doesn't the kid in OP's pic look oddly proportioned to anyone else?

whenever i see that pic it always seems his right arm is WAAAAY too short for his body. Middle of his forearm is only meeting the top of his fucking head
>>
Huh, it's almost as if you watch a lot of films your standards change to reflect your knowledge of the industry. Weird, who would have expected that?
>>
>>81939994
I thought Boyhood was a mediocre film that had the novelty of filming different parts as the children grew up. All that effort and so-so film.
>>
oh boy here come the reddit letter media fanboys to shit on boyhood with the same arguments
>>
>>81940137
children usually have big heads relative to the rest of their body
>>
Had there been separate actors in the movie, BH wouldn't have gotten near as many marks. It's so damn mediocre

This

It amazes me that it was butting heads so much with Birdman at the Oscars, that movie was so much better, even if you took away it's gimmick

>>81940296

>>
>>81939994

I never got why people on this board hates it so much

It's amazingly paced with a great story and a great score, plus amazing visuals. I really can't watch it without getting inspired. One of the only times I actually agreed with the best picture award

Technically he's a contrarian who sucks massive, soft, and plentiful logs out of John Goodman's ass.
>>
a lot of movies pre 1970 didnt get reviewed on MT you fucking tomatoes tard
>>
>>81940487

Way to miss the point there buddy
>>
>>81940487
Even if this was supposed to be a list of the greatest films since 1970 it would be horrendous also you're wrong lol
>>
>>81939994
How can anyone take a underage retard that pays attention to what a meme site such as Memeacritic has to say about cinema seriously?
>>
>>81939994
>half the list was made in the last 5 years
>>
>>81939994
>2. Boyhood
>4. Moonlight
>5. Literally What
JUST
>>
>>81940784

Metacritic doesn't "say" anything you fucking moron, they just aggregates the critics' ratings
>>
Why are they wrong?
>>
>>81940179
>All that effort

It was one week of filming per year. People act like they followed Boyhood around with cameras for his whole childhood.
>>
>>81940075

Haven't seen the movie (and probably won't), but James Baldwin was fucking based.
>>
>>81941154

doing what they did took more effort than to do it the normal way, this is not debatable
>>
>>81941095
aggregating the "reviews" of retards that pose as some credible film critics is exactly what i meant when i said that memeacritics ratings shouldnt be taken seriously by anyone with a fully functioning brain, which rules out failed abortions such as yourself
>>
>>81939994
>straight white boy story ranked above gay black boy story
