You Ever Think About How Violent American Cinema Is? That shyt Is Not Normal

[ThaRealness]

I used to take that shyt 100% for granted... its not just the blockbusters, but the most well regarded films in American history.... Godfather, Pulp Fiction Goodfellas, Apocalypse Now, etc.

Last night I got high, and watched some clips of the illest foreign directors, just to peep game... Then I got Goodfellas in the mix, and that shyt killed my high

Like we really take this shyt for granted... Try showing Goodfellas to someone who's never seen an American film before, and tell them "Yeah, this is an example of cinema in its highest form. Bodies, on bodies on bodies... This dude over here is a sociopath who guns down busboys... On the left we got a man with borderline personality disorder "

Don't get me wrong, I consider Coppola, Scorcese, Tarantino and Kubrick some of the greatest directors ever.. But they have an insane, capitalistic approach to film

You watch their work and you say "Yeah, this is a product of our culture"

Oh, and on another note... Paul was up in Henry's girl the whole film (1:40)

Well the country was founded and settled by psychopaths and criminals.

What should the cinema be like?

American cinema represents the legacy of the grind and everything that comes along with that in every area of activity by extension

No, i dont think about it....because im an American....and i luhs my violence...but foreign films just as Violent

 

[Bruce LeRoy]

I don't think American movies are more violent - US flicks usually tend to have alot of implied violence. Many European and Asian movies do NOT shy away from graphic violence and they shove that shyt in your face. For example... when someone in an American movie gets shot in the head most of the time you just see a small hole with blood leaking out, in Foreign movies someone gets shot in the head and half their head gets blown off.

 

[DaRealness]

Non American movies are way more violent though.

 

[BlackAchilles]

Have you ever read classic literature? That shyt's mad violent, really this is nothing new.

Non American movies are way more violent though.

What films do you have in mind?

 

[King Ka$h]

What films do you have in mind?

Martyrs-France
Ichi the Killer-Japan
Cannibal Holocaust-Italy
A lot of Japanese horror films are straight up gorecore man,Tokyo Gore Police in particular.That movie inside from France where that crazy bytch cuts a baby out of a pregnant woman
A Serbian Film was just fukked up,as was High Tension,Nekromantik 1&2,and The Burning Moon.

But the WOAT when in comes to -inducing violence is the Japanese Guinea Pig series,shyt has people still thinking it was a real snuff series and I can see why.

I can agree with that

 

[BXKingPin82]

I can agree with that

This is a sick country man
Point blank period
I can watch some shyt like Machine Girl and laugh at how ridiculous it is

I cant do the same with 12 Years a Slave

 

[David_TheMan]

Japanese cinema far more violent.
Korean far more violent and darker as well.

Stop trying to lie about other country cinema and call it art while trying to claim the same shyt when done in the US isn't art.

 

[Wild self]

When people get their limbs chopped off and get beheaded on some horrorcore shyt, then you have a valid point.

 

[Emoryal]

Non American movies are way more violent though.

Right, what was that foreign film with the dudes making baby porn? Dudes are always lying to try and make a fake point in threads. Brehs never seen a martial arts film all time list? shyts neg worthy tbh.
