Death Note (Netflix) is one of those rare pieces of great cinema to be released in the last 76 years (since Citizen Kane). The cinematography was absolute quality that really helped drive the tone of the film. The OST (composed by the legendary Atticus Ross) evokes emotion from each scene and really only furthered a strong and compelling narrative way that you just don't see much these days.
The set pieces were crafted with nothing but love, care, and incredible attention to detail. You can really tell that Zoe Jirik deeply cared about the world that she was helping to create.
The writing on this film is beyond words. Each scene was pivotal to the overall story and not a single line of dialogue was wasted. Truly a monumental amount of effort went into this script. It's especially brilliant when you compare it to the low effort superhero flicks (BvS, WW, SS etc) that flood the market like too much water in a dam.
Many adaptations these days get it wrong, and fall short of their source. Let's just settle this once and for all, Death Note did not. The character of Light in the original series is a little too unrealistically brilliant. What Wingard gives us is a realistic anti-hero bursting with depth. Not to mention the improvements on L's idionsyncracies (that aren't clear for the casual viewer of the original), which make his explosive emotional behaviour so much more engaging. What's more (than Dafoe's superior Ryuk?) is a palpable love story expertly handled amidst a film already thick with content.
All in all, Adam Wingard should be praised as one of the greatest film makers of our time. The Guest, V/H/S 2, and now this. Rarely does a generation get to witness such brilliance. C'est la vie, Nolan.

Is this bitch the dumbest character ever? She ruined Dorne and ended up seeing all her daughters die.
She didn't ruin Dorne, Dumb & Dumber did.
Harry Potter is for homosexuals.
Game of Thrones is for women.
Doctor Who is for women.
Star Wars is now for women.
MARVEL is for homosexuals and women.
DC Comics is for edge lords and women.
Star Trek has always been for virgin neckbearded manchildren who engage too much focus into fictional autistic ships.
All of the popular franchises are terrible and for the worst people that humanity has to offer.
How come there is no such thing as a good franchise?

no one. no one will ever make a movie about him.
Rich Piana is a nobody to everyone outside of insecure intellectually weak bodybuilders, spending their days worrying about consuming so many meals and calories and working out for so many hours every day. No one gives a shit. Rich Piana disgusted people with his appearance, he is in no way a role model, a inspirational figure, or someone to who should deserve praise. He was a insecure dead beat druggy that died in his mid 40s.

2 years later, this was confirmed pointless
In the book he rapes some random grill pretending to be Arya (who Mance Rider goes to save the moment Jon hears that Ramsay has one of his sisters).
In the show they changed it to Salsa because ???

He wanted to make an heir.
The show suggest she's been sexually abused over a long time.
Not pregnant though.
I guess he missed.

THE ABSOLUTE STATE OF DC AND SNYDER.
I love how this board celebrates mediocrity and despises artistic integrity.

Do you have a point?

>May: Joss Whedon replaces Zack Snyder as director
Well, it's just to oversee post-production. Zack has to deal with a family tragedy after all, so it's only normal that they find somebody else...
>June: Danny Elfman replaces Junkie XL
Well, that sucks but Elfman has done some memorable scores as well, like the Spider-Man stuff and... Oh shit, Avengers: Age of Ultron? Which was also directed by Whedon? Oh well, creators have their favorites...
>July: reshoots announced with Cavill's mustache removed in post-production
Reshoots are normal, right? Sometimes scenes just don't work as intended and need to be fixed a bit...
>August: Joss Whedon receives writing credit, implying a change of at least 33% of the script
Fuck it. At this stage they might as well call it Avengers 3.
If 4chan was a high school movie, what role would each board be typecast as? ex. the jock, stoner, and so on
/pol/ would be the edgy kid with no friends and sever acne dressed in a trench coat and MAGA hat.

>/pol/ and /mlp/ shoot up the Israeli Studies club
>>87106948
/pol/ would be the most popular kid in school because all the other boards are constantly hating on it while simultaneously trying to imitate it

This is one of those lines that I like to quote sometimes, even when it doesn't make sense to. Nobody ever gets it but I do it for my own happiness.
Has anyone ever seen this film? I don't think I've ever seen it mentioned here. My uncle recommended it to me a while back and I'd pretty much forgotten about it until today, so I watched it and thought it was pretty good. I was surprised that I'd never heard of it before. I liked that they focused more on procedural and the setting of the USSR, rather than showing gory murders. The murders themselves weren't graphically shown and it didn't take away from the film at all. I also liked how as the film went on, the Colonel and Viktor became closer to friends versus their original cold acquaintance.
Any other True Crime films you like that are lesser known?
Maybe I should have waited until there were less than 20 GoT threads to make this thread.
