wut
is DDL the most based method actor of all time?
>>84115637
PTA and him will give us one final kino though. That's all that matters
>turning his back on PTA
doubts.
this is fake news
MILK WILL BE FINE
hasn't he done this before and then came back? he hasn't done anything worth a damn in 10 years anyway
>>84115637
WHAT A FAGGOT. FUCK YOU DDL YOU FUCKING TRAITOR. YOU WERE THE ONLY GOOD ACTOR LEFT. FUCK YOU FUCKO YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCKYOU FUCKYOU
good, better to retire with your reputation intact than to an de niro
>>84115690
if you checked the link you would see that the filming of that movie is done and he will still promote it
>>84115637
PR for getting another oscar till his return for acting again.
Phantom thread trailer when?
scientology
>>84115714
>TWBB came out 10 years ago
>>84115637
He's meme actor anyway.
ddl ded
His son coming out as a rapper broke him, poor guy
>>84115637
I'd say he quit because of his wife and/or kids. They got tired of him coming home as his characters. Or not coming home at all living in a prison for a role. He went to extremes to get into character. That's gotta take a toll on personal life. He's fucking great. A master wood worker aswell. Live long old chap!
>>84115855
Hey now, he's an artist too!
>>84115637
The era of movie stars is over.
Is it, dare I say it, the end of Days?
>>84115637
Good. I've gotten tired of that meme overacting ham.
>>84115736
DDL did one movie every 5 years or so and was very selective, he was never at risk of pulling a De Niro.
There Will Be Blood is his only good film.
Is this his GOAT performance?
NONONONONONONO
>>84116205
possibly, too bad Nardo brings the whole movie down
>>84115637
i saw this coming a long time ago. i'm suprised as hell he's doing phantom thread.
Why does he have to "announce" this?
Why can't he just slip out with dignity?
He must be going back to being a cobbler.
>>84116334
its a pr thing for award season to build hype
>>84116334
He didn't announce this. Some spokeswoman did
So the film with Paul Thomas Anderson coming out on Christmas will be his last film? Wow
>>84116179
>what is The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Sounds like you've seen only one if his films, being TWBB.
>>84116205
>Villains who did nothing wrong
>>84115892
maybe he should have been method acting as a good father all along?
>>84115637
This is all training for the role of an old retired actor called for one last movie that's somehow related to his past.
>>84115637
He knows that as soon as he does something new, given the climate of the day, tons of SJW and feminist shrills will shit all over him for being a white male method actor for some reaching reason or another, since those people hate true artists and are jealous of anyone with real talent.
>>84115688
>implying he's not quitting because PTA's a hack and he realizes how much time he wasted acting in hack flix
but thats morrissey
>>84116560
I'm fairly sure Daniel Day Lewis has better things to do than have the fears and insecurities of angry loners on the internet
>>84116560
then why is fassbender so admired? sjw blogs get miniscule readership and the only reason we keep reading about them here is because 4chan nerds deliberately trawl the weirdest corners of tumblr to fish them out. no-one cares.
someone being mean about you on a blog that 10 people read might be enough to make YOU quit your career, but to people who aren't total fucking losers it's water off a duck's back.
>>84116205
Daniel Plainview is the GOAT performance.
Bill was fantastic though. GoNY would have been pretty mediocre without him.
>>84115876
Or maybe he just wants to die in peace from whatever illness he has.
>>84116560
What's the image?
>>84116205
>people think this was his best performance
kys, it's literally the worst since the last of the mohicans
basically movies are shit now so what's the point in degrading yourself by being an actor
>>84117028
Sophie turners mag shoot.
Sophie Turner literally has the most dedicated fans
>>84116378
He probably thinks it's his best performance or something.
>PTAs latest movie was so intense it made him quit acting
>>84117219
or shitty
You dumb fucks.
His next role is playing a popular actor that quits acting.
Haven't you learned anything over the years about this overacting, talentless hack?
>>84115637
So how far did he take the method this time that made him quit acting ?
leave method acting to me
>>84117316
>Jared Leto ruined method acting for DDL
It all makes sense now
>>84116727
>why is fassbender so admired?
because he is a good goy
I mean clearly he will be back. I predict it'll be when he's really old, for a one-off final role.
>>84115637
he's dying. I'm not even joking, why would he retire even tough he has been very picky with his roles?
AIDS, alzheimers, parkinson's, you pick.
>>84117614
Unfortunately a strong chance for this.
What else has he got to prove? He's considered one of the best actors ever, why shouldn't he quit and do something else?
Method acting gave him diabetes.
>>84117460
i dont get it
He quit once before to become a "cobbler". Method.
DDL is the most overrated actor of all time desu.
