He did literally nothing wrong.
Also why is nobody discussing The Revenant on this board?

DUDE STAR WARS LMAO

Wait, how exactly is this Star Wars related?
Wrong board buddy, reported.
He murdered a boy.
boring as fuck movie
got 45 minutes in then went to get my money back
>>64150933
Because Star Wars Space Nazi is also in the Revenant
except for killing glass's kid?

Did we watch the same fucken movie? When he's cauterizes his neck I fucken flinched like I was there. Fucken Hollywood, all these fucken critics worship capeshit and Star Wars because they are literally brain dead and can't understand symbolism
More people gonna suck Hardy's dick for an average performance? Another performance of terrible accents where most people can't understand what he's saying, this time being a Jeff Bridges voice?

Come back and comment
because it was super long and boring
youre right, he wasnt a villian, they just forced it so he seemed like one, and thats why the film sucked

I guess that has to do with the ridiculous bear rape scene. But I read into the back story of these people (real frontiersmen in the early 19th century), and the movie did a lot of aggrandisement. Not that the West was a peaceful place back then, but I suspect in reality these people were much more civilised in real life.

i don't mind a movie being long, but it shouldn't drag this much. I gave up after 70 minutes, when I found out there was still another hour and ten minutes to go. i felt like i had been watching it for ages.
>>64150833

how do you find something like Revenant boring? even if you consider the plot to be weak it's just so damn beautiful you could watch it for hours
leo won't win an oscar for this
topkek
After the bear attack part, movie gets extremly boring.
Acting us good, I like long shots, but the fact remains. Boring. Really boring. After a hour or so, stopped watching it.
>>64152017
Indeed. They have ADD. Imagine them trying to watch a Hou Hsiao-Hsien or Béla Tarr movie.
wtf was that thing? an indian in a bear costume?

>>64152073
Did the Star Wars threads jump start a mass migration of children to this board? There's always at least 5 people in every thread calling it boring.
>>64150833
Tom Hardy channeled the guy who played Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs; I seriously thought it was that guy, and wondered why he looked so young. I didn't even know that was Hardy until after the movie.
I kept visualizing Fitzpatrick rubbing his scalp in front of a mirror saying, "Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me."
>>64152080
Probably a bear hide.
There are two faggots there buffalo hats.
Also why were they busy looting bodies when there were still people shooting at them like a few feet away?

>>64152047
He really will not.
The character of Hugh Glass was actually my least favourite part of the movie.
He is pretty boring and has no character development to speak of.
>>64150983
>being an asshole is a legit reason to murder someone, therefore the villain did nothing wrong
How was the bear scene rediculous?
i thought it was pretty good
>>64152080
A tree stump.
>>64152878
Because from what I understand about grizzlies, with the amount of time it had with Leo, his body should have been at least ripped in half, and his head chewed off. Instead it just playfully paws at him and sniffs his head.
in my top 3 best movies this year
I think leo's role got over hyped though, I think more about the environment and the plot
Beautiful natural cinematography, Tom Hardy is great but it was more abut the performance than a film.
Inarritu seems to jerk off in front of his long steady cam shot. He doesn't do those shots because they make sense to the way he wants to tell this story, he does it because he has a cult of performance. He's an athlete of filmmaking.
Leo is not impressive at all, physical performance again, he gets outplayed by Hardy everytime who's way more tense.
Still no webm of the bear attack?
>>64150833
fitzgerald wasn't a bad guy in the traditional sense, but he was certainly less honorable than most of his peers. desu i identified with him quite strongly and i agree with you for the most part. in that environment in those circumstances i could see myself doing all of the things he did; stress and survival instinct drive people to make rash decisions - he was just in constant fight or flight mode
>>64150833
Me and my wife's boyfriend marathoned about half of it before turning it off, boring desu
>>64153184
>Me and my wife's boyfriend
>marathoned
Marathoned a movie? cucks these days...
>>64153228
how new?
>>64153002after the first attack glass was played dead and the bear went and checked on the cubs, which is realistic, then came back to check him out/finish the job. don't forget, humans aren't normal bear prey and the bear was probably as stunned af too and wasn't acting in a normal manner, but yeah, the vast majority of the time he would have been dead after the first attack, he just got lucky i guess
>>64153002
My girlfriend's dad is a zoologist, she's getting her master's in biology and my buddy who's going to be a park ranger at Bob Marshall all lost their shit at that scene because of how well done the bear behavior was, according to them. I thought how much it ignored his neck was a little odd too but I ain't no bear expert.
>>64153168
Eh he was a pretty bad guy. To me it came off that he took the job of seeing Glass off to grab the $200 bucks and then let him die/kill him anyway. He was motivated by greed and when Glass' kid caught him he just kept digging a hole for himself.Glass' kid was a little bitch though
>>64153168

if only Leos character was as interesting as Hardys
>>64152738
>>64152017
didnt he get healed three times , fought indians twice, fought bandits twice, lost all his shit three times, went through an natural hazard twice, pass out three times, etc
at some point it just felt like padding. like how much more oscar bait can we just throw in here?
>>64153713
theres a reason he doesnt win awards.

