The big fat movie thread

This thing looks worse with every new trailer:
Tbh I'm kinda interested. Though I'm more interested in a Batfleck directed Batfleck they announced.
Can't say what I know but unless they changed a lot it will be slower and more artistic than Birdman. The fact that they are copying the visual style of some Malick movies (the same cinematographer) should be a good hint.
It may be. Leo says very little in the movie
for shits and giggles i saw MI5 on imax today......guess what trailer was attached....it was glorious on a imax screen.
also a different bond trailer was shown....pfa trailer.
fuck yes.

Isn't this just Reservoir Dogs, but in the old west?
probably.
pulp fiction came on the other night.....still laugh like a little school girl watching it.
The book was amazing.
Shut up and take my money!
Supposedly it's amazing.
As for good movies have any of you monkeys seen Sicario or Youth? My top5 movies this year. Dope was also really good.
Dope is on VOD I think (and other "services")
Youth is a new movie from Paolo Sorrentino. With Michael Caine, Harvey Keitel and a few others. Seen it in Cannes and it is amazing
Saw Crimson Peak in the theater. Not great but not dismal. Enjoyable. Pleasant to look at.
Watched Hysterical from 1982/3 featuring The Hudson Brothers. Great drinking game: every time you catch a reference to another movie, take a shot. Good luck finding a copy.

That looks hysterical. I hope Russel Crowe put on all that weight for the role. Yikes.
Potential bong shed material:
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Even with my expectations lowered to zero and my critical faculties reduced by a preemptive trip to the bong shed, Batman v Superman was a bigger turd than anticipated.
Even disregarding the questionable takes on the characters, the film fails at the most basic level of film making - the script is a jumbled mess, character motivations and actions make zero sense and the central conflict is so forced, the only thing more laughable is its resolution. Meanwhile, Zack Snyder is slowly turning into the next Michael Bay: completely tone deaf, throwing any shot that looks cool by itself or that can be lifted directly from a comic book page at the screen, irrespective of context and what it might mean.
At least Affleck was very good as Batman in spite of the awful script, since he is going to be directing himself in the next Batman film, this one might actually be worthwhile.

You can see him mentally go through all the times he asked Zack Snyder and his wife to explain to him what the hell is going on in this film. Poor guy must have known all along he was working on a piece of junk.
What?
Lolwut?
Perhaps he will die in the end. Or the beginning.
I would totally watch a Indiana Jones movie about a grown up Short-round.
