What is with this new generation of filmmakers and them having absolutely no artistic integrity or respect for cinema at all?

Michael Curtiz, I didn't have to look it up.
Even if his statement was true, he still remembers Casablanca. I can't think of a way to frame it that isn't incredibly retarded
I thought it was orson welles
reflective of society as a whole
Athens lost its dominance over the region and the classical period of Ancient Greece was over near the end of Socrates life. This is not an own, Socrates was right, things were going downhill
he was also responsible for making the youth EVEN WORSE and appropriately executed for it
Just look at America slowly becoming Canada. Once the Republicans are dead, the US will be no more.
>Gets executed for corrupting the youth
>baby boomers in ancient Greece
That isn't true at all, Many filmmakers who got their names in the 70s or earlier are still widely remembered. He's just a whiny homosexual
You have to accomplish something to be remembered, O Precious Snowflake Affirmative Action Hire.
To be fair, Cascablanca was made in a time when directors were almost a non entity as far as public perception of a given film went for most people. Everything was really under the thumb of the studio system, and it wasn't till the 60's that you started to see great numbers of directors breaking out of that and developing the auteur reputation that directors are associated with today. In a post cinema world of streaming 'content,' I can see things easily going back to the older paradigm.
not really true
Yes it is. Directors were not household names at the time. Curtiz was one of the most prolific studio directors so his name is not known as an individual artist but he was still very accomplished
It's overexaggerated
certain directors were clamped down on, like Welles, but others, like Ford and Hitchcock, enjoyed great freedom. All three of these men are GOATed either way.
The Hays Code was also better for film regardless, but that's a different matter.
That's preposterous. New Hollywood gave Directors greater prominence. Hitchcock and Ford were outliers compared to Spielberg, Scorsese, DePalma, Lucas, Romero, etc. to such an extent we are going to see Spike Lee and Tarantino and Kevin Smith movies *because* they directed them and for no other reason.
What's not true? A number of directors have talked about the iron grip that the studio system had in the 40s/50s. I'm not saying no films got made that had directorial vision, only the studios had a huge influence in shaping consensus at the time, and minimized the role of writers and directors as much as possible. It's not too far off from the way Disney, or the streaming companies work today.
wtf, is his name really tiki tiki walla bing bang?
No, it's Taika, which is a kind of Japanese drum and he was born on Waititi, which is one of the Hawaiian islands. Show some sensitivity you butthole.
It is not. It’s actually Cohen.
Not everyone has their mom's last name, usually people have their dad's last name. You're unusual because you don't know your dad
You're not doing anything edgy by pointing out israelites in Hollywood, but the fact that you think what you're doing is edgy is a sign that you're being controlled.
Kike is mad
>Not everyone has their mom's last name
Taika David Cohen does, for some reason.
>people have their dad's last name
Unless they are born out of wedlock like David Cohen
The Simpsons writer? Or do Zoomers only like the Chuck Fuck and Suck thing
You are six seconds late
What happened?
dey tooker
No, it isn't. It's David Cohen
David Cohens films won’t be remembered. That’s for sure.
>none of us are going to be rememb-ACK
nah, it's just you, Taika COHEN
Eagle vs Shark was comfy kino though
>comedy goon
>"filmmaker"
doomer zoomers and millenials are pathetic
I don't watch shit by or listen to brownies with stupid weird names. I just don't! Sorry!!
a talmudic israelite disrespecting one of the best and most prolific israeli kino makers in the last 140 years
>>why are modern israelites like that?
Even in his example, everyone at least knows Humphrey Bogart's name
no one know 1 literally who directon but everyone knows orson welles, alfred hitchcock, and howard hughes
grrat directors are remebered just as much as great films
he just isnt one or as made any
He's right. 99.99% of peopel don't care about old movies.
But everyone knew who wrote Shakespeare
Reminder that Taika Waititi’s name is David Cohen
Wings of Redemption or Boogie will be more remembered than any director of any marvel movie
You can't remember the name of the director of Casablana...
ergo...
I can make shit movies.
Is this guy for real?
Zamn... we're just like... dust in the wind, man...
dont worry takiki i will always remember you as the new Zealand guy that played Hitler.
He has a good point though. Just make film for film's sake. Who gives a fuck if you get famous off of it, or make piles of money. All the golden age stars are dead, their fame withers away. What remains is that they did amazing works for their time, whether that's remembered or not.
>NOOO YOU HAVE TO MAKE MEMORABLE SLOP WITH COPYRIGHTED CHARACTERS THAT WE CAN USE IN PERPETUITY
