I’ll never ever ever understand these sort of takes. You’re watching a movie for adults. What’s the big deal.

Llewyn Davis over anything is super reasonable
That's a top 3 Coens joint

NutTheWiser

speak for yourself

Yeah his first miss for me

That’s fine, I’m also just 31 and not a baby about adult stuff in film

Loved this, maybe don't have it over Beau but it's more consistent than Beau is for sure. Aster is one of our best directors right now.

Classic

Whole movie hard but that climax is an all timer

reactions to this are all over the place

Real

I hate asters movies mostly but I’m drawn to see em to get pissed off so excited to see this lol esp w the divisiveness

Yo have any of you watched The Curse? I thought about The Curse after watching Eddington, and it really helped put into perspective my problems with Eddington.

To me, the Curse is legitimately the most brilliant show of the 2020s I think… but it’s also a GENIUS criticism of white liberalism and white saviorism.

In comparison Eddington is just so f***ing shallow. Eddington has this reoccurring thing where everytime someone brings up colonialism it’s supposed to be “cringe”, which is probably the laziest “joke” of the movie for me and also just one example of the problem of eddington. Making something like the acknowledgment of colonialism out to be cringe is just f***ing stupid imo. And it isn’t that it’s offensive… it’s just actually stupid.

Some people don’t like seeing other peoples d***s…

If seeing a d*** ruins a movie for someone they’re either 13 years old or Mormon, or both. Either way they’re not at all the type of person we should be catering to when making films.

I think it's made to be "cringe" just because the movie is showing "The Big Picture" happening all at once. It's not only showing the boots on the ground stuff but the colonial nature of big business/govt creeping into control of the town as the civilians argue and conspire themselves into the dirt

Which idk, the movie accomplishes that very well and I think it's one of the main themes/messages

You going wayyyy too hard when bro didn’t even say it ruined the movie

really liked the scene where the white protestor girl was talking at the black cop about how he should feel...made clear to me that Aster really understood what he was satirizing.

Officer Mikes role in all this was written really well.

Bro this s*** is so unbelievably boring. What the actual f*** is this s***

it’s a lot of words that can be used to describe this movie but idk if boring is one of them lol

I’m an hour in and it’s been terrible ass satire about wearing mask and now Austin Butler talking about getting raped

What the f*** is this BLM segment….

please stick around to the end tho

Bro I’m close to walking out deadass. I jumped on here cus I keep getting close to dozing off
