Movies Watching Megalopolis in IMAX

Francis Ford Coppola, Robert De Niro & Spike Lee get interviewed about FFC and the movie before the movie. This was an exclusive event I'm glad I got to attend.

Coppola said he met De Niro casting for the first Godfather and he liked him so much it's why he casted him as Vito in GF2. He also said he wrote and wanted to produce GF2 but didn't want to direct it, he wanted Martin Scorcese to direct it.

Robert De Niro went on a I hate Trump speech and let's not let him get back in there lol

The original cast of Megalopolis back in 2001 was supposed to be De Niro, Paul Newman, Uma Thurman, Nic Cage, Russell Crowe, Leo Dicaprio, Kevin Spacey and James Gandolfini.

This was 1 of the most visually stunning films I've seen since Avatar 2. It could be a film that gets more appreciated years later than right now. I think if you took acid or shrooms before seeing this you might think it's the best film of all time. This is Coppolas jump into science fiction, Caesar is able to do things like stop time at certain times. Nathalie Emmanuel to me is one of if not the most sexy women alive in Hollywood. She has a few scenes in here that was worth the admission alone.

Shia LaBeouf was great, I won't ruin his character but if you're a fan of Shia you might get a good kick from him in here. There's a certain scene with Shia, Audrey and Voight that was really good and funny. It's not a comedy but I did laugh a few times.

Adam Driver held his own as the lead, I thought he did a really good job. The story can get confusing and out there but I was never bored watching it. Plus it sticks the landing for the ending and wraps up nicely.

I plan on seeing this again on Wed or Thursday this week. Is it great? No. Is it good? At best yes. I thought it was a really decent to good movie that was entertaining and it can keep you glued to the screen because of how beautiful the cinematography is.

I think most likely the film bombs and he loses money on the film.
Its not a must see film by any means, not even a top 10 Coppola movie, but i enjoyed it for what it was.


Edit: its a 6 at best. It decent at best. I didn't hate it but I didn't love it either. Eh.

Jon Voight and Shia LaBeouf were really good in it. Dustin Hoffman was alright, his role was much smaller than the other 2.

I watched it, i was bored, wondering what it was about and laughing my ass off at Wow Platinum.

I will rewatch it to try to get it or have my interpretation.

Certainly watch it in the cinema.

Yeah I watched it again and I like it some what but then again I don't. Not sure if it's I want to like it and can't or it's a combo of being boring and entertaining in different waves.

I honestly don't care for Adam Driver. He's a good actor but I cant stand his face. Also think the time freezing thing/slowing down time is out there in left field.

Is the Soviet Space station planting the seeds destroying Voight / his type of person or something?

No other reason it should be in the story.

Is Wow Platinum the most thirsty woman for genius jizz ever?

I hope the adam driver hype train has been derailed for a while. As an out of work actor myself, it pisses me off that an ugly fuck like him but any role.

I dont understand how that train got rolling in the first place, he's a frickin charisma vacuum that sucks in everything he's ever been in, he's like Keanu Reeves but worse, much, much worse

Plus playing the role of Crylo Ren didnt help.

If that guy gets any pussy, I'm fucking everyone.
