The Revenant

Just saw it with a friend.
Great cinematography, score.
DiCaprio's performance was great.
Movie was long as fuck. Maybe didn't need to be quite that long but whatever.
Gritty, depressing movie with an ambiguous ending.

>>64965068

The fact that he just happens to run into a lone friendly Indian seemed too convenient.

>>64965068
Saw it hours ago aswell. It was great. I'm imagining that /tv/ is going to like this one because it is generally unpopular.
Or, at least, people exiting my theatre weren't very pleasant with the pacing...

>>64965068
I too saw it today. It's essentially Gladiator in the forest. 7/10 I didn't like the noble savage ally character.

the way of the future

>>64966530

>I didn't like the noble savage ally character.

I didn't either. He just felt like a huge plot convenience. It would have been more impressive to see Glass do all that stuff himself.

>>64966445
>an ambiguous ending.

>people L I T E R A L L Y think the ending was ambiguous

literally WHAT was ambiguous? he got his revenge but instead of a happy ending, he is still tortured by the memory of his dead family. you can't get more cut and dry than this.

The Redditant is shit

Worth watching this or 13 Hours?

>>64966669
Again, people complaining about something that happened in the film that actually happened in real life. I bet you also think no one could survive a bear attack?

i swear they needed captions to pop up saying what happened to real life hugh glass for you fuckers to enjoy this

>>64965068
Great landscape shots, the movie in between was alright.

>>64966733
Both are great

>>64965068
It's worth watching for the cinematography alone. The shot where Leo walks away from the horse carcass he slept in is the most beautiful visual of the year.

saying the obvious gets you downvotes here on /tv/.

yes the cinemetography was outstanding. what that man did with grey...

also the CGI was great. whatever the technical award is, it should be up for it there.

but the acting was fucking lacking. the bear rape scene alone should show you it. leo hits the bear like a faggot. i have been on my back in a fight or two with way larger people on top of me. i sure as fuck didn't hit them with my lower palm. and if you can't get it right on take 200 inside the green room,, then you aren't acting.

>>64966815
Thanks man

>>64966698
i think he means it's not clear whether he lives or dies

>>64966833
Was it rape?

>>64966777

In real life, Hugh never had a half-breed son, and he forgave both Bridger AND Fitzgerald. There is no reason why they couldn't have changed up events a bit more. I just think that seeing Glass survive on his own for most of the journey would have made him more impressive to the audience.

>>64966920
No it wasn't, just replying before the memers

www.ibtimes.com/revenant-true-story-fact-vs-fiction-about-hugh-glass-leonardo-dicaprio-tom-hardy-2255772 for people who are interested, not all things in the movie were based on real events, but nearly all the survival stuff and bear fighting happened so.. impressing story

>>64965068
the last fight by the river was Deadwood-tier.

>>64966931
I think the point the anon is making more is some are complaining that the parts that are 'true' are being complained about as unrealistic or only there for plot convenience.

There is just no escaping the fact that this movie is one giant meme.

>Leo, Hardy and Gleeson, literally the meme trio all they had to do was find something for Fassbender to do and it would have been complete

Fuck you are this autistic
>everything good is a memexdDDxd

>>64965068
I can't get a straight answer: Why did he look at the audience at the end?

>>64967511

I think he felt empty. He got revenge, but it didn't cure his rage. He'll probably become a serial killer soon after the events of the movie.

Is this is joke?

I thought the film was decent but the music the entire way through grated and didn't fit with the scenes at all.

>>64967556

He died shortly after

>>64967618
i never said i fought a bear. but i have fought losing fights and still beat the ever living shit out of the other guy.

if you have never been in a real fight you probably don't understand. leo did not look convincing. he literally looked like he gave up after the second swing.

saw it today and it was boring and pretentious as fuck, I fucking hate Inaritu the beaner hack

How does the screener look?

>>64965068
It being long was great. It added to the character. From his perspective being out there with all those injuries had to feel gruelingly long.

Literally Reddit: The Opinion

>>64967511
haven't you ever seen Come and See or Memories of a Murderer? (or any of the other films it copied but worse?)

