13 mins in and I'm starting to think there is something

>>79170178
I only saw Arrival and that film

I'd give the fucking Oscar to Hell and Highwater

Of all the films released on this decade, this was truly the one I enjoyed the most

this is hands down the best movie of the year.

And despite what the Oscar people think it is more politically relevant than some bullshit about closeted gay people.

Also had the best final scene of any Oscar movie.

>>79170178
They all are. Lion is without a doubt the worst.

When music is played on the radio, you can guarantee that they're playing one of the artists worst songs. And when you look at the album you go "why don't they play one of the other 9 better songs?"

Oscar nominees are the same shit.

Dishonest filmmaking

>and we're gonna get this money to the bank by closing time come hell or high water
Unbelievable

Too generic and predictable, nothing truly noteworthy from this flick.

>>79170439
Not true, Jeff Bridges character was GOAT as I haven't seen in a long while

>>79170469

He wasn't if you've seen other films with him, his character was lazy as fuck.

>>79170178
this was written by the person who did Sicario, right? Why is Southwest Texas-kino so good?

>Sicario
>Hell or High Water
>No country for Old Men
>True Tales
>Bernie

>>79170178
this is absolutely the worst best picture nominee this year even including the "we wuz NASA n shieet" one, it's completely forgettable as a genre film and has absolutely no conviction as a film about class in america

>>79170541
Not comparing him with other characters portrayed by him (although I think too he was the best character he has ever portrayed, way better than the kid from The Last Picture Show, the Dude, and specially better than Rooster Cogburn). I was comparing him with other characters from all the other films from recent times

>>79170559
This. This guy gets it

>>79170469
He was just doing Jeff Bridges, you dolt.

STOP CHASING ME CHIEF

>>79170541
His character wasn't lazy. He was seasoned and "has seen it all" He was jaded but obviously still cared. He wasn't looking forward to retirement and felt he was being out out to pasture. He was just realizing that he had nothing left in life except his job.

>>79170646
Again, I am not talking about his performance. I am talking about the character himself.

>>79170675
This. You understand it well and can explain it better than myself

>>79170675
not that guy but he pretty obviously meant the writing of the character was lazy (as your generic description proves), not that the actual character himself was lazy, you retard

>>79170732

This.

>>79170675
>>79170712

You both are fucking retards.

lmao gay niggers will get the oscar
fuck diversity and fuck jews

>>79170791
good, Moonlight is legitimately a well-made film, it's you who's bringing politics into it if you think this tedious, unoriginal shit is better

This must truly be a pleb filter.

HoHW was ok but I was thoroughly shocked to learn it was even being considered for top-tier awards

Guaranteed because of the anti-bank message

>>79170178

ADHD retard detected. Get off 4chan and watch the kino you dunderhead.

It was pretty good.

Weak script and editing but i had fun.

>>79170469
He was just a regular Jeff Bridges, not bad but nothing memorable or brilliant.

Was Hacksaw legitimately good?

I haven't been able to get passed Spidercuck's accent in the trailers

Welcome to Trump's America, where West Texas is played by Clovis, New Mexico because of the corporate welfare tax breaks and lack of child labor laws.

>>79170732

>>79170928

Generic as fuck cinematography, senpai.

Watch more movies.

>>79170178
>13 mins in

Has to post on 4chan

>>79170975
Dude, I am a neoconservative who sides with the banks most of the time, and I loved the film

>>79170178
Of course there's something wrong with you, fucking faggot. You're the kind of retard who stops the film in 13 minutes to make a blog post about it and then waits for yous

>>79170928
>>79171176
Honestly the cinematography of this movie sucked. Just dull, ugly digital cinematography. I watched No Country afterwards the cleanse myself

I really liked this movie a lot. Simple stories are the best.

>>79170928
so boring. I don't get why modern cinematographers drain natural colors from everything and replace it with piss yellow.

who told them it looked good?

>>79170559
Because it seems deep and capturing the American spirit but is actually a generic empty husk of a movie but you don't care since have no taste because you're American and an empty husk yourself you fucking fat piece of shit

>>79170178
Watched this last night. One of the only good films I've seen this last year. I'd give it a 7/10 or 8/10.

Whereas Arrival and La La Land were 3/10 shitfests

I still don't understand? Why did they do the robberies when they were going to be rich anyway?

>>79170928
people staring into the distance sippin on beer and saying waywardy shit: the movie

>>79171124
Hacksaw was terrible even though I already went in ready to be disappointed

>>79171616
>who told them it looked good?
People with actual taste.

