Nov 22-24 #s CF: $158,074,286 actual | Dark Knight triumphant after all

[Gopher]

Speaking of great performances, All Is Lost. All of you need to see it. It's so amazing.

 

I know! For some inane reason my college theater got Blue is the Warmest Colour this weekend and still hasn't gotten All is Lost or Dallas Buyers Club, both of which I'll have to watch over Thanksgiving, along with Frozen and Nebraska. 

 

I have seen Free Birds though, and that's still most memorable thing I've watched all month. Forever burned into my brain (in a somewhat awesome way).

He wasn't convincing. 

 

Minor complaint here, really dug that movie. 

 

He wasn't convincing because the kid is supposed to be putting on an act.

Place Beyond The Pines is soooo good. I've seen it 3 times already.

 

I'm probably one of the few people who thinks the film needed another 15-20 minutes to properly flesh out the third act. Felt too rushed and abbreviated.

[Cmasterclay]

I know so many kids like Dane DeHannan's friend in that movie, shit, there was times where I almost fell into that category (not like that much), and man....that dude fucking NAILED it. He was pitch perfect for what the role was supposed to be.

[CoolioD1]

The biggest complaint I read about Place Beyond The Pines is that it's too ambitious. And if that's the best thing people can go against a film with then you know it's damn good stuff.

[Michael Gary Scott]

Btw, the final battle is beginning. Ah, now it is action until the end. This movie is fucking legendary when it comes to the action.

just because you have lots of action doesnt make it great

[Lordmandeep]

The kid at the end is too emo

[tonytr87]

Place Beyond the Pines was like watching Drive for the first Half and then it turns into another film.

 

Prefer the 2nd half.

 

Rather bored of  Ryan being the same role each film.

 

Those are completely different characters. The "Drive" comparisons are, frankly, stupid. 

[Kvikk Lunsj]

ummm what lol

IM3 is better.

You just made me want to see Free Birds before Redbox.

I'm right there with ya.

[Jack Nevada]

STOP MAKING ME LIKE YOUR POSTS. GEEZ.

Apparantely slap happy and sleep deprived Jack Nevada puts out some high quality stuff.

Don't you believe that CF will have an increase on Saturday and a multiple of 2.7? 

[Ezen Baklattan]

My art house is getting Nebraska and Kill Your Darlings in December. Definitely making an effort to see those, too.

 

I'm gutted that I missed Short Term 12, but that was only showing on weekdays here, and I got swamped with work.

I get what the character was supposed to do but the actor playing him wasn't any good.

He was fine. You're wrong. Accept this and live in peace.

Place Beyond the Pines was my #10 but Before Midnight edged it out a handful of days ago

Same quiet guy who acts cool role to me.

 

He has done how many films in the same style?

Before Midnight is the best movie of the year. 

[Gopher]

You just made me want to see Free Birds before Redbox.

 

It's a totally unique experience for me. So many terrible things come together to make a product that's so utterly enjoyable but for no intended reason whatsoever. 

 

The biggest complaint I read about Place Beyond The Pines is that it's too ambitious. And if that's the best thing people can go against a film with then you know it's damn good stuff.

 

Absolutely. I still admire the film's ambition wholeheartedly. I just don't think all of it works.

So much this! Robert Redford
