Just saw this. What did I think of it, /tv/?
mistitled and underwhelming movie that isnt even charged with its politcal messaging, Penn was mildly good but the rest of the cast (besides del toro) was completely forgettable
>>217116729Idk but I remember I felt way too smart for the book back when I read it when I was 12 years old. I can’t imagine any movie based on some hippy burnout’s power fantasy
its a great chase film. if it didnt have a black woman in it /tv/ would be all over it
You fell in love with Chase Infiniti, and thought PTA put out another excellent film.
I thought it was disappointing. Only was compelling in the third act and it felt like it ended right when it was getting interesting
>>217117550LoL.Keep trying.Nobody falls in love with half nigger bitches.
I bet people will think twice about wearing Van Halen shirts at protests now kek
>>217116729Complex multi layered reflection of the absurdity of social politics. Chuds hated it because they’re have no sense of humor.
>>217117999Nobody will ever love you
>>217119426Ah, I was wondering when the Commiefornian would chime in.
>>217117550I could do her hair
>>217116729Oscar bait. PTG's worst.
It was great but will sadly forever be disliked by /tv/ that sorely misinterpret it as a mere political piece.
>>2171167293 stars
>>217116729It’s why I don’t watch movies anymore. Every single movie has to have the creators’ political opinions baked in somehow somewhere
8/10, they captured current political feeling perfectly, much better than Civil War or Long Walk or whatever else came out recently. Bonus points for typical Thomas Pynchon jokes like funny acronyms. The only thing I don't like is the title and how not all of the Christmas Adventurers were hypocrites about interracial relationships unlike the actual GOP elite in USA (mostly because they were weird incels who could not score a white stacy before they became rich and powerful). But they hinted it was more about lying at the application than the actual race mixing so it is ok.
>>217116729you thought the last 30 minutes could have been cut entirely if it weren't for this line in this one scene
>>217117527Its really not and I have no problem with nogs in most films where it doesnt bastardize history or logic. Penn and Benicio were the only decent performances and I usually like Leo. The whole film felt like a great big nothing
>>217120730The way literally everything is an inversion of reality tells me there might be an actual message there but nothing about the movie gives me any reason to try to decipher it.
>>217120730You posted one of the coolest sequences and it led to nothing. He didn't even go do anything like that
>>217120939Not everything needs to be sanitized apolitical slop either. This comes with the territory of auteur made films. It's all a matter of execution, not of beliefs.
>>217116729turned it off after the super ugly negress kissed Leo in the mouth, disgusting as fuck. But there were 2 major fuck ups: 1. They started bombing everything and no one caught them QUICKLY, which would have been impossible with security cameras existing since the 70s and the ugliest negress on earth, being pregnant and firing an AK-47, utterly retarded. I know is a comedy but it was recorded as a serious movie, gigantic shit fuck of a badly written dogshit movie.Also, weapons was awfully written too, how come the grandkid was able to perform black magic that quickly? Are you guys stupid or retarded? Maybe both? Why are you praising such a dogshit movie too?Weapons also had another badly written element I can't remember right now, Dogshit Hollywood, they used to be better.
>>217121177>I know is a comedy but it was recorded as a serious movie,If you say so
>>217120730>misinterpretThe end of the movie is basically "go join antifa". Its politics dwarf everything else so it's normal it's called a political piece.
I hated it for the first 30-40 minutes, then i ended up liking it overall
>>217117550I would fucking destroy her body through sex obviously but I don't want to see her as an actress, movies and tv shows should be pleasant 90% of the time and Hollywood is currently giving us, subpar looking actresses. What happened to the kind of sexy as fuck negresses they put in movies in the 90s? They don't exist anymore? Why not negresses like those instead of someone like lets say, Zendaya? Zendaya makes me depressed.
>>217121200that makes it even worse anon. If you want to make a comedy, color grade your shit with lively, correct, colors.
