It's sad when someone is so close to grasping the situation, but is still too set in their ways to comprehend it. He talks about big media companies and their underhanded methods with such detail on the film side, but then says when he wants to see the news, his sources are the New York Times and CNN?
White boomers worship black people like the meme. They are in love with themselves, their liberal religion, and the successful (mostly childless) ones are so far insulated from having to actually interact with black people they can continue living in the fairytale world in their heads.
t. one half of the family is exactly like that (they're c**ts btw)
To be fair it's not just the boomers, it's still happening even now with anons here too, dismissing those media outlets on one topic while citing them in another for their arguments here.
I actually had to pay for shit and I realize that every dollar I put into SS is going to be spent on them instead of me. Boomers got cheap college, steady jobs out of highschool, and a culture that wasn't totally Blackfied, yet they still wanted to tear it down. They are children.

They don’t though
They just know the boomerisms.
Go to any boomer forum on something like carburetor repair or mustang street rodding. Now that the boomers are aging out huge advances are being made in the community. For decades boomers just made up lies and ignored young engineers with ideas.

You are still just pointing out that they are terrible at sharing and won't even share their knowledge with the next generation which is just going to bit them in the ass when they get old and nobody has what is needed to take care of them.
Yep. They're running a long obsolete version of israeli propaganda so what they say sounds nonsensical. Its like they're trapped in a israeli illusion from half a century ago. The right wing ones at least understand that something is wrong, they're just so conditioned to not see the israelites or recognize the patterns that they'll never truly understand what's happening. Unrestrained israeli media influence after ww2 has done incalculable damage to the true (white) american people
He's always straddling the line honestly. The man's been that way for a long time.
like so many people, he has this absurd blind spot where he'll say 'you can't go back to the past, everything's always changing, often for the worse' but then he gets his opinions from news outlets that were respectable 40 years ago and doesn't make the obvious connection
he's a boiled frog
>haha Whiteness is dying and that's a good thing. Get with the times! >REEEE NO ONE LIKES MOVIES LIKE MINE ANYMORE DAMN ZOOMERS AND THEIR FRICKING PHONES
It's like parody but sad.
Reminds me of an interview with David Crosby from about a decade ago. It was the last and final time I listened to NPR. The guy was like 70-something years old and totally delusional. Like he was stuck in this flower power mentality where America is just a precious child having a "phase." How do these guys get to be that age and they still don't get it. At least Carpenter admits that he consumes the propaganda, but he clearly doesn't recognize it. Mentally, they're stuck in a long-gone time where anything was possible.
>trump is a madness cult, they want to go back in time, manufacturing, cheap jobs etc, that's delusional, usa is changing >reee i want movie business to be like it was in 70s
>q: what do you think about X >a: i don't know, what do you think about it >q: blah blah >a: i agree completely >i watch cnn
glad to see he also thinks the Allan character was a tremendous homosexual
I didn't really give a shit about Michael Cera in the past decade but that role makes me hate him
I agree with him completely, the whole movie was like visiting an alien culture, where you can't relate or understand most of it. Anything they introduced to me was like smoke, you couldn't touch it, you couldn't hold it either, and it had no shape except whatever you imagined it to be, and with no frame of reference I imagined nothing.
You should watch the trilogy since they're all great fricking movies, but each one can also stand on their own since they were made years apart and don't share any characters.
Watch Body Bags too. It was supposed to be a TV series, but got cancelled so they just made it into an anthology. Carpenter is in it and plays a sort of Crypt Keeper character who introduces the stories. You can tell he's having fun. It's based.
Everything from Dark Star to In the Mouth Madness. After that just Vampires and Cigarette Burns. Although, if you want perspective, watch them all, so you know a master is capable of doing shit (Village of the Damned, Escape from LA, Ghosts of Mars, Pro-Life, The Ward).
Cigarette Burns was very enjoyable. Proved he still had it in him. Tbh I used to watch Ghosts of Mars all the time in high school and still think of it fondly. My wife and I just recently saw Escape From LA for the first time and actually really enjoyed it. It’s more of a tongue in cheek parody of LA than a proper movie, but we are in on the joke so that probably helped a lot. Loved the ending, too. One of Snake’s greatest moments.
I wont lie, i caught 20 minutes of it and I genuinely couldnt tell if it was a satire or not. MK Ultra levels of visuals ands juxtaposing tones. I get occult vibes from Barbie
>there's a patriarchy business in there, but I missed the whole thing. Right over my head. But I think she's fabulous, Margot Robbie
absolutely based footchad confirmed
same as the boomer girl i invited to the movie. she fell asleep pretty quickly. took a sip of her lemonade, it tasted like peppermint from her lip gloss.
And old guy says he watched a movie and turned out it wasn’t for him and he’s able to openly admit it without resorting to whining and throwing a tantrum over it. He was being an adult. A foreign concept to many people posting here who think every single movie has to always pander to their tastes specifically or it’s shit.
Man I love JC's movies and music, but he has the worst fricking opinions on everything, and most of his interviews are "yeah I don't care about any of my old movies, I just smoke weed and play vidya these days".
He stopped caring on anything since long time ago. Dunno why people still took him seriously these days and this is coming from a fan of his. Like one time developers of F.E.A.R. 3 hired him to direct some cutscenes for them and he didn't even go to the office to do any of stuff they paid him to do.
I also realized some time ago that he'll basically attach his name to anything if he gets a paycheck out of it and has to put in very minimal effort, which is kind of sad. I suppose I'd do the same in his position, though.
>sits at home all day playing video games and occasionally catching new movies when they come to streaming
He's literally me except I was never a successful filmmaker or musician
>mfw you will never be JC
you could take up smoking
blackpilled
>old boomer mischaracterizes the trump movement
not surprising

homie thinks the banks are controlled by evangelicals who want to limit promiscuity. What did you expect?
Boomers never grew up. They still act like it's the 60s and they're fighting "the man".
you have no place to criticize anyone else's maturity

