These two our going to be working together a lot. They're going to have the Director an Actor bond & relationship. Like Leonardo DiCaprio & Martin Scorsese Russell Crowe & Ridley Scott Johnny Depp & Tim Burton
I like the thing that Rian Johnson says that he wanted the movie to be a ride not an intricated thing, and watching it with the feeling you're solving puzzles.. And he's right, I loved how well the story went and I didn't feel all confused as when I watched The Dark Knight Rises, which sucked because it was too messy and with too many characters in the it. So Looper had it all, great cast, flawless story, great acting and the way this film was directed was just so damn awesome..
That's true, and totally your opinion...Although personally, I felt something was missing when I was watching this film..It was definately an entertaining film but in terms of the story arch, i can't explain why, but somewhere along the film something went dry..I think maybe I just expected too much out of it.
As a filmmaker myself these interviews are so interesting and inspiring. To hear a major director say that the struggles of making a feature film defined his 20s (as someone in my 20s) is a huge motivation. But seriously -- shoot two cameras if you want singles! :D
They keep telling during the movie that time travel is complicated, tricky, fries your brain.. So that's all you need to know; ofcourse there are flaws regarding the time travel, we still don't know much about it.. The main thing I meant to say is that this is a light movie but at the same time has powerful content, meanwhile Nolan's TDKR is too damn intricated.. Every Nolan's film has to be watched 2 or more times to fully understand them..
so true. There are plenty of times when I've met a girl with an over-sized rack and there's not much else there, same with movies, usually the over-sized box office movies leave me a little uninterested like Harry Potter films or Pirates films.
I dont want Jospeh Gordon Levitt in starwars ep8! Abrams did that with Pegg but he atleast had the decency to cover him up in alien prosthetic get up. If Pegg has to be in this movie, make him a cgi Ratakan.
Yishai Thau Nothing, AS LONG AS the director uses good prosthetic to cover up that actor. Starwars is unqiue in that its purely about the characters, and the worlds. If they go casting huge actors in particular roiles, they will always distract away from the main characters. Also having big-name actors in main roles in a Starwars movie, affects the fans/audience cause then they are more focused on the particular actor, than the actual "character" they are playing. Big name actors can help imemsly dont get me wrong, ONLY! when they are cast in support roles, smaller co-starring roles. Sam Jackson as Mace, Cushing and Guiness as Tarkin and Obi Wan. Same with out latest established A-List actors, Mendelson, Whitaker and Donnie Yen in their awesome roles in Rogue One. Fans were not saying their names but actually remembering them for their "characters". That is most important. If someone like Gordon Levit (hes a decent actor) was cast in episode 8, just wouldnt work cause him being close to Nolan, has worked with him on a few of his movies, that then becomes too cynical because it is only then about the fact that director just wants him in Starwars, just for the sake of it, or as a favor to him personally. NOT becausev the director thinks that particular actor can bring something good to a role in that movie. This is why its most important to have the actor, IF he is doing a cameo, covered up, so he is not recognizable. Just like they did with Daniel Craig and Simon (idiot/cynical) Pegg. Starwars doesnt belong to any of the directors, they are only borrowing it, it belongs to the fans. (not even Disney cause they were not there from the begining and they dont love it like, the fans).
Raiken Xion Okay I can see where your coming from. Though I would like to see him in an alien/droid/creature costume making a cameo. That would be fine.
Looper was stupid. Instead of having an elaborate organization back in time, just dump the victim into the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Never find the body. Can even send the poor sob back a few years if they want to. Still no body. Cheaper, too.
I watched it. I payed attention. If they could send the sob to a cornfield, they could have dumped him, plus rocks, in the middle of the pacific - no body. Dump the SOB at any point in time they wanted to - no body no need for the elaborate org in the past - cheap, nobody for the popo to bust - clean, easy. Refute me on the plot points I pointed out.
Show that was an issue in the plot. I don't remember if it was or not (saw it years ago when it first came out.) I do remember they never had that problem.
Could someone please explain to me why Looper is a good movie? It's right up there with 'The Wicker Man' as one of the worst movies I've ever seen. The only aspects of the film I liked was the CGI and the film's aesthetic appeal. The storyline was as ridiculous as the one in Inception and the acting & dialogue was as cheesy as in Avatar. JGL is alright, i like him as a person but he's overrated by the masses.

