➤Simple Guidelines

➧1. Include the original film name, director and year of release for your cinema favourite frame

Always include the original film name, director and year of release. If you do not know some of the required information, state that in either the title or top-level comment e.g. [Roma, Federico Fellini, Unknown Year]. The reason we ask for this information is that you can only search on the content of post titles, not comments.

➧2. Add review? I'ts your choice! In the 'body' of the post you can add your review, a comment or anything else you think about the film. You're free to do that, let's keep the discussion open about the film you just posted. Or just don't write anything and share your favourite frame, is up to you.

➧3. No low-effort/low-quality posts.

Posts made to r/filmsframes are expected to be of high quality and have serious effort put behind them. The frame should be clean, not have any urls/website watermarks in them.

➧4. Be Original

Don’t publish stills/frames of a famous film like everyone else, we want to see your own view of a film, your favourite shot, try to publish your favourite still/frame.

➧5. Be respectful.

Harassment, abuse, name calling, and/or threats of any kind is not tolerated here. Any content, whether an image or a comment, that includes any kind of bigoted language or hate speech will be met with a permanent ban.

➧6. No off-topic Content

Never post anything that is off-topic (i.e. not film stills/frames) or that contains gory material.

➧7. No spam or reposts.

Do not submit more than one of the same post/comment on this community or across multiple communities. In addition, please wait at least 3 months before reposting an image that has already been posted to r/filmsframes, and do not repost from the top of all time.

➧8. No advertisement or self-promotion.

Do not use this subreddit to advertise or self-promote. This includes (but is not limited to) websites, articles, blog posts, and brands.

➧9. No memes images or GIFS Please keep the 'frames' and 'stills' in mind.

➧10. Tag NSFW Posts

· Nudity: Obvious, implied or strategically covered · Content that is “sexually explicit” · Gore, both human and non-human.

➧11. Look around you... Please watch what is posted already, maybe shots/frames/stills from ‘Marvel’ or other “blockbuster” films or others alike, aren’t the most suitable for this community. Yet, this is relative, if you find your "view/still/frame is artistic enough to post, don’t be shy to post it.

➠ Report if you if like... Feel free to report any content that does not respect these rules.

I did a cut of this movie with only the "Asteroid City" movie and none of the actors, writers, directors, backstories, production cards, or narration. It came out to an exact 80 minutes of a tight (if not sorta bland) movie.

[–] lookluc@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For me, the film is very bland itself. Aside from the nice backgrounds and aesthetics, the story is very poor. It didn't keep me engaged. I think its a problem with Mr. Anderson itself, his style got the main character of his films, the story is secondary. I noticed it in his last films, especially in 'The French Dispatch'. For me, he created the recipe and the recipe became the problem: the films become bland, the style is there but is almost tiring to watch a film from him, seeing the same techniques and formulas over and over again.

I read one reviewer's take AC was an internal critique of his style and sort of a deconstruction of his authorship. It seems many directors today are looking inwards.

Posting Wes Anderson is kinda cheating.

[–] lookluc@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why do you say that? ahaha

[–] freamon@endlesstalk.org 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oops. I didn't realise it was you. Well, it's not for me to say what belongs in your Community, but I prefer it when people go through a film to find the rare shot that's so well composed it could stand on its own as a painting, but for Wes Anderson films, it's all so artfully composed in the first place, it feels like he's done half the work for you.

[–] lookluc@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Hello :) I understand your point and completely agree with it! Thats the point of the community and that's what I tried to make here. I agree is artfully composed, and I tried to take one frame different from the other ones in the film, I think this is it. It would be obvious if I posted a frame with the orange rocks, wich dominates the film, so I thought this was the best one :)
