Why did it fail?

I don't know but I'm sure someone will find a way to blame Disney

i found it boring. was shit really.

I'm watching it right now. It's pretty damn good.

Because he's still obsessed with acting and writing in his own movies and it just doesn't always work, in fact his brother should've been the lead in all his shitflicks

Argo could've been pretty good with any other director. stupid movie

Punishment for his involvement in BvS.

I like Ben but I honestly think he's a better actor than a director/writer.

that poster looks bad

Shit dialogue like this really didn't help the film at all.

What was the last Roaring 20s movie to come out anyway?

It's like he really wants to play dress up and pretend to be a 1920's gangster so he produced a movie to do so without being laughed at.

>without being laughed at.
Well that didn't work.

not enough quips

The Accountant would have been so much better if they erased the Strong Independent Up-And-Comin Black Female Cop plotline and had more accounting/fighting/autism

Meh, it was barely a footnote in the movie so I didn't mind, and at least her character wasn't some paragon of virtue but a fuckup trying to stop being a fuckup

Watched Live by Night last night and jesus what a fucking mess of a movie. I know it was said to be pretty bad upon release but I wasn't expecting THAT bad. I don't even know if it's a positive thing but the one thing I was shocked with was just how many times there was clearly a lot of money pumped into scenes full of extras, large scale sets of the 1920's only to wind up being some 4 second shot of Affleck sitting in a chair/walking through a market/driving a boat with no dialogue and never seeing the setting again. Perhaps there were a ton of cut scenes or perhaps he just loved the setting and wasting money.

Structure wise this movie is a complete mess, it starts fast and all over the place but somehow feels boring and it wasn't until 45 minutes in that the basics of what the movie would be trying to do even becomes apparent, and then it failed at that too.

Late release. Would've done better in early December. Felt like an afterthought to awards season and not enough of an event on its own.

I hear there's a scene of Elle getting her fanny spanked, is that worth it?

>>80196016
It was a wasted thirty minutes of pandering

They wrongly assumed the audience would find any of it interesting. Makes Argo seem like a masterpiece in comparison.

>>80196192

>30 minutes

It was less than that, you're being far too whiny.

>pandering

to who? Man shut the hell up.

Would still be better if JK Simmons played cop alone, or if the woman played second-in-command with him instead of taking screentime alone.

That was pretty hot, unless I was blind and stupid it also comes out of no where and is the first time you see her outside of some photographs so I was really confused but instantly recognized her and thought it was pretty hot. You only see her face throughout the spanking. Random but sexy scene, maybe 30 seconds, not worth watching the whole movie for.
