Absolute kino. Top fricking tier sci-fi. I can't believe I've never seen this shit or even heard anyone talking about it.

never heard of it but it sounds interesting. cheers.
this is one of those fake movies-within-a-movie you'd see in Mr Beans Holiday or something
>Neanderthals are excluded
unforgivable you Anglo frick
Can anyone recommend any really good, lesser known sci-fi films, bros?
Planet of the Vampires
Seconds (1966)
What did they mean by this?
i took it as a depiction of future man
Squidward?
>a letter to humanity from 2 billion years in the future
And what do these advanced future humans tell her? Buy carbon credits?
there won't be any trace of humans on this planet in a million years
Who said that humans stay on Earth?
It's based on a 1930's novel of the same name, apparently so it's not woke. It chronicles the course of human history, calamities that befall us, and some major events leading up to our extinction. There are no politics in the movie.
>It chronicles the course of human history... There are no politics in the movie.
Uh huh.
You're such a small minded person that you actually think any span of time we've experienced thus far matters in the scope of a 2 billion+ year interstellar civilization.
One of many. Seriously, what the frick went on in Yugoslavia that they built so many weird structures?
Politics has existed ever since man first organized into larger groups and settlements, why would it cease to exist in the future? Or does the movie have some kind of machine hivemind where everyone functions in unison?
It was written in 1930. No one said politics cease to exist, I said the movie has no politics in it. There's nothing political about it. Watch it and point out to me what is political. You're worse than a coomer.
And you're clearly a moron.
Explain how the land before time is political
> It's not woke!
"Eighteenth Men. The most advanced humans of all. A race of philosophers and artists with a very liberal sexual morality. One interesting aspect of the Eighteenth Men is that they have a number of different "sub-genders," variants on the basic male and female pattern, with distinctive temperaments."
>A race of philosophers and artists with a very liberal sexual morality
Please cease these anti-semitic remarks
>Seriously, what the frick went on in Yugoslavia that they built so many weird structures?
Communist art was not only monumental monuments commemorating the monumental fight of the brave red army forces against the monumentally overwhelming fascism.
And it was an ugly friend.
>There are no politics in the movie
the context of making a movie from the perspective of a mankind ended while we're beginning to feel some of the catastrophic effects of manmade climate change makes it political.
Here's why you're a moron, if that's the parallel you want to make:
>the catastrophe that destroys the last men is unavoidable and not their fault in any way
nontheless, a film about the end of man, made at a time where many fear we're at the cusp of civilizational breakdown, is political. you can't really get around it. its not a bad thing. nothing wrong with having politics in media.
>everyone is DOOOOOOMED
Time to take an internet break, anon.
>everyone is DOOOOOOMED
This is the message being hammered home for some decades now by the media, and this movie sounds like it is just adding to that chorus of doom
>by the media
scientists actually. until fairly recently the media tried to both sides the issue to death.
What do you consider "recent"? Sounds like you haven't been paying attention for the past 15 years.
wasnt THAT long ago the news would air the reactionary assertion that "the scientific community is divided on the issue" without any pushback.
Bless you anon, looks like my kind of movie
Sounds moronic.
>alien looking structures that were actually Yugoslavian memorials
let me guess, it has pic related
I'll try to keep this in mind next time I'm tripping.
i enjoyed this too, anon, and i'd like to recommend "the gulf of silence" suitable for putting on in the background
sounds like it's derivative of/exists to get mogged by La Jetee, at twice the runtime and a fraction of the plot. There are worse fates though
The actual book describes Cults Of Youth (Pro-MAP cults) forming and rising to power after gas supplies run dry, beginning in Argentina
I found it unengaging and stopped watching
I just downloaded the audio and listen while I work/sleep
