Rageaholic Monkey posted:Same I can't wait until it comes out, it looks like a more competent Hardcore Henry. Here's a question referencing the OP, shithead musciians during the trailer process. How bad are they? I'm curious since I play music (as a side thing) and know people trying, vainly, to make a living off it. Getting your music on TV and movies seems like a godsend. You don't end up making that much money? How bad do they get with assheadedness?

A24 has a nearly flawless track record, but this doesn't look up to their standards. It looks instantly forgettable, which is usually the last thing I'd expect to say about an A24 movie.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:I went to an Alamo Drafthouse in Houston (or maybe it was Katy...somewhere around Houston, at least) in December because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. I guess from various things I'd heard, I had it built up in my head as the ultimate theater experience. But honestly it wasn't anything special. It didn't have reclining seats, there didn't seem to be anything notable about the screen over other theaters, their system for ordering food was loving archaic, etc. I wasn't impressed at all. I've been to at least a handful of theaters not named Alamo Drafthouse that impressed me way more. Alamo is kinda mediocre compared to other theaters doing reserved seating and the like. They might have started the trend, I dunno.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:there's increased demand for Asian-Americans in Hollywood in the past few years. Awkwafina is Asian-American and a semi-recognizable name (and one of like a single-digit number of actors/actresses who fit those categories and are also young-ish), so she's getting a lot more work. it's pretty much that simple. She's funny in Neighbors 2. Which is a pretty funny movie altogether.

I dunno, the music parts were aces and that's 80% of it for me.

The only weird thing was that I can buy Paul Dano as Brian Wilson or John Cusack as Brian Wilson, but it's weird with both in the same movie. That dissonance worked for I'm Not There the problem with that movie tho I just wanted to stick with Cate Blanchett's version of the character.

Catching up with the thread after a few weeks away and that beat maker movie set in Chicago with Anthony Anderson looks amazing to me. Hustle and Flow, 8 Mile, Patti Cakes, why is it that rappers trying to make it movies are so much better than their equivalent rockstar movies? Focusing on one character? The blue collar/lower class struggle? Seeing the characters actually make the music? Skipping the boring rockstar cliches? My fav rappers still vent about their problems, maybe thats just a better source for this stuff. And speaking of rappers, that Awkwinna trailer actually made me tear up. Never thought Id say that.

Sir Kodiak posted:I'd put Almost Famous and Purple Rain up there with those movies. This Is Spinal Tap and Walk Hard as well, if we're counting comedies. Though I do think you identify some advantages that rapper-focused movies can have. All good movies. Tho Id say that parodies is kinda cheating, like I cant think of any rapper coming up parodies that are any good. Almost Famous is interesting because it is from the outside view of the kid journalist. Sort of like how Velvet Goldmine works based on the outside view of its main protaganist. Once you take the sincerity out of rap it crumbles. But maybe rock has more space for that kinda angle.

loooooooooool The sun was intensifying above Gaghan’s deck. The director is an unlikely picture of domestic repose these days.. His is a house where a volume of “My Struggle” sits next to a child’s sink kick-stand.