It's formal gesture that implicates the viewer in what has occurred. It has a distancing effect that says to the audience, a la Brecht: everything that happened is not mere fiction, but a reflection of you. Think about why I showed it to you.

And yes, it was completely unnecessary.

>>64967511
So you can see the nothingness in his eyes.
Fitzgerald was right - the revenge didn't bring his son back, and as Glass has previously said it, without his son, he is nothing, an empty shell.

It was alright. I dunno, nothing special but it was nice to look at. Just sorta alright.

Yeah I'm sure he just jumped off a mountain after that.

>>64967754
I like this answer. I thought it was a look of judgement on the crowd for reveling in his bloodshed, but I guess I viewed it wrong.

>>64967718
literally wrong

>comparing fighting a human to fighting a bear

>>64967819
do people still not 'get' birdman a year after?

look. birdman is a film about a play. about redemption. but it is shot as a play. the shots are 15 minutes long, and the idea is that they had to act like it was a play. and the two real stars are doing redemption characters.

bird man wasn't a great movie, but it was an excellent story and piece of art.

>>64967754
he didn't get revenge though, that's why he says he'll leave that up to "God", or as it turned out, the Indians.

Watching it tonight, I doubt i'll enjoy it more than Bridge of Spies though.

>>64967922
The people that dont get Birdman are the people that its critiquing and making fun of.

>>64967920
nigger if you can't fight a man you can't fight a bear. how many men have you fought?

>>64965068
I thought it sucked. I fell asleep three times watching it.

>>64967935
I get what you are coming from, but Glass chased after, chopped up and pushed Fitzgerald in the river to the Indians, not God...

>>64967977

You're right, you won't. Bridge of Spies is a completely different but overall superior movie.

Thats ok anon. This movie is a pleb filter. Since you're a pleb you wont like it. Im sure there is another showing of Star Wars for you to see.

>>64968021
sure, but the whole arc of the movie is pretty clear:

Glass wants revenge
Meets the Indian who feeds him and tells him "Revenge belongs not to man but to God"
Saves Indian slave
Gets opportunity to have revenge
Heeds Indians words, doesn't take revenge, but it's offered to him anyway by Indians as a karmic gift for saving slave.

That's literally all the film has to say.

But I did watch it. He literally crawled through the snow for over half the movie.

>>64968474
There is quite a lot said on willpower and the human instinct of survival. Not to mention the fact the the entire landscape is a metaphor for hell.

>>64965068
tried to watch it twice, gave up shortly after the bear attack both times. didn't care about any of the characters and it just seemed forced and pretentious. i loved Birdman and most of Leo's movies but this just sucks

>>64968579
i'm fairly convinced there is a paid group of people here shilling for leo. they don't care about your arguments.

i have argued over and over in the 10 threads per hour that leo does not deserve an ACTING award, but that the movie is good on other merits. no one responds and another thread is started.

leo did not act well. his green screen shit was utter bullshit and i doubt he has ever been in a fight in his life. most of it was him looking at a camera and breathing hard. he was not a good actor in this movie.

i am convinced that there are actual paid shills here on /tv/ because this is so obvious i have no idea how so many people dispute it.

>>64968600
I'd debate the "quite a lot" qualifier. What exactly does it have to say about those things, except for the tired tenet of "never give up!" and "don't be a dick to Indians!"

It's a film of extraordinary human survival, sure, but the moralist dramaturgy Inarritu forces onto a fairly flat revenge tale is anaemic and hackneyed.

>>64968624
Real question here.
How the fuck does this movie come off as forced and pretentious? I saw this complaint here several times, but I just can't wrap my head around it.
This is the movie that doesn't give a fuck about what you are getting away from it, it just shows you a struggle of a man, up to you whether you struggle with him or walk out of the theatre. Forced and pretentious?
Nah

>>64968722
Honestly I agree. Maybe not paid shills but Leophiles or something, because this movie was firmly "OK" and Leo was forgettable. Tom Hardy's character was much more interesting.

