can we talk about how bad and mismarketed this movie was?
>>64597719
I AM PASSIVELY PLEASED THAT IT FLOPPED
ITS OVER JLAW IS FINISHED :^)
>>64597719
I'm still not sure what its about.
>>64597905
a girl who sells mops
how many times do they expect to to watch an O'Russell film starring JLaw
>>64597719
It's literally about this person and her "invention".No, really
>>64597929
Oh...that's why they don't make it obvious...
Well, I wouldn't have gone out of my way to see it anyway, Jennifer Lawrence is such a boring actress.
>>64597719
I actually liked the first 2/3rds a lot. It was a lot like Silver Linings Playbook: Great actors playing dysfunctional trash with some quirky little touches thrown in like the guys shooting at the auto yard or that her ex-husband lives in the basement. Then they just did nothing with it after she got famous. The conflict with cowboy hat dude felt like such an afterthought as if O. Russell was under deadline. Still, after the two duds of SLP and AH this was a welcome outing.
>>64597929
>>64598008
wtf?
holy hell.
>>64597905
I saw the film and I'm still not sure what it is about.
I mean, it's all over the place in terms of theme. First half is all about disfunctional families and relationships, then it turns to a story about the rough way to financial success in the business world.
Also all characters are cardboard stereotypes, except for Joy who only has a brief moment of interesting character development in the last 15 minutes.
>>64597719
They could have paid any English speaking beaner to do the job for 30% of what they paid JLaw.
>>64598313
she is literally the only reason this movie is selling anything at all though
>>64597719
But she's a strong, independent woman that don't need no prince!
https://vimeo.com/150967925
>>64598313
They hired a beaner as her husband
>>64597929
>>64598008
>>64598222
Why the fuck did I think it was about some violent revenge flick???
>>64598406
Based on the previews...I have no idea.
I guess it could have been about anything.
>>64598406
YOU SAW OPS RETARDED POSTER THAT WAS HARDLY USED IN THE ADVERTISEMENT OF THE MOVIE?
>>64597719
It wasnt as bad as it had an irrelevant plot. Its really pushing the boundaries of which insignificant real-life story a movie can make you feely about
I'm so happy JLaw is failing. Fuck that fat goober.
>>64597719
Gimme that pill
>>64598441
>>64598448
I saw exactly one preview for it and immediately for got about ot. The shotgun thing were in press pictures no?
OH BOY TIME FOR THE DAILY JENNIFER LAWRENCE HATE THREAD
>>64598348
This.
Actors who are box-office draws barely exist anymore, they've become rare. JLaw is one of the few left (along with DiCario and Brad Pitt and maybe some capeshit people).
>>64598540
> fat
Weren't you here for the fappening, newfriendo?
>>64598449
It's painfully obvious that they tried so hard to make it interesting, with the unnessecary soap opera dream sequence bullshit, the 'comic relief' mother falling in love with the plumber, and that gun shooting
>>64598622
This is the first time I've seen the shotgun photo tbqh.
>>64598540
nigga, one movie and all of a sudden she's failing
>>64598769
I could be losing my mind. I swear I've see her with the shotgun before but tbqh I'm sleep deprived from work so it could just be.my.mind
>>64598769
the shotgun scene is used quite a lot in marketing though
>>64598540
The sad part is if /tv/ told you you'd have the complete opposite opinion. You'd be smirking at your keyboard typing "BASED JLAW" every night cause you're a fucking sheep.
>>64598864
I haven't really been seeking out info on the film. I've seen the trailer, or it's been on while I'm in the room, but I don't recall the shotgun in any scene I saw.
But I imagine it would be used a lot, it makes the film look more interesting then it probably is.
>>64597719
It was nothing special, but it was better than AH
O Rustles is such a fucking bore
Hopefully this whores career is finished after all those photes have exposed her to be disgusting degenerate trash.
>>64598743
I'm not your friend, autismo. She has a face that resembles a potato.
>>64598774
Don't forget about Serena and the latest Hunger Games (lowest-grossing in the franchise).
>>64598919
Nah, never been a fan of J-Law. Have fun obsessing over your waifu's toenails, though, you socially retarded smegma-licker.
>>64599140
i hate you newbie fucks who post with gaping holes everywhere
you dont need those line spaces, you fucking dolt
that goes for the rest of you reddit cunts ITT
>>64599249
Sorry you can't into grammar, dickhead. Keep slurping on that Reddit boogeyman dick, though, you maladjusted loser.
>>64597719
I hate david o russell
>>64597719
Seeing Jlaw hold a gun is the most laughable thing ever.
>>64599277
>grammar
>Reddit boogeyman
you are so. painfully. new.
your type has no sense of discretion
JOY out Mary-Sued that TFA girl
>>64599350
That's great. Appreciate the input. You can fuck off now. Go jerk off to trannies while muttering, "Muh sekrit club." It'll make up for all the years you've been seen as a leper in the real world.
>>64598058
>It was a lot like Silver Linings Playbook

I don't follow
>>64599385
thnx for killing the board
enjoy your prize. the worst board.
>>64598714
>along with DiCario and Brad Pitt
Both holdovers from the last generation of movie stars. I'm not sure you could even call Pitt a "draw" anymore, he's spent most of the past decade producing and using his clout to get movies he likes made by starring in them
>>64599439
Thanks for staying. It's pretty obvious you have no other options in life, so feel free to call this shithole your home.
>Joy
>Joy is a triumph!
>Joy is the best picture of the year!

