Boomer narcissism ruined Hollywood
>>216001891>cannons firing at the pyramids>cannons firing at frozen lakes of austerlitzi knew from the first trailer it would be slop and that made me sad
It's almost like he's throwing away his legacy on purpose
>>216001891It's a high school drop out production
That was the least of the movie's problems.>Phoenix isn't just old, but gives a completely anemic performance (I blame Ridley, Phoenix is usually very good)>obvious bong resentment and seething oozing through the screen, trying way too hard to humiliate Napoleon as a character, the fucking femenist nonsense with his wife >the film is incredibly ugly, got a grey and blue filter all over it, unremarkable, sometimes TV-tier cinematography, shitty CGI backdrops
>>216001891>Were you there? How do you know a 30 year old Napoleon didn't look like a 50 year old Joaquin Phoenix? Paintings aren't proof, as the artist could've been forced to make him look youthful or been sent to the guillotine.
>>216001978>but gives a completely anemic performancethat was how napoeleon was in real life
>Napoleon is now an autistic sperg, a rutting pig for his wife and a retard who whines about boats.Ridley Scott is senile.
Why not do it as a TV series? Everything from his rise and meeting Josephine up through Waterloo is an insane amount of ground to cover in a single film.
I personally hate biopics that cover a long time frame rather than an individual moment, it just feels like a speed run of things with nothing interesting to say.
>the most charismatic leader of his entire generation was ackshually an autistic, grumpy retard with negative social skills and the real power behind him was his unfaithful wifealright Ridley
>>216001978pacing is also a major issue. Things that took actual decades happen in 2 minutes. So it gets very confusing on whats happening.They show the continental system and then like 5 minutes later its already fallen apart and hes invading russia
>>216001906Same, never even considered watching it after that.
>>216002146>be having a nice day>someone posts a pic of that coal burnergross
no good material can be made about napeoleon because his choice of woman in life was awful
you think you're so great because you have BOATS
>>216001891>Were you there? No? You just made a career out of studying that historical period and verifying stories for accuracy? >n-no, i wasn't there either>y-yeah well I make movies so s-shut the fuck upImagine being this asshurt over people calling you a hack.
>>216002536i genuinely cannot fucking believe this was filmed and put in a movie
here's ur based napoleon zoomie
>>216002536I'm not saying that we need history autists to make historical movies but the fact that people making historical movies have the most thin veneer of historical knowledge is a fucking problem.
Scott is salting the earth for the historical movie genre with all of these shitty flops
>>216002580>americans have been getting consistently gayer for 80 yearsFascinating.
>>216002804history is gay and retarded anyways, we're in a new era of history unlike any beforeeverything before the 90s may as well have happened to a completely different species
>>216002557Ridley has been delusional and deranged since the 1980s.
>>216002864>everything before the 90s may as well have happened to a completely different speciesthis made me profoundly sad to think about
>>216002959Well everything between the 20s or so and the 90s, that may have happened to a different species than anyone before.
>>216001891Ridley Scott is not a boomer, he was born in the 1930s
