Dark academia: -Dead poets society -Mona Lisa smile -Scent of a woman -Tolkien -The Riot Club -Mary Shelley -Kill your darlings -The prestige -84 Charing Cross Road -any period horror -maybe The da Vinci code for fun

Yes perfect choice

"emma" (2020) is the most cottagecore movie i've ever seen is soooo pretty

[@cinemoni]

[@raspberryfawn]

My suggestions for each: Cottagecore: - Moomin Valley (a tv show, not a film, but still) - Fern Gulley the Last Rainforest - Kiki’s Delivery Service Dark Academia: - The Hunger - The Goldfinch - Kill your darlings Light Academia: - Pride and Prejudice - The Theory of Everything Art Hoe: - anything Wes Anderson - Lolita - The Last Black Man in San Francisco Barbiecore: - Clueless - 13 Going on 30 Pastel: - The Grand Budapest Hotel - Grease Grunge: - Airheads - Wayne’s World Feel free to add any suggestions!

I feel like The Last Black Man in San Francisco can fall under Art Hoe too. I thought some scenes were really visually appealing and the sound score was really beautiful too.

You know what else could have been a good film to watch for Light Academia is “Whisper of The Heart” from Studio Ghibli. I just love the settings, the characters, what the main character is trying to figure out on what she wants to do for the rest of her. The fact that she loves to read that actually leads her to fall in love with another character in the movie. Has the idea of becoming a writer, gets lost in the real world when reading, thinking or doing things and throughout the film. I love that I relate myself to the main character and I feel like it can also fit into Light Academia list. If you haven’t watched it or never thought this film could or couldn’t have make to the list, I still recommend it to anyone who love Ghibli films and hasn’t been available to see it or wants or feels relatable or have that calm sweet slowing mood throughout the film. Also love the other films you recommend for the other aesthetic. 🥰 💕😁

[@tulip7546]

Oh man don't remind me of the pain! It's honestly one of my favourite movies ever and it's so beautiful but so sad!!!

It would be interesting to see a part 2 with these other aesthetics: spacecore, baddie, ethereal, gothcore, oriental, synthwave, lo-fi and witchcore :)

I caught a bit of Matilda on TV last week and it blew me away, right back to my childhood in the 90s. I'm big, you're small, I'm right, you're wrong, and there's nothing you can do about it! Such a deligthful film, really captured Dahl's style!

Matilda was my favorite movie as a child, and it still is! So much love for Miss Honey! 😍 And my favorite Barbie movies are the nutcracker and A Christmas Carol 😊

I loved your picks! I feel like I would also add “10 Things I Hate About You” into the grunge category, although it’s a bit lighter, because it also deals with Seattle, the 90s, punk girl music, hopelessness and drugs in some aspects.

[@cinemoni]

Ooo nice!! Espero que las disfrutes 💜

[@DoraKouknakou]

Also for cottagecore; Anne of green gables (1985), it may also fit the image of light academia, because Anne loves to learn and write, but generally the aesthetic revolves around nature and you get to see the beauty of Prince Edward Island, so cottagecore is more suitable.

[@asimplesolitude]

Some I can think of that wasn’t mentioned: Dark Academia- Maurice (1987) Sylvia (2003) Art Hoe - At Eternity’s Gate (2018) Grunge- Empire Records (1995)

[@celescoles]

I recommend "Almost Famous" for grunge. It's not gritty but definitely nails the aesthetic.

[@maudsansoeufs]

For light academia, I recommend you the movie Picnic at Hanging Rock. The story takes place in a boarding school in Australia in 1900. It's directed by Peter Weir, the director of Dead Poets Society ! And for dark academia : the movie Maurice by James Ivory is really great ! (A Room With a View by the same director could also fit in the cottagecore category ♥ )

[@maudsansoeufs]

@KAMIYA HARRIS Sorry, I don't know! I watched them on a french streaming platform.

[@finjasb2704]

another dark academia and also lgbtq+ movie that I adore is 'maurice'

[@skyhideaway]

The Secret Life of Arrietty is my favourite Ghibli movie ever, it's so calming and the character dynamics are really sweet! Though dark academia is my go-to aesthetic, i also really really like cottagecore and witchcore. My favourite barbie movie is The Diamond Castle. Liana and Alexa are OG cottagecore sapphics, and i will not be taking criticism.

The best cottagecore movie is without a doubt A Quiet Man by John Ford. An absolutely beautiful of romance in an Irish village.

i just knew you would start dark academia with dead poets society 🥺🥺 funny but embarrassing story: we watched it in my english class last year and i was ofc balling my eyes out in the front of my whole class and i was so embarrassed 🙃 prior to watching it i already told my teacher that it is one of my favourite movies of all time and after finishing it, he had the audicity to ask if i had anything to say ?! hahah i basically said that i wasn’t able to respond 🤨😭 bc i was literally crying like a baby ???

[@BrightLifeVideos]

anyways, after this tragic moment in my high school career (lmao), i realised what a huge power a teacher like him had, because many of us remained silent after the movie and i think i wasn’t the only one who was touched by it (it was at least the 5th time of me watching it btw). so now i’m studying english language and literature so i might follow in his footsteps one day ☺️
