i remember scorsese saying it was kinda autobiographical :laugh:

the screenwriter paul schrader had a fuked up life, grew up very religious & never even saw a movie till he was an adult. everything he writes is ridiculously dark

Maybe cuz it was from a different time period. I saw it recently and enjoyed it for what it was. It's recognized for de niros acting and the dark themes of the movie. It's not the greatest but it was decent.

I watched the whole thing one night.... it was ok... I guess is was supposed to be psychologically dark... for it's time... but it was meh... :heh: I guess the only shocking thing was the part where we saw young jodie foster with dikk flying out her mouth... :mjlol:

Youre obsessed with those old ass 90s wrestlers, aren't you? You don't post without mentioning those political little b*stards:laugh:
Like you not obsessed with Rocky? FOH with that nonsense. I'm not hating at all. Do I ever war with you ? I just point how great I think HBK is just like you love Rocky. Have I posted anything negative towards him or you? Never I don't get down like that .
