Oh I'm sorry, Did I Break Your Conversation........Well Allow Me A Movie Thread by S&T

oh man… people are gonna HATE joker 2 :lol:

I wasn't a fan of the first one so I came to this with lowered expectations, I thought it was fine. It was shot and sounded beautifully but its worst offenses is that it's a bit of a slog and the script is borderline barren..

I admired its ambition more than the first even though it didn't fully stick the landing

This thing is definitely gonna get ripped to shreds by GA

A woman in search of her missing sister uncovers a Satanic cult in New York's Greenwich Village and finds that they could have something to do with her sibling's random disappearance.
 
“The Facebook is cool. That’s what it’s got going for it. *yeah* You don’t want to ruin it with ads because, ads aren’t cool. *exactly* It’s like you’re throwing the greatest party on campus and someone’s saying “it’s gotta be over by eleven.” *that’s exactly right* You don’t even know what the thing is yet. *that’s exactly right* How big it can get. How far it can go. This is no time to take your chips down. A million dollars isn’t cool. You what’s cool?”
 
So......I am buried at my desk at work, and decided to search thru The Rewatchables for anything I might have missed over the years, and I found Casino.

Listening now, and man.......such a unique experience that I watched Casino BEFORE I ever saw Goodfellas. And apparently, that changes my entire perception of the film compared to everyone else.

I LOVED Casino. I mean LOVED that movie. I saw it in theaters with my future sister in law. She kept mentioning Goodfellas, I had no idea what the hell she was talkin about. :lol I was a damn kid, I didn't know what Goodfellas was. So TO ME, I almost feel like I like Casino more, probably because I saw it first, and the rest of the world is the other way. (And I love Goodfellas, when I did finally watch it, I loved it just fine.)

I'm only five minutes in and all of these guys were frustrated that it wasn't directly tied to Goodfellas, or that it was "different" etc, even tho they say it was the same.
