Why does this board hate Gotard so much?

I don't like the guy myself beside some brief strokes of interesting formal and stylistic choices, but I'm interested in your opinion because I don't feel like I'm able to put it into words.

His movies strike as more interesting to explain than to watch and are all more commentaries on film (hypocritical, dishonest and short handed at that) than actual film. There is 0 beside some formal choices (at best) or some gimmicks (at worst). Also the guy was a fucking cunt eveyone hated him.

Yet while I understand why he was loved and so trendy in the 60-70 (now he's just irrelevant altrough I much prefer late video Gotard than early)I don't understand why he's still loved now.

If someone made a case for him, I would be open-minded. I stopped watching his stuff because it didn't excite me at all and I felt I was wasting time trying to find something I liked. He seems bland compared to most of the other well-known directors in 1960s Paris. In spite of that, he is (or was) put forward as the mascot of the French New Wave.

I read summaries of his recent projects, or random stuff he made in the 80s, and my reaction is usually "Meh." I don't even care. I remember the trailer for his last film as 90 seconds of words flashing across the screen. That's not closing the deal with me.

I consider his early works filmopedia.

>hypocritical, dishonest and short handed at that

Agree, but is there alternative? At least it's fun.

>loved

I don't know anybody who loves him. Most hate him and some acknowledge his work while hating him.

>>14663

And? This is pretty much what everyone should do if one were him. Breton would pat him on the back.

Not really. If you don't like someone's opinion, why not rebut instead of dismissing it

I think "alt-right" only discuss about jews and interracial sex. Old movies? Nah.
