Von Trier to start eh, just need the next two entries now to be Woody Allen and Roman Polanski and this thread will descend into all-out carnage before we’ve even hit number 70

Dogville is decent, as is Melancholia. Bloke’s an absolute cock though.

Thought the first half of Melnacholia was utterly unbearable and thought the second half was transcendent. Film really is a game of two halves!

Had a similar experience with The House That Jack Built, except that rather than the entire second half is was only the final 10 minutes that were anything other than awful…

@AQOS are you planning on naming and shaming who voted for whom?

Antichrist is the best film I never want to see ever again.

I remember lots of walk outs in the cinema, which I get. Although did a hard LOL when this happened out of nowhere.

Remember seeing the trailer and that bit and thinking ‘this is going to be the best film ever’

How wrong I was.

Dogville is probably his best. Really interesting production idea and well executed I thought.

Although he is, as others have said, an utter bell.

The hype on release was massive and reviewed well critically I seem to recall. Would be interesting to hear a retrospective by anyone who’s willing to watch it again

Would have voted for ‘The Five Obstructions’ but what can you do.

Thanks again for doing this @AQOS

seeing antichrist at the cinema is one of my favourite cinema experiences for a variety of reasons, but that fox was probably no.1 among them. Not sure the experience could really be replicated though

I’ll level with you my friend, I like to post that picture in response to any list of names, I’m not big on cinema so I’ve not heard of any of them, and I just came in here to make a little mischief.
