I want to read your Concussion review. Also, I think the movie will do good business. The marketing campaign is good. When I say good business, I mean something like half of what The Lone Survivor did, tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are free to like it, tho. The Asian legends are true. All of them. Reveal hidden contents I knew it was too good to be true. Unsure if joke about penises.

I mean, it is shot by Soderbergh, who is a great cinematographer with an extensive array of accolades. It is some of the best ensemble work of the year from Tatum to Mangialleno to Smith. It also feels fresh and new because it is so inclusive. It makes no spectacle of its gay audience and even embraces them in parts. Otherwise, it is uncompromising entertainment. It is just great. And I'm not the only one who thinks this-- high brow critics are giving it a ton of list mentions and attention. I'm writing a series of pieces about films that got tepid response that absolutely don't deserve it: MMXXL, Joy, Youth and Saint Laurent are the first four of the yer. And it is even entertaining for straight men. One of my butchest, cinephile, man friends has it at number five for the year, even ahead of MMFR. It is a total masterpiece. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 When I saw Joy today, the audience was talking more about Star Wars than Joy before the movie started lol. Probably because the next three showings had already sold out by the time I arrived for Joy (a half hour before showtime) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 So the only thing I like about the new SW album is pretty much the music from the originals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
