Drive is a poor mans Taxi Driver. Everything I wanted was in Taxi Driver, then Driver did it again but worse. At least Travis wasn't trying to get with a girl who already had a kid.

Taxi Driver is a poor mans Nightcrawler

Nightcrawler was okay, man that guy was autistic. Travis is so much cooler than Jake Jillinhal. Did you see his mohawk?

Drive is a poor man's Le Samourai.
Taxi Driver is a whole another movie get your facts straight

You plebs are insufferable.

Goodfellas is a poor man's The Godfather. Yeah that's right, I said it.

This is actually surprisingly accurate.

I saw it as Godfather was the idealistic part, a very, very cool leader (man I love Don Vito) who is slow to temper but not a pushover. Goodfellas being the street story, what people actually do to make this thing of theirs possible.

Casino is a poor mans Goodfellas

Also IMHO Goodfellas> The Godfather


I am read for your hate

this

agree. mostly because it is based on a real story and not mobster worship like The Godfather was.

Both are a poor mans Observe and Report.

exactly, real characters vs "le ebin make a good deal he doesn't want to decline xDDD"

The Godfather is a great movie, but Goodfellas edges it out

You're right though

Game of Thrones is a poor man's Rome

Once Upon a Time in America is a poor man's The Godfather and The Godfather: Part II

let that sink for a moment

How about this? Shut your mouth. Or I'll kick your teeth down your throat and shut it for you.

Le Samourai is a poor mans Ghost Dog

Drive is a nu-male Thief with Cobra.

Drive is an autistic The Driver

Drive is an autistic

A New Hope is a poor man's The Force Awakens

These. Drive is influenced by Le Samourai, Thief, The Driver, and Cobra.

This is correct though

Don't forget Vanishing Point

I've always felt that. Although replace "poor man's" with white trash is more like it. In Godfather it felt like they had some class.

I never seen Drive. You guys seem to love it, I always see it posted.

Should I watch it, anons? I honestly don't even really know what it's about so it might be a cool experience.

Pacific Rim is a poor man's Evangelion.

You watch PR for the special effects, not the story.

i feel like you had to see it when it was new. the synth pop soundtrack already feels dated. it's still a cool movie tho. I put it off for about a year because it was being praised so much.

go watch it right now. make sure its loud and pay attention to the music

Keep in mind he's autistic

go buy some tooth picks. you will need them

Lord of the Rings is a poor man's Blame It On The Streets

That too.

I watch it for the colors.

nightcrawler is the most reddit movie i have ever seen. i rarely use "reddit" to describe anything but holy shit that fucking try hard shitty movie was fucking reddit

sure guy

Most movies post 2012 are just trying to be paul blart desu

I think it's okay but I kind of agree.

There's just something a bit middlebrow about it, and Jake Gyllenhal just really reads at 'reddit' to me, which is one of those things you can't really define in words, but you know it when you see it. Like you can just sense the kind of people he appeals to and they collectively, essentially amount to reddit
