Requiem for a Dream

Post by Solidarity 9-6347 »

despite the fact that it stars jared leto, is the most fucked up movie i've ever seen...even more than amelie

its the kind of movie that will make you depressed and want to sleep for days but then your sleep is racked by nightmares :freak:

statement: ahem.

< note my avatar

query:what is wrong with jared leto? it is my profound belief that, despite his relatively diminuitve stature, he is in fact, quite fantastic. as an actor, he chose his parts well and was both hillarious (reference: sol goode) and inspring (reference: prefontaine, requiem for a dream) when called upon. furthermore, as a muscian, he is nearly unequaled (reference: thirty seconds to mars - self titled).

I think this was the best movie I've seen all year. That or Donnie Darko.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

no, actually just the opposite. i've seen pretty much every movie he was in...great actor...im not actually insulting the movie either

to rephrase my statement...jared leto's looks were the only non-disturbing factor in the movie

ok that's better...ditzy but better

I always felt the looks of Jared Leto's arm in the end of the movie was rather....disturbing.

Yeah, there's nothing more disturbing, yet strangely intriguing than the Jennifer Connely scene at the end of the movie. So wrong, yet so very right. :lol:

It's a great movie, and you can freak people out by telling them about some of the gross scenes. :D

Oh man, the creepy thing about seeing her take a double-ended dildo in the ass, besides the obvious reason of her taking a dildo in the ass, is the fact that she's a mom. What will her kids think when they are like 15 and find out mommy took an 18" hunk of penis shaped plastic in her ass in a movie?
