I'm not sure he was seen as nuts so much as being utterly incompetent & allowing us the curious spectacle of seeing a man's soul drain from his body in real time.

Yeah. "What white men did to the Indians, the banks are doing to them"
Isn't exactly the peak of subtlety.
Let's take a moment to remember that due to both movies being from Annapurna Pictures, this trailer is being paired with "Detroit". Goddamn "DETROIT"!!!
Funnily enough, Joe Carnahan was going to direct this but quit when the studio said they wanted Bruce Willis, and he had been pushing for Liam Neeson.
But the absolute worst thing is people who say "I seen" instead of "I saw" or "I have seen". It makes me wince every time.
Ever since it premiered at Sundance, the anticipation for this movie on film buff/Oscar junkie Twitter has been equivalent to something like "Batman V Superman" was to the general public.
There's also the risk of the person treating becoming infected themselves. Jim Broadbent mentioned last episode that the last person who tried to cure greyscale in this way died of greyscale.
Don't forget that 10 of those minutes are likely to be the closing credits.
I kind of figured figured he used sex as a form of self-medication in order to deal with the pain that came from Addison's and his war injuries.
Rottentomatoes has ya covered:
The two of them are a perfect example of what happens when the counterculture eats itself. Privileged white (usually) men (usually) start out anti-establishment and when it becomes increasingly clear their goals are tough to achieve without compromise their response is to go more extreme.
The article describes the writer as a devotee of Shane Black and his script as Luc Besson with a Tarantino-style edge.
I think we have to move beyond the notion that because Trump is a terrible person he was a weak candidate. He was not a weak candidate. If he were, he wouldn't have steamrolled through the GOP primary. He was strong because he spoke openly about the sort of white nationalism most GOP politicians merely dog whistled,…
*faces down attacks from both the left and the right, was basically right about everything she said about Trump, wins more votes than any candidate except Obama*
This sounds uncannily like the sort of movie that will be optioned by a big-name Director or Producer and then stagnate in Development Hell for years before eventually being slapped together by a journeyman filmmaker for a day-and-date February release.
He hasn't been doing too many big movies, but Daniel Craig has focused a lot on stage work in between Bond movies. He did Harold Pinter's "Betrayal" between Skyfall and Spectre and did a very well received "Othello" with David Oyelowo earlier this year. It seems like that (and stuff like "Logan Lucky") is where his…
I think if they do plan on putting Daniel Craig's Bond to bed as they rejigger the franchise, they should go all-out for the finale. Hire someone like Christopher Nolan or Nicholas Winding Refn and let them run wild. Then after that is over you'd have a clean slate on which to build their next take on the character.
It's adorable that you think Steven Spielberg believes he needs to be "relevant again". This is a guy who fought tooth and nail to spend $150 million on a goddamn Tintin movie. If he makes a movie, it's because he wants to.
The conceit of the story (I believe-maybe someone who read the book can back me up here) is that the VR world was designed by a guy who grew up in the 80s and decided to incorporate the Pop culture he loved into the world he created. After the world became popular in its own right it's logical that people would become…
Also, the review notes how important sound design was to the play. In the trailer at least, the film's sound mixing sounds awful.
