Oh i understand nice list man. I think Dunkirk was a very good movie, it's one of Nolan's best work overall. My favourites are Nolan, Fincher and Scorsese also.

Scorsese has also great consistency, and given that one of his best movies was just 6 years ago, i think he's pretty much one of the directors were you can't go wrong.

I have good expectations for Tenet, i don't think it's going to be TDK level but neither is going to be a flop imo. Also, i use this site sometime but do you use discord groups/reddit also?

I agree on the Fincher part, for example i think "The Game" is a very underrated gem that he has made, his best cinematography and story alongside Se7en.

In the last few years I haven’t visited any movie websites except Flickchart, and even here my posting and general involvement have been at an all-time low.

I started distancing myself from movie websites after the shutdown of IMDB message boards which - I still believe - was by far the best place to discuss film with fellow fans. Once that happened I started devoting less and less time to film discussion as well as film viewing. So these days I’m not posting on Reddit, Letterboxd and other related forums. Just haven't found a suitable replacement for IMDB.

TheFireRises on 4/12/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

Oh i see. I also miss those IMDB boards tbh. They were nice and there was a lot of discussion, I don't know if you were around when TDK was released. It was something unique for a comic book movie. I remember seeing every type of users in those type of threads.

I'd also reccomend Reddit compared to Letterboxd which is just an inferior flickchart overall.

Did you like Hobbs and Shaw and Fast Five? I recently watched them and I thought they were well crafted action flicks, not great not bad. In the 7/8 out of 10.

PiccoloKing on 4/13/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

I wasn't around when TDK was released but yes, I was around at the time of TDKR's release. We would engage in discussions on IMDB for hours on end. It was a very memorable time indeed.

You’re right, Reddit does look better. Some of my friends have asked me to join Letterboxd but to this day I don’t see the appeal of that place.

Haven’t watched the films you mentioned yet. But I probably could take out time for them given the lockdown and all.

TheFireRises on 4/13/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

Oh I remember the TDKR says. The movie started out with a 9+ out of 10 by the public and has hold up pretty well in the site to be honest. It did blow away the avengers hype at the time, because looking back at them. I think TDKR is the superior film.

Letterboxd has pretty much slower discussion and it's very bland. If you want join Reddit, it’s very active and I use it alongside this. Still, the IMDb board were very active with polls, discussions and details every day.

Id reccomend them as they’re good pop corn flicks. I have downloaded The Predator 1 and 2 and honestly I’d say the first is a pretty good movie overall. I liked the pacing and the action. 8/10

Nice. What do you think of Di Caprio, Matt Damon and Jackie Chan mate, and what's your favourite movie of them? For me it's The Departed and Rush Hour respectively.

MaximusSamus on 4/19/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

Jackie is a classic star. I love the majority of his movies and his roles. Di Caprio is popular and really good too. In a ton of great movies. Matt Damon i really like too, though I don't love everything he's in. He's probably the weaker of the three. Are they your favorites?

My favorite Jackie Chan movie is probably The Forbidden Kingdom with Jet Li, but Rush Hour and the original Police Story are close behind. Favorite Damon movies would be Saving Private Ryan, Downsizing & The Departed respectively. Favorite Leo movies would be Titanic, Inception & OUATIH.

TheFireRises on 4/20/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

Some of my favorites yes. Bale, DiCaprio and probably Damon is my top 3.

Ledger's Joker and Pitt's Fight Club are some of the best performances.

Did you enjoy Rush Hour 2 and Bourne?

MaximusSamus on 4/24/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

Ledger's Joker is legendary. Pitt is excellent in Fight Club - I agree. One of my favorite performances of all time is The Master with both Joaquin Phoenix and Philip Seymour Hoffman. I mean Phoenix straight up outshines Hoffman in the interrogation scene. Best acting I've seen in my life is probably in that scene and that's when I realized that Phoenix is probably the best actor currently living. I mean Daniel Day-Lewis is great as well - Phantom Thread is phenomenal. Plus you have him in There Will be Blood and Gangs of New York as well. Not to mention Lincoln even.

Yeah, those are some favorites of mine. Rush Hour 2 and 3 are great. Personally, I don't care for the Bourne series much. I marathoned them before the latest one came out and I was largely bored with them. I much prefer Bond or Mission: Impossible. But I do plan on revisiting Bourne in the future.

TheFireRises on 4/25/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

Personally i agree with thoe takes. But the last Bourne was ok, nothing special just a good action flick. Are the Mission impossibles worth watching?

