"Looper (Johnson, 2012)"


          

Rian Johnson is two for two with me so far. And I've been following this shit every since he announced it. This is gonna be one of the dopest movies of the year.

I hate when they do this shit put I gotta post it, the teaser for the teaser:http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=88993

Early word is this shit delivers. Hard. And it also supposed to make you think about time travel in a new light.

I agree with you on the fact that they didn't go too in depth with

the kids 'character' or the kids 'acting'?

RE: good movie, but it was weird that it reminded me of this movie:

      if they were the same person
Oct 01st 2012
53
           ^^^ this
Oct 01st 2012
56
                but did they really show him walking
Oct 01st 2012
59
                     Right. So there's nothing indicating they're the same person.
Oct 01st 2012
60
                          there's one, but it's subtle
Oct 01st 2012
63
                               I don't think they're the same person.
Oct 20th 2012
127
                               it's very clear that he isn't
Jan 03rd 2013

Okay, so, the logic questions
Oct 01st 2012
51
any time travel movie immediately falls apart
Oct 01st 2012

RE: SPOILERS
Oct 01st 2012
54
Seth's Loop(s) are sent back to a different place than Joe's though
Oct 01st 2012
58
      ah yes. Could be using different machines though?
Oct 01st 2012
62
Loopers are kill confirmers.
Oct 01st 2012
55
there's definite problems with it (no spoiler)
Oct 01st 2012
64
      I guess that's my biggest problem with the movie
Oct 01st 2012
65
They didn't over-science the time travel aspect.
Oct 01st 2012
61
exactly
Oct 01st 2012
66
It was good. But why they fuck with Gordon-Levitts face though?
Oct 01st 2012

Kid Blue character question (spoiler)
Oct 02nd 2012
74
My extended take on the theme of mothers and sons in the film:
Oct 02nd 2012
75
well done
Oct 02nd 2012
81
      Yeah, it's parents and children in general.
Oct 03rd 2012
84
why didn't they just send the loopers back to ANOTHER looper
Oct 02nd 2012
76
not that it didn't matter, but it was for insurance.
Oct 02nd 2012
79
      insurance against what though
Oct 02nd 2012
80
           Looper A could go after the Looper B for killing Old-Looper A
Oct 03rd 2012
82
                fair enough
Oct 03rd 2012
83
                     Watch the director Q&A someone posted above
Oct 07th 2012

Really great

it was some bullshit. u can't discount time travel theory
Oct 07th 2012
101
it's a movie.
Oct 07th 2012
105
really dug it...highlight for me was...
Oct 07th 2012
102
This is where am with it
Jan 02nd 2013
141
it was great. the end
Oct 08th 2012
106
Can't ride with the ending.....
Oct 09th 2012
108
Because then you could argue Joe's making the choice...
Oct 10th 2012
113
This ending is what the course of the movie showed us.....
Oct 10th 2012
115
      How was he going to kill Old Joe?
Oct 11th 2012
118
           Easy....
Oct 20th 2012
129
                Not that easy.
Oct 20th 2012
130
                     Obviously....
Oct 20th 2012
131
Longo nailed it. That would take away from the main focus
Oct 11th 2012
116
      No. If the focus is on the kid.....
Oct 11th 2012
117
      Not conventional, but coincidentally enough the end was familiar
Oct 12th 2012
119
Loved it.
Oct 09th 2012
109
the kid is the only thing working in this film...
Oct 09th 2012
110
I liked it a lot
Oct 13th 2012
120
my edit time expired
Oct 13th 2012
121
Can someone explain this loop to me
Oct 14th 2012
122
it's a flashback.
Oct 14th 2012
123
It's flashback?
Oct 14th 2012
124
      how do you not get this.
Oct 14th 2012
125
           Still don't quite see it that way
Oct 14th 2012
126
                like, you just read it
Oct 20th 2012
128
                     I didn't "get it" because it was arbitrary
Oct 20th 2012
132
                          you didn't have to read shit
Nov 06th 2012
135
                               You probably think Tony got killed in the final episode of the Sopranos
Nov 06th 2012
136
The second time we see Bruice Willis happens first, chronologically
Jan 06th 2013
150
They need to make a Rainmaker spin-off....
Oct 24th 2012
134
Y'all are okay with all this biting?
Jan 02nd 2013
138
No Idea's Original...
Jan 02nd 2013
140
Btw, if you think this movie is good, you're 12 years old.
Jan 02nd 2013
139
I liked it but the ending felt tacked on to me.
Jan 03rd 2013
142
Enjoyed this film.
Jan 05th 2013
144
You bring up a good point, but I disagree on parts of it
Jan 05th 2013
145
that's a damn good point
Jan 05th 2013
146
      *record scratch*
Jan 05th 2013
147
months after seeing this in theaters...still, my one problem is:
Jan 05th 2013
148
Bruce's timeline already played through....
Jan 06th 2013
149
      not really though
Jan 06th 2013
151
           This debate is proof this movie is super corny, tho
Jan 06th 2013
152
           Yeah, pretty much ALL time travel flicks fall down when scrutinized
Jan 07th 2013
153
                Yup. Its been said above, impossible to make a time travel movie
Jan 07th 2013
154
One question, sorry if it's been asked/answer already
Jan 07th 2013
155
I don't think this movie is very good.
Jun 13th 2013
156
Your opinion is disqualified on this one movie because.......
Jun 13th 2013
157
      To be fair, the films does have its issues
Jun 13th 2013
158
      Sooo you are saying none of the complaints I had are legitimate?
Jun 13th 2013
159
           Yes
