    EEAAO is mediocrity that celebrates mediocrity. It exists to vindicate the weaknesses of the self-pitying younger generations who watch it and relate to having entitlements about their identities, disdain for conservative family members, existential despair, etc.
    The film is designed to answer the audience's expectations and the expectations of our era is endless dopamine and quirky humor that is incapable of sincerity without layers of irony or pop culture references. The directors themselves have described the film as a "cathartic" experience, not a challenging one.

    So what you get is a movie of pure cowardice. When confronted with the infinite possibilities of the universe it instead tells people that they're better off retreating inwards and staying inside their own mediocrity since the world is pointless and "confusing" anyways. It conditions people to not aspire towards higher values and instead accept the destitution of the liberal consumerist hellhole we live in.
    We're told that everything is meaningless and morality isn't real but then the movie conveniently presents worldly morality as the solution to despair.
    It claims our laws and institutions are fake but then depicts the prevailing liberal orthodoxies of our time as the truth, most notably with the lesbian daughter who rejects the traditional cultural values of her family in favor of Western utilitarianism.
    Why should we embrace compassion, meekness and liberalism when none of these things inherently mean anything?
    The film has no answer, and since it has no rational basis it relies on pure sentimentality and didacticism to convey its message. It's simply high-brow propaganda to numb you from despair for 2 hours but it provides no concrete solutions to nihilism. It's the least revolutionary film ever. As the movie concedes, nothing matters and the universe is too confusing to solve, so don't even bother. Just be a nice person and follow society's laws, like doing your taxes.

      Idk if this is pasta but it nails it. I don’t know why people think “love is the answer” constitutes a “soulful” film when its the most generic do-nothing morality lesson we’ve seen in thousands of Hollywood movies. It is essentially nihilistic since the solution its offering is essentially “be happy with what you have”, just give in and give up. Its exactly as “anti-nihilist” as Rick and Morty, it illustrates an incredibly nihilistic and hopeless universe then follows it up with “but muh family” and rolls the credits.

      Ironically the key to solving nihilism and a crumbling dystopia would be recognizing the government as an evil institution of vampiric thieves, and a mass amount of people finally refusing to pay taxes.

        I wrote that pasta originally. I do think the film was well-made and enjoyable but the reason it fails is because of how didactic it is. I don't have to agree with every piece of art to appreciate it but the entire film is in service of painstakingly telling the audience its message. It spells it out over and over to the point where the movie goes on for way too long. There's no division between the aesthetic value and moral value of the film. It's a giant glowing sign telling you what to think rather than allow the audience to use their own intuition and reflect on its themes. That's why it has such a huge effect on people; it manipulates their emotions with sentimental bullshit without justifying its own ideology. So I can't separate the art from the message.

      If you accept the premise that life has no inherent meaning, then a position as banal as "be nice to one another and learn to accept the inherent absurdity of your Sisyphean existence" is probably the least destructive conclusion one could come to. The film is nihilistic, but of the absurdist Camus-brand.

          I’m curious what you think a better ending would be? They find Jesus? Then what? They decide to go to church on Sunday and vote for GOP grifters? What exactly is the better solution?

          Passive nihilism is not "destructive" in the short-term but it absolutely is suicide on a civilizational scale, because you forfeit any effort for positive construction. You don't want to change the world for the better, you don't want to challenge your institutions, you don't want to plan for the future. You instead wallow in your decadence and go along with society in fluidity. It's a sterile lifestyle that is currently killing many countries from within as their populations will be on the verge of collapse in the coming decades. The movie promotes this lifestyle very intentionally. It claims to support families but then conveniently endorses lesbianism which literally ends families. Their daughter is their only child. It's a genetic dead-end just like the liberal societies we live in which have no vision of a great future because we've already reached "the end of history."

          You complain about religion being more destructive but ask yourself why those beliefs persist after thousands of years and countless extinct civilizations meanwhile our current values are already running out of steam after a couple centuries.

      Nihilism is just the idea that there is no inherrint meaning to life.
      Chuds hate it because it destroys religion/tradition and leads to degeneracy.
      Normies like it for the same reason, it justifies hedonism and consumerism which is easier than acetic morality.
      Chuds like it because it leads to the ubermench and creating your own values (strength of will, nazi response to nihlism).
      Normies hate it for the same reason, the idea that others can impose their values/will on them because of their lack of values/will.

        Because everyone, even normies, recognize we are living in a crumbling dystopia. The reasons might differ, but everyone sees it. Nihilism is the easiest and most banal conclusion. A nihilistic movie in a time like this is essentially a waste of time.

        I dunno it seems like a practical worldview to being in a collapsing world and biosphere. Maybe I just don't get it but if I get stressed about global situation I just imagine the earth existing for millions of years hence and millions of years before I was born, countless lives of animals and plants struggling to survive and ultimately succumbing. It feels grounding to remember I'm just one of those critters and I will die and it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme. If that's nihilism I find it helpful

          Nihilism is then coming to the conclusion that life is simply not worth living. EEAAO offers the alternative that in the face of this our choice to love makes life worth living. The problem chuds have with it is that this conclusion still builds from the acceptance that nothing matters and there isnt much point in bettering your life or situation. Its a passive solution where as modern nihilism/decay demands an active solution.

