wtf is failing upwards?

...

25th hour is a good movie. Has anyone read the book?

>good director continues to make films
What's the problem bud

>Good director
>Two of his eight movies are good

It's when you're a hack but you're given good projects after good projects even though you're final output ranges from mediocre to utter failure. Mostly due to nepotism.

Example Zack Snyder, David S Goyer, Mark Guggenheim, Brett Rather, etc...

Anyone without shit taste will tell you all his films are bad.

paul thomas anderson

It's from Kevin Smith about a producer named Jon Peters.(who went from a hair dresser to producer by nepotism)

>Implying dawn of the dead isn't one of the best zombie films ever made.

Best way to spot a pleb.

>tfw I'm a massive Snyder fanboy but I hate his Dawn of the Dead

>le slow motion

Unfortunately for me I watched the original which makes this hack remake look extra shitty.

The way they edited 300 was pretty new for it's time

You were born ill my friend.

>70's dawn of the dead.
>Not a cheesy B movie that's aged like icecream in the Sahara.

Found the hipster who's never actually seen the original.

after watching the trailer 50 times and the movie only once, how does it hold up? thought it was great then

It's an absolute cringefest on rewatch. Can't believe I thought this was badass when it was released.

it's when you're completely incompetant but keep getting rewarded anyway

It's faggots like this who deserve Joss Whedon.

I agree, and here’s my pick.

Yes, Dotd and Watchmen are his two good movies. Everything else sucks ass

any white male

Nope.

fuckiing cringe

300 is soyboy cinema

Thinking the only choice are whedon and Snyder shows how big of a redditor you're

Thinking I meant that was the only choice instead of “If you can’t appreciate passionate, sincere craftsmanship that is not only meticulously detailed, but also faithful to the veritable core of what comics heroes are supposed to be, then you deserve an insincere, virtue-signaling hack whose appreciation of the material as well as his treatment thereof is only superficial at best and the epitome of artistic cowardice in its eager embrace of ironic self-awareness at its worst,” only outs you as exactly the sort of vapid imbecile that deserves Whedon.

>soyboy
>redditor

So, now we have babby tryhard winterfags, now?

kys MCUck.

Yes goy that's exactly it, Zack Snyder is in no way a failed marketing attempt by WB

So was Troy.

> being a child is thinking dawn of the dead is snyder's only good moive
> being an adult is realizing it's only god because based james gunn wrote the script and snyder has made nothing good in his entire life

James Gunn is an infantile manchild.

so he's the perfect guy to make comic book movies?

dcucks think comic book movies are high art, due to snyder inserting obvious jesus symbolism

but they have nothing else to cling on to because their movies are shit

>all this mental gymnastics to defend poop jokes
lmao these fucking MCUcks

If product placement is the price I have to pay to see things like pic related, it is a price I will gladly pay.

Find the Jesus in , brainlet.

There’s a god there, but it’s not one you probably know.

I’m not the guy you’re arguing with but I would like to point out that was the only good scene in MOS.

Well look at this, a bunch of seething Snydercucks complaining about their usual marvel Boogie man.

I don’t need to triangulate the argument to make my points. You, on the other hand, dodge questions like a fucking pussy.

This bland turd made millions of dollars starring in flops. He can't act. He has no talents. He is box office poison. Yet he is richer than you will ever be and likely never has to work a day in his life again. How does that make you feel?

Zero oscars bitch

I mean Snyder movies have exactly 0 Oscars as well.
