Nightcrawler is the end-all be-all of film.

Posted: **Sun Jun 07, 2015 6:30 pm**

It's good.

I mean, it's no Two Days, One Night, but it's good.

Posted: **Mon Jun 08, 2015 6:35 am**

You're so silly

Posted: **Mon Jun 08, 2015 3:17 pm**

Unfortunately I've already learned that DA's opinion on movies is worthless to me. I need someone else to say that it's just ok, or that it's not that great, because otherwise it's been so hyped up that it may make me enjoy it less by comparison.

Posted: **Mon Jun 08, 2015 3:22 pm**

Well I'll say it's really good, but I'm not as overwhelmed by it as Sikax.

Posted: **Mon Jun 08, 2015 8:38 pm**

^ that

Posted: **Tue Jun 09, 2015 6:29 pm**

I thought it was good. Not even close to what I was expecting.

And you just NOW have Last of the Mohicans? Shame on you.

Nightcrawler was quite good. I would have liked to see a bit more from the ending; the police investigation and such. Definitely agree that Jake should have been nominated for, if not won, best actor.

Posted: **Wed Jun 10, 2015 1:51 am**

What could the police do? Jake's character had a perfectly rational explanation for everything, and didn't even remotely crack when interrogated. He gave them no probable cause for a search warrant, and it's not like he was black or anything. There wouldn't be much of an investigation.

It's a performance movie. You see that movie just to see Jake's performance which was brilliant. The rest of the movie was ok.

Posted: **Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:24 am**

the rest of the movie was very good too

Fiiiine, the car chase scene was cool.

Fiiineee... I guess when he enters to that house while the murders have just happened is intense.

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 4:31 am**

ALL OF IT WAS GOOD OK

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 4:56 am**

The music wasn't that good. I remember there was a part where I thought I was watching Forrest Gump.

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 5:05 am**

Just stick to your frilly dresses and lust for revolution. Leave the cinema to us.

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 5:12 am**

^ Sexism. Stop oppressing me!

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 5:15 am**

I mean, quite actually your recent thread topics have included dresses and revolution, and by "us" I meant me and DA (though he's usually wrong, just not on Nightcrawler). So by "us" I meant me.

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 5:22 am**

Where are your recent threads?? OH RIGHT! NOWHERE!!

So why don't you make yourself useful and do that city quiz you used to do, might spark some interest.

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 5:35 am**

I still post in my "Flicks I Seen" thread. Sometimes.

And, um, no one ever participated in those threads except for ampi. And when I did the NFL stadium one everyone quit after like ten. Too much work for very little participation.

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 5:48 am**

The music was meant as a reflection of the protagonists's mental state, not a way to set atmosphere. Therefore, with that purpose, it was also very good.

Also, I have never been wrong on this board when it comes to movies so far.

Posted: **Thu Jun 11, 2015 7:26 am**

Forrest Gump had a great soundtrack anyway.

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 2:16 am**

Maybe you would view it more positively if I told you its theme was virulently anti-capitalist.

I thought this was kinda obvious.

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 3:33 am**

Not to most people, I've found.

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 3:48 am**

A lot of people get caught up in the amazing performances and literal story-telling (which are obviously incredible) and have missed the undertones of theme that most movies prioritize and therefore are always on the forefront of what the audience takes away (every Oscar-winning movie ever). And that's what I liked about Nightcrawler; the themes are understated but there if you're paying attention.

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 4:21 am**

I think I gave the movie 7 or 8 out of 10. It's here in this board somewhere. So maybe you guys should stop fanboying on it. All I said was that Jake's performance was what's special about the movie. Don't get worked up on me for using the word "ok" on the rest of it, I might as well could have used "good" of whatever word I felt like saying. It's not a big deal.

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 4:29 am**

I'm not just talking about you Liszterine. And I respect your opinion, just adding to the discussion.

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 4:35 am**

I felt ganged up for a moment.

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 4:36 am**

Not at all! I just like talking about movies. Sorry

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 5:36 am**

I don't think anyone got worked up, and you can say whatever you want about Nightcrawler as far as I'm concerned. DA's crazy about a bunch of movies I think are shit. Sikax thinks Rango was amazing and I think it sucked. No biggie.

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 8:36 am**

I don't think anyone got worked up

^ this

I think are shit. Sikax thinks Rango was amazing and I think it sucked.

Rango was da bomb

Posted: **Fri Jun 12, 2015 1:16 pm**

Sikax thinks Rango was amazing and I think it sucked.

Silly person.

Nightcrawler is currently on Netflix. I am happy.
