The Great Debate...
>>216537850The Deer Hunter, next question.
>>216537850apocalypse now is one of the greatest movies ever made, deer hunter is not even the best vietnam movie. that said, it's a very good drama.
>>216537850The Deer Hunter was a disappointment and kind of shitty. Apocalypse Now holds up rather well
>>216537850Apocalypse Now is the better performance-giver/spectacle, ie better movie, Deer Hunter is the more heavy-hitter/poignant/deep of the two, ie better film.
>>216537917There's nothing deep about Russian roulette its just shitting writing and unrealistic
>>216537957Focusing on the RR just tells me you missed the point entirely. The clue is in the name of the movie, the most meaningful scene is very brief but very related.
>>216537980Nigger I watched what I watched if something real deep and cool and poignant went over my head then it was executed poorly ie shitty writing
>>216537850Apocalypse Now > Full Metal Jacket > Deer Hunter > Platoon
>>216538030You're impervious to nuance more like. Stick to Apocalypse Now with the characters telling you outright their motivations.
>>216537850Deer hunter is boring and the only memorable scene is the Diddy mao one
>>216537850>insert plebbit comment[wow the wedding scene is sooooo long lol haha lol lmao wedding scene haha lol lol wedding - wow it's long wow someone told me that it was long so I think it's long!]>default fuckwit comment ascribed
Apocalypse Now is a Vietnam movie. Deer Hunter is a movie about the effect that the Vietnam war had upon the inhabitants of a tight-knit small American town. They’re both excellent films in their own right.
>>216538103Ha you talk about nuance when walkens performance was the most wooden acting I've seen in such a highly regarded movie, he really has no business being a lead in any movie
>>216538146Everything leading up to them going to Vietnam is quite nice, everything after kind of falls apart in believability
>>216537850Deer Hunter bored the shit out of me, and I'm not someone who gets bored easily I sat through Barry Lyndon, Dances With Wolves, Once Upon A Time In America, etc... just fine
>>216537850Deer Hunter sucked.
