a couple more scenes and i don’t think the impact would be as great, i think it actually worked out so well he was in so many movies

Eddington (2025) dir. Ari Aster

so this was a narrative documentary huh

theres a lot of stuff that is eddington but to me this is so much from that movie lmfao

like thats the type of thing ari would've used as the punchline of the movie lol

lol i see what u mean, its a crazy screenshot. The way they’re training grok is insane

This movie was already so relevant
But now…….

Ari is the biggest director currently making movies

f***ing hell it actually brazy this and the michael ward stuff and him being arrested in the film is brazy foresighting

I feel Ari is one of the only artist that is making art representing the zeitgeist of today.

The only other artist I can think of is Ye, but he has gotten sloppy.

Watched this yesterday and was super fire. Really confused by all the hate plus the allegations that this film is centrist or pro conservative

Something about the fact that he actually did catch like 2 or 3 of those operatives in that shootout was so fire to me. I'm glad they didn't make it farce like he was missing every shot and just shooting buildings and s\*\*\*. Real nigga

yh at present he sloppier than a bbw his mental health aint helping either

It’s gonna b highly revered in 5 years time, the Kirk incident will def help people see it for what it truly is

It just was dead on arrival because who wants to pay $20-30 out of pocket to go relive covid, it was always gonna have trouble selling

I dont blame anyone for calling it centrist on first iewing, its so dense and with all thats going on in America rn, i sympathize with anyone aversion to a white Americans perspective on whats going on rn

Anyone comparing him to eggers is insane

I didn’t really love it until the 2nd watch, but i knew off the first watch ari was in a league of his own and will be around for a very long time god willing

Do you prefer Eggers?

I have not watched all his movies
I have seen Lighthouse, Nosferatu(sic), The Northman.

I prefer Ari
Of him I have watched Beau is afraid and Eddington

YOUR BEING MANIPULATED

so many people who wrote ari off as a hack turning heel lol

I think The LIghthouse is brilliant, i still need to watch his other movies to really make a proper assessment

I hate Beau, but love eddington. I think Ari is just in a league of his own after this. I feel like they came up at the same time, so that’s why they get compared, but theyre two diff artists with different artistic goals

I see Aster closer to Brian De Palma he will probably end his career having made a myriad of stories, with some iconic blockbusters under his belt.

I can’t compare Eggers to anyone, he’s a genius in his own way

That hate is mostly just from the same liberals the movie was criticizing lol

Performative leftist side plot must’ve pissed a lot of ppl off

Pretty brilliant movie

I think Jane Schoenbrun and Bo Burnham have both tackled internet age loneliness in really interesting ways
