The Bikeriders (2024) Movie Review | Jodie Comer | Austin Butler | Tom Hardy | Jeff Nichols -UNR

https://ift.tt/oTimuYr

https://youtu.be/GeL7VUM6LnY?si=_wd9Y0JLwwYPakG8

Today I'm reviewing "The Bikeriders," a crime drama film written and directed by Jeff Nichols. It tells a fictional story inspired by the 1967 photo-book of the same name by Danny Lyon depicting the lives of the Outlaws MC, a motorcycle club founded in McCook, Illinois. The film stars Jodie Comer, Austin Butler, Tom Hardy, Michael Shannon, Mike Faist, and Norman Reedus.

(PC) Crashing at "Find Dani" in Chapter 5: Lost-UNR

https://ift.tt/gO8wXe5

Game just doesn't want to progress past this cutscene where Jacob needs to find Dani in his crashed ship. He sees her prying a crate open in a room and when the player makes contact with the doorway (probably a cutscene "barrier" or "checkpoint"), it just freezes then proceeds to crash, and at rare times the cutscene continues to play for around 2 - 3 seconds before crashing to desktop. The crash does not give any error messages, it just goes straight to desktop.

This is the room where Dani is inside in Jacob's ship:

Solutions attempted:

  • Lowering graphics from high to lowest as possible.
  • Turning off FSR.
  • Turning off Motion Blur and Film Grain.
  • Using both DirectX12 and 11 at different times.
  • Restarting PC.
  • Lowering resolution to lowest as possible.
  • Turning off in-game audio.
  • Turning my back and going into the room to trigger the cutscene.
  • Heading straight to her without looting.
  • Switching Display modes (Fullscreen, Borderless, Windowed).
  • Updating Graphics drivers to latest (via Nvidia Geforce Experience).
  • Installing TCP - Fixes and Improvements mod from Nexus Mods.
  • Immediately pausing the game when cutscene triggers (still crashes while in Pause).

Stuff to mention:

I haven't tried skipping the cutscene because the situation where it would allow me enough time to do so rarely happens. I also tried to just skip the part by using someone else's save data in hopes of avoiding the bugged cutscene but the problem was it just got stuck in the loading screen while trying to load the imported save data.

One last thing, I also installed Norman Reedus' model to replace Jacob and played until now, this issue.

I will continue to update this post as reviews come in.

Rotten Tomatoes: Fresh

Critics Consensus: Fueled by a charismatic cast and the gritty authenticity of writer-director Jeff Nichols' approach, The Bikeriders offers a conventional yet impactful look at motorcycle culture.

Score Number of Reviews Average Rating
All Critics 82% 50 6.60/10
Top Critics 88% 17 6.80/10

Metacritic: 72 (19 Reviews)

Sample Reviews:

It goes a long way to humanize figures who’ve been long misrepresented on film, while giving audiences privileged access to this inner world. - Peter Debruge, Variety

A striking memory piece. - Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter

Some films merely offer you a clockwork plot. Others, like Jeff Nichols’ smokin’ cool “The Bikeriders,” whisk you away with a roar of mood and atmosphere. - Tomris Laffly, TheWrap

The finest movie about motorcycle culture I’ve ever seen. Told with gusto à la Goodfellas, this richly evocative look at how a 1960s Midwestern biker club turned into a gang establishes “Elvis” Oscar nominee Austin Butler as a major movie star. - Kyle Smith, Wall Street Journal

The whole isn't quite as interesting as the sum of its parts, is another way to put it. The parts, though, are quite good on their own. 3.5/5 - Bill Goodykoontz, Arizona Republic

It is an anthropological drama that never cracks its subjects open – an approach that might work on paper, but feels beset by engine troubles on-screen. - Barry Hertz, Globe and Mail

The performances here aren’t subtle exactly: with Comer’s fierce twang, Butler’s soft purr and Hardy’s sibilant Brandoesque drawl. But there’s such enormous potency and impact in everything they do onscreen. 5/5 - Peter Bradshaw, Guardian

And yet it’s also largely incurious, and rarely delves beneath the macho posturing of its “bad boy” protagonists, preferring to celebrate their leather-clad camaraderie and the many raw-knuckle donnybrooks that fill their lazy, booze-addled days. 2/5 - Kevin Maher, Times (UK)

Nichols’s film is less interested in telling a story than pinning down a particular time, place and attitude – and does so with such pungent precision, you can all but smell it. 4/5 - Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph (UK)

