I have only seen a few since I hated most of them

S tier: There Will Be Blood

C tier: Punch-Drunk Love

D tier; Boogie Nights, The Master

Haven't seen:

Hard Eight

Magnolia

Inherent Vice - looks stupid

Phantom Thread - looks good maybe, need to watch

Licorice Pizza - looks horrendous

One Battle After Another - people are raving about this Online but the trailer is very bad.

I think most of his movies appeal to Gen X somehow in a way that eludes me. TWBB is a masterpiece maybe because the time period it is set in meant he had to make a real movie instead of appealing to gen x

I don't know what it is about Magnolia, but white people seem to love the movie. I've just observed this IRL among a certain age group and also on X/Twitter. White UMC types dig it.

I thought it was OK but not great, but I'm only 1/2 white.

Boogie Nights is the only one I would even consider watching a second time.

I assume the Jews keep him around to warn us that things could always be worse.

The pace on Boogie Nights is terrific. Like the first time you watch Pulp Fiction. It has that type of pace.

👏 lfg

I watch movies with my gay ass bf and he's very influential because he's more artsy so I get a different perspective on what the movie meant or did.

I can still be hyper critical or adoring but movies are a good balance.

I've never been a lib, I watched it in theaters when I had just got out of jail for burning a cross on someone's lawn. I thought it was a beautifully shot masterpiece of a film

I generally like his stuff and thought Phantom Thread, Hard Eight, and Magnolia are worth watching. Inherent Vice didn't do anything for me, and I haven't seen the other ones you're asking about. I enjoyed Boogie Nights so feel free to discount accordingly. FWIW I don't think the movie glorifies pornography