>>64968794
The opening scene is dreamlike, with people walking groggily around a tree with their arms out and the sun in their face while Leo whispers in Indian language. Lots of scenery that is shown way too long. Unrealistic dialogue. The boy is only there to give him motivation to hunt down Fitzgerald (he didn't have an indian son irl), the bear mauling is far too severe to ever survive. The horse getting shot at the beginning is laughable, fake CGI.

>>64968764
Look at all the shit he has to do while trying to survive. Most people just give up. I guess id agree that the concept itself has been overused but i thought it translated the idea on film in the best way ive ever seen.

I also dont think it was ever a liberal interpretation of indians. They fucking savages the entire film. Even at the end.

I disagree about the moralistic intent of the film.

>>64965068
The movie would've been better if like 30 minutes were cut from the middle part.

All the action scenes were amazing, especially the bear, really top notch. And Lubezki is a genius t b h.

>>64968722
I wouldn't say his performance is awful but yeah, it's certainly not worth an acting award. I feel kinda bad for saying that just because of the conditions filming and he ate a raw bison liver which is something, I guess.

But yeah, he really didn't act all that well or different than any of his other movies. It's exactly the same, super high hi's and really low lo's. He can only shout and act distressed or suave and chill as fuck and since he can't do the latter he's perfect for a guy who gets his throat cut out by a bear.

Even when he said his first couple of lines it took me out of the experience a bit just because he's got that cracking yell in every movie and his accent was kinda shit.

Tom Hardy should definitely win supporting though, he was fantastic, I thought. I kinda wish they went with Christian Bale in the lead like they originally planned.

I think the main problem with this film is that I did not feel that the actors/producers/directors were trying to give us the best movie they could, instead, I think they were simply trying to win one or more Oscars. Like, "Will this work well with the Academy?" was something they were thinking continually during shooting.

>>64968916
then you missed the entire point of the movie (and the point of the implicating gaze at the end).

Leo's Golden Globes speech is what the movie is about, morally. It supports the A story, which is that of Glass's real life tale of survival.

Man in the Wilderness is a superior film.

The Revenant is simply the representation of the artistic bankruptcy plaguing the contemporary film industry.

Like Birdman, Iñárritu's last endeavor in hackery, this latest attempt is to convince the masses that what they are viewing is something deep or meaningful, when all it has done is push forward shallow technicality and exaggeration to make the frame pulsate with vulgar loudness. Characters are mere veneers, the cinematography is pretty but so conspicuous as to be rendered aggravating and the thesis is about as overdone as DiCaprio's acting. The camera feels like it has been waiting all day for a climactic shot and the film's deliberately difficult production history is laid bare in the indulgent cinematography.

Thematic complexity and philosophical subtext take a back seat to what amounts to as basically an action movie with action stars wrapped up in the veil of arthouse. And much like Salome, what lies beneath is ultimately puerile, obscene and holding fascination only for adolescents.

Iñárritu is guilty of something far greater than simply making a bad movie. He is guilty for the crime of gestating his pretense and self-importance, forcing many others to labor over it in a misguided attempt to create art and daring to call the afterbirth a film. Perhaps instead of taking his cast and crew to the ends of the Earth in search of a better shot, the Mexican counterfeit filmmaker should have taken his juvenile and crass sensibilities to the seedy San Fernando valley. There he could have at least made a profit of filming all the money shots he wanted.

>people criticize Leo for overacting

Boring ass movie if there ever was one.

Also, why the hell did they leave his incapacitated body in the care of the one man that obviously wants him dead? Dumbest decision I've seen in recent movie memory.

>>64969845
because that's what happened in real life...

>>64969999
NOOOO I MISSED THE GET BY 1

worst day of my life

What was Hardy's accent?

Is that a historical American accent? Sounded like Pennsylvania mixed with Appalachian.

I appreciate the dedication if so.

>>64969845
The Captain was going to shoot him not 30 seconds before that decision was made. Glass's death was a foregone conclusion considering the circumstances. Why would the Captain be surprised that the money hungry fucker would volunteer once money was involved?

Ultimately, the Captain was just glad he didn't have to kill Glass himself. He would have lived on in happiness if he had never found out.

