The only funny part so far is when the dad told his son he’s re-tar-ded

bro posting on his phone in the theater itt

This s*** was f***ing stupid

damn man even the end didn’t do it for you?

No. But I will say a dope movie could’ve been made out of this if you removed the 2020 satire, none of that s*** worked and I was severely bored the first half. And then also the Emma Stone/Austin Butler side plot didn’t land for me.

If this was more so Pedro vs Joaquin for mayor and they turned to the 2nd half earlier it’s be a lot better

What was even the point of this? Was Ari trying to say that white people was annoying in 2020? Cus he portrayed all the characters at extreme levels of annoyance especially the BLM s***

You produce bro? I notice you always seem pretty interested in scores

Yes

A bunch of cringe white teens yelling “BLM” in a black cops face

had a good time with this one, like 30 minutes too long tho ngl

this is why i said earlier that if you’d give this to cord jefferson this would be a instant classic, cause cord would’ve done the whole satirizing performative white liberals thing a lot better

1000% Ari took this s*** to the extreme and made it too on the nose

“Eddington” is about a couple (Lindsay and Marc) driving through New Mexico, on their way to Los Angeles, who run out of gas just outside of small town Eddington, New Mexico. Lindsay and Marc decide to enter the town for help. They are, at first, greeted very warmly, but, as nightfall comes, the picturesque setting soon turns into a nightmare.

I wonder if this was the first draft Ari wrote in 2019?

Like what we even talking about

Highly doubt that honestly

American fiction was like a slightly elevated version of a 2000s black movie like brown sugar or something, s*** was hard tho

No hate, movie was dope, but I can't see that creator going for something like this. Let alone stylized in this manner

On your phone in the theatre

No

This was so ass

Loved it

Seeing all the discourse around the film’s messaging when I thought it sucked from a pure filmmaking standpoint

Movie was so trash he had to tell somebody asap

Make a better movie then

Deadass lmao niggas crying about being on the phone while pure garbage is on the screen

45 min and these niggas was still debating over mask
