Ngl this movie having such a disastrous reputation only makes me want to see it more.

[purekinema]

I feel a little sad whenever a movie flops these days, especially movies trying something different, because the entire business of making films for theaters is teetering on an edge of profitability right now and I want it to continue as long as possible.

Oscar Expert by himself in a video I'm used to. Brother Bro by himself on the other hand...

[ethanvilla]

In other words, Coppola seems to have been high for the last 40 years.

What I’m reminded of, hearing various things about this, is Terry Gilliam’s The Man Who Killed Don Quixote. Like Coppola, Gilliam had tried getting that film off the ground for MANY years, with multiple different actors in the lead roles. There’s even a documentary that was made about the attempts to make the film. And then he finally got the film made (also starring Adam Driver, ironically enough), and the film was… decent. It’s not up to par with any of Gilliam’s previous masterpieces during his prime, but you can tell where the heart and passion was, and why Gilliam wanted to make it. So at least that film had that. This… I have so many questions, with all that I’m hearing about it.

Justin did a really good job going solo this video!

I'm checking Brother Bro's twitter a couple of times a day, just to see what's up. Doing a very good job with the updates. I hope you and Oscar Expert can both go Cannes next year. I've heard it's a very good time over there. Exciting time of the year.

I'm really excited to see Megalopolis.

[Starkardur]

Wait hold up. Brother Bro is now in charge?

[TalkingBurit]

We love this brother bro keep it up! Love to see it

"But you should go see it because... you know, what the hell"

[kleins-vv]

Shame on film twitter nerds who haven't even seen it doxxing and attacking the critics at Cannes who gave negative thoughts. We have to stop this mindset over there that everything has to "rock" or "rule". You don't have to pretend to like everything.

"if neil breen was given $100 million dollars" I'm in

[bryanismyname]

The last time Coppola made a film that was anywhere near Oscar nominations was "John Grisham's The Rainmaker" (1997), which garnered buzz for both Danny DeVito and Jon Voight in supporting roles but ultimately failed to make it to Oscar.

[leannebrown]

I mean, my hopes for this movie weren't strong, but comparing it to The Room was not at all what I was expecting

[kayn]

Never thought we'd get solo Brother Bro

[donna]

I’m so looking forward to see this - and that the reviews are so divergent only makes it more interesting.

[dmanbigd]

I guarantee in 10 years you will love this movie when you understand it.

[stvnhthr]

Do you think it could be edited into a better film? Like either go total trippy or totally linear narrative? It sounds like the tone is two different, or three different films needing to be separated.

At what point does Brother Bro get promoted to co-Oscar Expert and the channel becomes The Oscar Experts