>>217121205>The end of the movie is basically "go join antifa".That's not how I saw it. I think the message was whatever political shit you're doing, violence will come back to bite you in the ass.
>>217121276Why? The movie looked great. One of the best looking ones I've seen in years actually.
>>217119647I live in Wyoming fucking retard.I’m a liberal pot smoking, porn watching veteran that can outshoot your ass any day. If I ever meet you I’m gonna shove a loaded stick of dynamite right up your asshole!
>>217121296idiot, it looks great, if it was a serious movie and not a badly written comedy with a disgusting negress as Leo's boyfriend.
>>217121349Alright if you say so. Maybe they should've added a laugh track too.
I enjoyed it, but it feels like it's satirizing the same people it portrays as the heroes
>>217116729A masterpiece that has finally convinced you to finally chop your cock off
>>217121480>>217121412it's a pynchon story. the best we have gotten since inherent vice and the retirement of coen brothers. if the humor goes over your head, its a skill issue
>>217121480You must be new to cynical subversive literature.
>>217121480>but it feels like it's satirizing the same people it portrays as the heroesIt's not just a feeling. It's the truth. It mocks the shit out of the French 75 too. They were just some splintered idealists that got betrayed by a thrill seeker, who is likely to be attracted to such a group.
>>217121697>cocksucker who loves geting pegged
Chuds BTFO
>>217116729>mmm, sweet thang
>>217121305>lives in white ass wyoming>still dick sucks the party that wants immigrants and nogs to replace him asap>whilst living in a place that id nice because its majority white
>>217121757>literally Thinking With Your Dick the character
>>217122042Wyoming isn’t nice it’s a complete shit hole. There’s a reason it’s the least populated state
>>217122042I’m a libertarian moron, like most people hiding in the mountains in Wyoming. I thought you took AP Common Sense. Come talk that shit to my face and you’ll find yourself covered in honey and tied to a tree on powder river pass.
>>217121205>>217121278>>217121697The main political message of the film is that performative political movements are utterly meaningless if they cause you to neglect your close friends and family That's why Benecio is in the film; He respects the French 75 for what they're trying to do, but instead of blowing up powerlines in the desert he's built a community around himself, and that community is way more useful as a "resistance" than anyone else in the film, compared to the French 75 or the NunsAnd that's why the mother is one of the main villains, because she betrays her friends and abandons her familyAnd that's why Leo lets his daughter off her leash in the endAnd that's why the main villain is literally trying to kill his daughterIt's not that complicated
Left wing characters portrayed as redeemable while right wing characters portrayed as disgusting irredeemable scum.
>>217122211>the power base is actually just fruity old insecure white preppies that will eat their own at the drop of a hat.Fixed that for ya.
>>217116729You're thinking why isn't Bob and the daughter in hiding and not back at the same fucking house the military just raided two days prior. Also why Bob has a cellphone after the whole movie about being paranoid about them tracing it.
The soundtrack is super distracting.
If you're a leftie libtard, you thought it was the greatest film of the decade. If you're a normal person, you thought it was just okay.
You realized Teyana Taylor has a fucked up face
>>217116729Anyone enjoying and supporting this film is a radical political leftist terrorist sympathizer and must be reported to the federal authorities immediately.
>>217116729do they really have white power militias in northern california?
>>217116729It is this picture in movie form, made to lose 100M dollars, because nobody buys this shit anymore.
is it america's answer to this splatter action fest from finland?
>>217119559I am married for 20 years. Nobody cares about your communist propaganda full of 3/10 nogs, hasbeens and glowniggers.
>>217122416Now THAT'S some proper social commentary>slaughter nazis>slaughter socialistsSimple as.
>>217122447Apparently you care.
>>217122342Because the only person actually looking for them was Lockjaw and he’s dead. Bob realized that the heat was off and the Christmas Club was a joke.
>>217122643>Apparently you careOne Soros Shill After Another lost hundreds of millions of dollars so apparently I don't lmao
>>217122684>cult classics live forever How much has Melanias documentary made?
