A dame to kill for. That would be Eva Green and her tremendous cans. Movie sucked

[VinylGuy]

Gone girl.

Amazing. Ben affleck and rosamund pike are both excelent..the score is one of trent and atticus best work aand it might be Fincher's best storytelling since Zodiac.

Anyone see The Signal? I want to know if it is worth the watch.

Anyone see The Signal? I want to know if it is worth the watch.

Not yet, but the director's first movie, Love, was great.

Also, I can barely even put into words how much I fucking HATED Gone Girl. One of the most deplorable, disgusting, irresponsible pieces of garbage I've seen in a while.

Yes!

Pretty sure that means I'm gonna LOVE it. Thanks, V!

Probably not. I've read the book, so I have an idea what he might be driving at. Though, it may be the mirror of my expectation too, given how differently we see things.

Well, without getting too in depth (I'm gonna record a podcast episode on it and I don't wanna blow my load now), it's related to misogyny and mistrust of women, especially when it comes to sexual assault. If I say anything more, it will become spoilery, so...

Saw The Double. Turned out to be one of my most hated movies of all time.

At first I thought it would be an entertaining if unoriginal Brazil clone, but there was little entertainment to be had from a terrible script, weak acting by Eisenberg and several tropes lifted directly from far better films.

Jesse Eisenberg plays two characters and somehow manages to be worse at it than Jean Claude Van Damme in Double Impact. His mopey, timid "good" twin becomes loathsome after 5 minutes (and unfortunately this act is relentlessly played out for nearly the entire film) and by the end you are praying for him to die. I can't remember the last time I hated a character so much.

The other, "evil" twin is, well, there isn't really much character to be had here. We are mostly told that he is the opposite of the other character in every way, but never actually shown it. Other characters are just inexplicably drawn to him. Women, co-workers and bosses love him, but the script isn't smart enough to show why. We are just supposed to go with it. Fundamental filmmaking fail.

Seriously, is Jesse Eisenberg an alien? Has he never seen a human being walk? HOW DOES THIS GUY KEEP GETTING WORK?

The other, non-Eisenberg character doesn't fare any better. She's the typical object of affection, who, again, is never really fleshed out in any way. She's pretty, and thus worthy of our love. Otherwise, she's an empty shell, and later fairly terrible. One gets the feeling that winning this girl would be more of a punishment than a reward.

Its overbearing sameness from the characters and the visuals from start to finish.

F+

Its about a lot more than that. It adress the problem of social media in a brilliant way; and misogny? No,no...its also brings the Subject of how powerful women can be.

Brilliant movie.

Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters

So goofy and unpretentious I kinda thought it was entertaining. I expected something that would take itself way too seriously. Gretel was little more than tits and lips, but the cartoon troll was a hilarious touch.

Like I said, I don't wanna get too in depth here, but just stating that the movie has some other women who aren't crazy is a bit of a straw man. The issues with the depiction of Amy are much more deeply problematic and cannot be alleviated by something that ancillary. Also, how is Nick a psychopath?

"Insidious 2"

Blah. Other than the absence of gore, none of the goodness of the first one carried over.

[Farmer John]

Watched Harmontown last night and thought it was really great. Dan Harmon is a fascinating documentary subject.

[BurtReynolds]

Watched Boxtrolls again. Haven't seen a movie twice in a long time. The end credits bit is so cool
