@@palmaceiamovie It's only, "Separate art from artist" when it's like Quentin Tarantino defending Roman Polanski. God Forbid they do the same for Spike Lee who's simply reflecting his own rage in his filmmaking.
@@truthteller2033 But he just doesnt though? He dislikes injustice and guess who caused injustice against his people? Asians? Nah I think they were white. It ain't racism, hes just using satire to accentuate the fact, stop being so pseudo offended
Keep up the educational content. Spike Lee is very knowledgeable about the history of cinema, so it was wonderful to see his career respected with this content.
I barely noticed the aspect ratio changes and I'm impressed. Matching the color grading across the different cameras and lenses is quite a feat because it was done seemless and for some reason it felt big budget despite the isolated jungle locations. Yes, other directors use aspect ratio changes all the time but sometimes I find it jarring and slightly annoying especially when it skips back and forth relentlessly (Transformers: Last Knight, and M:I Fallout being the biggest offenders).
I was so happy when I saw the notification for a new episode! I don't usually do the Patreon thing, but I'll make an exception this time! Keep up the great work!
I love your film breakdowns. Are you going to do film breakdowns of the following filmmakers: Ann Hui, John Singleton, Jackie Chan, Beat Takeshi, Sammo Hung, Akira Kurosawa, John Woo and Tsui Hark.
Despite all the efford, DA 5 BLOODS received only one nomination at the Oscars Not even Delroy Lindo and Newton Thomas Sigel got nominated, which is baffling
Even though his version of OLDBOY wasn't worthy, I still found Lee's approach decent And there's also a version that was supposed to be 40 minutes longer I wonder what it could've been
who cares? We all know Spike Lee is a great film director... but how about some info when Spike Lee was shooting when he had no budget? I am trying to debut with my short musical and can’t get £30000 for it.. and Spike Lee shoot for $175000.... seriously?
Honestly I have never watched any of his movies but just seeing what he could accomplish in those early films and how visually stunning they are, and how he went about doing them, it's pretty impressive. Maybe he should just stay away from genre schlock
Love the "3 budget levels" essays, more please.
Never thought about placing a lighter under the lens trick. Gonna try that one.
Great practical effect. It first came to my attention when Scorsese used it for the first person shots in raging bull to show fatigue.
@@alexandermusca4487 Going to check that out now!
i’ve been down lately; i have tons of shit to edit, but watching these videos re inspire me again to work
Spike Lee’s long time production designer Wynn Thomas just gave a talk at my school a few weeks ago, such an interesting story of how he met Spike Lee
How?
How?
How?
How?
I think Ryan Coogler would be a great candidate for this series! Fruitvale Station
Yes!!!
Facts.
The fact his most expensive movie is his worst one yet is hilarious to me
@@muchtartidakbahagia It was the first superhero film to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscar's. It's a huge milestone.
Hey I think he took note of this
It's really unique how some movies have so much thought behind them.
@@truthteller2033 You can like the film someone made without actually liking the person behind it.

I got to see a bunch of his personal posters and props he donated to the Academy Museum
Productive as always 👍👍👍 maybe a Jim Jarmusch serie...

Good series man!

She’s Gotta have it inspired me to buy my first super8 Camera in 1986….
Dope vid....
I still need to see Da 5 bloods.
Very nice
Morehouse Man Spike Lee
North Philly peace Park love
Let’s go!!

Pta? Fincher? Lynch? Villeneuve?
Yess!!! Finally!
Excelent

And there's also a version that was supposed to be 40 minutes longer
I wonder what it could've been
I see you absolutely everywhere.
@@visualsforyou7120 thank you

Hell they should show Malcolm X in schools. Was barely taught about the man.
Men do video about Janusz Kaminski.
WE NEED ONE FOR ROBERT RODRIGUEZ
A Spike Lee joint!
8.5m...? damn
wow, da 5 bloods cost 40m? it looked like way less
Pleaase do Francis Ford Copola NEXT.
ME: FRANCIS
Funny how the most expensive film in this video is also the worst one.
Da 5 Bloods is a better film than She's Gotta Have it. His remake of She's Gotta Have it is pretty amazing tho.
who cares? We all know Spike Lee is a great film director... but how about some info when Spike Lee was shooting when he had no budget?
I am trying to debut with my short musical and can’t get £30000 for it.. and Spike Lee shoot for $175000.... seriously?
Malcolm X
First

Sixth
Not an huge fan of spike Lee early work.
Answer: terribly. Particularly his latest film which I guess people were too afraid to criticize.
Honestly I have never watched any of his movies but just seeing what he could accomplish in those early films and how visually stunning they are, and how he went about doing them, it's pretty impressive. Maybe he should just stay away from genre schlock
40 million dollars to make an absolute garbage of a film.
Everyone's a critic