>>64965068
Lots of critics said that the movie had lots of "How did they do that?" moments?
I liked the movie a lot but I didnt really see any mindblowing moments outside of the final fight that simply looked very well made.
What were the "how did they do that?" moments and why?

>>64965068

Apparently the real Hugh Glass never had an Indian son. That was added into the movie to make him more SJW-friendly I guess. Also, he never killed Fitzgerald. As soon as Fitz gave back the rifle he stole from Hugh, he was forgiven.

Glass just really wanted his gun back.

>>64970380
>What were the "how did they do that?" moments and why?
The part where Leo's on horseback shooting Frenchmen who are also on horseback was pretty amazing honestly.

>>64970380
>What were the "how did they do that?" moments and why?
The entire movie, People were wondering how did they make it so terrible.

>>64970313
>Why would the Captain be surprised...
Because he had to break up a near fight with them a scene earlier. Now he's suddenly glad to leave Glass with a guy that hates him when he himself values Glass and his services. Why would he leave him with some guy who only cares about money and make him promise to properly bury a guy he hates?!

>>64970422
That and the opening fight sequence where the camera goes from stationary to ride-along with the Indian guy on horseback was pretty dope.

>>64966893
He dies
There's no way he lives, after all that shit and he's too weak to walk and there's nobody else around.

People can prolong their deaths until after some important event, this is a real phenomenon. The movie makes it clear he should be dead already.

>>64970508
That guy was badass but he got killed so easily. I wish the opening battle was longer and we got more "moments" from Fitzgerald and Glass.

>>64970577
It's incredibly clear that be lives.
>As long as you breath, you can fight
>Movie heavily emphasizes his breathing throughout
>Leo's breathing is heard well into the credits

I wasn't really high on the movie as I was watching it but now that it's been a few hours it's practically all I am thinking about right now. It definitely left an impression.

>>64970577
Again: all this shit literally, in real life, actually happened to Glass, and he lived for another ten years. there is no ambiguity in the film that he lived or died. he lived.

Blood Meridian + Bear Grylls: the film

>>64970801

>Again: all this shit literally, in real life, actually happened to Glass

Except his son wasn't killed and he never killed Fitzgerald.

>>64970419
Glass also was never attacked by Indian tribes. Instead he was helped by them along the way, with one tribe stitching the bear hide into his back to seal his wounds. He also rode a raft for most of the journey. Maybe some of the changes were needed to make it more dramatic instead of appease quotas. Except that bear hide thing, that would have been cool. And he supposedly only spared Fitzgerald because killing a soldier would have gotten himself killed. He didn't seem to care much either way, but if he had killed Glass' son it would have certainly tipped him over.

>>64970908
I never said everything in the film happened in real life, only the things that people are calling out as unrealistic

>no one could survive a bear attack!
>the injun helping him was a plot device!
>he couldn't have made his way that far with his injuries, he must've died!

etc

>>64969038

This is the most pretentious review of anything I've ever read. and I thought the Revenant was 'okay'.

Am I the only one who genuinely found it difficult to understand half the dialogue? I found it especially bad for the first half until Fitzgerald stays back with Glass. It wasn't until later that I was able to piece together stuff they were talking about in the beginning.

So if he never had an injun son, fitzgerald couldn't have killed him. So what would he be upset with fitzgerald over?

>>64971375
It was hard to hear sometimes because the dialogue audio would just channels depending on where a character was standing from the perspective of another character. Pretty jarring at first but you get used to it.

>>64971433
>>64971375

please be honest with me- is this a meme? i had no issue with the dialogue. are you not american?

There was never a moment in any movie I've ever seen, including gore shit I've seen on 4chan, but my stomach lurched when they turned Glass on his side fresh after the bear attack and showed his bleeding lacerations on his back.

There was an audible groan from the audience in my theater.

>>64971668
my theater (in brooklyn if you're interested) groaned pretty much any time something violent happened- showing the wounds, the hand bite during the bear fight, fitz getting his fingers lopped off.

didn't bother me though 2BH, made it pretty fun. it was a small theater so it wasn't too loud

>>64971668
People only groaned in the cauterize scene

>>64971647
No this isn't a meme or anything. There was something off for the first part of the movie, almost like the background music was too loud or they just mumbled a lot because I just physically couldn't make out half the words they said. It was most troubling after they got off the boat and Fitzgerald was arguing. But later on it got better

>>64971844
where are you from?