Thanks for posting, there is FAR too little LOOPER extras avail.
Looper is an absolutely incredible SciFi Noir flick. Beginning to end its perfect.
This movie was the best I've seen since Inception (not counting drama). And that kid was AMAZING. Fantastic casting.
I just watched Looper today because of a comment made of the show Brooklyn 99. I’m so glad. I loved watching this moving from beginning to end.
Actually JGL appears to be a nice guy...and being a nice guy is very important.
the definition of Awesome is actually Joseph Gordon-Levitt
whoever worked the camera in this interview has a solid sense of humor
which I fully mean as a compliment
Thanks for the always great interviews DP/30!
This is an outstanding interview, DP/30. Great job with great subjects.
great long interview, very interesting. love this creative bromance. thanks for sharing.
These two our going to be working together a lot. They're going to have the Director an Actor bond & relationship. Like
Leonardo DiCaprio & Martin Scorsese
Russell Crowe & Ridley Scott
Johnny Depp & Tim Burton
Really great interview, thanks :)
This is my favourite JGL interview
Good watch, watched brick on Netflix dvds in like 07 been my favorite movie since.
Both are so articulate... especially Rian. Really good interview.
I guess Levitt will be in ep 8.
I never thought about that! 😁 a cameo for sure
I don't get it
He was
as soon as I saw the title of this *drops everything and watches*
it's 6am. I don't care, I am watching.
Easily my favorite film of the year. So brilliant. GO SEE IT!
I like the thing that Rian Johnson says that he wanted the movie to be a ride not an intricated thing, and watching it with the feeling you're solving puzzles..

Yeah I totally agree with you. It would be so cool if they made a sequel. I want to see what's going to happen to the rainmaker.
mysterious skin was probably the best film jgl has or will ever be in
Have you seen Brick or Looper?
JGL looks extra fit here :)
That's true, and totally your opinion...Although personally, I felt something was missing when I was watching this film..It was definately an entertaining film but in terms of the story arch, i can't explain why, but somewhere along the film something went dry..I think maybe I just expected too much out of it.
Joe talking about how he likes sin city and then he was in sin city 2
BRICK is awesome and Looper was fantastic so i am excited for his SW movie.....i should check out brothers bloom too! :)
Ethan John Curious, did you enjoy it?
no there were actually some unanswered flaws regarding the layout of time travel, and how certain events in the story could occur because of that....
I just wanted this to keep going.
The bra size analogy is actually very intelligent, I'm most impressed Mr Johnson
As a filmmaker myself these interviews are so interesting and inspiring. To hear a major director say that the struggles of making a feature film defined his 20s (as someone in my 20s) is a huge motivation. But seriously -- shoot two cameras if you want singles! :D
Same.
They're the old days pal.
20:11 whats the quote?
School in am, one more Joe interview. *omg* must watch this one.. 30 mins.. not bad
Stop watching movies, dude.. The acting in this movie was outstanding..
+ Ryan Gosling & Nicolas Winding Refn
They keep telling during the movie that time travel is complicated, tricky, fries your brain..

OH GOD they're cute
21:21 PLAYAH
Joe is such a cutie :)
it's the plaid ;)
Died ... He Is Amaizing :D
You should sleep and come back to thin interview. You need to be fully ready to realise the awesomeness of JGL.
Wouldn't put them in the same bracket just yet...
JGL for Spike Spiegel !!!
it's definitely not leo and marty, it's marty and de niro
I won't!
YEAH SIN CITY WOO!
Yeah that isn't going to happen, didn't you see the ending?
Joseph Gordon-Levitt looks SOO much older in Looper!!! >o
Korina Mota They used prosthetics for him
Damn I noticed that to 😂😂😂
if he learns jeet kune do
OK cool I'm not trying to cause a stir in reply to KajiCarson. Peace!
I dont want Jospeh Gordon Levitt in starwars ep8! Abrams did that with Pegg but he atleast had the decency to cover him up in alien prosthetic get up.
If Pegg has to be in this movie, make him a cgi Ratakan.
Decency? Whats wrong with a cameo?
Yishai Thau Nothing, AS LONG AS the director uses good prosthetic to cover up that actor. Starwars is unqiue in that its purely about the characters, and the worlds. If they go casting huge actors in particular roiles, they will always distract away from the main characters.

Raiken Xion Okay I can see where your coming from. Though I would like to see him in an alien/droid/creature costume making a cameo. That would be fine.
Yishai Thau
Yes indeed, with his voice changed slightly ofcourse Id be up for that.
Raiken Xion “Eeeyup! Those are the shuttle parkers!”
He was obviously joking. Stop causing a stir!
Just a different way to spell Ryan.
JGL HAS a youtube channel : )
/hitrecord
"It's been almost ten years!" LOL Oh Joe, you are hilarious.
yeah I think so! and because it's button downed ;)
JGL should have a youtube channel : )
Troll Alert!!!
Rian Johnson is like really round! He's got the roundest face!!! He's like real live
smiley face! I'm a comedy writer can you tell?
if you think inception sucked you need to get out a little more!
I just saw Brick and it was a complete waste of my life.
***** right on bro!
😂 that movie had been on my list for so long and I was very disappointed as well. Luckily “Knives Out” was fantastic.
Looper was stupid. Instead of having an elaborate organization back in time, just dump the victim into the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Never find the body. Can even send the poor sob back a few years if they want to. Still no body. Cheaper, too.

Show that was an issue in the plot. I don't remember if it was or not (saw it years ago when it first came out.) I do remember they never had that problem.
but they *never* handled the case - They show up in the cornfield, the sob appears, they shoot him. done.
deal with the real plot and its holes.
Could someone please explain to me why Looper is a good movie? It's right up there with 'The Wicker Man' as one of the worst movies I've ever seen.

I thought Rian Johnson was a chick. Isn't that a girls name?
