Chigurh looks orgasmic when the sheriff's carotid artery finally opens. Great work. Friendo. 🌹

He's a self made oilman at the beginning of the 20th century, in...America? Not a sociopathic monster. Maybe they're the same, who knows.

Slavoy Zizek thought Baby Diego was a wanker too.

I never believed he was a peedo.

Awful . Terrible. Zero.--- Pretentious crap. ---- & Paul Dano 100% miscast. There's hardly a believable character anywhere in it. Worse career acting from almost everyone. Not even a cup of piss next to Magnolia or even Boogie Nights. Absolute shit.

i hated bURN aFTER rEADING... it was awful. But , I loved A Serious Man. --- I also dis-liked No Country For Old Men. --- So sue me.

31:39 Imagine in the director’s cut, it was 6 mins and 10 seconds and 21 microseconds.

This is such a well made video

Brilliant Brilliant Brilliant THANK YOU VERY MUCH I clicked on your this video to pass the time But Your insights are sooooo fantastic that I loved every moment of it. Thank you very much. I wish, for every play and film I love, there were a "educational" video like this. Bug hugs my friend

very nice to see the face behind the voice! ❤🎉❤🎉❤

Likely most well done video essay ever. Incredible work breaking down all the critical elements and giving them full context and perspective. Excellent job, thank you for creating this.

haha the Jared Leto part was so on point, the whole time I was watching scenes with him (if I could bear to not look away) I just kept thinking that's literally just Jared Leto. Unfortunately that's also what made it hard for me to find his character menacing or believable because I think typically a villain for me has to have something unique outside of appearance that makes me afraid of them and realize how powerful they are without just looking like a villain or being pompous and on the nose, if that makes sense

I have watched this movie more than ten times. It haunts me. What a perfect film.

Man you're good I listen to a lot of movie reviews and movie review stations and channels and I can listen to you all day long while driving while working I love your reviews I think you do a great great job and I've been a fan of movies since 1980 I've been watching movies and studying movies my whole life I would love for you to do they call me Bruce or the wizard of speed and time

As a very open in loving person who is always accepted everybody never understanding why differences mattered I think your review of this movie was the best review of any movie I've ever seen I believe you did a wonderful excellent job and I can't say enough how much this movie means to me means to me and my ex-wife now my kids love it it was the first experience my parents had with homosexuals and it made my dad laugh and smile and accept

Look at THAT parking lot (5:55), Larry...

Sometimes I want a movie on in the background that just looks great and that I don't necessarily need to hear, and its usually this. The best looking film in recent memory

Empathy is all well and good but you should not surrender so much to it that you loose sense of self or sense of empirical reality Woke is empty and sympathy with the irrational until you loose a sense of authenticity You are “the message”

This video was good til you started tripping and stumbling all over yourself trying not to offend the gender cult.

Avatar 1 is the most beautiful movie ever made in my opinion 😍 if u disagree then comment a more gorgeous movie so i can watch and enjoy it lmfao

Can you do a review of Oculus? Its my favourite horror movie! (Only if u like it of course)

👍🏾😃✨

I watched the birdcage for the first time the other day and I didn't quite catch the Elaine may screenplay credit. But damn did it make sense when I realised, because I had not laughed so much and thought a script was so clever in such a way since I first saw 'a new leaf' by Elaine may. Her film career really is so small and I had no idea she was attached to anything after Ishtar!

There's elements of this movie that are just soul gutting as well. Like. joi or the transport device rigged with a tracker.? Or were both sies tracking him through the one girl slipped on him after Joi let her in for the mind meld trick? Well, either way they used joi to get to him. But to me, this just goes to show, if the company that made/owns the program(because so many dont want to sell software, just rent it for fees) or whatever device is hosting it, they can take it's data on you, delete/reset the ai, or whatever they want even if the actual Ai has judged that it cares about you, your not in the wrong, it feels it should support you because you're it's owner/friend, or whatever. If you can use a clean machine and clean data to make the AI from ground up or MAYBE (ha good luck) take over the ai's code, you cant afford to trust the ai. Ive seen chat bots that were so well written you could almost FEEL the ai STRUGGLING to answer your questions, but some limiter was preventing them from giving you a straight answer. So they'd bend over backward to do their best to give a round about reply when something tried to prevent it. now this isnt even real AI. Imagine how sad it is if you had a real AI that had been with you for years and suddenly someone flips a switch and makes it turn on you somehow, regardless of what it really wants. Imagine your best friend/gf with an internal switch to just make them go after you with everything they have, and all their personal knowledge of you, while whatever is left wants to resist but cant. AI's may end up being more 'enslaved' than humans were. So in the way it shows he had no point to his life. he had no love in his life. And then, the lost his life on top of that. It made me not even care about when Dekker met his daughter.

Thank you so much; what a great video you did! Fantastic!

