Good movie but i wouldnt say its one of the best of the decade

dragon tattoo and gone girl are better

i'd say its between social network and fury road

I like gone girl more

classic trailer too

Cuz it aint

dragon tattoo might be his most underrated

it's one of the most fraudulent depictions of a public figure

It’s a movie fam. What you think was off?

This is never legitimate grounds to criticise a film.

zuck doesn't live up to that character, can't look at him the same after aoc ate his ass out lol

movie's still great

It’s a great movie but not one the best of the 10s when Birdman, parasite, whiplash, sorry to bother you, nomadland, sound of metal, honey boy, 40 year old version, uncut, moonlight, ash is purest white, burning, wolf Wall Street, Django, and many more all exist

Like she literally ate his booty?

This is a very blinkered view of what criticism is or should be. Birth of a Nation is criticized almost exclusively on the grounds that it distorts history for its vile agenda. Otherwise it's one of the most important films ever made. Historical accuracy is just another aspect of the discourse like any other.

Filmakers should never feel an obligation to tell a story wholly accurately imo. Fincher alone has 3 films that are widely innacurate - Social Network, Zodiac, Mank - yet that doesn't affect their inherent quality. Its of course fine to hold discourse over its historical accuracy, but that shouldn't be anywhere in the realm of consideration over whether something is a good or bad film.

There is no inherent quality. There is only our interpretation and estimation. The person you quoted didn't even make a positive or negative claim on the inaccuracy in question.

You're dismissing it as something that should even be acknowledged. As a counterpoint, Paul Greengrass's films are tediously accurate, and I find them to obfuscate everything that is interesting about the events he depicts.

I think there is definitely a conversation to be had about what Fincher and Sorkin's version of events does in relation to Facebook, the megacorporation, and Mark Zuckerburg, the billionaire public figure. I don't think anybody would argue that makes the film a failure. It is almost universally praised for good reason.

The real and the filmic which grapples with that reality are always relevant to one another.

In Sorkins masterclass he spoke on how him and Fincher disagreed on s***. Even small s*** like drinks, Sorkin wanted Mark to be drinking a screwdriver in the start of the film because he said it would visually look better. But Fincher said he had to drink beer because he didn’t wanna “lie” about the details cus Mark drank beer IRL when he typed that angry blog

lol

Yes easily f***ing world class in every aspect

not sure whats funny

I've slept on this movie because I remember the tv trailers made it look like a boring, paint by numbers "based on a true story" movie. I'm gonna give it a watch tomorrow

Just watched gone girl for the first time like an hour ago

Was zoikd

Classic