MaximusSamus on 4/28/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

I certainly would say so. A few of them are forgettable for me, here and there. I love the original 3 and then the newest one - Fallout - is spectacular. It's action-espionage at its absolute finest. I've got big nostalgia for the first 3 and really enjoyed the 4th and 5th upon release but they never sat with me like the first 3. Then the 6th came out and was the best of the second half of the series.
I would love to hear your thoughts on them if you ever got around to them. I'm a big Cruise fan as well.

TheFireRises on 5/7/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

i agree with this. Some were ok and so goes for the others. I think they're top action movies, overall. A league above the likes of Crank, rush hour, bad boys etc.

TDKR suffers really bad from a rushed post-production stage. Parts of the film feel unfinished from the colour correction to the editing and sound design. Also the fucking aspect ratio changes are absolutely atrocious. The film just doesn't hold up well compared to it's predecessors. It's not bad, but it's far from the other two.

Nice, some og users always comeback. Just wondering but why there was a Nolanites vs Marvelites rivalry in the past?

PiccoloKing on 6/14/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

Prior to 2012, the rivalry existed because of tension between two users, SquareMaster316 and the dozens of Marvelite sock accounts handled by – what I believe – is the same person. This tension reached a fever pitch in 2012 when TDKR and The Avengers were released within a gap of a few months. All hell broke loose during those months and the proverbial Pandora’s box was opened, never to be closed again. Even the neutrals of Flickchart, who enjoyed both Nolan and MCU, were forced to pick one side as a consequence of this bitter partition. This is my earliest memory of the Nolanites vs Marvelites rivalry.

I’ll also recount the gist of the war that was waged in those days. The Marvelites argued that The Avengers is better than TDK/TDKR precisely because it is quality mindless entertainment and makes no pretension of being otherwise. They argued that TDK/TDKR attempt to be high-brow and profound cinema but fail miserably, and end up being neither mindless entertainment for the masses nor artistic cinema for the serious cinephiles. But I was never fooled by their specious reasoning, which can be reduced to a simple analogy. The Avengers is rotten fungus-infested junk food but that’s exactly what it wanted to be the whole time. In that regard it is a success. TDK/TDKR, according to the Marvelites, wanted to be the carefully-prepared delicacy of a high-end restaurant but ended up being a burnt and overcooked failure of a dish. But here’s the thing: even the biggest failure of one is more edible than the greatest success of the other. The lack of artistic ambition on Marvel’s part can’t and shouldn’t be used to Nolan’s detriment. Nolan’s superhero films are far from failures in my opinion, but even if they were Marvel still has no chance of matching them because it aims for the lowest common denominator, while Nolan doesn’t with his Batman films. At the end of the day, even the greatest success of a movie like American Pie has no chance of measuring up to the biggest failure of a film like Apocalypse Now.

I'm glad that they are finally stopping people to comment a bunch of times. Some marvel fans such as Cxfate and CaptainMarvelous keep spamming them. Personally I believe that the Nolan films are much better than the Avengers... What’s complex about seeing Hulk fighting the hulkbuster?


Square... atleast he was backing up Nolan. Is he a knowledgeable user?

OT: I just saw T2, and it’s still the best action film.

Hi. Christopher Nolan, Martin Scorsese , Quentin Tarantino, David Fincher and Spielberg are my favorites.

I also like Kubrick, Cameron and Snyder but haven't seen much of their filmography.

MeanPoop on 6/25/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

Thanks for replying
Mine are:
1. Michael Haneke
My favourites of his films are: Funny Games, The Piano Teacher
2. Andrei Tarkovsky
My favourites of his films are: Solaris, Stalker
3. Andrzej Zulawski
My favourite of his films is: Possession
4. Alejandro Jodorowsky
My favourites of his films are: El Topo, The Holy Mountain
5. Panos Cosmatos
My favourite of his films is: Beyond the Black Rainbow

As for my thoughts on your favourites. I've enjoyed most of Nolan's filmography due to his very ambitious and often ways of telling his stories. My favourite of Nolan's films is Memento. I haven't seen much of Scorsese filmography but can already tell he has a love for complex and layered characters which I really appreciate. My favourite of his films is Taxi Driver. From what I've seen of Tarantino I find him a tad overrated but have enjoyed his creativity and his direction of actors. My favourite of his that I've seen so far is Pulp Fiction. David Fincher to my eye is the best director currently working in the Hollywood mainstream due to his extreme technical skill and perfectionism as well as his love for telling uncompromising stories that other Hollywood directors might shy away from telling. My favourite of Fincher's films is Fight Club(obviously). I think Spielberg is a decent director and has made some fun and decent films but find his unintentional influence on the direction commercial cinema has headed to be a topic of a slight sadness to me. Nevertheless, I still enjoy his films, my favourite of his being Jaws.