Jodie Comer roars into her first Great American Film Role. And in his finest effort yet, Mud director Jeff Nichols has given her quite the machine to ride on. - Nick Howells, London Evening Standard

Nichols has merely replaced outlaws with bikers, but they're still ultimately guys clutching desperately at identity and a version of masculinity that is quickly slipping through their fingers. B - Maureen Lee, Lenker Entertainment Weekly

More of a slow burn than a thrill-ride, this study of bygone motorhead mentality at its most visceral and violent is gorgeously shot — but only nicks the surface. 3/5 - Beth Webb, Empire Magazine

It’s a vivid, fleshed-out insider’s eye view of a subculture populated by authentically hard-edged lost souls. - Wendy Ide, Screen International

The singular vibration that Nichols brings to the golden age of motorcycles gives way to the all-too-familiar entropy that ended it... But there’s no denying the Vandals had their day, and it makes for exhilarating stuff. B- - David Ehrlich, indieWire

An affectionate take on a much-romanticized subculture, The Bikeriders purrs along rather than zips, but its stellar cast ensures a smooth ride as Jeff Nichols offers some insights into the highs and lows of a legendary motorcycle gang. 7/10 - Hannah Strong, IGN Movies

The sheer exuberance of the story and the stylistic brio of Jeff Nichols’s direction often compensate for the film’s lack of authenticity. 2.5/4 - David Robb, Slant Magazine

The Bikeriders is worth watching but never enters the realm of truly great cinema. - Kristen Lopez, Kristomania (Substack)

Weekend Actuals for June 14-16 – 'Inside Out 2' Opens to Almost $300 Million Worldwide-UNR

https://ift.tt/DGlOjc3

https://preview.redd.it/p9z4424d377d1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=adc6be03b8c2302e924a320da5824b0e647f8bc0

Pixar came back with a huge, huge win.

Inside Out 2 exceeded all expectations and delivered the second biggest debut for an animated title domestically. Worldwide, it also managed to break more records for Pixar, debuting with almost $300 million worldwide.

The Top 10 earned a combined $210 million this weekend, making it the biggest weekend of 2024 so far. It was also up 30.1% from last year, when The Flash flopped and Elemental had a horrible debut.

In 4,440 theaters, Pixar's Inside Out 2 topped the box office with a colossal $154 million. That's not only a massive improvement over the original Inside Out ($90 million), but it's also the second biggest in the company's history, just behind Incredibles II ($182 million).

All in all, this is a fantastic start for the film and a much needed win for Pixar. Onward had the misfortune of coming out just as COVID lockdowns started. Their three subsequent films, Soul, Luca and Turning Red were then sent to Disney+, and that led many to question if this could dampen the brand. When Pixar returned to theaters, it wasn't exactly glowing; Lightyear was a massive flop, while Elemental had strong legs after a poor debut, but it's still not considered a hit.

Inside Out 2 felt like a more assured hit than other originals, given that Pixar chose to delay Elio till next year. And that proved to be a choice that paid off.

For starters, Inside Out has been proclaimed as one of Pixar's best films and its popularity was reflected at the box office; it debuted with $90 million in its first weekend despite facing the second weekend of Jurassic World. With fantastic word of mouth, it closed with $356 million domestically and $850 million worldwide. And the film's concept could be expanded into sequels; we just five emotions, so Pixar chose to add a few more, as well as expand its worldbuilding. While 9 years is a long time for a follow-up, it might also lead to some nostalgia and introduce more kids to the film. Of course, that doesn't always work (Furiosa waves in the distance), but the bigger the hit, the more the demand.

Even without Pete Docter back as the director or Mindy Kaling and Bill Hader reprising their roles, that wouldn't really impact the film, as the audience does not pay attention to behind-the-scenes stuff. The only key parts were: are the characters back? Does the story look interesting? That's all it needed. As well as some good reviews, and the film certainly had them (91% on RT, 74 on Metacritic). Inside Out 2 also benefitted from a really weak year for animation; Kung Fu Panda 4 already ended its run, while The Garfield Movie didn't have anywhere near the hype or interest. So it was perfect timing... but with an asterisk, as it will face Despicable Me 4 in three weeks.