>>64971668
The part where the bear took a swipe at Leo's throat and he stuck his tongue out got me pretty good. The cauterize scene wasn't bad. I actually laughed at Fitz's response to losing fingers.
>Gad-DAMMIT

>>64971844
I dunno man I understood it all fine.

I'm accustomed to the accents already though for living in the south

>>64971668

My audience was composed of 99% old people, my friends and I, and exactly one 15 year old who must have snuck in or something. All were totally quiet throughout the movie.

I love how he really tracked, baited, and cornered Fitzgerald like an animal. That was the best part of the movie easily. It was rough getting there but the whole final sequence elevated the movie.

>>64971874
Born in USA, Cali but now live in Australia. My girlfriend thought the same thing as me

>>64971668
I wish they had included a scene of him putting his back on a log so the maggots would eat the dead flesh off his wounds like he did in real life. Seems odd to leave that bit out considering it's pretty fucking badass.

>>64971790
kek, no one in my theater reacted until he lit the gunpowder and someone from the back yelled "what the fuck did he do?"
I guess audiences are too retarded to know what cauterizing is.

>>64971940
>It was rough getting there but the whole final sequence elevated the movie.
totally agree, reminded me of shawshank

>>64971940

I loved it. The fact that Glass needed the Indians to kill Fitzgerald for him kind of rubs me the wrong way, though. Why would they even care?

>>64965068
It's a stupid white man making grunting sounds.

>>64971959
>I wish they had included a scene of him putting his back on a log so the maggots would eat the dead flesh off his wounds like he did in real life. Seems odd to leave that bit out considering it's pretty fucking badass.

c'mon, really? people are already calling out most of the stuff that actually happened as too unrealistic, putting that in would've been too much. it would've seen like they were going for shock factor. i totally get why they left it out

>>64965068

My friends and I got into a minor argument about this after the movie ended: was shooting the bear smart or not?

I said yes because it seemed like the bear was coming back to eat him.

They said that the bear probably would have just left if Glass hadn't shot it.

>>64972008
Fitzgerald hates Indians and fears what they did to him. He even gets freaked out by someone scratching a canteen because it sounds like his scalping. Getting fed to Indians is a suitable punishment.

>>64972038

>Movies should be made based on what plebs will think

>>64971940
I hate Inarritu and found most of Revenant tolerable but not particularly relevatory, but I gotta admit that entire sequence was one of the best Western showdowns in years. Perhaps decades.

>>64972077

>Fitzgerald is bad for disliking Indians that mutilated him and killed 95% of his co-workers

Fitzgerald does a lot of bad things. That's not one of them.

>>64972162
what I liked best about it is that never have I ever felt more like watching two real men actually fighting to kill the other

>>64972038
I guess but it's hilarious what people will take seriously and what they won't

He actually did put his back against a log to prevent gangrene, but that's too much. He didn't really meet a friendly random indian who used running boar magic to heal his rotting body in a bear sauna but that's just fine.

>>64972166
I'm just saying that Glass just killing him outright wouldn't feel like "justice" so giving him to the Indians feels more right.

>>64972008
he didn't need them to kill him, he left it up to outside forces. see my previous post: >>64968474

it's a payoff for the events that happened beforehand, a kind of anti-colonial justice.

Why the fuck do you go to the FUCKING REVENANT AND TALK DURNING THE MOVIE?!

saw it earlier.

Cinematography and music was fantastic, especially that ominous three-beat theme throughout the film.

Leo did great in playing something different. Not a rich playboy lady's man but a haggard old man with a burning desire for vengeance. However it fell short with his dialogue primarily revolving around grunts and moans, and the same pained expression on his face.

Harry's characterization was pretty poor; one-dimensional and was overly simple.