>asshole
*treenigger
>>64153138
This is only the first part of the attack.
>>64151045
At this point it's just endearing, even his speaking voice doesn't sound like a normal person's
I think his dick-sucking lips get in the way of him enunciating properly
>>64150833
>How is he the villain?
>I need for their to be a good guy and a bad guy in every movie, and I need that to be a clear distinction simply laid out for me!
>I can only understand good vs. bad, that's why I love capeshit so much!
FUCK OFF BACK TO REDDIT!!!!!
I liked it.
Simple story
Gorgeous Man vs Nature photography and general cinematography
Good performances by Hardy and DiCaprio, but nothing to write home about.
Great climatic battle at the end.
I really enjoyed the movie. It wasn't lolsodeep like Birdman, but it doesn't have to be. It's a great way to show how brutal nature is and how small a man is, which was the whole point of the movie, I think. Lubeski's gonna get his hat trick.
I really like the duration of the nature porn shots, but I don't mind slow movies.
Also, what is it with dicaprio's roles always have him doing his weird-ass cough? Is that in his contract or something? I've watched catch me if you can, the wolf of wall street and the revenant in the last 2 or 3 weeks and he does it every fucking time.
>>64153733
It took the real Hugh Glass six weeks to crawl back.
How much is true is up for debate, but his injuries were brutal. Check out his wiki, kek.

>>64154031
>>64154152
The story is simple but there a lot of metaphors and and deeper themes hinted at (which I liked).
Literally twice as good as Star Wars.
>>64154254
Goddamn tree niggers
>>64150833
because its a snooze fest
>>64154256
Heh, comparing it to star wars is idiotic. It's two different purposes for movies. I did like it a heck of a lot more than Hateful 8, though. Should've used 70mm cameras on this one instead, the nature porn had me breathless.
>>64152017
I never knew aesthetics was the main factor in making a movie great. I guess every black and white film and anything made prior to HD is defaulted to shit then.
Fucking great film
Most normies won't watch it but will assume leo deserves the oscar anyway cause memes
Those that do watch it will hate it. It'll be really funny. I can't wait
>>64154305
>implying you are not a turbo-pleb
Don't sweat it bro. The new Marvel movie is coming soon.
>>64154214
that was a momma bear protecting her cubs
I'm not sure it was tryna rape leo but i'm down with it regardless
>>64154256
what deeper themes?
>>64151895
They were civilised, except for Fitzgerald.
>>64154362
It's filmed with exactly the same film language that human-on-human rape scenes in movies are pretty much always shot. Either it's literally raping him or it's symbolism and just meant to look like it but there's some weird intent going on there.
>>64151952
Its bait.
>>64154340
Both are movies. I will compare them and there is nothing you can do to stop me :^)
>It's two different purposes for movies.
Both should try get me engaged on an emotional level. Star Wars pretty much failed at this completely.
>>64151243
I'm sure there's a star wars thread with your name on it, boy.
Mary Sue Rey, and the guy with a dick as a nose, and the black guy Finn who I thought was the only character, besides penis nose, were the only characters who felt real to me.
but i'm sure there's a star wars thread out there with your name on it.
>>64154436
The fuck are you talking about? The bear scene is cool and everything but it's like 3 minutes in a long ass movie. Have you even seen it?

Hitler was an asshole yet most of the world wanted to kill him.
>>64150833
He sounded too much like Bane sometimes.

nope
>>64154458
I didn't say you couldn't compare them, I said you'd be an idiot if you did. You are free to be an idiot, I'm not gonna try and stop you.
You are also free to look up multiobjective optimization and pareto-optimal sets to understand why it's an idiot thing to compare a two hundred million CGI-filled feel good blockbuster to a slower more contemplative oscar-baity movie. Or don't, I honestly don't care to beyond writing this reply.
>>64154517
Hitler was a piece of filth who murdered not only 6 million jews but tens of millions of Russians. Yes, Stalin killed More Russians than Hitler ever did, but that's not the point at the moment now is it.
>>64154627
Is it the most expensive oscar bait considering its budget is 145 million dollars?
It's probably the most expensive artsy movie.
>he hug his son but it was a tree in his dream
>>64154700
Sure, but I don't think they aimed for that budget initially. Is cloud-atlas trying to be oscar-baity? It did have Tom Hanks.
>>64154772
Watchowskis dont do Oscar bait.
They can only do sjw bait now
>>64154387
The entire movie and survival ordeal represents how Leo's soul feels at every Academy Awards ceremony.
So the moral of the story is that French people are scum? They instigated everything
>>64154865
>now
Yeah, but I felt that Cloud Altas fell in the middle of the transition period (kek) between their matrix movies and their sjw movies.
I really liked the movie for what it was.
>>64155069
Moral of the story is that Gawd wazza squrl and the big guy ate dat sumabitch