According to Disney, 62% of the audience was female, and 56% was 25 and under. An interesting stat is that the film was massively popular with Hispanics; 36% of the audience was Hispanic and it was the biggest demo for the film. They gave it a strong "A" on CinemaScore, the same grade as the original. Even with Despicable Me 4 coming up, the film should still hold well. The original Inside Out had competition from Minions in its fourth weekend, and it still got to a fantastic 3.94x multiplier. For now, it is a foregone conclusion that Inside Out 2 makes over $500 million domestically.

Bad Boys: Ride or Die made $33.7 million this weekend. That's a pretty great 40% drop, and it's better than its predecessor. It's even more impressive considering For Life had an empty January to itself. Through ten days, the film has grossed $113 million domestically, becoming Will Smith's 16th film to hit the $100 million milestone. It should continue holding well in the coming weeks.

In an insane hold, Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes moved from fifth place to the third spot, earning $5.5 million this weekend. That represents an absurd 2% increase from last weekend, which is very uncommon for a wide release on a non-holiday weekend. Perhaps a result of double features with Inside Out 2. The film has amassed $158.1 million, already passing War, and it looks like it will come close to Rise ($176 million).

The Garfield Movie was hit by Inside Out 2. It dropped 52% and added $4.7 million this weekend. Its domestic total stands at $78 million. It passed Bill Murray's original version, but it's also gonna miss the $100 million milestone.

In fifth place, IF was also hit by Inside Out 2's arrival. It dropped 54% and made $3.6 million. Nevertheless, the film has crossed $100 million domestically.

The Watchers dropped 50% and grossed $3.5 million this weekend. That's not a bad drop considering the awful reception, although the fact that it opened very low surely has to do it. Through ten days, the film has made just $13.5 million, and with A Quiet Place: Day One coming up, it will finish below $20 million.

After awful drops, Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga finally eased a little bit. It dipped 37% and earned $2.6 million. That takes its domestic total to a meager $63.3 million.

The Fall Guy eased 37% this weekend, grossing $1.6 million. That takes its domestic total to $88 million.

In ninth place, The Strangers: Chapter 1 collapsed 58% and added $759,039 this weekend. That takes its domestic total to $33.8 million, making it the highest grossing horror title of the year so far. Yeah, the bar is really that bad.

Rounding up the Top Ten was Fathom Events' re-release of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. It made $632,910 on Saturday, taking the lifetime gross to $318.6 million.

OVERSEAS

Inside Out 2 killed it overseas, debuting with a colossal $294 million worldwide, the biggest debut of the year. The craziest part, however, is that when using current exchange rates and in like-for-like markets, the numbers were bigger than The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Yes, it's really that big.

The biggest market was Mexico, where the film opened to a monumental $30.2 million, almost outgrossing the original's entire run ($31.1 million). That's one of the country's biggest ever debuts, behind Spider-Man: No Way Home ($33.3 million), Avengers: Endgame ($31.9 million), and The Super Mario Bros. Movie ($30.8 million). It should be clarified that the films had different opening days; Inside Out 2 and Spider-Man opened on a Thursday, Endgame on a Friday, and Mario on Wednesday. The dollar figure was pretty hurt by recent exchange rate fluctuation in the past weeks, which means Inside Out 2 had more people than Mario despite having one less day. All these films ended with at least $77 million in the market, and it looks like Inside Out 2 will join them, assuming it's not impacted by Despicable Me 4.

Across the world, the film had fantastic debuts in Korea ($14.9M), UK ($13.9M), Germany ($8.1M), Philippines ($6.7M), Central America ($6.3M), Australia ($6.1M), Argentina ($5.5M), Colombia ($5.1M) and Chile ($4.6M). And that's in just 38 markets. It will open in more big markets like France, Italy, Spain, China and Brazil this weekend, and it will reach its final market, Japan, in August. For now, something is clear: $1 billion is absolutely happening, and even that's pessimistic.

Bad Boys: Ride or Die eased just 38% and added $30.8 million this weekend, taking its worldwide total to $215 million. Japan and China are coming up.

The Garfield Movie added $7 million overseas, and its worldwide total is now $217 million.

Furiosa continues losing steam, now earning just $5 million overseas for a $160 million worldwide run.

MOVIES THAT ENDED THEIR RUN THIS WEEK

Movie Release Date Studio Domestic Opening Domestic Total Worldwide Total Budget
Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire Mar/22 Sony $45,004,673 $113,155,527 $200,757,594 $100M
  • Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire has closed its mediocre run with $200 million worldwide. A disappointing figure; Sony increased the budget and it wound up with the lowest grossing Ghostbusters film. Adding into its weak numbers, it also received mixed reviews and word-of-mouth. It's unclear how Sony moves forward with the franchise, but it's clear nothing is ever passing the original's worldwide total ($296 million), even after 40 years of inflation.

