That’s the Fassbender I was expecting in The Counselor. That movie had so much potential.

It's been so long since we've had a Fincher-directed movie...Gone Girl I think. The guy is in my top 3 list for favorite directors so that has felt like an eternity.

EDIT: shite, nevermind. Forgot he directed Mank. I never did see that one so I'll have to check it out also.

Love Fassbender and love Fincher.

But moderately bitter this is what shut down the next season of Mindhunter.

Guess I'm re-subbing back to Netflix. Cancelled back in 2021. This looks awesome.

The Counselor is so flawed, but man I keep going back to it.

I think it’s one of my 10 favorite movies of the past decade.

I don't believe this film had anything to do with Mindhunter not moving forward. Maybe Mank did because it was DF's passion project and he wanted to focus on getting that made.

I know Fincher has claimed that the show was too expensive to make and that was the real cause.

First time seeing The Counselor I thought WTF was that but something about it had me curious and on rewatch I caught on to what it was really about and I enjoyed it. I watch it anytime it’s on now.

Yep

quote:

"I'm very proud of the first two seasons. But it's a very expensive show and, in the eyes of Netflix, we didn't attract enough of an audience to justify such an investment," Fincher said during an interview with Forbes back in February 2023. "I don't blame them, they took risks to get the show off the ground, gave me the means to do Mank the way I wanted to do it and they allowed me to venture down new paths with The Killer. It's a blessing to be able to work with people who are capable of boldness. The day our desires are not the same, we have to be honest about parting ways."

"Michael Fassbender"

Now there's a name I haven't heard in a long time.