>but muh method acting
Fuck off
>>84115637
Trump's fault
>>84115735
this meme needs to die
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gj635laKpY0
Underrated as fuck
>>84115637
>He is immenselygrateful
>willmake
Brilliant, Variety
>>84117341
it would break just about anyone senpai
>>84115637
Did he see his father's ghost again or what?
>>84116346
Mmmm, cobbler.
>>84118164
but thats dreadful
>>84116124
Why did De Niro do a De Niro? Does he need money or what?
>>84118883
I think so. There was something about it recently saying he did it to pay for shit for his wife.
>>84117754
celebrities who play to the script even when they are off camera are untouchable
>>84115637
who?
>>84117754
He BLANKS lots of colored women. This fits with /pol/'s agenda. Although given the ironic use of the word "goy", maybe it goes directly against it? I have no idea at this point.
>>84115637
Good, all of his movies are boring garbage
>>84116770
Gangs is legitimately a good movie like 80% for having him alone.
>>84118883
A lot of those actors stopped giving a fuck, it's not just De Niro. Pacino, Brando, Burt Reynolds, etc.
DDL already fucked up his legacy with Nine, which I still have no idea why he starred in because he had already established being autistically selective with the roles he takes for years before that. He even didn't want to do Lincoln at first, but Spielberg eventually convinced him to take the part. Which begs the question, why the fuck did he do Nine?
On a side note I'm always so confused when I read about what DDL is apparently like on set and how he goes into seclusion all of the time because in interviews and when he accepts awards he always comes off as super normal and really warm/friendly. Like you'd think he's this super intense guy but every interview with him is the opposite of that.

But why do anything when you have 100m in the bank? It seems they only do it for the money that they don't need.
>>84122026
>But why do anything when you have 100m in the bank?
Ambition, acclaim, attention, more fucking money
>>84115892
How did he manage to raise such a degenerate, or was the problem that he didn't?
is bale our best bet for method acting left?
fuck people who mention leto
>people not realizing he's just preparing for the role of a retired actor
>>84122026
But we've already established that they stopped giving a fuck.
>>84116124
He did 91/2 or whatever shit musical. His reputation was almost over and then the Lincoln meme performance brought him back from the edge for whatever reason. Hopefully the Phantom Jeans doesn't suck.
>>84121500
Because he has passion for acting, but is a regular guy otherwise. I see this a lot with C-level executives or start-up guys.
Fuck.First PSH dies and now this. My vote for best actor still working goes to Joaquin Phoenix. What about you, /tv/?
meh, he has a love hate relationship with acting and is always drained after filming. He'll be back for another oscar in a couple of years.
>>84115637
>tfw he'll never play morrissey
>>84119758
True, but he still tried.
>>84117099
I was surprised to know he was the fabio character in that movie
>>84122244
>>84115637
Didn't Joaquin Phoenix do the exact same thing and then came right back a couple years later when he realized money runs out?
>>84122622
No he was doing an le epic social experiment
>>84115892
>THIS IS A KILL.
>>84117460
>>84117754
he's just into oil drilling or a typical german cuck that overcompensates. we get it Fass you're not racist
>>84122622
no that was just a prank
>>84115637
As long as we still have Idris Elba, we'll be okay.
So Say We All
>>84122622
>>84122622
>tfw he turned into an edgy neckbeard
That shit was cringy as hell.
>>84122719
Oh yeah....what a terrible list of women...
>>84122719
>having such shit taste in women
Jesus Christ. If you're a right white guy and you're going to bang mudwomen at least bang the relatively attractive ones.
>>84122719
Alicia Vikander is 100% Swedish, she's just swarthy.
>>84122244
lmao
>>84122719
>Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander move in together
This saddens me
>>84116727
Yeah, SJW shit certainly hasn't infested basically every single major media outlet. Could you imagine if the New York Times or a major channel like CNN gave credence to this type of stuff?
Probably retiring so he can make a big comeback in five or six years. Wouldn't even be a blip in his portfolio anyway.
>>84121500

He's an autist who's really good at acting. Probably reserved most of the time but being an actor he can pull off normal and charming for a 30 min interview etc
>>84118190
Only tangentially related, has anyone else noticed that it seems like typos in major (online) magazines are near constant? Is this a result of the media cycle speeding out of control that editing is a thing of the past?
>>84122842
She's 50% Finnish, perkele
>>84115892
Imagine being the child of arguably two of the greatest actors of our time and ending up like that
>>84124299
For sure, I've noticed it everywhere.
>>84124769
Adjani was never a great actor, she's just a fuckable European.
>>84124909
99% of good female acting is being able to be sad and beautiful at the same time
>>84115892
No wonder he's retiring. I would've killed him and myself a long time ago.
>>84122244
topjej
>>84115892
He used to model.
Wth happened??