THIS WEEKEND

Three newcomers are here, but none stand a chance at taking the top spot from Inside Out 2.

The first is Focus Features' The Bikeriders, the new film by Jeff Nichols. The film stars Jodie Comer, Austin Butler, Tom Hardy, Michael Shannon, Mike Faist, and Norman Reedus, and follows the lives of the Outlaws MC, a motorcycle club founded in McCook, Illinois. 20th Century Studios was originally the distributor and planned to release it in December 2023, but New Regency later shopped it and sold it to Focus. It has great reviews, although it will be tough to recover its $40 million budget.

The other is Vertical's new horror film The Exorcism, which stars Russell Crowe (no connection to The Pope's Exorcist) as a trouble actor facing supernatural events while shooting a film. Possible sleeper hit?

There's another release, but the distribution plans are unclear as of right now. That one is Searchlight's Kinds of Kindness, the new film by Yorgos Lanthimos. The film stars Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer, and follows three distinct but loosely connected stories. Lanthimos and Stone have hit box office gold, with their collaborations making $95 million and $117 million worldwide. But don't expect a Poor Things run here; the film runs longer, anthology films aren't popular, and reviews are good but not excellent like that film.

I'm obsessed with the poo scene from deagh stranding -UNR

https://ift.tt/gvJ61HQ

The act of defecation plays a large part in the story, and I’m still recovering from how it’s portrayed in the game. For every person who argues that this is what gaming can be, or maybe what it should be, I have to say the following thing: “OK, but also you make grenades by taking a dump behind an advertisement for a Norman Reedus show on AMC.”

Before I continue, I want you to witness the act itself. I’m also going to bring up the fact that sometimes when you poop the controller seems to rumble in a way that indicates the character is gassy.

Whether this is a thing that actually happens is a popular topic of debate in our offices, which is another surreal detail that makes me feel more hunted and alone than the game itself. Am I the only one who feels the controller farts? How do I know what is real, and what is illusion? Am I truly alone when I poop, or are there cameras in the bathroom that superimpose a Polygon pop-up ad over my body while I’m doing my business?

I don’t want to think about any of this, but here we are. So take a quick look and we’ll jump back into things.

The fact that this is included at all is baffling, and it’s made even weirder that pooping is given so much mechanical justification. This is how you make grenades! If you don’t poop, you won’t have grenades! You can pee in the wild, but you certainly can’t poop anywhere but this room.

RELATED

Death Stranding is a terrible story, but a wonderful puzzle I would have loved to have been in the room when this whole thing was pitched to the team or, more likely, explained to them. “You see,” I imagine Kojima saying, choosing his words carefully, “we all poop. Everyone poops. And everyone watches Ride on AMC. This is the most relatable aspect of the entire game. It’s like fighting over who pays the check when you take Geoff Keighley out for sushi; it’s something we have all struggled with in our time.”

And then everyone nods.

Did AMC reach out to Sony about the ad, or is this Sony asked AMC about? Did anyone have the heart to explain why it’s rare to have immersion-shattering ads for shows that shouldn’t exist in the game’s world due to the inclusion of the actor playing the lead role in both the game and the show, or did Kojima just rubber-stamp the entire thing so quickly no one could raise an objection? I looked up the show itself, then watched a trailer for the episode with Marilyn Manson, and it only raised further questions.

Norman Reedus and Marilyn Manson order their spicy chicken “medium,” in this scene from the AMC show Ride They’re ordering spicy chicken, by the way. Which means both of them will be looking at an ad for Ride sooner, rather than later, if you know what I mean. AMC I can’t even talk to anyone outside of the world of gaming about the existential dread this whole situation makes me feel, but it’s too hard to explain. “True gamers love meaning and art, and this is the most meaningful, artistic game ever, which is why you poop behind an ad for your own show about motorcycles,” one might say to a dinner guest who would be right to get up and leave.

It’s assumed that Kojima is in almost complete control of his games, and this focus on defecation is definitely part of a larger theme. Who could forget Johnny Sasaki’s bowel problems in Metal Gear Solid? Or D-Horse’s tactical poop in Metal Gear Solid 5? Whatever Kojima is trying to say about the importance of poo, he’s been trying to say it for quite some time.

