was inspired. This looks like a pastiche of the original article and Werner’s.
Frick these terror pictures. Too scary for me, turn that shit off!
