    You guys do realize the money from his network goes towards continuing investigations and he directly donates to National Center for Victims of Crime and Child Rescue Coaltion as he has his entire career. This is part of why I really dont f*** with this movie.

    "he is trying to get rich"

    He worked at NBC one of the highest paying networks ( CBS pays the most). He was doing a job as an investigative reporter and got paid for it. It wasnt a get rich quick scheme and he continued to catch people for the past 20 years and reported on non predator crime. The movie isnt going to tell you all that its going to create a myopic view where "OMG HE WAS SO OBSESSED WITH RATINGS" he got pedos off the street , some cases fell through and has continued the cause without a focus on ratings.

    the movie literally makes up fictional details to make him look worse . Why cant he react to it and draw attenton to his actual work

    A24 will make more tonight than he made in his entire career yet he is the money hungry and ratings cravings one.

    All of the good things about him can be true while simultaneously acknowledging that the show was overall was not completely positive. Also, you haven't even seen the movie yet

    The run he's on is absolutely ridiculous.

    Mickey 17 -> Die My Love -> The Drama -> The Odyssey -> Primetime

    Dune: Part Three, Here Comes the Flood, and The Batman Part II all lined up next

    If anyone ever believes that acting isn't an artform, just point to them Robert Pattinson's filmography

    Just saw this last night and the whole cast shines on this, not just Big Rob . Gotta second what someone else said about the cinematography here too. Really been interesting to see how a lot of the editors, directors, and producers from the HBO RenFaire show have splintered off into their own projects. Need more time to think about it but there's definitely a throughline between that show, Neighbors, The Python Hunt, and now this.

    Havent even heard of The Python Hunt

    But yeah you’re right. Definitely a scene taking shape.

    Safdies, Ronald Bronstein, John Wilson, Lance Oppenheim, Nathan Fielder, Eric Notarnicola, Tim Heidecker, Tim Robinson, Andrew DeYoung

    And then through them, producing projects for people like the guys who did Neighbours, the Python Hunt team, that Telemarketers doc series from 2023

    I have explained this multiple times in this thread but I will explain so again since you don’t read .

    You cannot be NUANCED and NEUTRAL in reporting biopic or storytelling while adding FABRICATED details to make someone look BETTER or WORSE. I am not denying he is a complicated human in REALITY .

    It’s been 20 years since this occurred . The framing of something 20 years later while they are still alive is a CHOICE. That bothers me. It’s not flexing on journalist who were also obsessed with ratings during Iraq was and we’re showing us bombs over Baghdad with great glee . It’s not dissecting the architects of Islamophobia still rampant to this day . It’s going in on Chris Hansen for an incident from 20 years ago and how he handled it. I see the nuance to what occurred

    While also understanding story telling and wanting to get a hit movie ironically can separate a director and writer from REALITY. In the same way CHRIS HANSEN RATINGS affected HIS JUDGEMENT

    I can critique ADDING THINGS THAT NEVER HAPPENED TO A BIOPIC. Selling a tie for the movie . Openly making it a comedy . Not donating to REAL LIFE VICTIMS . While making it seem like others care about ratings or money or fame more than a cause for an Oscar bait movie that will brag about its box office on Monday

    It’s a bit unprecedented to have a Hollywood movie come 2 decades later criticizing someone. We will never see it for bush , Obama , Weinstein , Epstein , Oprah , Ellen degeneres or many people we later discovered more about

    To each their own

    How are you gonna complain about fabrications in a biopic you haven't seen?

    It's a dramatized version of the events, there's nothing in there that was complete fabrication

    Fabrication in telling a real-life story is something like Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story

    Because they are confirmed to be fabricated whether I see it or not . I’m seeing tonight

  • Robert you a mothafuckin fool for this role

    Been thinking since last night on how I feel about it as a whole. I'll probably go catch it again soon. But it was good, supporting actors did their thing too.

    No s***? Not every single scene in a biopic is 100% a depiction of real-life events, especially things that occurred behind closed doors. That doesn't make it a fabrication, it's a dramatization

    Do you think a biopic has to be as factual as a documentary?
