Are they the poets? What do you do?

Thanks for asking. What do you guys do?

Then it boils down to whether it was conscious/ commenting with/ on structure or not. You think it was fully consciously commenting on the current vacuous person taken up with/ propelled by VR landscape video game, who is at the same time its originator, as the autistic demi god (maybe like...

Never seen either - must watch

Romanticism for experiences no longer possible: due to corporate colonization/ digi world/ panopticon within and as you drive (LA has one speed camera unlike here (maybe the west side has some, do know), and even if it flashes it gets thrown out because it’s unconstitutional or something else...

Yes/ artist moving image. But also work in LA industry and on some films in this thread but only equipment end (apply aforementioned factors as to why)…been stuck here since travel ban over a year tho

?

Sorry I was being dumb, re read. Yes guess so, and the trick is to get enough money to do both: through having worked on enough junk, without injury, with luck, a massive will, popularity, a green card, all the best connections and 2+ years of savings to start with be able to implement this path

Because it might be how like younger people I know from work revere the 80s: wasn’t it good back when rather than pastiche, since this film is like that age group. You don’t think this is subtly different from regular (earlier) postmodernism? I do.

Nah sorry - I reckon that’s try-hard meta referencing postmodern films like those we discussed earlier yesterday… very fact 80s ones are mentioned may point to badness (as in not good) of this movie! Afterall the 80s had a slew of bad noirs right?

I don’t understand?

No, I can’t commit to that, sorry, but do agree that the film has in the past been used as a measure 📏 by many extolling the virtues of that type of thing. Can’t say more without re watching. What do you think is great about it?

Yes! And it wasn’t made as pastiche! They were serious - so yeah exactly this, thanks for the right words - LaLa Land the same, Atomic Blonde etc… & not only isolation in LA but isolation in fake, shallow yet no connection with that isolation even… Very zeitgeisty like a rhizome of LA l, like...

nowhere have I claimed this or implied it

Rust - don’t think I’ll be seeing that now

Have not watched in at least 2 decades, tried but got too irritated/ bored. Yes it’s touted right up there. We know. If you said “that film was no Citizen Kane” I would say thank god what’s it about then? Drive does it’s descriptor also. Is that a thing to determine something’s experience...

Like a video game - it’s fake. He is fake. There is no feeling for/ from him, including no non-feeling like stoneface. He might as well be CGI like pretty much every film I have seen him in. This film is an LA fantasy that people drive around there imagining themselves to be in, enacting the...

The difference is that James Dean etc bring the film with them; their embodiment. Gosling is an extra in an atmosphere. It draws on so many films and not in a cute way. It draws on them like genre, like superheroes,like Netflix deliverables cinematography. Gosling has no character, he might as...
