PBS Newshour posted:Drive is something I felt I should like watching it and enjoy a lot of parts of, but afterwards I was like yeah this movie does nothing for me. I mean, I'm glad it was influential for a lot of creative people but, yeah, "this movie does nothing for me" was pretty much my take.

I still can't reconcile that it was the same man in Ex Machina and Force Awakens filmed in the same year. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 03:49 on Apr 17, 2016 |

I haven't seen them for a while. I remember liking the first a lot and the third a lot. The second dragged a little bit.

Why the gently caress are we talking about Only God Forgives (which is cool) when we could be making fun of Kevin Spacey and Jennifer Garner for starring in a movie about a talking cat? Jesus gently caress Spacey, what happened?Death By The Blues posted:Yea he is a deeply broken and misadjusted person. Which is why I want to see a Refn Superman A bunch of people are really upset that the most recent Superman movie has him feeling mildly conflicted, if they let Ryan Gosling play Superman in a NWR picture I think they'd poo poo their entire heads out of their asses. Or, you know, think it's awesome and miss the point entirely.

Humbug Scoolbus posted:I didn't like Drive. I really wanted to, but somehow it didn't work for me and I hated Only God Forgives. I'm still going to see Neon Demon because there has to be something in Refn's direction that makes people go crazy for his stuff. They like flashy lights and pretty colours backed with a good soundtrack.

The Pusher trilogy doesn't really have them, but if you want to watch desperate criminals gently caress up they're good movies imo. Valhalla rising hasn't been mentioned yet, thats good as well.

TheFallenEvincar posted:Is the whole trilogy worth checking out? They're the only Refn movies I've never seen (holy poo poo I had no idea Fear X was Hubert Selby Jr and Refn working together, RIP) They are all very different and good movies but you likely won't have fun watching them. They have the Refn spirit but not the technical mastery. The first Pusher is probably the most conventionally '"enjoyable" movie, the second one is a fantastically acted drama and the third one is  .

Valhalla rising hasn't been mentioned yet, thats good as well. I 've liked Bronson the most out of his stuff. I have the same feeling toward Refn as I do over the Coens. They are fantastic filmmakers, but I just can't connect with their movies somehow. Still I keep trying because I must be missing something? With the Coens at least I've liked Raising Arizona, True Grit, and Hail Ceasar. With Refn, just Bronson so far. I'll probably see Neon Demon, but I have no idea whether I'll be pissed at myself afterwards (like after Only God Forgives).

My favourite Refn movie is Valhalla Rising, it is just nuts and, again, Mikkelsen is excellent.

Google tells me Tribeca Grill is a NYC restaurant, was there some controversy around it? Besides the regular drama about trying to open a restaurant in NYC.

Drive is one of the few movies where the soundtrack made me jump up when watching and check the music out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV_3Dpw-BRY Also the movie kicks so much rear end.

This is it, kids movies are easy money and they make loving bank most the time. Zootopia is the highest grossing film of the year at $890 million worldwide.

I don't think it really makes sense to compare the potential box office of a major Disney movie with a A Talking Cat?!? 2.
