It just communicated that some mob stuff's happening in the 60's. Good enough for me.

Hoffa is on Netflix. Pretty decent Jack Nicholson/Danny DeVito movie from 1992

Teenage Fansub posted:Why? So would I. It's just that I think The Departed was a great movie, and I think that Children of Men was the best movie of the modern era, and since they came out the same year, it was thoroughly ignored during the awards season by everyone eager to circlejerk around Scorsese. Karmic justice would have The Irishman failing to be the critical darling that Roma was. Also gently caress glorifying organized crime.

You want a movie to be bad because another movie you liked wasn’t well-liked enough by a bunch of random people 15 years ago? These are movies, not sports. Also I’m not sure why you think Scorsese glamorizes this stuff. Did he glamorize being a loner/political assassin too? Or an EMT? Jewmanji fucked around with this message at 14:36 on Aug 1, 2019 |

BioThermo posted:Also gently caress glorifying organized crime. I'm not sure Scorsese glorifies organized crime. The Godfather did that, for sure, with it's emphasis on "family" and loyalty. But that's never been Scorsese's bag. Goodfellas, Casino, and The Departed did kind of the opposite, showing organized crime to be a group of backstabbing bastards who are all out for their own good, and it ends pretty poorly for almost everyone. Take the sticky ends for Pesci in both Goodfellas and Casino. Or the ending for...basically everyone in The Departed. The Godfather made people want to be part of organized crime. Scorsese seems to always be saying, "Yeah...you really don't, though." Note, I never watched Boardwalk Empire which he produced, so maybe that was different.

JazzFlight posted:Maybe starting at a certain point? Just in the trailer there were 2 camera angles when the men were being given their mission (shot/reverse shot). I noticed that too... however that could be just clever editing of two different moments in that scene. Although there's no camera movements there like everything else so who knows. And I assuming it's not *really* one single shot, but lots of ones seamlessly stitched together with clever edit points?

# ? Aug 1, 2019 16:54 |
It'll be "single shot" like how Birdman was "single shot": not really, but built to feel that way. That shot/reverse shot is probably longer than shown here, with the camera panning from Firth to the main character before he salutes.

There never seems to be any explanation of how these one-shot movies are supposed to be more enjoyable. In the authentic one-shot movies you just keep searching for the near-misses, the would-have-been-reshot-if-it-wasn’t-so-much-trouble scenes. In the fake stitched-together ones you are always searching for the seams, to find where they taped it together. It’s all really distracting, not to mention often plain worse.

Yeah, I think that's just your personal quibble. Long action shots tend to get me into that edge-of-my-seat mindset easily.

I have no problem with one-shot scenes. But one-shot movies are almost never worth it. It’s pretty unlikely that your 2 hour motion picture isn’t somehow improved by a good editor seamlessly stitching a superior take into it.

Also, did you really at no point think “wow they didn’t cut here?” “whoosh that dude almost ruined the take” “wonder how they planned that so it didn’t gently caress up” “wow it’s one hour in and they’re still doing the one-shot, cool” To me single-shot scenes often work well when you don’t notice they’re single-shot. They’re powerfully immersive and don’t call attention to themselves. A single-shot movie, by virtue of how long it is, has no way to do that.

He's one of the best in the business and it's kind of a shame that he passed on Dune in order to do a videogamey Saving Private Ryan retread with absolute cheeseball Sam Mendes. But I guess they have history, too, so
