On the drive home Jason turns on the radio, it is a commercial for cum flavored soda called Jizzlers Best

neutral · AI labelView post →2008 SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK (Kaufman) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐⭐ A movie about life—and also death, and also art, and also sadness, and loneliness, and regret, and absurdity, and love and loss, and reality and time, and lies we tell to forget the truth we all know. Nothing else quite like it, nor does there need to be.
positive · AI labelView post →Well, the scariest movie I’ve ever seen is SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK, so that gets my vote

neutral · AI labelView post →The girl's recent movie-watching has been TWELVE ANGRY MEN (which she thinks very highly of) and SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK, which she was profoundly affected by. (She's going to watch BATTLE ROYALE today, so there may be some grinding of gears for her).

positive · AI labelView post →It was strangely enjoyable talking with @johnmoe.bsky.social about the purpose and, in the right time and place, the pleasure of an extremely sad movie. Some of the titles that came up in our conversation: Cries and Whispers; Grave of the Fireflies; Synecdoche, New York; and Dancer in the Dark.

neutral · AI labelView post →All filmmakers love and envy that set. The eternally unfinished house set in Synecdoche, New York is a tribute to it.
neutral · AI labelView post →Synecdoche, New York (2008) i can already tell from the synopsis this film is going to be a Baudrillard experience
neutral · AI labelView post →What a shithouse of a week. RIP the great Tom Noonan. That presence, that voice. His work with Mann will rightly be celebrated but check out Synecdoche, New York if you can. A great performance in a thorny film.
positive · AI labelView post →Just watched A Different Man and I can’t believe more people aren’t talking about this movie. It’s basically if Synecdoche, New York was also a reverse body horror film. exactly my shit
positive · AI labelView post →Requiem for a Dream (2000), although the ending doesn't exactly come as a surprise. Grave of the Fireflies (1988), an anime by Studio Ghibli. It begins with the end and since I had kids I cannot watch it anymore. The Road (2009). I've only read the book and cannot bring myself to watch a movie based on that. Hamlet (1996) and Titus (1999), both based on plays by Shakespeare, don't end well for anyone. Nightcrawler (2014) was surprisingly good and Jake Gyllenhaal is very good at being…
neutral · AI labelView post →Nfn, I also think the @letterboxd.social #TopFour is about 20% less cool after discovering that @reelrank.net exhibits your #Top5Films, in my case: American Psycho The Muppet Movie Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead Synecdoche, New York Tommy Boy Is ReelRank better than #letterboxd? 🤔 #FilmSky 🎥
neutral · AI labelView post →someone should pay @helltran.bsky.social to write an analysis of Synecdoche, New York as a movie about an aging trans woman's life and transition because we watched it with that in mind last night and, wow already a great film without that reading a significantly richer one with it
positive · AI labelView post →District Nine (though in terms of worst movie for a first date, Synecdoche, New York takes the prize)
neutral · AI labelView post →Right now my favorite movie is Synecdoche, New York. I don't think I ever felt so deeply connected to a piece of art before. It's morbid yet oddly comforting, and my brain chemistry has been permanently altered after seeing it. I'm in my Kaufman era which began with me and my wife watching Being John Malkovich (which is also pretty damn good imo). And I'm obsessed. He's reinvigorated my love of cinema in a big way! I feel embarrassed it took me so long to watch his stuff but I think it came…
positive · AI labelView post →I think this film, Synecdoche New York, select David Lynch works, if you can find someone you really like who really likes those pieces, yes, you should absolutely use this as potential marriage criteria.
positive · AI labelView post →i got to see a screening of Synecdoche New York and a talk with Kaufman after the film. super insightful and he was so nice! here’s some drawings i did during his talk
neutral · AI labelView post →Learnt how you’re meant to pronounce ‘synecdoche’ and realised simultaneously that the 2008 film ‘Synecdoche, New York’ is a play on the similar-sounding NY state city of Schenectady. I’ve never seen ‘Synecdoche, New York ‘ (2008)

