like something made after 1990. your taste is pretentious

The movies I listed were made in 1928, 1932, 1964, 1972, and 2001. That's pretty spread out. Films made before the 90s are not less worthy of being enjoyed as you seem to be implying. Insisting on writing off the tastes of people who enjoy the movies I listed as pretentious only serves to comment on the type of person you are, not the people you are judging. You just seem closed minded and unable to accept that others like things you don't.

How is The Passion of Joan of Arc pretentious?

Its an emotional gutpunch. If it was made today itvwould be oscarbait comparable to Driving Miss Daisy but with better cinematography.

Nobody commented on the amount of movies they've seen. Not only do you not seem to understand what the word "pretentious" means, but you also seem to lack basic comprehension skills.

Oddly enough, the only one who hasn't posted a list of movies in this exchange is you. Insecure much?

This argument is dumb and needlessly hostile. Personally I think film in a lot of ways is reaching new heights with every passing year, but I wouldn't call loving old films pretentious and there's also styles of films that were made in the past that wouldn't get made today that I have a lot of time for.

I wouldn't call loving the occasional film past Spielberg pretentious, but making the majority of your films foreign and before 1960...pretty pretentious

1. Aliens -- Sci Fi horror perfected, with the most memorable cast of characters in sci-fi film history. Would be panned as racist these days for casting a white woman to play a Latina in brown face.

2. Jurassic Park -- The groundbreaking dinosaur CGI still holds up well, and the Williams score is 50% of why the movie is so great. Too bad the franchise went downhill from there, ending (hopefully) with the god-awful Jurassic World reboot.

3. Terminator 2 -- The same basic plot as Terminator 1, but executed far better.

4. Interstellar -- by far the best sci-fi film of the 2000s, with a deep and emotional time travel plot, excellent depiction of alien planets (especially the frozen cloud planet), and Zimmer's best film score to date.

5. Gattaca -- You don't get better drama sci-fi than this.

My top 5 films that I love but everyone hates.

1. Skyline -- Hands down the fearsome aliens to ever appear in an Alien Invasion movie. The way they harvested human brains to power their exosuits was disturbing. That is until the awful sequel reduced them to mere Power Rangers foes getting their asses kicked by Indonesian Ninjas! WTF happened there?

2. Cutthroat Island -- This was such a fun adventure movie! Only gets better with repeated viewings!

3. The Ring Two -- I must be the only one on Earth who thought this was better than the first one.

4. The Skeleton Key -- This is the movie where Jordan Peele ripped off his "Get Out" script from. It's so fucking underrated it should be criminal.

5. Jason X -- I once marathoned the whole franchise for Halloween with some friends, and this was the only one that stood out as a good movie. What the hell do people see in the first one? It's so boring!

thanks.

I actually saw both movies at random.

I bought a copy of Zatoichi starring Beat Takeshi some years back, and it came with a copy of Sonatine. and I wanted to see El Topo after hearing that No More Heroes was inspired by it, and I could only find a Jodorowski collection, so I ended up buying it
