Megalopolis (May 17, 2024)

Wait he paid 120 million of his own money for this mess!

What a delusional dumb ass.

I mean it’s not like he’ll need it soon, he’s 85 .

I'm kind of in the boat with Jye, except I have seen all of Coppola's work including Apocalypse Now (multiple times of the different versions), and for me, I can live without them. Are they undeniable? Yes. But I don't really care for them.

And like Jye, I love (or should I say "loved" - because I pretty much hate it now) cinema. I'm finding more gems in foreign films now - not because I want to, but it's literally the only place where the craft still exists. I watched the Danish film The Promised Land with Mads Mikkelsen, last night and thought it was a great film, but 99% of Hollywood films these days are so vapid, I'd rather beat my dick with a hammer than watch them.

Saying that, I was hoping Megaflopolis would have been good because he wasn't going to be bound by idiotic executives, but it sounds like he's pulled a Lucas on the prequels and had a bunch of bobble-headed yes men surrounding him telling him everything is wonderful.

Mess...

Can’t take it with you. Might as well spend it on Hookers, blow and a complete bonkers Matrix knockoff.

And never seeing Apocalypse Now? Srsrly?

 

[jye4ever]

So when should I watch Apocalypse, Now?

 

[jye4ever]

I’ve watched Street Trash I bet that Megaflopolis won’t be as good as that.
