Fricking hell, it’s S Y N T H W A V E.
There’s a difference. Synthwave is cool, dark, moody and propulsive, the kind of track you listen to when you’re driving at night ready to fricking kill someone. Vaporwave is slower, sad, brighter in a lot of ways. It reflects a time long past, one that might not have ever existed, but one that is indescribably nostalgic. It’s what you listen to when you’re driving at night and considering visiting that old mall you used to frequent so often as a kid, fixated on the good times and leaving the bad in a blurry haze.
Listen to HOME, 2814, Macross 82-99, Saint Pepsi. That’s fricking Vaporwave, and as far as I know no one’s utilized that dreamy, sad, ethereal, broken down aesthetic in a motion picture yet (that was intentionally going for Vaporwave anyway).
thank you
I thought that was just dark wave
Ever experienced the new wave? Next wave? Dream wave? OR cyberpunk?
yeah
Updoot
home is synthwave, macross is future funk, saint pepsi actually is vaporwave but borders on mallsoft. the genres are kind of insane and hard to nail down anyway but categorizing those artists all as vaporwave is wrong. Macintosh Plus would be the best example you could use to define vaporwave and show how its nothing like the drive soundtrack.
I was looking into trance music, listened to a "progressive psytrance mix", thought, hm, I wonder if I like psychedelic trance in particular. Looked that up, I did not. Turns out what I like is called progressive trance. I still have no idea what defines any of them.
fpbp, as a fellow synthwave autist thank you and i hate vapourwave
musical subgenre snobs make me sick
Damn, dude.
I wouldn't mind cruising around with you killing motherfrickers listening to synthwave.
I love vaporwave and similar musical subgenres, but mostly just for their dreamy aesthetic.
Did anyone else think this was going to be some dystopian kino
I was just too afraid to watch Bronson or Valhalla Rising, kek.
Who the frick is afraid to watch a movie LMAO, what's it gonna do, jump out of the screen and grab you? It's a movie.
I can't resist. My body is urging me to say it.

I saw District 9 when I was ~8 and thought it was real, scared the shit out of me, I had nightmares about becoming a prawn for like a year
K, you watch the film about uk's most notorious criminal and what I can only imagine as The Northman but with more torture porn, mr. Snuff guru.
I have already watched both Bronson and Valhalla Rising. Valhalla Rising is mainly just Mads beating the shit out of everyone and not talking the whole movie, and Bronson has surprisingly little fighting for being about Britain's "most violent criminal." Neither of them come close to Only God Forgives in terms of violence.
I thought it was gonna be a fast and furious knock off so I didn't bother to watch it for years untill I learned it wasn't
first of all, it's synthwave. Second, shitload of movies nowadays have a synth soundtrack
Doesn't Good Time have a soundtrack sort of like that?
Good Time soundtrack is honestly way more synthy than Drive. Drive's soundtrack is like this weird pop shit with some girl singing about bullshit, not sure how it became synonymous with synthwave.
Good Time's soundtrack was done by Daniel Lopatin, the same guy that did Eccojams.
This is just the same few seconds of Africa by Toto, repeated over and over. People listen to this kind of music?
It's pure atmosphere.
So you're supposed to put it on in the background while you're doing something else?
If you guys want a real experience, consider the following.
Pretend Drive is the prequel to Payback and Wrath of Man is the sequel to Payback. I don't even think you have to watch them in that order, but they all make sense as a sort of trilogy.
Could you explain the narrative? I’m curious? Also which version of Payback, theatrical or directors cut?
Do there really need to be constant threads about this gay shit? Yeah, I get you're a gay and like movies starring homosexuals, fricking stop
Cinemaphile endlessly seething about Barbie will never stop being funny.
Michael Mann directed a couple. Vaporwave can be a retroactive aesthetic/sensorial concept
Which ones?
Not him but I'd say Thief and Manhunter, and To Live and Die in LA by Friedkin
There needs to be a movie with this aesthetic. Animated or live action, whichever works.
Sometimes I put on mallsoft as background noise
Watch Too Old To Die Young.
>season 1
I am doubtful there will be a season 2.
Cold In July had a banger soundtrack.

>How Many Men Can One Bullet Kill?
That depends entirely on the caliber of the bullet and whether you retrieve it from the body afterwards.
it makes it more kino
morons will hear one Kavinsky song and say the whole soundtrack is 80s retro new wave shit.
human bean and under your spell were also retro synth songs
Chromatic- Running Up The Hill

There are three types of people, ~97% are of the mimic type. It's why most Cinemaphile threads are just supposed people endlessly repeating what somebody else posted. They originate nothing, they espouse Cinemaphile knowledge to participate and feel better about their station as mimic. It's the same reason TikTok became so popular, the mimics could easily copy others and get a jolt of positive feelings related to receiving attention or belonging.
All successful animals are exceptional at mimicry. Innovation, invention, creativity is very expensive and has a high rate of failure. It makes sense that most people are wired to just copy what works to better propagate the species. It's what keeping up with the Joneses is about.
>Three types
What are the other two types?
People who can extrapolate from incomplete data sets.
Did you know 99.6% of people make up percentages
I saw Maniac 2012 recently and it was like Drive if it were a slasher. The opening scene with him driving around stalking women was especially similar. But the sudden pan to Elijah Wood's eyes surpassed Drive's opening.
I am more of a shopwave kind of guy.

Just watched the film, holy kino...
More films with MC like this and Blade Runner, "silent" protagonist suffering, dark, autism.
Did you watch it because of this thread?
No, I just browsed Cinemaphile because I wanted to see reviews or people opinions online.
I see. Well, I recommend checking out Only God Forgives next, it's much the same aesthetic and it even has Ryan Gosling.

Thanks going to download it right away
