Yeah, I thought it was garbage too.

>the book was so much better bro
>reading is like movies for smart people
>i guess it's all right if you like watered-down hollywood product

epic, dude

never read the book, unfortunately, McCarthy isnt translated in my country(aside for NCFOM) and while i'd love to read him, especially the Blood Meridian, i doubt that my English is decent enough to fully appreciate hes prose

I was being sarcastic; you don't need to read the book to appreciate the movie. That said, it is a really good book and if you ever get the chance, you should give it a try.

If you can type that post you should be fine

Eh, I thought it was well made, about as good as that movie could've been. I just didn't like how bleak and sad it was.

Based fucking Viggo, literally the most underrated actor on hollywood nowadays

>papa

The Road is written VERY simplistic. You should definitely be able to read it - I would be more vary of Blood Meridian, it's a lot more descriptive. You could always read a few pages on amazon to try it out.

For once the film is as good as the book - it's quite a direct retelling with only a few scenes merged or removed - notably them following a pregnant couple and later finding out that they have eaten their newborn.

The dialogue is very simplistic, but some of McCarthy's descriptors are quite complex and exact.

one of the best movies of all time

>Viggo
>hollywood

He's semi-outcast from Hollywood, after he made some critical comments about Israel. He only gets roles from European filmmakers or from directors who don't give a shit about Hollywood politics like David Cronenberg

I don't think an apocalypse would be happy and bright

Sounds like he gets better roles than anybody else

No, but there are apocalyptic scenarios that aren't hopeless like The Road. Or at least the characters believe they'll be able to make something of the world they live in.

Anyone that says they didn't cry at the end of this movie is fucking lying.

There's nothing to make out of that world, it's fucking dead, the only thing they have is to survive, which is what the movie is about, not every movie has to be all nice and happy

I wouldve liked the movie better if instead of the kid finding another family to go along with, it'd show him wandering around helplessly until he starved to death/got caught by cannibals

from an artistic standpoint, yes. Luckily he cares more about making art than making money.

The ending actually gave me that impression, but I still can't see a way to survive when the entire world is dead. As far as I could tell there was no sustainability whatsoever.

That scene was a bit much. It's already hard to believe a malnourished woman would carry the baby to term and deliver is safely, but then having them kill and eat their child is overkill. We get it, the world has lost its humanity, I don't need to be beat over the head with it like that

>That fucking cannibal basement
I was 13 when I watched this and I will never forget that, bleak as fuck.

He's worth 30 mill, he's rich enough to only care about the roles

The point wasn't really that they're all going to die soon and they should just fucking give up now. It's more about how we live with death as a looming certainty for all of us, coming faster than we ever dare to think and how survival and living is bleak and hard - but we still persist and hope.

It doesn't say whether this is stupid or worthwhile, its just what people do. The kid might even survive to old age but ultimately he's in a dying universe, so is it worth it carrying on hope and humanity? The father definitely thinks so, the cannibals don't, his wife didn't.

Right, but I don't have to like a movie just because it goes against the grain.

Yeah i agree, she didn't necessarily carry it to term though, could have been a stillbirth.

he also has his own vineyard and small publishing house that publishes poetry.

patrician as fuck.

sounds like a faggot baka

it was fine but should have been WAY grayer

Once again I have to come in this thread and tell the people who like this movie that they have been duped by the PC Hollywood Global Warming agenda. Despite most of the movie following the book word for word, when Viggo meets the old man, the writers/director inserted an additional line that completely changes the meaning of the original scene and warps it to promote the global warming agenda.

In the movie the old man says:

>I knew this was coming; this or something like it. There were warnings. Some people thought it was a con. I always believed in it.

In the book however, the exchange goes like this:

>Old Man: I just keep going. I knew this was coming.
>Man: You knew it was coming?
>Old Man: Yeah. This or something like it. I always believed in it.

Notice the wording of the first quote. "Some people thought it was a con". There you have it, global warming is to blame! So congrats I guess for being duped.

they did it for thousands of years before doctors were around.

I'd think that that would be a good way to learn English descriptions better, though

He sounds like a pretentious faggot

.....

Right mate.

it's only pretentious if you pretend. He's the real deal.

