It just isn't. "Fun" is probably the last word I would think of to describe that movie.

It wasn't for me. This sounds really stupid, I know, but the title gave away the game. Calling the movie The Game took all suspense out of it for me. I knew the entire time that it was meaningless. There was zero suspense.

Until the fake twist at the end. That was kinda cool because "the game" was over. But in retrospect that part hasn't really aged well. In the moment I dug it though.

Disagree. It's beautifully shot and riveting from frame one. The script veers into saccharine from time to time but I can forgive those lapses because the overall journey is so rewarding and fulfilling and Fincher shoots it with an honesty that resonates deeply with me.

I saved the blu-ray of The Game for a special moment. Watched it with my girlfriend at the time (three years ago), with good food, wine, everything. However she hated it. Like really HATED it. But I think it’s a great movie. Every time I’ve seen it since it was new.

I know you're being flippant but I honestly fell asleep the first time I went to see The Game.

Guys, neither one is very good

Thanks for explaining the joke, chud!

have you seen annihilation?

Yes I didn’t like it

what are your thoughts on ben stiller?

I'm a big Fincher fan. Somehow I'd never seen The Game. Wife & I just watched it finally a couple nights ago. Loved it.

Dragon Tattoo is now the only one of his I haven't seen. Weird that he's making World War Z 2, eh?

I thought WWZ was still up in the air, no?

But, yeah, he's one of (if not my #1) favorite directors. But I also haven't seen Dragon Tattoo.

That's funny.

Saw a report this week that it's back on & starting to shoot in March. Guess I'll need to catch up on WWZ1 some time soon..
