The "Gone Girl" Discussion Thread [SPOILERS]

You obviously didn't read the book and that's OK. There's a lot more detail in the book that fleshes out everyone's motivations. The movie just couldn't get to everything and I could see how some of it could seem vague.
As someone who did read the book, I thought they did a great job and the casting was absolutely perfect. They glossed over some details and changed some things from the book that would have helped, but they couldn't make the movie four hours. I do hope there is a director's cut when it releases on blu.
The ending is a bit different from the book and I thought it was much better.
So.....yeah. Anyone else fairly disappointed in this one?
I enjoyed it, and I liked a lot of what Fincher did, and the performances were pretty great....
....but the plot man.
So the cops buy her story but no one seems to notice the lack of a headwound?
I liked the way it worked as a commentary on the way "crime TV" can distort facts and destroy a case, but the main story just sort of collapsed around itself.

One of my least favorite Fincher films.
Amy was a master manipulator and thrives in playing on peoples perceptions. The FBI sees a bloodied up wife that was missing for over a month, they would ignore the little shyt, because she already pulled their emotions. The same way she banked on people to hate Nick.

Saw the 1040 showing of this last night and Bravo Fincher. Was expecting this to be great and it delivered.
Rosamund Pike absolutely murdered her role as Amy.
May go back and read the book now. Brehs go out and see this.

It was established early on that Affleck's character was a bit of a man-child doofus who had very little guile about him. That was why he could be manipulated so easily by his wife.
As for the baby she told him she used the semen samples that he thought were destroyed from the fertility clinic to get pregnant. They even had a scene explaining it.

As for the movie itself...I loved it. everyone in the cast was perfect (even Tyler fukking Perry), Rosamund Pike is a lock for a Best Actress nomination and she deserves it because she was a revelation in this role. I think Affleck is going to get ignored though which is a shame because Ben acted his ass off in a very subtle but stellar performance.
I was expecting a much bigger departure from the book's ending but even still that was about my only complaint as minor as it is.
goin to see it monday
Should probably get @Jax or @hexagram23 to merge this thread with this one: http://www.thecoli.com/threads/is-anybody-going-to-see-gone-girl-this-weekend.254762/
