BABY DRIVER (2017) aka, the Edgar Wright/Ansel Elgort/Kevin Spacey/Jamie Foxx pop-song-and-car-chase Walter Hill homage(?)

‘baby driver: it’s no hook, raves ilx’s spielgeirbot’

guys this is tearing us apart, can't we get back to talking about how this film that the populace loved is secretly undeserving of its praise

reminds me of Cynthia Nixon's seizures in A Quiet Passion

After I saw this and liked it so much, I asked my spouse if I would enjoy Fast and Furious movies. He said no.

fast five is a masterpiece tbh

has B G has been on't mushrooms again?

The Furious movies are fun

yeah try Fast Five yerac. It's not the same sort of thing at all (for one, it knows how silly it is, but plays deadpan rather than Baby Driver's po-faced), but if one of them's going to work for you, it'll be that one

He said Baby Driver was cheekier and I probably liked it because there was sparse dialogue and music that was more my jam. Supposedly Tokyo Drift is the best? (assuming I don't need to start at the beginning for back story).

how about other films about tinnitus?

scott pilgrim rules, so does this movie (kevin spacey's last)

Tokyo Drift is standalone

tokyo drift features one of the worst lead performances i’ve ever seen in a motion picture, and the best character from it shows up in a major role in fast five, so go for fast five imo

One thing about Kevin Spacey is that at least I discovered Difficult People because of the reel of all the Spacey insults.

I watched Wonder Woman, Atomic Blonde, Baby Driver and the beginning of Snatched on the plane on Friday? Disclaimer: I took a xanax and had drunk a lot of wine (activation) because I hate flying so much. I got weepy during WW, fell asleep during the middle of Atomic Blonde and loved Baby Driver. Maybe I do need to rewatch to make sure it was as surprisingly awesome as I remember.

Watch snatch imo

Atomic Blonde sucked, totally drab & boooooring

IT ALSO HAD A GOOD SOUNDTRACK.

Yeah, I was confused when I woke up but people looked attractively put together.

I would avoid the boring cut of Atomic Blonde, the one I saw was pretty great.

Watch snatch imo

i can see baby driver being an absolutely a+ airplane movie

hence a C movie in appropriate settings

Hmm. Movies I've seen on airplanes: Class Action, King Ralph, Entrapment...yeah, it'll do.

Atomic Blonde sucked, totally drab & boooooring

for once I agree with flappy

It definitely felt like a valedictory performance; I was very moved.

he died as he lived, being ambiguously creepy & controlling over pretty young men

not as good as The Blues Brothers

how about other films about tinnitus?

Noise is better than this.

Doesn't Sly have tinnitus in Cop Land?

one punctured or ruptured ear drum iirc

loss of hearing due to years of listening to Harvey Keitel yelling

that reminds me, i've been meaning to ask for a while if non-uk ilxors are aware of harvey keitel's embarrassing reprisal of the character of winston wolf in a series of godawful ads for insurance which have been running for a few years in the ol' blighty
