Date: July 4th, 2014 12:11 AM Author: white cruise ship people who are hurt Really? I thought the point may have been, if we create computers capable of love, at some point they'll get really advanced and leave us to go to some other place that we can't really comprehend.

Date: July 4th, 2014 12:16 AM Author: Gold Irradiated Home i think the point is that things end and instead of mourning them you can appreciate them for how they changed you (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867679) |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:21 AM Author: white cruise ship people who are hurt I don't think there really was a point. Or if there was, it wasn't made very well. That was my problem with the second half of the film. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867704) |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:23 AM Author: Gold Irradiated Home i dunno is that the whole sentiment behind phoenix's catharsis at the end. but yeah, it's not really constructed around that, but what movies have a clear message other than batman?

Date: July 4th, 2014 12:04 AM Author: Razzle-dazzle Indecent Gay Wizard I found the ending to be garbled and unsure of itself. Was pretty good before that though.
The scene where he tells his ex he's dating a computer is 180 |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:06 AM Author: Racy soggy friendly grandma that was basically the only good scene imo (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867636) |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:18 AM Author: Bonkers Therapy i agree that to the extent it intended to have a "message" the movie basically fails. as an illustration of anomie and romantic frustration and failure, tho, it does very very well
best american movie of the past year or two |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:30 AM Author: Racy soggy friendly grandma seemed way too matched to irl to have an excuse for lacking a message. the shit computerface says, it's the same shit bitches say irl, all so dumb (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867740) |

|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:34 AM Author: Racy soggy friendly grandma personally i think it was a normal MPDG romantic comedy with a twist (computer) that was more or less forced into adding nothing to the plot (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867750) |

|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:35 AM Author: white cruise ship people who are hurt I agree that the style and dialogue were great but it lacked the emotional power of eternal sunshine which, at least to me, actually made a cognizable point at its conclusion. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867753) |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:37 AM Author: Gold Irradiated Home i don't remember the end of eternal sunshine that well - what's the message behind that you think? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867760) |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:43 AM Author: white cruise ship people who are hurt Something along the lines of, we're all flawed, love is hard, but given the chance to reflect on those that we've fallen deeply in love with, we realize that they're right for us. But what the fuck do I know. At least it wasn't that computers will eventually get really smart and go to some other place that we can't comprehend.

|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:36 AM Author: Bonkers Therapy i agree that the movie isn't necessarily true to the way bro/operating romance would proceed irl, and that maybe it would've been better if samantha was just some dumb slore he met at the mall. the movie is worthwhile just because it shows the way people come together and fall apart. and because phoenix is an amazing actor and never more so than as that kind of sadsack (xo joaquin) (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867756) |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:38 AM Author: Racy soggy friendly grandma yeah he did really well but i still don't find much depth in it, seems to be normal film romance to me. the idea of writing other people's letters is cute but maybe a little forced (i was run off the board last time i used the word "overwrought") (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867761) |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:52 AM Author: mischievous olive theater stage digit ratio i suspect maybe that Jones knew he had a good idea but lacked either the courage or the capacity to use that idea to state a position, so he left it pretty open. at the time i saw it, i thought it meant don't fall in love with the idea of someone, because that idea you have of them is kinda like a computer program designed to be the perfect fit for you, but that's not really who that person is, and you won't change together and someday she'll be a totally different person. one thing i'm pretty sure of is that it's not about robot sexworkers and the male fantasy denying women agency or whatever certain segments of the internet were up in arms about. |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:53 AM Author: Racy soggy friendly grandma idk the whole falling in love with the idea of someone thing seems off cause his idea of samantha was right, she just changed anyway (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867817) |
|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:58 AM Author: Gold Irradiated Home yeah but she had a more essential self which caused her to change and is really her. her programming or something
what is a good movie about love/romance IYO |

|
Date: July 4th, 2014 1:14 AM Author: Bonkers Therapy more about what we do for love, but there are also vivid illustrations of just how ridiculous and disheartening things can end up. also in rarer instances of how nice it can be to find matters requited (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=2610087&forum_id=2#25867902) |

Date: July 4th, 2014 1:25 AM Author: Bonkers Therapy "was she still thinking about her asshole bf?"
she seemed to want that tpd whilst they met up in liquor store. |

|
Date: July 4th, 2014 12:59 AM Author: mischievous olive theater stage digit ratio well, maybe refine that to if you fall in love with the idea of someone, and expect them to live up to that idea, it doesn't allow for them to change. i don't know, the point really was that because it lacks a coherent message it's open to many interpretations.

Date: July 4th, 2014 12:39 AM Author: mischievous olive theater stage digit ratio yeah, i saw it in the theater and liked it a lot, but the only thing i remember about it now is high-waisted pants and thinking boy, the future sure is going to suck, hey, it basically sucks like that now.
