I BLEW MY BUTT OFF
Noted, I'll make sure to tell your wife you valiantly blew your butt off.
"well if some of them pass out, they'll just pass out." pretty much all i remember. and that guy from cheers blew his own arse off lel.
It was a boring drag, nothing happend and i thought at first i had the commentary track on but it was just the dumb monologue.
But did you reflect on those words?
What was his fricking problem
The closer you are to Caesar, the greater the fear.
>nothing happend
I was mesmerized by this kino 25 years ago and still am
I wished he surrendered and made it out.
I know charlie and japs look alike, but the VC carry AKs.
absolute kino.
me too bro, me too
I watched it and called scorsese and told him "this is kino, saving private ryan is a theme park ride"
he's been sitting on that for 20 years
I mean anyone who's not a mouthbreather would agree, SPR is literal capeshit
i guess everyone was watching jim cavaziel clips over the weekend
I think this is the movie where I learnt they used coconut water as plasma for surgery
>not learning it from Who Am I
pfft gay
Worst 'Nam movie ever.
i always get these conflict movies mixed up. thought this was the one with that indian guy from joe dirt and nicholas cage.
i always think it's one
malick's best film
One of the best war movies ever made of any era. It is a litmus test on who you are talking, ask them what they thought of Thin Red Line. If they say "boring" and aren't female then you are dealing with a simpleton or immature child.
A war movie without the war. Unwatchable.
What?
Taking the hill is very realistic. The attack on the village is probably the most brutal depiction of close combat done.
Fine. Watch Platoon. You;d hate Paths of Glory, so skip that.
i liked him in casualties of war.
what part of the thin red line is similar or just as boring as the wedding in apocalypse now? and the heroin scene in the deer hunter?
>what part of the thin red line is similar or just as boring as the wedding in apocalypse now
Did you mean the french plantation in Apocalypse Now or the actual wedding in The Deer Hunter? But to answer your question, the parts with the least going on are when Caviezel is hanging around with Melanesians, Bell remembering his wife every once in a while and when the company gets some respite from battle for drinking and musing. I didn't consider any of these bad.
>and the heroin scene in the deer hunter?
How was that boring? I don't remember it being dragged out much. Just a short revelation of how far Nicky has fallen and how his handlers keep him under control to profit off him.
yeah i messed them up.
the wedding scene was in the deer hunter and the heroin one was in redux
>the heroin
he smoked opium, moron-kun
meh, same difference
The wedding scene gets hate but the worst scene in the movie by far was the village battle. Nothing about it made any sense. It should have been cut completely and just skipped from the wedding to the prison.
>Nothing about it made any sense.
yeah civilians think that someone that is in special forces will just magically meet his paratrooper friends in a fire-fight on some no-name village. it just isn't like that.
Are you righteous? Kind? Does your confidence lie in this? Are you loved by all? Know that I was, too. Do you imagine your suffering will be any less because you loved goodness and truth?
>ww2
>somehow made it about Black person worship
One of the best.
They want you dead, or in their lie. Only one thing a man can do. Find something that's his, make an island for himself.
Yeah i did. Boring ass movie.
I'm not sure how many more "Wow, women fricking suck" moments I can take in kinos bros...
My fiance left me a week after going to Tarin Kowt.
>muh I'm afraid you'll die
She called me up when COVID started wanting to get back. Lol, no.
Where that?
Wild West of Afghanistan.
You didn’t see or do shit in that placid part of Afghanistan. Your girl was right to dump you for being sent on vacation.
>The grass is cold
>Muh heart
*japs machine gunning yanks*
>Sun...it shines
*nick nolte yells*
>Has God touched you
*gets cucked*
Ponder more.
No. When I pay to see a war film I want to see war. Not a 7 hour vlog by some skitzo condensed into 3 hours that makes no sense spliced with random shots of sunlight coming through trees and disjointed dialogue.
>ENTERTAIN ME
This used to be my favorite movie. Every time I rewatch it I like it just a little less though.
It ultimately feels like Malick reaching toward a lie, to me. He wants to believe, but the questions ring kind of hollow.
Also the editing and structure in the beginning (before they get to the island for the offensive) kind of suck and you can tell that Witt was not originally the protagonist.
>you can tell that Witt was not originally the protagonist.
Elaborate? Most I've ever heard about Witt not being the intended MC is Brody originally having a big 'heart of the movie' role before it got cut in the edit
the book doesnt have a main character, malick probably tried to do something like that before realizing it doesnt work in a film
I forget the exact dialogue, but the scene when Penn first picks up Whitt and they talk isn't written in a way that makes Whitt seem like a main character. It makes Whitt seem like a hard-headed supporting player.
