Looks like you are getting your pool movie....

To be honest studios bank on consumers like you.

They want people to line up when the movie premieres. I don't think you would normally wait in line for a movie but I believe you will for this one since you are a pool player.

Elaborate on “people like you”.

I am having a hard time seeing what point you are trying to make.

I'm glad you're so concerned about me, it's a little creepy, but if it makes you happy I suppose there's no harm.

I am not concerned about you. I do find it ironic that you have bees in your bonnet over an irrelevant 90 year old actor and his political rants. I just wouldn’t have taken you for the sensitive type given how you communicate on here. That’s all.

that makes sense

you feel the same about
Love movies?
Action movies?
Crime movies?
Drama?

have they all been done
and everyone can just go home now?

Love Movies…….Hmn……that’s a new film category or perhaps an existing one politely in disguise, i.e., porn.
 
I’d like to see Michael Biehn, Ringo in Tombstone, have a part. I know he’s 68 and had a stroke a few years back but I think he’s ok. He has the right attitude
 
If they can make an alternate version with Jon Voigt in De Niro's role, maybe that'll satisfy the De Niro haters, since Voigt hates the other half of the country. As Jerry Seinfeld would say----

My reason for being disgusted is two fold........they're making a movie about the game I love and using DeNiro to play the main part, an actor I cannot stand! The guy is a fu#$ibg tool and probably knows ZERO about the game. I'd kick his A$@ playing one handed!

I can’t get over the fact that people are mad that a fucking Oscar winner and one of the most iconic actors ever is in a pool movie. Delusional.

Pool industry - “They need to make another movie!”

Movie industry - “here’s a pool movie with Robert DeNiro”

Pool industry - “No no not like that!”

You said Jason's feelings were hurt and he said he won't spend his money on a Deniro movie. You said he was in denial.

So obviously the studio executives love people like you that will spend $$$ no matter what. It's the American consumers they are targeting and we know America has a consumerism problem. Do you get Amazon delivered everyday? I would hope not..

It's very simple because its easier to take your money than his.

He'd probably want to fight you..
 
It's probably because Deniro was paid to be a crisis actor and this is his biggest gig....it's honestly one of his best performance.

Not be political but don't judge the message and judge the acting performance. LOL

He was so out of line he almost got his ass beat if it wasn't for the police.

 
I've enjoyed everything I've seen DeNiro in. Handful of movies but they all offered a credible glimpse. Hopefully a buncha brass plating their trumps dun ha no fek.

Pool movie: Biggest flaw, star actists who can't hold a stick or stroke it.
Option: Hire some real actors who actually play pool. Write intelligent story. Add the pool in a favorable light and supporting capacity. This concept can be developed into a credible mystery/drama/thriller/spies if you like. Doesn't have to but point 1: smart, talented actors who can actually play pool.

I would love it if they hired an actor that plays. Some actors train and workout to play a role. If these actors trained to play pool then I'm all for it. I never thought of that. This is the best idea.

That's the most played out script and looks to be another Hollywood recycle. How many times have Hollywood remade a movie? Many times.

This is The Color of Money remake except its rebranded with another title.

Ghostbusters in its many itineraries.
Robocop
Top Gun remake
Gladiator

This just to name a few. I think this movie is no different. It's the Color of Money without calling it that.

It may turn into a woke version of TCOM.

Kingpin script minus the the rubber hand. Maybe one of them should lose a hand hustling? Many plot turns to take afterwards.
 
it’s all so subjective
that kid spent five years studying
bob dylan and couldn’t come close

(who could)

No one “takes” my money. Either I want something and pay for it or I don’t. And don’t worry about how many Amazon packages I get. That’s my wife’s job.
