Was LA LA land really that good? Looked average from the commercials

bob. 02-04-2017 09:58 AM
i've seen it 22 times and am excited to see it again on Sunday.

while i admit that i am in a minority of people who have this reaction to this film...i'm far from the only one....i've yet to speak to anyone who has seen it who did not this it was good

the opening scene alone creates such a cathartic response in me that i become an emotional wreck

i don't love La La Land i'm in love with it :)

bob. 02-04-2017 10:07 AM
litereally just watched the opening number.

fucking Niagara Falls out of my eyes.

I'm curious. Why? That was actually my least favorite part of the film.

I loved the opening number. It is like so in your face and let's you know what you are heading into it. I also love the fact that is had a more musical feel than relying on Emma or Gosling. So much going on with the colors and everything. My eyes are always all over the place looking at different things in that number that I didn't focus on the last time.

Whenever I think about how the opening song went it always turns into the family guy theme.

Mel Gibson should get best director to balance out the anti-Trump speeches with some anti-semitism.

bob. 02-04-2017 10:31 PM
^......

i'm ignoring Exo's comment. He and i will be talking on Wednesday after i see Manchester By the Sea. I'll yell at him then :)

I may have to change a couple of those picks after seeing Lion. Holy fucking shit.
