About Raging Bull, I remember recently reading somewhere a tweet/ IG caption from him of the quote "So give me a stage, where this bull here can rage"

Edit: I found it

Honestly, a similar thought passed through my mind once or twice, when seeing (cool as f*** nonetheless) posts like yours with pics from movie scenes, side by side by Abel's re-creation, like "damn, another movie reference, Abel? really? 🙄"

It's a good idea per se, but being that it was repeated so many times, I don't see what's there to gain. His videos to me are at the limits of almost above average, and his dedication, no matter how much he tries, is anaemic, and can't seem to take the leap at achieving "great videos" or "so artistic and well made it wows photography/filmography students, aficionados, or even directors"

Alright, he likes movies, has the money, and is like a kid with "two thousand ones" in his pocket, in a chocolate store.

But I would much more prefer him to leave video-making to the experts, and him to show the same dedication, passion for studying music, songwriting, what the greatest singer/songwriters did before him, and elevate the bar of his music, the bar he stopped pushing December 21, 2011.

He wants his fans and the public to perceive him as a cinephile and potentially a future filmmaker (which is ironic considering he's only directed two of his videos and they were absolute s***)

I can understand being inspired or heavily influenced but this ain't it right now. The fact i can so easily reference every film proves my point. Also he seems too fixated on the horror genre which is frustrating. At least explore another avenue of the art-form, perhaps Sci-Fi? oh wait he did that with his spotify personalized listening experience "Alone With Me" where he blatantly ripped off that s*** JD flick "Transcendence (2014)". I'm telling you... the manlet is shameless lol

My mind is at odds with how often you post in this section and how often you bash on Abel I mean it's just comedy at this point. I honestly can't tell if you're a fan of him or not

How come I didn't notice this before? lol

The Prestige (2006)

You seem like a big cinephile, I've been checking out some of the films you've been posting, I just saw "The Skin I live In" yesterday, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Do you have a list of your most recommended thriller/horror movies you could post? I'd really appreciate it.

Really hope Abel manages to link back up with Claire Denis for the After Hours short film that was mentioned at the beginning of the pandemic; highsnobiety.com/p/the-weeknd-robert-pattinson-claire-denis-movies

Old references, but was rewatching Stalker &
Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence recently when suddenly it dawned on me that both flicks had nod's in The Knowing video;
