I'M REQUESTING Best pulp-inspired movies (Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Sin City, The Maltese Falcon, Quigley Down Under)

13 Upvotes

Pulp fiction has inspired filmmaking to this day. From swashbuckling capers like Zorro, to the gritty crime drama of L.A. Confidential.

The pulp magazines, radio serials, and B-pictures of the 1930s and 1940s left us all with a rich legacy of imaginative entertainment, and I'd appreciate your suggestions for your favorites. Any era is absolutely welcome!

Thanks a lot, I appreciate it.

I'M REQUESTING Films with extremely over saturated color grading

8 Upvotes

I'm NOT looking for movies that merely use a lot of bright colors like Speed Racer or Cat in the Hat. I'm looking for color grading so saturated, it would be off putting to most people. Mystic Shrine Maiden is the only example that comes to mind.

Unintentionally watched 3 movies like this recently (Magnolia, Crash :(, & Nashville) and I found myself really drawn to the concept of a bunch of moving characters and pieces.

Would love to get recommendations if there any big ones. Getting ready to watch Short Cuts as I type this.

I'M REQUESTING Recommendations For Low Stimulation, Feel Good Movies? 25 y/o M & F

25 Upvotes

Hello, Everyone! ☺️ My boyfriend and I love to unwind after work (lawyer / finance) by watching low stimulation / feel good movies. We have a concrete routine: make Rooibos tea, eat a chunk of dark chocolate, and light some calming incense. Home really feels like our sanctuary.

We have been at our routine for almost a year now, and are starting to run out of our own movie ideas. So, here I am! We love children’s animated classics (Curious George, Cars, Up, Fantasia, etc.); Disney live-actions (Princess Protection Program, Luck of the Irish; Lizzie McGuire); Studio Ghibli; and alternative low-stimulation (Wes Anderson, Fried Green Tomatoes, The Odd Life of Timothy Greene).

Please, please, please, give me your coziest, low-stimulation recommendations!!!

I'M REQUESTING Looking for some dark/bleak/depressing dramas. Along the lines of Oslo August 31st

15 Upvotes

Going thru a hard time and watching movies where I can relate to the main character helps me a lot. Oslo August 31st has been the best one I’ve found so far.

Leaving Las Vegas is also really good.

So yeah just a drama that’s very dark/bleak and especially depressing. A very real look at mental illness/depression. Thank you

I'M SUGGESTING Stalker 1979

42 Upvotes

One of the greatest philosophical films I've ever seen. The film takes you on a journey through the lives of three different people: a writer, a scientist, and a believer. Each speaks about life from their own perspective and whether a person truly knows themselves. Imagine entering a room that will grant you not just what you say you want, but what you truly desire at the deepest level of your consciousness, even if you don't acknowledge it to yourself i recommend it for anyone feels lonely and try to understand himself

I'M REQUESTING What are some movies (or any media really) where BOTH sides are truly morally grey? (Please read body)

6 Upvotes

And I don’t mean something like Fallout New Vegas, where one side wants you to pay taxes and the other will enslave you, I’m talking truly there’s no real “good side,” like Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty.

I'M SUGGESTING "HOKUM" on Hulu is a good horror!!

98 Upvotes

Watched it last night with my BF....was better than expected!! Kind of a good vs evil storyline.

The protagonist is really unlikeable at first....until his deep childhood trauma comes back to haunt him.

Good story in general. If you are looking for a good spooky movie for this tine o year this is a good one.

I'M REQUESTING Looking for the best period piece horror & thriller films

4 Upvotes

Recently have really loved horror/thriller films that are also period pieces that take place before let’s say 1940, films like The Beguiled, The Awakening, All of Robert Eggers films, Picnic at Hanging Rock, The Others, Stonehurst Asylum, Interview with a Vampire. Bonus points for films with dark academia vibe set in England.

I'M REQUESTING Indie Stuff

8 Upvotes

Suggest me some criminally underrated indie films that can improve my screenwriting.

I'm looking for independent films with exceptional writing, compelling characters, unconventional storytelling, or brilliant use of limited budgets.

Any genre is welcome 🤗

I'm especially interested in films that prove you don't need a huge budget to tell an incredible story.

Obscure gems and international indie films are highly appreciated. They don't necessarily have to be critically acclaimed or popular.

I want films that teach me something about storytelling, not just films that are entertaining to watch.

Drop your hidden gems!

Note : please mention the released year for clarification

Thank you

I'M REQUESTING Contemporary heist films

9 Upvotes

Excited for How to Rob a Bank (though I think the robberies will come second to the social commentary).

Looking for movies set in modern day, heist movies. Guns, bank jobs, etc. Think of The Town, Triple 9, Den of Thieves (first one). Even team movies where they have to get a crew together (Triple Frontier) to pull off a job.
I’ve seen a lot of the classics but with the exception of Heat and Dog Day Afternoon, they all come across as dated and difficult to get into. Admittedly I saw these when I was young so that may skew my memory of them.
Any mid-big budget heist / crew movies in the past twenty years I am missing?

I have seen Task which is exactly the type of Cops and Robbers I am looking for.

Looking forward to suggestions

I'M REQUESTING Movies where the food is a star

What are some movies where the plot is partially an excuse to see some amazing food? I'm picturing maybe a cooking/baking competition movie but with spectacular food and petty rivalry. Like The Devil Wears Prada but with food instead of fashion?

I'M REQUESTING Horror films where the horror comes from shame, rejection or irreversible loss

Can be monster/zombie movies, gory, slashers, more psychological or supernatural, just interested in these particular kinds of moods or feelings around the horror and don't know how to search for this specifically rather than genre or other things, so I'm asking here. Thanks for any suggestions!

Qual è il film più scioccante che abbiate mai visto?

Mi piacciono molto i film psicologici, quelli che ti lasciano incollato allo schermo, quelli dove accadono cose scioccanti come hereditary, va e vedi etc...

Quale mi consigliate di vedere?