            But that's not what Nietzsche says or Schopenhauer. Every nihilist philosopher I've read says you should keep living in pursuit of a meaning that you build for yourself without losing sight of it being an arbitrary choice that you have made ie. Not the wil of God or destiny. I have never read a nihilist book where the author simply said "life isn't worth it, give up" - even Emil Cioran, the original incel and most depressing of all nihilists said suicide was pointless because "you always do it too late". I don't think any actual nihilist philosophy outside of random Internet posts is unironically advocating just giving up or outright suicide

            Wait that disgusted Nietzsche? Why and how so? I thought his whole deal was god is dead so you have to make your own meaning in life?
            The positive nihilism you just described seems like common sense. 98% of people hate their job but they go do it anyway because need the money even though we all understand money is artifical and inherently meaningless the economy is failing etc. Just seems pragmatic I guess not sure if many people treat it as an explicit philosophy though, most normies I meet are very much in the camp of "I'm not religious but I believe in a higher power watching over me/I believe my life has some purpose and meaning" mentality

They could pick anything and say it is meaningful and make up a reason to substantiate it because its a movie. They opted for 'loving one another' as the antidote to nihilism but then didn't substantiate it against the claims they set up which is why its an unsatisfactory proposal.

    Isn't it about coming to terms with her lesbian daughter or something? I haven't seen it.
    Either way it's not meant for me, a White person.

    I just watched this and I spent the entire movie repeating the words "this is reddit, this is memes, this is reddit, this is memes..." under my breath.
    I fricking hated it. I was writhing around on the floor in front of the chair for the last 30 minutes it was so painful.
    >Ayy quirky A24 movie lmao
    If you liked it you're in the wrong place

    i thought the characters having to do ridiculous and embarrasing shit to shift dimensions and gain "powers" was a pretty good parody of those gay anime transformation dances.
    in general as a austin powers-esque parody of action movies its pretty decent though definitely not Oscar material

    Really glad I got to see this movie when it came out. Got to have some great threads discussing it before every thread became a Reddit-tier contrarian shit show, as required by anything that gets popular on Cinemaphile.

    Everyone is discussing the themes of this movie like they are well developed at all? Like besides literally pulling her daughter out of a nihilism doughnut how does it even portray nihilism? Taxes are shitty and conservative parents dont like gays? Divorce? I feel like theres almost nothing that justifies such an over-the-top metaphorical climax when none of the characters are particularly nihilistic. I guess theres the multiverse aspect that makes their lives feel insignificant, but it still needs to relate back to the “original” timeline which wasnt even that bad to begin with. This was a very upper middle class movie to me. I get the point was to portray “normal” feelings as big and epic, but then why have the nihilism theme at all? Just make it about the multiverse and realizing the timeline your in is actually the one you want, pretending it actually touches on true despair only muddies the waters.

      Hey anon, quick question. Are you diagnosed with a mental handicap or did your parents just see the writing on the wall and avoid paying a doctor to tell them the obvious?

    >Fanboy favorite Everything Everywhere All at Once epitomized the faithlessness at the heart of comic-book culture. Michelle Yeoh plays Evelyn Wang, a Chinese immigrant laundromat owner whose American-based working-class struggles import Hong Kong action-movie agnosticism. (What contemporary Hollywood film would dare recognize the moral struggles of native white, black, Latin, or Native Americans?) Unconcerned about the existence or nature of God, Evelyn is caught up in a materialistic world of new beliefs (her beta-male husband, lesbian daughter, and feminist IRS inspector).

    > The film’s writing-directing team the Daniels (Dan Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, respectively Asian and Caucasian) challenge the real world by surrounding Evelyn in a circus-like multiverse — the new atheist box-office utopia. Evelyn’s journey toward self-empowerment comes down to tortured Buddhism — just as the Daniels make tortured, semi-jokey art films. Unschooled Marvel addicts who never heard of Kafka, Buñuel, or Chuck Jones easily fall for the entropy farce. The Daniels refuse narrative convention in order to represent our culture’s gradual decline into disorder. Their millennial solipsism — Evelyn against the world, through various dimensions — celebrates autism as insight.

    >The film’s ultimate message: “Be Kind,” spoken by two rocks. It’s a childish palliative, unlike the recent self-critical protest songs by Van Morrison and Bob Dylan that insist on responsible personal choices. Yeoh brings adult stability to the blackout-skit chaos and cast of “stupid human” clowns.

    What’s funny to me about Cinemaphile is how you gays always pretend you like family movies with trad values, but end up shitting and whining about the ones that do exist. Exhibit A: CODA

    The truth is, Cinemaphile gays don’t care about movies unless they’re capeshit or ~~*diverse*~~