It's such a relief you morons are staying out of public

I accept your concession, have fun on reddit. Goodbye
Yeah, just trust YouTub- I mean Rumble streamers for news coverage!

Dang I just realized you're a CIA agent
Best bit right here
Left wing boomers, especially white male ones, are possibly the most embarrassing demographic on the face of the planet
Carpenter is 100% right here, so what's the problem?
Nice bait, its too early for the (you)'s you're after though. Board is dead right now

what a moron
Its always baffling to me why people listen to entertainers about politics or phosophy or religion. The dude made some slop, he's not some deep guru.
He made some great movies, but he was replaced by a guy in a skinsuit after he released "They Live"
Yeah and making a good flick does not make you some spiritual or political sage
Every John Carpenter interview is
>I don't give a shit about movies I just wanna play Sonic the Hedgehog and collect royalties
he just like me fr fr
he just like me except for the whole making the best horror movie of all time part.
i hope someone helped him out on Last of us 2 so he could at least finish the game
Lmao what? The game even have those weird option for guiding blind players.
To be fair he is 75.
>Jak and Daxter
holy shit my guy is based fr fr
He has such shitty taste in games. All of the "gaymer" celebs play actual trash.
I like this better if I read it in Trump's voice.
glad to see he also thinks the Allan character was a tremendous homosexual
I didn't really give a shit about Michael Cera in the past decade but that role makes me hate him

youre making it sound like fellini satyricon or some shit dude
what john carpenter movies should i watch?
ive seen the thing, escape from new york, big trouble little china, and halloween
also what other movies have scores that you think are comparable to classic carpenter?
i think william friedkin's exorcist and sorcerer
Christine and Assault on Precinct 13
thanks frens
They live
They live has one of the best scenes in all of cinema, great movie
the one where the woman realizes she's fricking the alien?
>also what other movies have scores that you think are comparable to classic carpenter?
Day of the Dead
?t=70
ah yea that looks cool, havent seen too much of the zombie genre
does it stand alone or better to watch the trilogy?
You should watch the trilogy since they're all great fricking movies, but each one can also stand on their own since they were made years apart and don't share any characters.
In the Mouth of Madness
> also what other movies have scores that you think are comparable to classic carpenter?
Stuart Gordons Reanimator and From Beyond.
Just watch all of them.
Watch Body Bags too. It was supposed to be a TV series, but got cancelled so they just made it into an anthology. Carpenter is in it and plays a sort of Crypt Keeper character who introduces the stories. You can tell he's having fun. It's based.
Somebody post the quote where he talks mad shit on Cronenberg
Vampires, ya prick.
it looks cool
why were critics so gay about it tho?
Add They Live in you've seen all of Carpenter's stuff that's worth seeing.
Everything from Dark Star to In the Mouth Madness. After that just Vampires and Cigarette Burns. Although, if you want perspective, watch them all, so you know a master is capable of doing shit (Village of the Damned, Escape from LA, Ghosts of Mars, Pro-Life, The Ward).
Cigarette Burns was very enjoyable. Proved he still had it in him. Tbh I used to watch Ghosts of Mars all the time in high school and still think of it fondly.

I'll recommend Prince of Darkness because no one mentioned it yet.
without knowing anything about it it aside the director, this still has me interested
PoD is great. I rewatched it recently
> I missed the whole thing, right over my head.
This is him politically avoiding making a comment on what he most likely thought was dumb horseshit.
I wont lie, i caught 20 minutes of it and I genuinely couldnt tell if it was a satire or not. MK Ultra levels of visuals ands juxtaposing tones. I get occult vibes from Barbie
Based Carpenter
I wish he went out on tour again, would really love to see him live
>The movie is goyslop, but Robbie is attractive
TRUTHNUKE
Heh, not really if you think about it. No body, no breasts, face buried under 2 inches of makeup, approaching 40 years old.
He like Margot Robbie because most of his movies bomb at the box office too.
>there's a patriarchy business in there, but I missed the whole thing. Right over my head. But I think she's fabulous, Margot Robbie
absolutely based footchad confirmed
same as the boomer girl i invited to the movie. she fell asleep pretty quickly. took a sip of her lemonade, it tasted like peppermint from her lip gloss.
>boomer girl i invited to the movie
dude straight taking 70 year olds to the movies.
Who cares. The only thing he ever made is the thing.
Even if that was true, The Thing is better than anythign made in modern era combined and multiplied by 100
Annihilation did it better.
Annihilation is dogshit movie and wouldn't hold a candle to the thing even if it was a candle holder instead of a shit movie
reads like the average Cinemaphile user

It wasn't for him becasue he knows good movies and Barbie was woke and dogshit.
Deal with it.
I never know when he's joking
