Anyone else excited?
In theaters August 17th
Rottentomatoes page
Trailer on YouTube
So far:
-I've never read Don DeLillo's novel from 2003
-Pattinson is an odd choice
-Giamatti is always awesome
-glad to see Baruchel reaching out
-theme seems cool from the trailer
-mixed reviews from Cannes
-early reviews were very bad on RT but it has since rebounded and has 65 total reviews; not too worried about the critic's anyway due to the director
-IT'S DAVID GODDAM MOTHERfrickING CRONENBERG.... bitches
I cannot wait.

I'd never heard of it so I did a little reading up. Trailer looks interesting and Pattinson is an odd choice but he gets hated on for Twilight but I think he's actually a pretty good actor. Meta score and imdb early ratings aren't too great.

2. It's Cronenberg so even if it's not great it will still be worth a watch and better than the other filth in theaters.
3. This may be one of those movies that I love while many others don't.
4. Or it could completely suck.

Not sure I've ever seen an "official" thread for a something that's going to span about a page.
I was pumped to see this before it got shown at Cannes. I'll still check it out, but I'm much more tempered now. I usually dig Cronenberg. Even though he doesn't have what I'd consider traditional flourishes, you can always tell when a movie's his.

Giamatti was actually in Good Morning America today promoting the film. Showed a clip of an exchange between him and Pattinson and it looked promising.

Did superior get banned?
Posted on 8/13/12 at 8:58 pm to iwyLSUiwy
Just checked his last post and his sig & avi are gone.

Superior,
If you're out there.... somewhere...... reading this. I miss you. We ALL miss you. You are missed. And needed. The end.

Pattinson is a good actor, not great

once he got his girlfriend, he lost his love for arthouse films, and sold his soul for vagina
As for Cosmopolis, I don't know, I just have this feeling that it is going to suck horrendously. Like not even your worst movie snob will be able to say it had any redeemable qualities suckage.

I hope y'all find each other. I hate stories of love lost.
Btw...what did SP get the hammer for?

Finally saw this movie and went to Canal Place for the first time. Anyone else seen it?
Posted on 9/20/12 at 12:57 am to Blue Velvet
More importantly, did SP ever get unbanned?
Posted on 9/20/12 at 12:59 am to Blue Velvet
Didn't know you lived in NOLA. I'll check this one out over the weekend, but I'll probably pop my post-renovation Canal Place cherry seeing The Master on Friday (I went to go see Beasts of the River Wild there with my ex, but it was sold out when so we showed up so we just got drunk in the Quarter instead.)
Posted on 9/20/12 at 1:21 am to THRILLHO
Just moved here. I want to see Beasts and I cannot wait for The Master.

I watched this last night. It was fricking terrible. I haven't seen many bad movies since I'm pretty good at sniffing out the bad ones and not seeing them in the first place, so I can honestly say it was the worst movie I've ever seen.