The pacing got pretty slow especially around the middle. For a movie under three hours I felt as if it exceeded four. The violence felt pretty real and cringed at a few parts, unlike the garbage in capeshit.

if anyone else would have played him, the public interest wold be half

>>64972272
Because Fitzgerald wasn't giving him the satisfaction, taunting Glass as he was bleeding out. Glass took away his chances of dying with dignity by letting the Ree finish the scalping.

>>64972256
Also I'll admit that the slow pacing was good to describe the slow grueling journey; however it just felt a bit too long to keep the audience engaged

>>64972256

The pacing was actually a lot faster than I was expecting. I thought this was going to be a pure survivalist movie with a fight at the beginning, a fight at the end, and nothing but gritty wilderness survival in between.

>lying on the Internet

but why?

>>64965068
Just saw the film. It was really a transcendental experience, and I've never used that term for a movie before.

The acting was on par with any big typical Oscar bait, except this film had substance and wasn't just trying to go for an academy award, the brilliance is in its simplicity of direction and the honesty in the experiences it tries to represent.

The story was set up in a way that you could believe, and wasn't just some forced, arbitrary set of events. The film takes you on a visual journey from start to finish with a haunting sound-track that boosts the ambient scenery and background into something like that of a dramatic stage-play, where it becomes as valuable and as influential of a character as the actors themselves, which is good because there are a lot of scenes where land-scape shots are presented, which in a way tell the mood of the characters themselves.

The long shots of action sequences made all of the action, but also the drama, much more compelling as you had few quick cuts except during the dream sequences, which were emotionally charged and gave you the feeling that you were with the character, experiencing this tragedy with them, and gave you personal insight into what drove them. The way it was shot lent itself more to poetry than how one would expect a screenplay to read and was truly a shining moment for cinema as a medium.

All of this is in earnest belief, and if you think I'm joking, you clearly haven't seen the film.

>>64973187

Where does it say they made the movie solely for awards? I've perused the article (and I've actually read it before)—nothing backs your claim.

FUCKING HACKS!
>IMDB trivia: Shot only with natural light, but there is one exception according to cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki: A campfire sequence at night where the wind was causing the fire to pulse in a distracting way. "We had to lay a bunch of light bulbs around the fire to create a cushion of light," Lubezki admits. "That's all the light we used." [16 Dec. 2015, Variety]

You're right, I liked it when Glass started talking magically after crawling towards his son's body when a day earlier he couldn't even open his mouth. The part where he started walking in about a week when his foot was twisted the other way around was also believable. And don't get me started on how he managed to survive a 100 foot fall into a snowy tree without any of his wounds opening or him cracking another bone. Because I wanted to jump up from my seat and congratulate Inarritu for knowing how physics and the human body works.

>something like that of a dramatic stage-play
Remind me again of the last stage-play you saw that was set across a vast expanse of snowy wilderness. Bergman made filmed plays, not this John Ford wannabe Mexican.

>What was exaggerated? It all seemed relatively grounded, if you can suspend your disbelief for the miraculous-ness of nature and the human spirit.

Maybe exaggareted was the wrong word. What I'm trying to say here, is that the other guy was trying to justify some of the scenes and plot of the movie that didn't happen based on the fact this was a real life situation.
And you can't actually do that, it's trying to justify fiction.

>You're right, I liked it when Glass started talking magically after crawling towards his son's body when a day earlier he couldn't even open his mouth
If you consider that "talking". Adrenaline, especially when it's fueled with rage and anger you've probably never felt in your life. And it was probably longer than that, the time lapses were subjective, you couldn't tell how much time was passing, which I think was the aim of the director, to show all of it blend together like a delirious dream.

Congrats on being so simple-minded you cannot make comparisons between separate aspects of a piece. Does someone say that a cake reminds him of one thing and one thing only, or does each part of that cake, the icing, the outer crust, the inner fluff, all have a different meaning and texture that makes it come together as something else entirely?

Please, if you're going to come at me with such simple-minded strategies, I suggest you go for something clever, not something mundane and unimaginative as that.

>>64966931
He forgave Fitzgerald ONLY because of the consequences of murdering a US solider outweighed getting revenge. He forgave Jim because of his age at the time, which is relatively close to what happens in the film. Fitz bullies Jim into doing it because he's young and inexperienced, and also lies to him.

