Is there not yet a thread for DRIVE, the forthcoming Ryan Gosling vehicle (geddit)?

I prefer to call it man-p0rn.

As you know, E, I also draw visceral pleasure from Temple of Doom and The Awful Truth.

lol @ the goz's toothpick in that trailer

will probably watch this movie tho

Warning bells going off left and right for me on Warrior, as they should be for you and Drive, Morbs.

A shame, tho, because Tom Hardy's about the only one to rival my love for Gosling lately ... when he's not disgustingly puffed up like he is in Warrior.

I like the Australian dude more, tho I have no memory of him in two Sith Wars movies. I do think that any film that inspires AO Scott to write "Sometimes you just have to strip down to your shorts and beat somebody senseless" should be patronized.
Then again, I have no time to see 'regular' movies.

"Sometimes you just have to strip down to your shorts and beat somebody senseless"

Wouldn't you just prefer to do that yourself? I have absolutely no desire to see movies about rock climbing.

well, there's nowhere to go after the Stallone classic.

is Gosling naked in this?

No; actually he spends a few scenes in this movie with even his face covered.

warrior is going to own bones. cant wait for that shit.

was really tempted to make a Warrior thread but i know im the only one on here who's pumped for it

dude Morbs just said he was into it, too

warrior is going to own his bone

i shouldnt attempt to speak for morbs but i have my doubts whether the manporn quotient will be enough to overcome the fact that it's a sentimental uplifting sports movie. but, i would be delighted if he dug it too~!

Wouldn't you just prefer to do that yourself?

I've never even put MMA gloves on, and really haven't ever done anything like it, with the occasional exception of sex.

this was...OK. Somewhat disappointing. A little too cool/coy for its own good.

Glenn Kenny kicked up a mild kerfuffle along those lines:

Dumb.

Hoberman likes.

loved bronson, pumped as all get out for this

what did you think of valhalla rising?

and yeah bronson was super impressive

it was cool and very silly imo xp

spoiler alert on that hoberman review :/

He also told the story of getting Ryan Gosling to do the film, for which he didn’t yet have the story. They went to dinner, and Winding-Refn, who doesn’t drive, asked Gosling to drive him home.

“There was this awkward silence between us. Ryan turns on the radio. It’s soft rock -- REO Speedwagon, ‘I can’t fight this feeling.’ And I start to cry. Literally. Tears falling down my cheek.

“Ryan is thinking how the fuck do I get him out of my car? And I start singing the song. It’s foreplay. I’m really into it. I slapped my knee. And turned to Ryan in car, and I scream in his face, music so loud -- I got it!

“It’s a man driving around in a car at night listening to music, that’s his emotional release.”

That became the film, "Drive," which opens in the fall.

what the fuck

film directors say the dumbest shit, all the time

someone should re-edit that clip cankles posted with can't fight this feeling as the soundtrack

Worst date ever.

No date with Gosling can be the worst ever.

Anyone not wish they were the guy on the right? If so, sit down and shut up.

will see this because the soundtrack includes Desire and the Chromatics

any idea what drugs these guys are on in this cannes interview?

http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/video/2011/may/22/cannes-film-festival-ryan-gosling

alcohol

danish people are so weird

you expect them to be really normal and easygoing cause their country is like social democracy most advanced society on planet type shit, but theyre just weirdos

swedes too

i love refn so i expect to love this as well

if i was giving refn a life home and he started crying when reo speedwagon came on, i don't know what i'd do.

OK, didn't realize til skimming the Scott and Edelstein pans what a gorefest this is. Planning to skip.

Already weeping at the uninformed interjections you'll be slipping into the detritus thread in three months' time.

Oops, I meant detrius.

Not gonna blackmail me into any more inglourious timewasters, BUB!

(I let Ed have it for that I'm Not There joke yesterday, I meant to CC you)

Well you can spend your time during next year's Oscarcast whacking off to your Criterion DVD of Design for Living then.

And not watching horror movies c. 2000-2011

I don't even like that one, particularly. (Gary Cooper) xp

whacking off to Gary Cooper is a horror movie.

So, has this unofficially become the Gosling thread? Cause I'm more than okay with that.

its not

i'd rather it be a nicolas refn thread. he's more interesting.

Agreed, though Gosling is more interesting when they work together.

his look was fantastic

ha yes when the title came up *15 years later* i was like is this the future i guess there are still guidos

and it didnt seem appropriate to recycle his Drive mannerisms for luke.

i thought it was kinda cool, all diff directors could could make their own mumbling crime gosling movies

this movie was simultaneously really really heavy handed and compulsively watchable? agreed that the stuff with the kids was the best.

this is the Drive thread, you lazy fucks

he drives a motorcycle in this film morbs, shape up

eh he recycles his mannerisms from Drive, still counts

someone should start a Cianfrance thread

should i see pines first or mud

both have some cool visuals, mud is better overall

enjoying this pre-summer period when studios now seem 2 dump everything that they have no idea how to market

the commercials for pines are p funny, make it look like an intense crime thriller

A shocking video is now making its way around the Internet. The video involves a man who was under police suspicion for selling drugs, even though he wasn’t selling anything illegal. The man, Donald Andrews Jr., ran a smoke shop in Schenectady County, New York.

The title is the English meaning of the city of Schenectady, New York, which is derived loosely from a Mohawk word for "place beyond the pine plains."[6][7]

movie was good, a plot was a little too cute by half but i dug the acting, the pacing, the structure

i dug the modern day part of it because of how nicely observed the interactions between the two kids was - felt p true to how teenage boys talk to each other

it was almost a little bit uncomfortable to me how much aj mimiced people who i had known growing up, then i found out that the actor who played aj went to uarts in philly

the way hes just insulting and a-doggin him the whole time is p tuff to take

youre what i like to call one of those stoner loners

brutal

handshake + request for him to bring pills to the party - turning on a dime - too real

i dont remember those parts from drive

Drive II: Still Drivin'

so this is the unofficial Gosling thread instead of the Grinding Refn thread? FUCK THAT

u wish man
