It's a terrible movie. There's no point to it, just like Godfather and Citizen Kane

No I always give reasons. Don't really care to tell anybody online unless I get funny outbursts of anger.

"Funny outbursts of anger" on the internet? Is your life really that boring that you feel the need to piss people off online to get off on yourself? taco.

Marlon Brando was a horrible actor. He had no point, unless you count eating donuts

brawndolicious · « **Reply #68 on:** February 03, 2007, 10:49:28 PM »

The Departed is shit because of lack of variety in characters, therefore having no point.

Sad thing is I went into it thinking it had to be a little good if TDS liked it so much.

The only thing I might not respect Marlon Brando for is how much you want his cock in your mouth PD.

The Miles Trahan Burger Experiment · « **Reply #69 on:** February 03, 2007, 10:50:29 PM »

Lack of variety? Jack Nicholson himself as about as much variety as one can handle, let alone the wealth of other characters in the film. Way to prove how distinguished mentally-challenged you are, though!

I hated Matt Damon's character especially because of his complete lack of any guilt.

I mean you have to admit, at least that character was shitty.

You obviously lack the ability to READ into a character's emotions at all, or to follow a relatively simple story.

Yes.

In the original, they make it more clear that that character wants to not be a criminal anymore instead of just showing him killing everybody.

The Miles Trahan Burger Experiment · « **Reply #78 on:** February 03, 2007, 11:06:55 PM »

Yeah, cuz in The Departed Damon's character loved doing what he was doing.

Yeah, go watch Armageddon. Films that actual require you to read into character's emotions or even stay conscious seem to be far above your intellectual capacity.

I usually end up watching it when its on TV, much like Independence Day.

Its called redemption you idiot, not misguided "IM GONNA BE A HERO" bullshit. Honestly, the character was basically a carbon copy of the one in IA, only...

spoiler (click to show/hide)

...he lived at the end of that film.

The Miles Trahan Burger Experiment · « **Reply #91 on:** February 03, 2007, 11:48:17 PM »

HE DOESN'T WANT TO BE GOOD YOU THICK FUCK. He just wants redemption for the evil he has done.

That is the single shallowest story I have ever heard. What in the fuck would make the audience give a fuck about a character wanting to change if they never were attached to him?

Solo · « **Reply #93 on:** February 04, 2007, 08:30:37 AM »

Snatch is awesome. For a guy accused of aping QT (how is this even possibly, when QT himself is a borderline thief?), Ritchie outdoes QT here. Probably my #2 film of 2000 behind Wonder Boys. Brad Pitt fucking rocked in this, and Jason Statham, who I have grown to LOATHE is his one-note American action flicks since this film, is totally awesome here. I think the man should have stuck with doing slightly more comedic fare like this. He is better at it then all-out brainless action. Zee Germans?

Also, I dont even like Oasis, but "Fucking In The Bushes" was such a perfect song selection in this film.

Too bad it all went in the shitter for Ritchie after this :'(

Solo have you not seen Crank? I love stathman's character i agree that the transporter movies kind of sucked at least the second one did for sure. The first was a blend of good and bad. You can not go wrong with Snatch.

FUCK YES SOLO

"Fucking In The Bushes" is so awesome in that movie holy crap

Snatch is really one of the all-time favorites. It's so damn rewatchable.

I'd say to definitely check out Crank, Solo. Like Bz says, it actually has less full-out action than I thought it would, and it was pretty damn funny.

True that. I think I am due for a rewatch very soon. Vinnie Jones is fucking awesome in this too. Cold blooded killer who loves Madonna.

Yes, but this was before she totally latched into him and ruined his career.

Pre-Madonna: Lock, Stock, and Snatch
Post-Madonna: Swept Away, Revolver

Whore.

The Miles Trahan Burger Experiment · « **Reply #102 on:** February 05, 2007, 08:18:08 AM »

Its a shame Revolver won't be released in the States. Even though I've heard its terrible, at least it will be more interesting to watch than 95% of the crap that DOES get released over here. Plus, I've watched some of the scenes on YouTube and it doesn't look half bad (imo).

I assure you, it's appallingly awful. Pure tripe.
