4815162342 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Just realized this pops into the AMC Lincoln Square down the 1 train tomorrow. Tempting to try and take advantage of the NYC weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I sometimes wonder if directors are told to just think of a random position to put their hands in for the photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newknicksfan Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Marty no no. overall yes but not right now. O. Russell is at his peak, while Marty isn't the Marty of old. I say the Coens though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilmac Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 Apparently Scorsese is going to direct a couple more and then retire. Perhaps Silence will finally get made. You know he's big-time when there is an AUTO-CORRECT function for Martin's last name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dashrendar44 Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) O'Russell better than Marty? Not even in a dream when American Hustle is like a Scorsese's retro-crime/drama exercise for dummies.(Paul Thomas Anderson has done that Marty's mock up in his career as well with Boogie Nights). O'Russell's best is past him. His truly best are his first movies until he hit big with Three Kings and then went totally demented and self-indulgent with Huckabees. Fighter is a run-of-the-mill Oscar whoring biopic. SLP is an inoffensive romcom. Even when Marty is sleepwalking or misfiring, his movies are still among Hollywood's best of the crop.

TLK Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 O Russell is great at getting the best out of his actors but he is far from the greatest director in Hollywood. Coens, Tarantino, Marty and many more directors are better than him. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) For this scene, DOR asked Paul McCartney to use a very famous song of his and Macca only accepted because he said he was a Jlaw fan.

Cairo Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 For this scene, DOR asked Paul McCartney to use a very famous song of his and Macca only accepted because he said he was a Jlaw fan. That's not quite how the story went although close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 (edited) O'Russell said it himself that he puts characters over story. And it shows. He creates great characters, but it seems to be at the expense of the story. Edited December 13, 2013 by The Stingray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