>>79171708
No that can't be it

>>79171644
Because the farm was about to be foreclosed on and if they tried to use the oil first instead of paying off the bank first, they would've had a gross fucking Legal battle to deal with that would've sucked up all the Oil money. They had to pay the Bank off first or they were fucked.

>>79171708

>things that retarded capeshit fans say for 500, Alex.

>>79171632
No, they weren't

>>79171124
the story itself is completely generic and one-dimensional. It's like that German propaganda film in Inglorious Basterds, but if the character was a medic.

It's only getting attention because of its battle scenes which are completely chaotic and not very well directed. It's just people screaming and getting shot for an hour, then making quips whenever the action subsides.

just wait for it on VOD

>>79171783
Yes they were.

>>79171757
Well why did he cuck his brother out of some prime rib sex and then have nasty pig like sex later that night?

>>79170178
>pause movie early in
>bitch on the internet that you don't like it

>>79171623
>I wish I were American so badly

ftfy ahmed

>>79171913
cause he's an asshole. It's Ben Foster. He ONLY plays assholes.

>>79171961

nah he was a sweetheart in the punisher

This kino is a cuck filter.

>>79171883
No, they weren't

>>79170178
literally the best oscar nominee, kys my dude

>>79171761
I'm sorry you can't appreciate movies, anon.

>>79172170
go right ahead.

while you appreciate movies like the pleb that you are, I will be appreciating kino.

best oscar nominated movie of the year, which is a very low bar this year.

>>79172170

Are you retarded?

>>79171783
>>79172076
I'm the guy you responded to. Yes they motherfucking were. They are worthless.

>>79172394
No, they weren't, not in any way.
Too much hate, baby

>>79172507
No they were both written terrible and hamfisted. Amy Adams was horrible she can't emote and the leads in La La Land not only can't act worth a shit they csnt sing either. You fell for easily impressionable garbage. The type of shit capeshitter praise because they dont watch many films.

>>79172601
Too much hate, little brain.

>>79172601
>she can't emote

I'm just wondering if there has ever been a time where a director is screaming at an actor to emote.

Isn't going to win anything.

But I wish it would for screenplay, just for this scene. This is how you write jokes without crossing into quip territory. The dialogue in it was genuinely great. When people weren't talking about "muh banks robbing us" that is.

It's a 4/10 straight to DVD movie at best. Don't know why it was nominated for an Oscar

>>79172859
I think half the problem was Villenueves lifeless direction. I've seen Amy Adams emote more but she was so bad in it. In general I don't understand how you could make a first contact film so bland. And that combined with the cliche ending that was so obviously lead to is just shit.

>>79172726

What are you drinking? Amy was probably the best part of the movie, also one of the best performances of the year.

>>79170290
edgy

OP here.
Just finished it.
It's a really good movie. Really well done.
It's a masterpiece worth of the Oscars?
No. But apparently no nominees are.

>>79170259
It was surely very politically heavy.

Goddamn newfags are also not welcomed in my threads

>>79173248
Nothi ng are you an adamsfag or something? This board generally can't gauge acting. Because autists can't or something. Her performance was one of the worst elements. Zero nuance and emotion. Phoned in. I couldn't be bothered to give a shit for it. I daresay there's something wrong with you if you think it was even good let alone great. You likely think adams is great otherwise, she isn't she acts the same.

>>79173358
Get fucked, faggot trying to play fake agecard. Scum who comes blogging while ''''watching'''' something never was welcome

>>79173506
Yeah, it's really unfixable. "You're a complete retard", I say, "You're a complete retard
", you say.
Only one is right, but there's no convincing or honest discussion that is possible to be made.

>>79170178
>Ben Foster was robbed of nomination

Fucking bullshit, he outperformed Jeff Bridges.

>>79170178
>no blacks
This movie won't win anything because of that.

>>79174782
>two movies about blacks in the nominations
I think it's gonna be we wuz nasa and shit because it has also feminist agenda

>>79170439
this. i did enjoy it though. there was some tense moments.

>>79172247
I admire your persistence.

>>79171913
The same reason his brother smashed the fuck out of the guy with the green car.

He saw a predator attacking his brother.

>robbing a bank in a turd gen

they were asking for trouble

>>79170178
You are right

>>79170984
He is pretty smart for seeing that this No Country clone is a piece of shit

>>79177881
Sure, sure, he is as smart as you
