Exactly. The nonsensical backlash has begun in earnest. Almost as ridiculous as the people who describe the way the Before trilogy is shot as a gimmick.
Never underestimate the capacity of so many to crave comforting narrative convention before all else.
You must be new here.

Hadn't heard of it until now. Neat, but I never imagined McConaughey to be a method actor.

Is Theory of Everything even good?

Strong crop of actors there and I don't necessarily agree but Redmayne did do a great job.
98% Rotten tomatoes too. Dat Acclaim
...you're so generic for loving a film with plenty of appraise. My god.

The Globes are NOT a good predictor of Oscar odds.

Because he isn't the goddamn Batman.
Lol I hate this argument
They're running late. I guess affiliates have been getting pissed at these awards shows as of late.
Because he doesn't belong and we'll never see him again.
...also running late.

Since when do movies need a plot to be considered movies?

Let me guess, you didn't like it because "there was no plot."

Of course people are calling Boyhood a "gimmick" film. So predictable.
Because Richard Linklater is such a gimmicky director. GTFO with this nonsense.
The Golden Globes? Not good evaluator of talent?
You're saying that Andy Samberg WASN'T better than Jason Bateman or Don Cheadle last year?
I thought that was the point, I must be expecting too much.
Lol this is amusing, you can't criticize this film without people losing their shit.
Nope. Average to below average performances and story. Plot was fine.
Eddie Redmayne was in fact Stephen Hawking, just saying you guys i think the guy legit deserved recognition.
It is, actually.

He never even saw it - why argue with a certified troll?
Also, people liked listening to Michael Keaton talk about his childhood more than Eddie Redmayne talking about his honeymoon, still network tv gang
Can we save the Boyhood fight for after? I'm very well prepared to take part but I want to see the end of these first.

He's not. That's why it was disappointing to a degree.
Exactly. It's a stupid argument. Linklater is incredibly diverse.

You know, it's not even worth it. People have different tastes, I shouldn't argue.
Yep, this might be one of the worst posts I've ever read on this forum. Is Koyaanisqatsi not a film? Is something like The Trip not a film?
Who are you to decide the definition of a film? How big is your ego to say something like that?

Same. I was pulling for him even though I knew deep down he didn't have a chance.

It's a comprehensive story of a person's adolescence and it was the most realistic way to capture it.
How is that a gimmick?
