At some point recently archive.org excluded all 8ch.net related links
Here is a still existing archive of the old board: https://archive.fo/07wKl#selection-1953.0-1953.12
It's unfortunate that a lot of those images were lost, especially from the shots/stills thread. Does anyone have a working archive of the old board, possibly with images? I still liked going back to it once every several months and finding something new. I miss the collages.
There is also this but it is only stills: https://web.archive.org/web/20200728024531/https://julay.world/film/res/108.html
As I was looking through this stuff I found that this url still exists: https://8ch.net/film/ 
I didn't know that 8kun reacquired it.

Just finished The Faculty, coming to us from Robert Rodriguez and Kevin Williamson. Overall, I found the movie entertaining. It's basically a cross between Invasion Of The Body Snatchers and The Thing, while taking place in a high school setting.

And I don't know why, but it continues my belief that the "sweet spot" for the best American horror films was during the latter half of the 90's. You got hits like Final Destination and Event Horizon, but then scorned films that I happened to enjoy like Deep Rising and Virus.

I've been wanting to put my hands on Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, maybe trim down the running time and move around some awkwardly placed T.V./Movies scenes? But I don't know if it's worth the time so,

>What's the consensus on fan re-edits?
This my coming to it from a video game context, seeing companies releasing endless remakes and remasters left and right, but FUCK anyone and everyone that  thinks that a movie can be "improved" by editting the snot out of it and declaring it the "definitive experience". This applies to the fucking studios and directors as much as the fans. You only have ONE chance to release this shit, so get it right the first time or don't even bother. And, no, I don't accept that you "ran out of time" or that you have to comply with someone's stupid "restrictions". You knew the rules and circumstances going in, so either learn to live with it and work around them or expect to get fucked over in the process. Because the absolutely worst thing to experience as a person going into any material is to sit down, experience something, come away loving/hating it, and then be told at a later date that I "experienced it wrong" because all that means for me is that I ended up wasting all that fucking time and emotional investment over nothing.

Perhaps these edits are worth debating for academic purposes, but no one else gives a shit.

 A lot of people tend to look down on television as disposable slop for nigger cattle, which a lot of it is. That said, I do enjoy seeing a story being told over a series of interconnected episodes as opposed to a single standalone feature. It allows a lot more time for the characters and plotline to develop, and makes a great vehicle for sci-fi/fantasy worldbuilding. 

The last show I saw was the Prisoner from 1968. It's about a retired glowie who gets kidnapped by a shadowy organization and made to live in a bizarre little town that runs on its own set of rules while they interrogate him about his past and play psychological tricks on him to get him to give away the information they want.

What are some other TV shows worth watching that make the most of what the medium has to offer?

I am fucking slow, was gonna make this thread 2 years ago

>The Prisoner
Vast majority of the hype back in the day and references are from the famous series Secret Agent Man, aka Danger Man, which starred the same protag doing what the title would suggest, despite using a lot of James Bond material as a reference the irony is that the 007 film series ripped tons of ideas from SAM.

Now, as far as i remember the trivia story is one day the actor didn't want to renew because his demands were not met and was seemingly unceremoniously laid off/forced to resign, so later some previous writers and he did a seemingly unrelated series called The Prisoner based on previous ideas and which ended up starring the man as a former secret agent, having the same code number which replaced his name, reflecting about the very similar experiences and being played around by the organization either previous employer or the enemy's, or were they the same? in a Fantasy Island setting turned crazy which interestingly enough is supposedly very similar to a place he raided in the series

As you might expect this was a fucking phenomenon and a quite explicit showdown against his former character/series, doesn't help it was released at the h

>Most TV was completely disposable until recently
>Unbearable.
Completely disagree but it is true that back in the day series were chuck filled with filler, which breaks a lot of narrative continuity. Although we can argue that's the entire reason for TV shows.
But like anon said we got the original Twilight Zone which is mostly very good.

One idea i had was separating the main plot from the filler in some series, The X-Files is famous for the fanbase doing that, with the so-called Mythology being 62 episodes compared to the 200 something the entire thing has.
For example The Fugitive is usually spouted as one of the most memorable series from back in the day but it's 120 episodes and all of them i saw on syndicated TV were filler, so that doesn't spell good news. 

My plan was to separate the main arc episodes from the "side quests" in series i was planning to see but ended up just watching other stuff not quite related to normal TV anime so i didn't do it, just watched a season of Renegade which was nostalgic as hell but certainly not very good and didn't really advance the plot from the pilot; a very decent time capsule of the 90's i admit, that's the only honor i would give it.

