[Kane52630]

Me seeing people going nuts over some stupid Star Wars movie meanwhile I'm just over here by myself excited for a Breaking Bad movie.

 

[Kane52630]

When nobody wants to watch Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans with me...

 

[Kane52630]

Me reading all the Joker reviews from Venice

 

[Marvolo]

Jared Leto reading the Joker reviews:

"Hello, darkness, my old friend..."

 

[Kane52630]

Me every time I see fanboys who only watch certain movies clash with critics who watches pretty much everything

[Lily Adler]

What happened?

 

[Travesty]

It got a positive RT score.

 

[Lily Adler]

It got a positive RT score.

Oh. I was expecting another plummet happened.

 

[Marvolo]

What happened?

It received 14 rotten reviews in 2 days dropping the RT score to 77%. Some people are taking issue with the films cynicism and its message. I guess they are either too foolish or willfully ignorant to understand that it's a film in which a villain is the protagonist. It's not going to have a positive message or a positive view of society. Others are griping that it's not a serious study of mental illness. Others are connecting the film to mass killings in America.

Long story short, a bunch of BS is being thrown at the film.

Claims bias in a post full of bias about a movie one hasn't seen...



Also I feel like you missed out on a lot of the criticism of the movie. Namely that it is at it's best as a blatant ripoff of Scorsese.

I didnt claim bias. I claimed they are being ignorant.

All films rip off other works . It's nothing new or even a bad thing if the film is well made.

Isn't that worse, as you haven't seen the movie?

Most of if not all stories have been told. But how you tell it, is what differentiates them. The Dark Knight was Nolan's take on Heat. And yet felt very fresh, very new. Tarantino has made a career out of "re-purposing" material. But he does it in his way. What worries me about this movie is how Scorsese-lite it all seems, while ripping off like actual shots and scenes from Scorsese flicks. More American Hustle, then actual Scorsese.

Man I died going into that thread a few days apart and seeing the opinion on Rotten Tomatoes somehow turn faster than it does with most of these movies. People in there are emailing the RT staff to haggle over the score. It's getting positive reviews. Take the win.

 

[Erzengel]

But it gives them more of an excuse to keep on wearing a Joker costume for the next few Halloweens.

I dont understand why so many seem incapable of understanding the RT score. No matter how many times they're told that it's not a chosen score.

 

[Kane52630]

Me @ the casting news for Matt Reeves' Batman

 

[Luigi]

Venturing into the "Disney Rumored to have lost confidence with Brie Larson and Captain Marvel" thread

 

[Kane52630]

They made a thread of that? lol

 

[I Am The Knight]

That a real thread?

 

[Kane52630]

It's an adventure.

Disney Rumored to have lost confidence with Brie Larson and Captain Marvel

 

[Kane52630]

You know who you are.

 

[Guts]

How I know I'm going to feel clocking out Friday after working nine days in a row.

Falling asleep in a field of narcotics?

We've all been there.

 

[Guts]

Just like Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion falling asleep in that field of poppies.