>assemble a cast of like 30 A+ actors
>completely remove like 25 of them in the final cut
kek that crazy-ass Malik
>Budget: $52 million
this is part of what makes it so good
uncompromising
The monologuing filtered me but apart from that it was kino
kino as FRICK and will filter morons who'd prefer watching some slop like saving private dogshit
no, its one of my favorite movies of all time
its much, MUCH better than SPR
after youve seen spr maybe three times there is no more rewatchability
i will never get tired of TRL
no, it's not flawless , not even close
but it is so human
spr feels like a theme park ride in comparison
why didn't any of them use the fricking helmet strap
Can't let The Man tie you down, brother!
I didn't think the wedding scene was boring but I only watched the film once and wouldn't do it again.
My favorite film. Tfw you will never see a 7h version, damn you T
i watched it when i was coming off from lsd, i didnt like it because i wanted a war movie. i think malick movies might be for spiritual boomers. i'll try again in 10 years.
We will never see Gary Oldman's part. Yes, Gary Oldman was originally going to be in this.
Did he film scenes?
My dad always says that this is the most disappointing war movie he has ever watched because it's a bunch of artistic homosexual antiwar shit. He was disappointed they didn't do the battle justice because my grand uncle fought in it.
>antiwar
hoooly shit, filtered
Your dad sounds like a massive homosexual
Kill Boomers. Behead Boomers. Roundhouse kick Boomers into the concrete. Slam dunk a baby Boomer into the trash can. Crucify filthy Boomers. Defecate into a Boomers food. Launch Boomers into the sun. Stir-fry Boomers in a wok. Toss Boomers into active volcanoes. Urinate into a Boomers gas tank. Judo throw Boomers into a wood chipper. Twist Boomers heads off. Report Boomers to the IRS. Karate chop Boomers in half. Curb stomp pregnant Boomers. Trap Boomers in quicksand. Crush Boomers in the trash compactor. Liquefy Boomers in a vat of acid. Eat Boomers. Dissect Boomers. Exterminate Boomers in the gas chamber. Stomp Boomer skulls with steel-toed boots. Cremate Boomers in the oven. Lobotomize Boomers. Mandatory abortions for Boomers. Grind Boomer fetuses in the garbage disposal. Drown Boomers in fried chicken grease. Vaporize Boomers with a ray gun. Kick old Boomers down the stairs. Feed Boomers to alligators. Slice Boomers with a katana.
You'll be a boomer too some day, and you'll be out of touch and mocked by the future generations who will be even gayer than what we have right now
>You'll be a boomer too some day
literally not how that works
Boomers are a state of mind
it's actually a state of matter between gas and plasma
What the frick is a granduncle?
a grunkle!
a cool uncle
Did your dad serve in Vietnam?
Not that anon but mine did and he likes The Thin Red Line a lot. He introduced me to it years and years ago. Blogposting but he just really enjoys war flicks: Hamburger Hill, We Were Soldiers, Casualties Of War, etc.
Yeah I was just wonder if that anon's dad served, does your dad like Jar Head? I figued someone who didnt serve would say something like what that anons dad said.
>Muh glory.
Unfortunately, there really is much glory to have.
I fell asleep in the middle of it. Does that count?
It's great but why are the US commanders in every war movie just bumbling morons? Did we really get fricked up in the Pacific like morons or is it just a common way for lefty movie makers to paint war in an even worse light?
Most of them are promoted by nepotism. Lot of officers are actually moronic. The smart ones never make it above O5 unless they’re also mentally I’ll.
The blew my butt off scene hasn't aged well. Otherwise 9/10.
Go watch Patton. U.S. commander kino.
Because movies are told from the perspective of lower enlisted or NCO's. At that level much of what you're told to do sounds nonsensical and moronic, but makes sense the higher you go.
Having said that, the Pacific theater was a complete shitshow compared to Europe, as all of your battlefields were disease ridden hell holes on a few square miles, and the enemy were complete fanatics who would suicide charge you rather than surrender.
Yeah. The movie suck balls and this character is a pain in the arse.
i didn't get filtered.
i didn't like it, because it was overacted and boring
picrel is far superior
Nah you got filtered.
Slightly. I thought it was fantastic but after two hours of tension and philosophy, I was exhausted by the time they reached the Japanese garrison and took all those prisoners. I thought it was a great end to the film, and then I saw I still had another 45 minutes left. It's been a couple of days and I haven't finished it yet.
>living with literal subhuman sea monkeys LE GOOD
>blasting away japs and burning them alive and cool explosions LE BAD
