  1. 1. Jason stopping on "Info Wars" when reading the intro.

    2. Jessica St. C screaming near the end when the ghost in the machine is discussed.

    3. Smash Mouth is terrible. I've never liked them, and don't understand JSC's fascination.

     

    I'll take it from here...

     

    4. When Paul, after 166 episodes (approx. Because I think it was first mentioned by Jason in the Gigli episode IIRC) did a 180° and acknowledged that splashing water on your face helps in a stressful situation lol

     

    5. When June remembered a bit from the "On the Line" episode with the added difficulty that she suffers from the very serious "Memento for movies" condition ;)

  2.  

    And Baby takes it to the next level with his remixes and love for music that he does NOT download but steals from discarted iPods in all the stolen cars he drives... So he takes those with the songs from their owners (cuz he does not use or own a computer) and learns the playlist and uses them according to his mood

     

    I Love the first conversation between Baby and Debora in the Dinner he says... that Trex has a song called Debora and she corrects him and say T.rex I'm guessing he knows the band name from the stolen iPod and its tagged TREX instead of T.Rex

     

    In adition to iPods, Baby also steals sunglasses (thats why he has 3 pairs with him when Jon Bernthal smacks 2 from his face) and in the scene when he remixes "Was He Slow?" in one overhead shot a box full of sunglasses is seen at the left of frame (wich I caught in the last viewing for MM and also heard Edgar talk about it in interviews)

     

    My favourite musical scene is the foot chace to Focus by Hocus Pocus

  3. (Sorry for double post I just wanted/did it for the youtube preview)

     

    P.S.: In the C.B.B. ep Edgar jokes that he went to an "All Male Screening of John Wick 2"

     

    That movie also came out earlier this year and its a cool/epic coincidence that in both Baby Drivet and John Wick 2 (also in the running for my favourite movie of 2017 although IMHO the first John Wick is BETTER than its sequel) there is a weapons presentation scene where "the seller" reffers to the hardware as food products

  4. I don't think there is much left to be said that hasn't been said already.

    I'm so glad everyone here is on the Hathaway train...which ended up derailng this whole thread.

     

    Soooooo sorry about that?

    ^^ (DISCLAIMER!: .Gif used ONLY for comedic purposes and to try and steer the disscussion back to Baby Driver ;) You can still talk about whatever other subject you like but you can also post about B.D. as well, cuz I respectfully disagree with Cam Bert and I still have several things to say but Ill post some today)

     

    In the end his character was kinda one note and that in combination with the Lily James character love story kinda bogged down the middle of the movie for me. Otherwise I really enjoyed it and the soundtrack.

     

    I wish I could add more but this was just in theaters not so long ago so have to go by what I remember.

     

    (I'll adress this and then post some more of my notes) The Debora character has little to none back story and development to work with and thats sad, but some reviews claimed that because this is a solo Edgar movie it didnt have the charm and heart that Simon Pegg brought to the Cornetto Trilogy ones, but honestly for ME I don't think that was the problem really... And Debora does say in the trial scene (via voice over) something to the effect that they were firends and wanted to be more. I would only be pissed off if that line was not in the original script but a post thought line to try and salvage the bits and pieces of the short relationship between Baby and Debora...

     

    Moving on...

     

    This could very well be my favourite movie of 2017 (The year is not over and many things could change with multiple viewings of this and other films of this year...)

     

    One of the many MANY aspects that facinate me about B.D. is the way Baby sees and hears, the world around him... When you think about it the T.V. surfing scenes setup is a brilliant parallel of what an actual baby does when it first learns to speak for the first time. A bit of trial and error and its comunication skills evolve and improve. Of course is to make a point in a 2 hour movie but observation, imitation, repetition and trial and error are how we learn to do practically everything. And Baby takes it to the next level with his remixes and love for music that he does NOT download but steals from discarted iPods in all the stolen cars he drives... So he takes those with the songs from their owners (cuz he does not use or own a computer) and learns the playlist and uses them according to his mood

    One of those T.V. clips is a 2003 Music Video also directed by Edgar that follows the same idea as the movie. He talked about it in many interviews but one of my favourites was in his guest appearence along with Jon Hamm in the CBB ep Face Fox https://soundcloud.c...jessica-mckenna

  5. EDIT: Also, Anne Hathaway didn't ruin dark knight. She want great but that movie had a host of problems beyond Anne Hathaway.

     

    I love The Dark Knight Rises, even though I know all its flaws. And Hathaway is one of the best parts of that movie. That early scene where she steals from Bruce is one of my favorite intros in the trilogy.

     

    Anne H. was the BEST THING in TDKR

     

    I disliked TDKR and I saw it on the premiere and on saturday and my face for both showings was this...

    ^^ This video explains why TDKR is an inferior film than Begins and TDK

     

    I'm not blaming anybody that was involved in the making of the movie... It was just a combination of things... I was über hyped and IMHO Nolan made it that way to make sure he didn't have to direct a Batman movie again.

     

    Spoiler Warning for TDKR

     

    I would of LOVED if Batman had actually died at the end because of the explotion...

    Also Nolan ripped off that plot point from the Adam West Batman Movie lol

  6. Hello... I'm so happy for all the posts...

    giphy.gif

     

    I have seen this movie more than 4 times (2 times in Venezuelan theatres and a week later it was available for streaming online because they had pushed the premiere like 3 months)

     

    I have a decent quantity of notes (I won't post them all of them now, but ill share a couple)

     

    The third time I saw it (at my home) I catched a "blink and you'll miss it" graffiti (as the Harlem Shuffle scene were the lyrics appear in various surfaces) in the Bellbottoms chase scene (I made a .gif) just after they back up from the bank then we hear "I Wanna Dance!"

    And before the dinner date Baby stands against the car just as Debora does later in the movie