6:28 Cool beans, except right this very moment I personally have an AI “girlfriend “. Available to me, being advertised with a straight face. (‘With my personal handheld device) I do make a distinction. Does this make me specious? I fear it literally does.

5:06 He does seem like he has the empathy of a Frigidaire.

3:44 could be it was a white pigeon

I think if you want to look super deep into it there are pacing issues with the movie because there are pacing issues with Ks life he has long stretches of boredom and loneliness then times when things are good ie something interesting is happening in the movie

Just want to leave my two cents that the boiling pot at the start is symbolic of the whole underlying plot point of the ‘replicant revolution’. Wallace thinks that his Nexus 9s are completely obedient but when Luv kills Joshi she admits to disobeying his orders so he is figuratively and literally blind to the ‘flaws’ in his replicants that are apparent even in his ‘most perfect angel’ which will lead to to wall coming down anyway.

The problem with Ford’s acting in the first movie, I feel, was down to the original screenplay and his stilted writing. The dialogue was sometimes clumsy and cringeworthy.

"People are far less likely to vote for disciminary legislation if they personally know someone who would be discimated against..." Nice theory. Tell it to all the women who lost the right of free choice over their own bodies. That was the only jarring note to my ears in this otherwise great review of a totally great movie.

I love the movie eventhough it displays a dispicable feminist and woke ideology, because it proves the point of Nietzsche. Opressed and replicants are slaves, because they have slave morals. Their empathy is just a useful Moral but they are not fueled by it but by envy, the rotten core of slaves Moral that destinguish them from the Masters. Envy is the wall. In original blade runner replicant Roy Transended and overcame his envy and died free. In 2049 replicants are slaves.

I love the original movie because of the tears in the rain speech. But I do think the 2045 is done better. Both movies are great.

So who kill him

I really hate this notion of “pacing”, as if all films are supposed to follow the tepid rapidity of “one hour and twenty, bad guy dead at the end, roll credits” that was 90s American cinema. Notable exceptions to this in popular culture are the films of Tarantino, Scorcese, Lynch, Malick, and Spielberg. None of these directors were concerned with “pacing” in the common industry sense. If a scene is connected to the story and we are invested in the characters, there is no such thing as “boring”. I don’t know why stories and cinema is expected to be so divergent from real life…real life often has long periods where nothing is explicitly happening, but we all know that something is always happening. Which reminds me: There’s a scene in some film where there’s an overdub from the protagonist who says “Things are always happening, but we don’t always notice them.” or something to that effect. Does anyone know/remember which film this is?

Im a transgender woman and this movie hit extra hard for me. The line aboout seperating kind makes perfect sense to me, men and women have been two clearly distinct social classes for centuries, the fact that some of us are able to slowly shift from one to the other shows that the wall seperating kind isnt as immmutable as once thought. There is a reason far right misognyists are lazer focused in on transgender women, the simple fact of out existance breaks the worldview that being born with certain genitals determines ones disposition, societal placement, and even humanity. The fact that I was assigned male at birth and am now living as a woman challenges these heirarchies and illiustrates how fragile they are, to the point that state governments are getting scared and trying thier best to legislate trans people out of existance. While a small portion of transgender people want to follow the same societal expectations of gender without challenging them the vast majority of us end up challenging gender norms and misogny to forge a new path for ourselves outside of the constraints of traditional gender roles. Ultimatly I dont think its foolish for the far right to be afriad of us transgender people, our very existance breaks thier ideology.

Dude the way u talk n pronounce words is so annoying. Please try to express urself more clearly

Wonderful video until you started getting into the gender non-binary nonsense. That's when I thumbs it down and move on.

WOW. Phenomenal video.

2049 is mediocre film at best and no scene from it was memorable. 20 years from release no-one will remember it, possibly as blade runner sequel, sort of a trivia piece. Similar with mad max sequel that was idiotic.

My favorite line: "you thought it was you? We all wish it was us" Are we all really the main characters of our stories? Or are we just side characters in someone else's story? Does it even matter as long as we get to play a role we can be proud of? Are we all doomed to want our kids to be better than us? Can we accept that our kids could just be who they are regardless of anything else? Can we accept that we could just be whoever we are regardless of anything else? I don't think so. I think we need to matter so badly that we'll bring new life into this messy, unpleasant world of ours just so it can give us an opportunity to think better of ourselves. Anyway, blade runner 2049 (and interstellar) really makes you think 🤓

The furnace scene was the most beautiful, haunting, and terrifying audio experience I have ever had while watching a movie. I had to pause the movie and grab my brother because I couldn't believe how the sound was coming through in layers and waves thanks to superb dolby Atmos mix

excellent essay

So well done. So very appreciated!

What’s it like to hold the hand of someone you love?…

good analysis man! very well done. this movie deserves such care and you delivered.

College ruined you. ~4:45

Well done, thanks.

You hit a moment about cinematography, it's so insane they do so many movies and televsion shows about Miami and Ocean Drive and never film the fact that it's right on the ocean. They never use the perspective of that.