>>64150833
The ending scene felt like they tried to do the Old Boy ending scene but not as good.
Literally both are set in the snow with a bearded guy making a sad face then a weird smiley face.
In the book, he didn't even kill Glass' son. That was added to villainize him so the audience wouldn't have doubts lol.
>>64155118
Actually this was one particular tribe, and it goes without saying that their hostile behaviour was in response to the Whites encroaching on their territory and aggressively trying to push them back or force them into subservience. No one is just gratuitously killing each other here.
>>64155220
Glass never even had a son in the wiki page.
>>64150833
Because it doesn't go wide until 1/8.
>>64151043
I laughed when he fell off the cliff with his horse. This movie got silly after awhile and not in a good way.
I enjoyed Bone Tomahawk much more.
I really really don't like the director, and my guess is that many other people here don't give a shit about his garbage either.
If Bale was in it, I bet more of us would go, but after Django most of us probably found ourselves thinking Leo was washed out, and frankly Hardy has never been that great an actor to begin with.
>>64154362
as retarded as anon was, Civil War could actually be pretty good. Winter Soldier was done better than most other Marvel shit, and Civil War has a lot more going for it

I disliked Birdman but loved Revenant.
It felt a lot less forced and preachy.
Sure there are some scenes of pretentiousness but no "I'm an artist! Everytime I go out there I give to you my all!"
Even the long takes felt natural since they knew when to make cuts.
>>64155516
Queen of Earth

Carol
>>64152017
Sort of agree. The plot was REALLY weak though, like shit tier. Lubezki is Our Lord and Savior though
>>64153733
Yeah, and the worst part is that the true story has way more variety, is much more satisfying in a literary sense, and doesn't rely on cliché overacting but they needed muh cliff and muh waterfall and muh dreams. There was padding and it was all total shit.
>>64150833
I loved Revenant and hated 127 hours.
Sure revenant is longer but it was a better experience, more visceral and way prettier. It also had the best fight scene and most painful scenes to watch of 2015.
>>64155069
not to defend those frogs, but the movie was set in 1832 right after the louisiana purchase and montana and south dakota were new american terrirtories. there were still frenchies there because it had been theirs and they were salty that the americans were driving them out and taking over their turf
>>64156651
1822, so even more accurate
>>64155480
I liked this movie and DiCaprio was fine, but it definitely would have been better with Bale.

Bad guys are cool and good guys are lame. What do you expect from edgy, meme-loving teens and manchildren?
>>64156651
I felt that hatchet drop on hardys fingers in that last fight
>>64157361
Speaking of the hatchet, what happened to it after Glass sunk it into Fitzgerald's torso? I was expecting Fitzgerald to take it out and try to use it himself, but it was gone.
>>64157173
my one big criticism of the entire film was fitz robbing the safe. to begin with, he'd probably never used a safe in his life, maybe not even seen one close up, and he only has a few minutes from when filcher gets back to make his getaway and he somehow manages to crack the safe and rob it while gathering all of his shit for a weeks long innawoods trip in the middle of winter
>>64150833
Because the movie is trash and so is leo
/thread
>>64157712
I didn't have as big a problem with that as I did cutting away when he and the Captain shot at each other, as if there was any doubt as to who got the better of that. Just show it.
Movie was boring and formulaic. It got ridiculous after awhile with how much shit happens to Leo so that is why critics maybe called it a comedy. The movie just played it very safe and it was a snoozefest, they just wanted to hurry out and put some frontier movie out with Leos name attached and make quick bucks.
>>64157712
Didn't think that was completely unbelievable, the moment the french dude told them Leo could be alive, Hardys character knew he was fucked, from then on he had enough time to act.
About the movie, I liked it, I didnt find it boring, and thought they really could transmit the shit that Leo was going through.
As for his performance, its hard to say it was good since for 90% of the movie hes grunting, moaning and dragging himself in the snow.
Also, were we supposed to sympathise with Hardys character? Really felt sorry for him in the end, and wished he could've escaped, in the end he only wanted to survive.
Also thought his final lines about Leos revenge were a nice touch, the thing about how he wouldn't get his son back.
>>64158035
Yes, thats what I thought. He kind of exagerated all the shit that Leo goes through, at some point youre just "Ah, cmon".
Isnt it based in a true story, I wonder what the true story is like.
another potentially interesting movie ruined by the hamfisted shoe'd-in anti-white noble savage plot
there was no indian son the evil white guy killed, glass just wanted his guns back he didnt even kill fitzgerald. dont know what that flashback about the evil army was guy about either. the injuns themselves werent looking for some girl, they were just going around robbing people.
The whole ending sequence seemed rushed. They should have just made them finding out Leo is alive at the end of the 2nd act and have the entire 3rd act Hardy running away and Leo chasing.
>>64158431