Just saw Tenet, and it was good but not one of Nolan's best in my opinion. Still worth a rewatch for sure.

I'll start a movie break until Wonder Woman1984, but i'm also interested in the new James Bond movie at the moment.

Hi. I have seen all of them and would recommend Resevpir Dogs, Django Unchained and Jackie Brown. I didn’t like the Kill Bill movies much.

About Nolan, I enjoyed Insomnia a good while and Tenet too which has more rewatch value than Insomnia. The movie is kinda confusing at start but it delivers, with good action scenes and good performances. Not one of Nolan's best but a solid movie overall, you should see if you can.

Thanks for the recommendations.

In response to your question, overall, the film was a mixed bag of moments where I was not invested and moments where I was intensely involved and interested by what was happening on screen. But overall, I'm unsure whether there were more moments I enjoyed or if there were more moments where I was not interested. I'm leaning more towards the possibility that there were more moments I enjoyed but I'm not sure. I also miss Hans Zimmer as composer. What about you?

TheFireRises on 9/2/2020 Reply  ·  Like  ·  (0 likes)

It was a good film overall, the plot is a bit confusing and convoluted on the first watch tbh. I haven’t rewatched it but I liked the action scenes and the soundtrack. The actors did also a good job. It’s not nearly as good as The Dark Knight or Inception but I would say that it's worth watching a few times for sure. Yeah, Zimmer would've been better for sure. 7.5/10 out of 10.

TDKR has a few flaws and once you get over them, it's quite a lot more enjoyable and has great highs in the movie (Plane scene, Batman vs Bane, Gordon's acting etc) so I might have overall enjoyed it more than Tenet.

The only one where I am not sure Tenet is worse than is Insomnia from Nolan. I remember that the plot and acting was overall better in Insomnia tho.

I’m doing well mate. Just wanted to share with you why I love Flickchart so much and why I keep returning to this site after almost a decade of posting.
* Its unique concept of pitting one film against another – Flickchart is one of a kind in that regard.
* Nice closely knit community: Commenting on Flickchart is like living in a cozy little town where everyone knows everyone. Even the trolls of Flickchart are okay in that they are annoying but never outright malicious.
* The movie posters/pictures: This is the most underrated aspect of Flickchart because its contribution to the site’s iconic look is so overlooked. Flickchart has an enormous collection of the coolest-looking movie posters/pictures you will ever see – the kind you’d like to hang on your bedroom walls. Sometimes I find myself clicking refresh repeatedly just to admire all the artistic posters of my favorite movies.
* Lack of censorship: I respect Flickchart greatly for being perhaps the only forum where one can share even controversial opinions freely, without fearing termination. YouTube, IMDB, Facebook and every other online community has succumbed to liberal censorship but not Flickchart, whose freedom of expression I find really refreshing and important. Any other platform would’ve banned me a long time ago.

Which is a standard rise and fall story, plus I honestly enjoyed the ending of Departed way more, the soundtrack is better and I saw it before. Goodfellas is great but an 8/10 at best meanwhile departed is my third favorite film and has DiCaprio, which is my favorite actor or 2nd favorite one.

It's worse than TDK, for everyone (me too). but it's considered a good- to great film overall, in most sites, some love it and some hate it. It has a weird rep, but i also love it a lot, it has flaws but the scope, acting, cinematography and enterteinment factor is top tier.

Being said -- I've liked all Bourne films, they're great, another amazing one is the Mission Impossible trilogy.

I liked dune, no time to die, didn't like Halloween Kills or Ghostbusters Afterlife at all.

Have yet to see Old, Last Night in Soho, Last Duel and MCU films except black widow which was decent.

Also, I rarely post there anymore as i use other boards atm.

I've watched Bleeder and Pusher films from Refn and Edgar Wright films, i reccomend them if you wanna see some genre film that isn't long

TDK is rated very high in both sites actually.

Yeah, I definitely wish I had a bit more free time for movies, but life keeps getting in the way.

Really? In 10 years?

No, that total would represent all the movies I've seen in general.

I watched it at late screening, a few days ago and really enjoyed it. Between a 7.5 and an 8, I wanna watch it again once it comes out on blu ray.

Loved the villains, action, fan service, soundtrack worked. Cinematography and directing were ok, pacing needed a bit improvement in first half.

Overall, I think Electro was improved and Lizard was the weakest out the villains. I also liked how spider man did not rely on Iron Man this time, so basically; the inclusion of the other two spider man works, but they are not directly related to him, in that sense; it works well.

Yeah, very interested as it's my favorite character of all time

I hope it's around the same level of BB or even Batman 89 so a 7 or 8, as i think it won't touch TDK or TDKR.