Twin Peaks is one of my favorite shows. The Prisoner is good too. I like The Twilight Zone but feel like there are certain plotlines that it overused from what I remember seeing. I have never seen the entire run.

>try watching a random episode of something produced in the sixties. Unbearable.
Someone has some shit taste. As my family have been doing exactly that from the past few years and having an absolute blasts. In fact, I'm actually surprised just how progressive and serious shows like Bonanza and The Rifleman actually were considering how modern culture tends to treat those shows as light-hearted romanticized affairs. If anything, what's killed television is how series have almost entirely removed themselves from being episodic stories and become 6-13 hour films just released sliced up into (half) hour segments.

'60s TV was charming. Even the lighthearted shows could be fun, laugh tracks aside. I'd honestly rather just watch reruns of Green Acres than give a lot of the more respected TV shows out there a shot.

Figured it would be good for others, I've been scratching my brain for hours (unhealthy?) trying to remember where the he'll I saw this scene: A man wearing a hat steps outside to smoke a cigarette, when a phantasmagorical hand appears from thin air and seems to bother his psyche...
The weirdest thing about this is that it felt like a silent film, but the elements like the man and his hat felt very noir-ish... And this might be the years of substance abuse catching up to me but I even remember the scene being purple tinted and the floating hand yellow tinted... Or was it the other way round! Am I losing it!

After rewatching both Carries I have to admit I'm biased towards girls like that (I even may be biased in this revision) and I'm unbothered by tack so maybe you will think of this movie as poorly as everyone else did, in which the one thing that was praised was the portrayal of her.

In 2 hours a lot doesn't happen, scenes are clunkily adhered together by showcasing visual information about the plot rather than a continuous narrative that builds weight with each scene until the climax; each scene a platter to portray the idea of who Carrie is rather than everything substantially implied and shown within 90-120 minutes.  As this was meant to be a pilot we likely would have gotten flashbacks and implications about her life before the movie starts, and for being a TV movie supposed to turn into a TV show it makes sense as that style of pacing is meant for multiple (half-)hour-length narratives but as it stands she's a caricature compared to the original by the emotion Spacek had put in.

Also the prom scene in the original is quite decent and my disappointment with it was the lack of gore which knowing would've been too far for the 70s still was taken into consideration anyway, 2002's is a drawn-out somewhat goofy spectacle with awkward acting to account for the CGI.

WTF did I just watch? A wizard who created building out-of-time? A jewish bird? Baby-soul eating pelicans? A kingdom of giant, man-eating parakeets? Meeting ones' loli mother? A stone with a will? Characters getting shat on by birds?
I strongly feel this film had a central theme, metaphor, and/or allegory that I only maybe picked up on.
Miyazaki's son rejecting becoming his successor, and Miyazaki feeling that death will take him soon?
I don't know. A surprisingly surreal film from Miyazaki.
It reminded me of the wizard rejecting his magic at the end of Shakespeare's Tempest, and Tarkovsky's Mirror when its plot was at its loosest. Maybe I should read the book it was based on?

Saw this Egyptian movie Ahl al-Kahf/ People of the Cave based on the story of the seven sleepers. I thought it was entertaining enough though fairly low budget, they certainly took liberties with history and not all the costumes looked perfectly convincing. Some of the gear on the germanic soldiers and arena fighters looked almost more post-apocalyptic than ancient, like something you'd see in mad max. The whole thing reminded me a little of Maradonia and the Shadow empire, except based on Arabic history instead of fan fiction.

>Jennifer's Body (2009)
After some indie band botches a demonic sacrifice in a desperate bid to become popular, the titular Jennifer come's back as a demon and starts murdering the boys around town to fill her hunger. Yes, I watched the film partial because of Megan Fox, but this is also one of those films that I remember seeing the previews for back when it came out and it sort of intrigued me since. However what I did not expect was that the film was basically the writer's surrogacy for being a lesbian. The film is essentially a love triangle between Jennifer wanting to have hot lesbian sex with her childhood friend Needy, but Needy isn't a carpet muncher and loves her boyfriend. You pretty much figure out a third of the way into the film the Jen is a lesbian when she kills the emo kid that Needy sort-of likes just because Needy says that he's an "okay guy". Could this have been a better film? I don't know. Possibly if it actually went with the premise shown in the trailers that Jennifer was an unapologetic demon instead of your typical yandere dyke, but that's really it. It left me unsatisifed with this bizzare film where it paradoxically feels like it's both too short and like much of the film is filler.