>>64974735
Ot wise its got interesting characters, meaningful action scenes and a sense of wonder beyond our universe. Prequel wise because George Lucas is insane and it makes the movies fun in a ridiculous sort of way (they're not really technically good though).

From the looks of your post, it seems you're incapable of actually using reason to counter any of what I said, and are going strictly for the ad hominem. My comments may have attacked your character and intelligence, but they were only compliments towards my overall statements.

>Compared to other dramatic films, this had sense of raw realism to it, where the actors were responding to their environments and the events that happened, they weren't trying to just "drum up" emotion on the spot because the script says to be sad here.
I guess that's a very poor explanation for all the dream sequences that were hammering home the message of "Look, poor Leo his pure nature loving Indian wife was taken from him, so sad please insert tears." Good filmmakers know the art of nuance and subtlety and that's something idiots like Leo, Inarritu or yourself have to look up in a dictionary.

>I was making a remark about the characters, and the long shots that focused on them, and how plays have sets that are built/made to reflect the characters and the mood, much like here.
What was here? Snow, snow and more snow? Reflecting their isolation, or something? And spliced with some shots of trees blatantly copying Lubezki's own work from The Tree of Life? Don't get me wrong, it was pretty to look at, but there was no deeper meaning to the setting beyond the surface level of a hostile wilderness.

>"Hoo hoo, here my pretentious opinion, hoo hoo!"
Don't blame me for you being cinematically illiterate. The Revenant is as much a play as Transformers is. This isn't inherently bad, but there are directors whose aesthetic was filming essentially staged plays.

>Congrats on being so simple-minded you cannot make comparisons between separate aspects of a piece.

So what time period did this take place in? I'm assuming they were in the north western portion of the United States due to the map. The mention of the Sioux indians and the few mentions of "re-enlisting" makes me think that this takes place between the civil war and the general events that took place with Mac Arthur's last stand.


Then what would that make Fitzgerald? An Ex-confederate soldier? An ex-union soldier? It wouldn't make sense for him to be either because he wouldn't really be re-enlisting into the US army if he was a rebel, and he doesn't seem like a union soldier because his family comes from Texas.


Which makes me also think that this could've taken place before the civil war, but were people that far out west before 1861?

Basically, this fellow was part of a trapping expedition that moved up the Missouri River system. The party was attacked by Arikara (called “Ree” in the movie) in May of 1823 and Glass was injured in the leg. Then in August of that same year, Glass was hunting around Grand River and was mauled by a bear.

>just don't bitch about it when people point out your flawed opinion about how a movie uses images to portray what's happening, you retarded faggot.

>>64975316

Based on the real historical events that inspired the film, the plot begins in 1823.

>>64975415
>If you don't appreciate mood setting and atmosphere
No, but seriously. How was the setting and atmosphere related to what the characters did?

>>64975464
>if you didn't like this movie, you are obviously a Star Wars fan

>you're clearly an illiterate who's never seen Bergman's work

Oh, okay, you're a hypocrite. Glad we got that out of the way.

>>64975464

I hate that the anon you're arguing with has the same taste as me, but "pretend arthouse" and all the other condemnations are overboard. In no way does arthouse have to be "2deep4u." An artist you referred to, Bergman, is known for lots of symbolism, as are directors like Tarkovsky and Kariostami. But then there are people like Ray, Ozu, Welles, Hitchcock, Allen, Fellini, Soderbergh, and so on who tell grounded, humanist stories.

The Revenant is an excellent movie; it's also about survival. The fact it isn't layered in a way that would make Kubrick or Lynch's head spin doesn't mean it's not as valid of an artistic endeavor.

You're, of course, free to dislike it, but to not recognize its merits is disappointingly willful ignorance.

>>64975540
Do you enjoy shitposting?

>>64975532
I'd have to watch it again to get all my thoughts completely in order, as it was more of an experience than it was a structured story with a clear message.

It was very interpretable, which I appreciated.

>>64975491

>It's based on a true story you niggers, the guy survives.