neutral · AI labelView post →if you hated BIRDMAN you’ll hate this movie but if you fucked with it & also appreciate DR STRANGELOVE & SYNECDOCHE NEW YORK you’ll have fun
positive · AI labelView post →I withstood Synecdoche, New York but the tension of a Groverhaus movie would break me.
neutral · AI labelView post →still thinking about Synecdoche, New York rewatch the "everyone is tattooed" joke where Michelle Williams reveals a giant back tattoo (PSH's response "well i've never seen that before") is such a funny gag the movie is so devastating but every tragedy is also a pretty good joke 😊
positive · AI labelView post →Just watched Synecdoche, New York. I feel like this would’ve rocked my world if I watched it in 2008. Good movie!
positive · AI labelView post →Without needing to get into the virtues of Cloverfield (it’s excellent) or whether Synecdoche New York counts as a 9/11 movie (it does) you have to remember that a bunch of our best art responding to 9/11 was in TV and/or comedy. Because 9/11 was a serial event and it also very quickly became funny
neutral · AI labelView post →this is re: Synecdoche, New York is that a good movie? am *I* the simpleton?? I've seen it twice and my primary emotion after both viewings was "bewildered"
neutral · AI labelView post →I’m mostly a bit iffy about Charlie Kaufman films, but holy shit Synecdoche New York is easily the best thing he’s done. A truly exquisite film.
positive · AI labelView post →just finished todays second movie: Synecdoche, New York. I'm going the fuck to bed
neutral · AI labelView post →Synecdoche, New York is the most honest film ever made about middleaged regret Not nostalgia for youth, but the belief that life can be rehearsed until it’s finally safe to live It can’t Meaning only arrives at the moment of commitment And by the time you understand that, it’s usually too late
positive · AI labelView post →18) To remember the king: Philip Seymour Hoffman who is wonderful in everything but fuck it, I'll single out Synecdoche New York for being such a wonderful weird-ass movie and giving PSH such a broad cavas to shine.
neutral · AI labelView post →“Beau is Afraid”: Kafkaesque comedy (not really horror) with Phoenix as an anxious man in a nightmare world. Like Synecdoche New York, can’t believe producers funded this epic depressing art film: but “Beau” is (darkly) funnier. Drags in spots. Probably worth watching twice once you know the ending.
neutral · AI labelView post →I like to point these people towards “Synecdoche, New York” which, aside from being a beautiful movie, will let them enjoy the very straightforward story of a man who is obsessed with understanding everything.

positive · AI labelView post →Today's film was Synecdoche, New York, but I only made it through 45 minutes before FF-ing ahead to see if this mope Caden ever livened up. No, apparently. Birdman tackled a similar subject much better IMO. #MovieSky #FilmSky
negative · AI labelView post →My ten favorite movies of the 21st century? Uh... Mulholland Drive Adaptation City of God Millennium Actress The Descent Synecdoche, New York Mad Max: Fury Road The Other Side of the Wind Shoplifters The Cat Returns Yeah, I could put a different Ghibli movie there but no, it's THE CAT RETURNS.
positive · AI labelView post →ok im officially obsessed with the idea of "Synecdoche, New York 2". cant think of a film that calls for a sequel less, but in that way it makes perfect sense. the only limit to a world of infinite simulacrum is death... unless of course you write a sequel. i think i could sell kaufman on the idea.
neutral · AI labelView post →14. SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK (Charlie Kaufman, 2008) Kaufman’s attempt to make a film about everything he was most afraid of yielded one of the most unsettling existential horror films of all time. Proceed with caution.
neutral · AI labelView post →I watched Synecdoche, New York last night and have been reading a bunch of reviews and I just gotta say that the folks who said this movie didn't make them feel anything... that they didn't like it specifically because they couldn't relate to it in anyway... honestly im terrified of u, wtf
positive · AI labelView post →This was my Letterboxd review and I think it warrants a repost here: “ I didn’t think there’d ever be a movie that’d make me say “Dang, I wish I was watching Synecdoche, New York right now” “
positive · AI labelView post →i recall the skepticism around them being largely considered justified by their dismissal of Synecdoche New York, which was a whole pre-twitter film culture discourse
neutral · AI labelView post →I respect the hell out of the choice to have your comfort movie be 1. so incredibly complex and difficult and 2. emotionally devastating. I don't have the same relationship with Synecdoche New York, but many of my favorite movies have me weeping through much of the runtime.

neutral · AI labelView post →Synecdoche, New York. I love Charlie Kaufman, and Philip Seymour Hoffman is amazing but that movie is Too Much in a wonderful way. I'll be ready to watch it again in ten years. It's been ten years since I watched it.
positive · AI labelView post →As a send-off to 2025, I'll be posting 25 movies and shows that I watched for the first time last year. Day 25 - Synecdoche, New York a Charlie Kaufman movie starring Phillip Seymore Hoffman that tells a bleak, surreal story of what happens when you spend your life chasing perfection
neutral · AI labelView post →also if anyone wants more umineko-ian media basically any movie by Charlie Kaufman fits the bill but more specifically Synecdoche, New York is a POWERFULLL movie that i watched once as a teen and another time as an adult and i came away both times with something profound
positive · AI labelView post →There's a film "Synecdoche New York" which is a play on Schenectady, which sounds similar.
