    Just watched this after seeing the thread earlier today, so good

    cool, glad you listened haha. I’m rewatching it currently. that f***ing dinner scene man. I can relate so heavily of being on the verge of success, having achievements and then self destructing in some way- like I know I’m doing this s*** to myself

    don’t knock that s***, it’s a serious problem for a lot of people. it’s that feeling when you realize you really aren’t a kid anymore and you haven’t lived up to what you imagined earlier in your life, or you haven’t lived up to expectations yet. you just feel like you haven’t done s*** and are panicking about how you’re gonna catch up. a lot of times you’re always comparing yourself to peers and feeling envious and depressed.

    its also the panicked feeling that your life is starting to fly by, you realize you’re about to be 30 when you feel like you were a kid just a few years ago. it’s the name of the anxiety you feel becoming a real adult.

    this s*** is very real man and it silently eats away at a ton of people who don’t address that s*** with themselves. it’s a major factor in a lot of depression and suicide

    I spent most of it drunk

    100%.

    Also, crazy you picked out that line lol. I literally sampled that the other day for something I'm working on. That line and his delivery hits like a ton of bricks.

    Yeah it’s always stuck out to me as one of most powerful lines I’ve heard in any movie. It’s so simple but hits me so hard because sadly it’s relatable. The cohens must go through depression themselves because there’s no way you write a movie like this and not ever experience it

    Watched it with my girl and she didn’t really get it at first, but once we started discussing it, the movie hit her hard

    watch The Raid 2. literally the greatest action movie ever made, the fight scenes are the best ever. it will get you amped up, like there’s no doubt. it’s what brought us John Wick, Daredevil, etc.

    it’s full of 10/10 fight scenes, where the main dude fights a lot of people at once, but this one is considered by a ton of people as the best fight scene ever filmed. if you’ve never seen it, stick with it. at first they’re just sparing, but it gets brutal as f*** by the end. just two guys going f***ing savage:

    I don’t really know why I’m telling you all this, but enjoy lol

    Found this awesome letterboxd list for movies with that feeling

    https://boxd.it/2cApa

    Llewyn and Synecdoche are on there and soo many others coded by colour. Been going through the list and found a lot of gems

    good list man. thanks for sharing that link. also pretty cool you’re European (going by the way you spelled color). idk why but I always feel it’s cool to just talk to other people from around the world. it’s one of those futuristic things we don’t ever think about and take for granted. I’m from/live in Louisiana lol, always feel like it’s an exotic state for non-americans

    sorry man I’m just trying to think of the little things ya know

    the ending is genius. it’s the exact same thing as the beginning, so he’s stuck in a sorta time loop that he can break if he changes his ways, but he won’t because he’s stubborn. it’s like a snake eating it’s own tail. you feel me?

    Good movie, not my fav from them but good

    Bruno Delbonnel has a really noticeable style of cinematography that elevates the movie’s feelings of depression