The real Hugh Glass survived (until he was killed by the Ree later on) by this fictional account diverges from the real story is several significant ways, so it really isn't a stretch to believe that this fictional Hugh Glass will die of his injuries very shortly after the events of the movie.

From my perspective, the ending with Leo staring into the camera seemed to strongly imply that he wasn't gonna make it.

>>64975591
Jesus Christ, you really are an idiot.

>>64975578
I'll tell you when I start.

>>64975628
>being a hypocrite

>>64975614
Hmmmm, why, because I'm smarter than you and that offends you?

It's okay, take your time, I know it's hard for you to type long messages.

Kekadoodle doo.

>>64975658

>he has none so he just shitposts
I actually feel ashamed for liking the same movie as you.

>>64975645
>quality post

>>64975596

The ending scene strongly reminded me of Gladiator's ending. I believe Glass was essentially a specter of vengeance, and upon completing what he set out to do, he was content with reuniting with his loved ones in the afterlife. It would be congruent with his spiritual journey and parallels his son's arc (survives earlier only to eventually be killed).

Looks like you've started.

You could've just said I don't know.

>>64975689
>I respond calmly and civilly about how my finer thoughts on the film are still very amorphous

>hurr he has none

You wouldn't even deserve it at this point anyway. You're just an angry child. Lol, grow up for fucks sake.

>>64975689
So do I.

>>64975658

When multiple strangers tell you you're a dumb, unlikable faggot, you should probably reexamine what you believe to be true about yourself.

>>64975778

So you're a manchild with a fragile ego, then. Otherwise, I don't understand why you feel the need to stoop to the level of shitposting and desperately vying for the last word instead of making your point and moving on.

>>64975778
>grow up for fucks sake.
>says the person who enjoys Oscar bait
Can't wait to ignore your reply to this. You just love to keep on going when you've been utterly destroyed haven't you? Literally worse than a shit smearing toddler.

>>64975774
Why would I say that? Am I to be under the impression I'm an idiot like you?

Sorry, but I let films sit a while before going too in depth because there's more to think about than just images.

I asked you to clarify your reasoning. And you have none. Fuck off.

Not really, when those children are dumb, unlikeable, faggots.

You see, unlike you, I'm not a totally complete loser who relies on retards on the internet to boost my ego. I have actual intelligence and likeability that does that for me.

Please, do shitpost about my trip some more, I have to masturbate tonight and your tears will help a lot with that.

>>64975836
>coming from the manchild who angrily ranted about my post

Kek

Anyone else?

>>64975963

Mate, you're honestly embarrassing yourself. You also seem to be mixing up who's said what to you. I recommend going to bed.

>>64975963
Penis.

>>64971022
In real life, when his wounds were super infected and gross, Hugh Glass found a rotting log full of maggots and laid on it so the maggots would eat the infected flesh.

In all honesty I feel like they should have left that part of it true to history instead of having the Indian guy treat his wounds.

>>64976014
Did you just message a bunch of your friends to get in this thread and shitpost angrily towards me? Cause that's what it's looking like, when the same 2, or 3, people are the only ones angrily shitposting towards me.

Kek, glad to know I've angered you though. I really, deeply, firmly, enjoy that.

>>64975941
Okay
>how was the mood/setting related to what the characters did

It acted as both a mirror, a lamentation, and a foreshadowing of the events in the film that happened, were happening, and what they were feeling. The wolves attacking the bison scene meant personally for me how the characters were ambushed and attacked, but also on a deeper level, probably reflected the cruelty of nature, and as a result, the cruel nature of man.

Now fuck off. ;)

I think we could be friends.

>>64976229

You didn't anger me. I'm genuinely letting you know you're coming across as a clown. And as unbelievable as it may be to you, you don't exactly have a winning personality, which is why multiple people are ragging on you.

Anyway, I have no horse in this race. I think The Revenant is one of the year's best. I also think you need to grow up.

Cheers.

Birdman is his most clever work by far, if anything it's not getting enough praise for the use of long shots to make it feel like a broadway show rather than a movie.

Still I expect 4chan to hate Inarritu until Trump loses the elections.

The final act was shit, but the rest of the film was pretty based.