>>217122732>Soroslop will be a cult classic in ten years you fucking chud
>>217116812This. It had some decent scenes, which were all led by either Del Toro or Penn, but the film felt like it lacked any real achievement at the end. Sure, Penn was no longer a threat, but like the title implies the battle never ends as the daughter is now the one who picks up where her mom ended things. You'd think Bob's character would have wanted a better future for his daughter after having to deal with Perfidia and having to raise her on his own because she basically started losing her morality along the way (considering her pussy just another weapon, killing a man) and fo what? It all seemed very senseless at the end.
>>217122792>It all seemed very senseless at the end.So did Boogie Nights and Inherent Vice.It’s about storytelling, not conclusions.
>>217122447You care, it's why you get so angry every time you see a pretty girl. Reminds you that you're stuck with your ugly faggot white tranny wife.
>>217122682He doesn't know that. Plus all the other members were just arrested at the church so now they have more info than ever.
Best scene
>>217122933Mama Bitch Nun don’t rat!
>>217123250Ghetto Pat wasn’t stupid. He had a moment of clarity there and realized his kid may not be his.
>>217116729Getting tired of the leftist power fantasy, but it didn't ruin the movie.
>>217124204You mean the right weakness reality.
>>217124490>right weakness reality.>men can be women
>>217121480That is because it isAll the leftist achieve is sitting around smoking weed talking about the literature, while attracting thugs who take advantage of them
>>217124577Say it to his face.
>>217124647Why do so many special ops guys turn into tranny faggots?
>>217124619> while attracting thugs who take advantage of them
>>217124664Because it’s gay as fuck.
>>217124664deep down they know they aren't as tough as they like to pretend
>>217116729Pynch
>>217124664Because the military segments these guys during training and initiation. They weed out the closet faggots that like to dominate other men and then teach them basic weapons and swimming, whatever. These guys get boners thinking about showering with other sweaty dudes.At least smelly hippies get laid with big titty subversive daddy issues chicks.
>>217121177>I know is a comedy butI guess I didn't catch that part. I saw nothing comedy related in the movie other than the director trying his best to make a militant nigger bitch into something sexy.
>>217124676Bernie can STILL win and then everything will be for Free!
>>217125145
…Goddamnit /tv/! VIVA LA REVOLUCION!!!!! 0/
>>217123250>Best sceneThere were no best scenes.
>>217125145I haven’t voted since Ross Perot.It’s all fruitless and owned by corporations.
>>217116729You thought it was a fun, well filmed, nicely edited etc. movie.Hopefully you also realized that it is a bit overrated.
>>217125904Compared to what? Wicked?
>>217121305>outshoot your ass any daybet you were in a navy, faggot
>>217120939If is right wing, it will be just propaganda slop
>>217126401You think a lot about faggots, huh Cletus?
>>217122447gay marriages don’t count, fag
>>217116729Fun, not a masterpiece, interesting music felt like silent cinema, a decent watch, probably won't see again.
>>217122361im a leftist and was dissapointed by lack of leftist politics. Just buzzwords. Ok film but eddington is way better
>>217116729You love black girls, you LOVE EM.
>>217121305you live in India
>>217126533Come to Wyoming and say it to my face.
>>217116729It wasn't far-left enough, I say. I wanted to see the unsimulated castration of Leonardo Dicaprio.
>>217126575there is no Wyoming, India
>>217126575Is Wyoming the name of your village? Do they have toilets yet?
>>217124577Yes transgender woman is assigned male at birth. Did you just find that out? So normally you would refer to anyone as a woman in the real world if they look like a woman. Tranny is a slur. Also all would have been able to pass without effort if there would not be neglect and ostracizing of trans rights.
>>217126582Bob ruled. He had better opsec than the baddies, taught his daughter trigger control, took the high ground for a sniper shot, and came out alive.
>>217126669>>217126676You’re clearly mad.
>>217123250penn is so jewish
