They actually said they rewrote Game Night more or less from scratch, but didn't receive a credit. -
they aren't his dad and brother. And I'd argue their stoicism (not indifference - as I remember, they are of course shaken by it) is a perfectly fine response given the enormity of what they were involved in, and makes the senseless tragedy of George's death more starkly felt. The whole movie is about making you understand death as a fact, not milking your tears a la Spielberg at every turn.

Starring Viggo Mortensen as Tony Lip constantly explaining Aretha Franklin to the audience.

Think this has what it takes to open real big (possibly 50+) but even then I wouldn't be surprised to see it finish below Get Out, I figure legs will be solid but not that special.

Olivia Colman was right there goddammit. -
Nope and nope. I took a look at her filmography just now and now I get why... yeesh. Her only movies I'm likely to see even after this are Everyone Says I Love You and Slums of Beverly Hills, both of which she did as a teenager. But hopefully RD leads to greater things cause she's crazy good in it. And I see she's in Honey Boy so that's cool.

Finally got around to True Detective finale. Don't know if it made this season my favorite of the three - need to chew on how it reframes some plotting/character moments in the early episodes - but as far as depth and emotional resonance and dramatic use of the passage of time there's no contest. All involved can be proud of this.

Man, people cutting together trailers really love their shots of ballerinas raising their arms in a pool of light onstage.

In fairness that was idiotic and baseless two years ago too.

A whole forum just for Mad Men talk.

If there weren't comic book movies around other movies would fill their place and there'd be discussion. The fucking MCU didn't come to save cinema from not being talked about enough.

Nobody talked about any movies on internet forums before the MCU I guess.

Saw this in September. It's a mess for sure. Some parts solid others a real patience test. More bad than good for me. Pretty perfect final scene, though, especially for Gilliam's career as a whole.