>>64599460
Not him but it is painfully obvious you're under 25
>>64599519
It's also painfully obvious that you are 26
>>64598008
Why did you put invention in quotes? It's an invention, what have YOU done with your life? Being anti SJW is all fine, but it shouldn't make you blind or aggressive towards female achievements.
>>64599519
We found Bumbletop Sourpatch's successor, boys.
>>64599416
It was like the good aspects of Silver Linings Playbook, only instead of a romcom about a dance contest it was about a woman who turned QVC into an international success.
>>64599566
>>64599569
I'm right though aren't I, kid?
>>64599663
There's a reason I just called you the new Sherlock, sir.

This guy has bants. Insults other than "reddit" are so nice to see.
>>64599715
It didn't fly so good.
It's depressing that this generation of Hollywood doesn't have such a thing as a 'Star', someone people will go and see just because they're in it. It's all so samey and generic now.
>>64599767
Every generation will have Tom Cruise. The man sold his soul so Xenu would save his body.
>>64599735
Thanks, famigo. If only a sizable population of /tv/ inhabitants had an EQ outside the range of an especially grumpy anteater.
>>64599489
>>Joy is a triumph!
KEK
THIS CLICHE BULLSHIT LINE, SO LAUGHABLE, USED BY SHILLS TO DESCRIBE EVERY PIECE OF GARBAGE PANDERFEST FLICK EVER MADE
WHO HAS THE CYNICAL GALL TO EVEN WRITE SHIT LIKE THAT, GOTTA GET PAID WELL FOR THAT KIND OF DICKRIDING

this board is bad enough as it is with the /pol/ and reddit migrations you dick
>>64599824
> especially grumpy anteater.
Anteaters aren't known for emotional dysfunction. Don't push yourself too hard, kiddo.
>>64599994
They aren't known for being very friendly, either. But thanks, Blob Nye.

if you are so concerned about the quality of this board, stop arguing and frogposting and contribute to the thread you shithead

>>64597719
just got back from seeing this. i actually thought it was great, but I also haven't seen silver linings playbook which people can't help but bring up when criticizing joy.
i get that it's a really dumb story when you stop to think about it, but there's nothing wrong about making the mundane dramatic. that's kinda what real life is.
>>64600214
>>64599927
What would you like to talk about, anons? Bring up a serious topic pertinent to the thread, and I'll make a quality post.
>>64600278
I thought the music and the "fantastical" elements were really well done. As I said, the first 2/3rds were very strong. I just didn't buy the ending conflict.
does jlaw say the word masturbate in this film cinema
>>64597719
>mismarketed
explain. I don't plan on watching it ever. I'm glad this team finally made a dud. Their style worked for silver linings, but you could see how shit it could get in hustle and I guess this movie showed its full potential.
>>64600414
nope, this movie is as sexless and loveless as can be
It's not JLaw I hate
It's David O Russell.
>>64600424
I haven't seen it, but I imagine it's akin to Crimson Peak: marketed as a gothic horror with romantic elements when it's really a gothic romance with horror elements.
Similarly, the trailers for Joy made it seem as if the protagonist is a feminist's dream, when really, reviews indicate the story is largely mundane. Feminists will probably still enjoy seeing the self-realization of the protagonist, though.
>>64598008

>look the movie up
>it's literally what you said
what in the literal fuck?
When me and the wife went to see Spectre, the trailer for this showed, and the bit where she does the sooper serius bit of ACTING with something about 'muh family', about half of the theatre groaned, laughed or just sighed and said 'jesus'.
So horribly cringeworthy, the whole trailer was just JLAW: DOING THE ACTING and not a single person in there gave a fuck. People are getting tired of her constant mugging to the camera yawning out her monotone lines.
>>64600657
>wife
pics? /tv/ isn't really a "dox" board
Is this worth watching? There's only two promo handout stills on IMFDB lel
>>64597719
I think they marketed it the way they did intentionally, as a kind of ambiguous thriller-type movie, so people wouldn't know it was about some housewife and her idea for a mop, and would see it for jennifer lawrence
>>64600657
yeah, trailers are almost universally shit. plus you were all there to see spectre so your opinion doesn't count for much
I don't know why people got/get hot and bothered by JLaw. She always struck me as that annoying girl in high school that no one really liked but was just attractive enough to secure the requisite attention from populist driven teens. And I think her face is weird.
>>64597719
like that brad pitt movie that had him with a shot gun, that ended up being a talkie or some shit.
>>64601306
KILLING THEM SOFTLY WAS A GOOD MOVIE
THE SLOWMO CAR CRASH WAS A SICK SETPIECE
WHAT HAPPENED TO SCOOT WAS COLD AS FUCK
Plebs, plebs everywhere.
Joy was the best film of 2015, and it wasn't even close.
>>64597719
I was suckered into seeing this with my family because the top three movies we wanted were sold out and they didn't buy tickets ahead of time.
I would literally have rather seen Concussion than this.
>>64598860
>>64598769
>>64598622
>>64598448
I've seen that picture with a shotgun on /tv/ a few times and that was literally the only information I had on that movie until coming to this thread and I too was under the impression that it's som sort of revenge movie or whatever. So there you have it.
>>64598008
she does it for free?
