The Official Movie Thread

It was on my radar the whole time but I couldn't track it down then so I just backburner'd it. I'm surprised it went so seemingly unnoticed myself, you should definitely check it out man.

Haven't done a trailer bomb in ages:



Not a trailer, just a slideshow of the recent official image leaks. Apparently it will be 2 films in total.



Another oddball/quirkster black comedy, this time the directorial debut of this goon Clark Duke who I've never seen in a lead role ever but in the background of a bunch of shit (Kick-Ass, Superbad, The Office...):

I like Eric Andre so this looks great to me lmao.



Tom Hardy as Al Capone during his last years, looks kinda hammy but Hardy is usually pretty cool.



Slovakian film about two students in totalitarian Czechoslovakia.



Josephine Decker's new one with Elisabeth Moss playing real life writer Shirley Jackson.



Crowe just got his own Falling Down, but on steroids by the looks of it.
 
an eric andre movie? fuck yeah

Minnie and Moskowitz - My second John Cassavetes (I think) and it ruled. I love his raw and loose style, the disregard for structure and his choice of actors are awesome. Cassel rules! Also I'm starting to think the Safdie brothers owe a lot of their style to the man, especially with regards to their first two features.

<3

make sure you watch the one from '84!

Watched The Irishman last night and thought it was meh. The acting was rather subpar(especially from the main guys), except for Stephen Graham who was solid. It seemed like a movie made with a bunch of dialed in performances from tired old dudes, especially from Deniro. Ray Romano was fucking horrible and the reason he was there is because hes buddy buddy with martin and a few of those dudes. Movie felt more like a reunion that was just a bunch of guys trying to pat each other on the back and get by on star power. Just didnt feel right to me.

Funniest part was when
Al Pacino almost went full "hoo-ha" when he got shot in the head. I just coudlnt stop laughing.

Probably not gonna make my list.

6/10

Martin Scorsese Teases DiCaprio-De Niro Crime Film ‘Flower Moon’ as His First Western.
Martin Scorsese’s frequent cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto said last December the tone of their next collaboration together, “Killers of the Flower Moon,” was still being worked out. Now comes word from Scorsese himself that the tone has been set and the project, based on David Grann’s historical book of the same name, will be the director’s first Western. “Killers of the Flower Moon” is Scorsese’s follow-up to “The Irishman,” which nabbed 10 Academy Award nominations this year. The project is set to star longtime Scorsese muses Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro.

“We think it’s a Western,” Scorsese tells Premiere of the film. “It happened in 1921-1922 in Oklahoma. There are certainly cowboys, but they have cars and also horses. The film is mainly about the Osage, an Indian tribe that was given horrible territory, which they loved because they said to themselves that Whites would never be interested in it. Then we discovered oil there and, for about ten years, the Osage became the richest people in the world, per capita. Then, as with the Yukon and the Colorado mining regions, the vultures disembark, the White man, the European arrives, and all was lost. There, the underworld had such control over everything that you were more likely to go to jail for killing a dog than for killing an Indian.”
 
liked this. A bit sombered by the ending though.

Yeah i liked it alot, pretty fucking cool movie. I guess the ending was to remind us it's a horror movie. I'll investigate the Korean movie.

@CiG , any idea what year this was released? I see things that say 2018, and other things that say 2019. Would add to my 2019 list if the that's the correct year.