Death Stranding, like Mr. Porter’s latest grenade, is out now.

If There Was a Rumor of a Possible Red Dead Redemption Series, who would you cast?-UNR

https://ift.tt/40E9cvH

1) Roger Clark (Voice Actor of Arthur Morgan) as Arthur Morgan - Personally I find him to look a lot like his personal character, and with maybe a small weight transformation he would do perfect.

2) Norman Reedus as John Marston - Looks a lot like him, only concern would be matching John’s voice.

3) Dutch - Josh Brolin - I think Brolin looks just like him in some pictures

4) Tony Dalton as Reverend Swanson - Near lookalikes to me

5) Peter Bolmquist (voice actor) as Micah Bell - just makes sense to me

6) Curzon DoBell (voice actor) as Hosea Matthews - looks just like his character so it makes perfect sense

7) Alex McKenna (voice actor) as Sadie Adler - Looks enough like her and would make sense

8) Michael Greyeyes as Charles Smith - looks very alike to Charles

These were just some that I personally thought would be spot on. Of course I’m missing some crucial characters such as Josiah, Bill, Lenny, etc. But i’m sure they’re a lot of actors that could pull them off. Let me know your thoughts and your personal casts!

La seconda stagione di The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon ha finalmente una data d'uscita! Ecco quando arriverà il primo episodio

Passato ormai questo breve periodo di disintossicazione, siamo pronti a rituffarci nel mondo post-apocalittico di The Walking Dead: quello su Daryl Dixon è senz'altro uno degli spin-off dello show principale più coinvolgenti per i fan, che ovviamente non vedono l'ora di poter mettere le mani suoi nuovi episodi della serie con Norman Reedus.

Do you think Matt will become a larger part of the MCU if Born Again does well?-UNR

https://ift.tt/dqNMTiE

Forgive me if this conversation has been beat to death, but with the new Loungefly collection, my husband picked my brain with a really good question: Will Daredevil be an important piece of the MCU? Cautiously, I think Born Again is going to be good, and with so many "street level" stories coming out lately, (DD:BA, Moon Knight, Ms. Marvel, FATWS, Captain America: Brave New World, Echo, etc.) it makes me wonder if he'll join a team in the future, or if they'll bring back the Defenders as a team.

I definitely think that bringing back the Defenders as a team is a possibility, as they added Echo under "The Defenders" on D+, I feel as if this may be a tease for what's to come.

I also would really like if he joined the Midnight Sons. I'd love a lineup of Dr. Strange, Daredevil, Moon Knight, Blade and Ghost Rider (with Norman Reedus). I feel like they could make a TV show out of that and it would work, I feel like it'd be too much for a movie unless they broke it into parts.

Red Dead Redemption (2) Series (for HBO Max)-UNR

https://ift.tt/dqNMTiE

Not gonna get into the major specifics, just the cast, and before anyone says anything, I'm gonna bring up one thing:

NO, NORMAN REEDUS IS NOT JOHN MARSTON!!!!

https://www.wrestlezone.com/news/1477931-saweetie-diplo-the-walking-deads-steven-yeun-in-attendance-at-sukeban-los-angeles

First of all, they posted the show on youtube today and it's really good. Sareee vs Maya Yukihi was great. https://youtu.be/5eBkvASiRxA?si=0hFcqYi3xPaIiAjx

No amount of "fashion connections" is causing all these people to show up for a wrestling show. There is something building on a cultural level that's really causing Hollywood types to take notice of Sukeban. And wrestling types...Nick Khan and Moxley were there too.

Maybe we're underestimating this thing. Seems like it came out of nowhere.

Full list of celebs in the Wrestlezone article:

Saweetie
Diplo

My mom has some walking dead merchandise signed by norman reedus and some other screen used props, any ideas on where to sell them?-UNR

https://ift.tt/K4rVdWF

My mom passed away recently from cancer, and I'm trying to figure out how to sell some of her stuff. She had a ton of movie props from the boon docks & the walking dead because she was a huge fan of Norman Reedus.

Shes got tons of stuff that was on screen within the movie, and I believe she even has a couple of normal reedus autographs as well as she did some favors for him and he gifted her some stuff for being a loyal fan.

I hate to sell the stuff, but I have no use for it. But if anyones interested I can go through the collection later and sell through dms as well if interested.
