I dare you to anticipate Joaquin Phoenix in Todd Phillips's JOKER (now with something that may or may not be a SPOILER)

*phoenix takes the oscar, academy orchestra plays "Tears of a Clown"*

Now there's someone I would've liked to see portray the Joker!

we don’t deserve a Crispin Glover Joker

We totally don't. But...can you even imagine the magic?

I just watched River's Edge, just an awful movie, but Crispin Glover was fun, proto-Tom DeLonge SoCal punk.

I love that movie!

it's quite good... plus babealicious young Keanu

yeah, river's edge is good, wtf flappy

No it's bad

river’s edge is good, wtf jim

it's good jim

the story just doesn't make sense to me (the silence of the gang around their friend's murder, sort of coerced by crispin glover's weedy leader just seems odd) and crispin glover gets a bit much. him just shouting "feeeeeeeeeeck!" etc.

are u .... trolling jim

there's a thin line between Heathers and Sweetie... River's Edge crosses it

Some of the worst Hollywood actor attempts at playing 'punk' I've ever seen

I disagree. The characters in that movie are basically the kids I went to high school with.

for sure, everyone except Glover and Reeves (though CG is pretty funny)

Err wasn’t River’s Edge was based on a true story?

And it’s great, stfu with these challops.

yeah it's loosely based on a true story.

doesn't make its fictional rendering anymore convincing

Fire in the Sky also based on a true story

Yeah, totally same deal Neanderthal, thank you.

Anyways it’s good and I see it as a sorta bridge between like early Spheeris and Larry Clark, Vant Sant teen flicks. Issues with acting or plausibility barely registered to me.

over the edge - which the director co-wrote i think - is way better

Over the Top is the best

^^also based (very loosely?) on true events?

xpost

Yeah apparently!

Xp. Over the top is of course a moving masterpiece

best comment ive read "joaquin phoenix steals the movie"

insightful commentary

trenchant joker commentary

Overwhelming praise on the French critical front. Predominant hermeneutic line: 'shit's fucked in America, yo.'

lol

only the clown movie can truly speak to the rot at America's core

River's Edge is amazing, flappy you dead to me

motherfucker! FOOD EATER!

Over the Edge also amazing

ITT: edgelords

people i know who have seen this are saying it's good

One for the poster

River's Edge is just insufferably corny, the very specific proto-Twin Peaks stilted tone doesn't work for me so the whole movie is just silly and weightless, verging into MST3K territory at times (younger brother pointing gun at Keanu).

Having said that, I despise MST3K and everything they stand for.

Been meaning to see Over the Edge for years

flappy do you despise mst3k because they are...

...jokers?

my man

love MST3K, i just wish they'd gotten it together to do American Beauty and some other oscar baits.

I just think mocking movies as ritual is heresy

It’s not mockery it’s commentary

it's in our nature to despise things we don't understand

ok i get off the boat here

flappy boat

it's fun to watch a movie with friends (AT SOMEONE"S HOME) and riff but I never understood the appeal of MST3K, besides disagreeing with its premise on moral grounds.

It's like the riffing with friends scenario only actually funny

Every time I go to a party where friends "riff" on a movie, eight people scream over the movie for two hours
