Your entire resume could just hang on pacific rim, I have a 3d tv still, and whilst 3d is regarded as a gimmick usually, it's almost like a revelation to the viewers when I put pacific rim 3d on, quite literally they don't want to watch other 3d movies I own, just that one because it's so grand

Even though Magnolia has the lowest Metacritic score of his of his films it’s 78 score is fairly high and only slightly worse than several movies he directed.

I even think smokin Aces is a better movie. They just turned the building into a train.

He didn't. He was getting on the train to kill the hornet, and completely coincidentally run into Brad Pitt and recognized him from the wedding, and assumed that he must have also been part of the poisoning plot.
It's just another example of Brad Pitts character having incredible bad luck throughout the movie

Mind blowing part is lady bug actually saves the wolves life unknowingly by knocking his wine glass over on accident

I could see him having trouble reliving Magnolia. It's a memorial for his father who died of cancer and also a tribute to his ex, Fiona Apple. I wouldn't want to put myself in that frame of mind again if I were him.

It’s because he has the world’s worst luck (for his targets) but incredibly good luck for himself, killing everyone unintentionally. It’s like bad/good luck is his superpower.

I watched the original West Side Story with headphones last year and it astounded me. I felt like I was right there with the characters, with music swelling around me.
A lot of Studio Ghibli movies are incredible with headphones too. Princes Mononoke comes to mind.
Also, Umbrellas of Cherbourg has a truly haunting score that sounds great on any immersive sound system.

I know right. All. Clearly.

That's why I don't try to overanalyze the films I like. I have the same reaction to Altman films. He's a major inspiration for PTA.

I wouldn't say it's akin to straight to DVD.

Just because you didn't like it doesn't mean it wasn't a great movie or that many other people loved it.

Love those 2 but Altman is the one who has influenced some of PTA's films a lot and is probably closest to that feeling.

I think Brad Pitt’s character works well this way because the audience isn’t suppose to see him as a good assassin. How he got and still has his job is beyond me. Maybe that’s why he wants to take vacation time.

Reply to What great, classic movie should have a remake, even if most people know the ending? by FreeThinker76
I loved what GDT did with Nightmare Alley. I love all old noir films, but the violence sometimes feels so dated, which can mute the climax. I can't think of any examples to remake, but I just thought what he did felt so potent. I mean he usually punctuates his endings with violence, which is why maybe it fit so naturally into his oeuvre.