Faggo Mortenson?

hes a fag and your a fag for sucking his cock live on the internet

Fair enough

yeah well my dad could beat up your dad and your mom is a whore

holy fucking pleb batman

>Oh no, I've been duped into wanting to protect the earth I live on

>sell us your property, its worthless if Yellowstone erupts!
>Mass extinctions happen every 60 million years, we're overdue, buy my bunker space!
>Terrorists or dictators will start the nuclear war any day now, we've got to buy survival gear!

cons always play to fear. there's nothing that says it was climate change

Good movie desu

Don't bite the bait. The line in the movie in no way has anything to do with climate change. Referring to any type of doomsayers as a con happens all the time: people who prophesise nuclear war, comet strikes, religious smiting etc.

I cried like a little bitch pretty much during the whole movie, partly cos i watched it drunk and partly cos Viggo looks like/reminds me of my dad amazingly...

yeah I'm sure that 99% of climate scientists are all in on this hoax, so they can profit from you being more energy efficient

So you're only pretentious if you PRETEND to be pretentious?

No surprise your sodomized dad resulted in such a bitch of son crying at movies.

No he's pretentious but he pretends to own a vineyard and poetry house. It's all very postmodern. He does suck dick for real tho.

You should be crying for the fucking planet and what we are doing to it.

...

> What the chinese and indians are doing to the planet

You are right, nuke them all, race war when?

it's pretentious to pretend that you have talent, when you actually have none or have never proven you have any. Viggo has proven enough times that he's actually very talented in many fields.

kek

lmao shut up wannabe caveman autist

Man if you already can write like this than you're totally fine if you want to read it in english.

He has mad talent working a flesh pole i can tell you that for free. It's clear that he only produces wine so that he can sodomize drunk boys unless you're going to argue that the boys don't exist and then i guess neither does the wine so you are just agreeing that he's pretentious and doesn't even own a vineyard in the first place like we've been arguing. Well done you idiot.

>prose
knowing and understanding this word puts you ahead of most of the people here.

>There are people on Sup Forums who hate on based Viggo
What a time to me alive

It's spelt pros you autist.

>when the dad starts coughing blood in the church and the son in distress puts his hands on his mouth and tells him to stop while trying not to cry

that got to me pretty bad

you seem overly eager to make the discussion about your homosexual fantasies

If he's so based spell his last name without looking it up.

boy did you just admit to not being able to spell mortensen?

Once there was blood in my stool (crohns) and my wife did the same thing and i thought of this scene.

she held her hands on your asshole and told you to stop shitting?

Capital M you dolt.

nice post

>Mfw this helped me become a prepper

No sorry, she put her hand on my mouth and told me to stop crying

Was about as half as good as the book.

That being said it still emotionally wrecked me.

Prepping the bull? Colour me surprised.

>mortensen
It's Morganstein you jabroni

youtube.com/watch?v=4_EMlpi_s9I

I don't know if you're both joking but it's Mortinssen - he changed it when he moved to the us to make it more friendly to american audiences.

I thought about how that's what realistically would have happened instead of a guardian angel coming out of the fog to save him.

Realizing that I said fuck no because an ending like that would have driven me to near suicide after the rest of the movie had devastated me.

thought the same thing

The boy was too adorable, every scene where he was crying completely shattered me.

>An army in tennis shoes, tramping. Carrying three-foot lengths of pipe with leather wrappings. [. . .] The phalanx following carried spears or lances tasseled with ribbons, the long blades hammered out of trucksprings in some crude forge upcountry. [. . .] Behind them came wagons drawn by slaves in harness and piled with goods of war and after that the women, perhaps a dozen in number, some of them pregnant, and lastly a supplementary consort of catamites illcothed against the cold and fitted in dogcollars and yoked each to each. All passed on. They lay listening.

>not in the movie

what a waste

in the book it happens as the father is lying on the ground dying, so there's nothing to say it isn't just him imagining it

also I didn't really like the movie much, especially when compared to the book

As much as I liked the book, I cannot believe he is so revered as a writer, he writes like a schoolkid.

>The man looked and saw the boy and the boy also saw the man and was watching him and clouds rolled by overhead and I forgot where the comma key is and I don't care because I really like using the word and twenty times in a sentence and also using no sentence structure whatsoever and forgoing punctuation and carrying sentences on for three or four times the length they should be and stuff.

I love the book but seriously, what the fuck?

Hell, I saw it for the first time when I was 18 and that bit stuck with me for a while.

maybe he likes making wine? maybe he likes poetry? maybe he wants to try and improve things he likes for himself and others?

> Maybe he likes being pretentious

What a fucking waste of a post you just made

at this point you're just a troll or a nigger
