Falling Down

So some faggot at rotten tomatoes just spent 1800+ words shitting all over this classic.

editorial.rottentomatoes.com/article/1993s-falling-down-is-an-eerie-reflection-of-modern-americas-persecution-complex/

White guilt, nu male faggotry, Trump bashing... this shit piece has it all.

>"...may be the most privileged man alive"

Rapidly closed the page after that.

I actually only recently learned how nearly every single movie critic is a SJW/progressive.

>nearly every single movie critic is a SJW/progressive

Why is that?

what if jews just have autism

Not just autism Im afraid.

Fucking loved this movie as a kid, I oughtta watch it again

Didn't read the article but thanks for reminding me of this, OP

Because real intellectuals dont bother spending that much time with (((media))).

>watching a movie Released over 20 years ago
>getting this assblasted over it

Fuck them. Falling Down is a brilliant fucking movie with a based fucking character that literally embodies what I feel like every fucking day over the nigger riots, political correctness, collective autism of our society and the shit tier state of our country.

>I'm the bad guy?

This is hilarious, the SJW's are so deep in their fucking delusion they don't realize their shit is the exact reason why Michael Douglas's character went postal in that movie. His wife having a shit fit ruined him and forced him to move back in with his mother, gangbangers try to intimidate him and then mug him because he was "on der turff", filthy vietnamese store owner tries to price gouge him, jews attack him with a golf ball because he didn't let them have their way.

Douglas's character didn't harm a single person who didn't deserve it, and even went out of his way to not hurt people he saw as innocent. He was tired of the corruption and persecution he received for being nothing more than a white fucking male.

Lol OP, if you only knew how bad things really are

Thanks. My next choice for our family movie night

Loved that movie. I would only change the stupid rocket launcher seen... that was just too much. Everything else was good though.

Scene I meant...

Thing is, D-Fens isn't a racist. So he would not like Cred Forums at all.

>Douglas's character is the bad guy... no one sympathises with him, no one thinks he's in the right.

Did Reddit even understand this movie? It's full wish fulfilment. He doesn't go mental on innocent people like Columbine autists; he's just a regular guy sick of shitty society.

Incredible post.

I always saw Falling Down as the story of a guy who'd fit perfectly into 1950's America trying to do everything he does in modern America (or at least, early 90's America).

Like fuck me, he just wants to live his life and make money like he was taught to as a kid, he doesn't need cholos harassing him or people not giving him his fucking order at McDonalds.

How is this politics?

Why do you care what some nu-male thinks about a film thats decades old
You're acting like sjw getting triggered

See also, Harry Brown.

That film, predicably, had it's "PRIVILEGED WHITE MALE KILLS CHILDREN BECAUSE THEY'RE POOR" critics.

Or WhammyBurger, as it is.

he was also villainized at every moment, and couldn't fathom it himself

The author seems to transfixed on white men. I think he needs help.

guy just wanted to sit down and relax why did spics try to rob him

what was wrong with America 23 years ago and how much worse is it now

The best part is after reading the script Michael Douglas considered it the best script he'd ever read and looking back he describes it as his most favorite movie to have been cast in.

Red Letter Media

Not really. D-Fens frustration isn't unjustified, but as the cop points out at the end of the movie, everybody else has to deal with it too. But D-Fens is the only one who snaps and starts taking it out on his environment in violent and destructive acts - always worse than the violence done against him. Blowing up a bridge because you don't like traffic or bludgeoning a store owner because you think their prices are too high aren't appropriate reactions: D-Fens is by far the least considerate character in the movie. Ofcourse, he isn't a rational actor for most of the story after he starts losing it in the traffic jam. He's sympathetic in that we share his frustrations and his violent reaction to them is in part wish fullfillment, but ultimately he isn't 'right' about anything.

youtube.com/watch?v=YGjfO7iML5s

Recently watched it 4 weeks ago. The thrift store "Stomping Faggots" scene made me fall in love with this film.
The GTA progression of weapons is fucking genius starting out with a baseball bat and ending with a fucking rocket launcher.
The ending with him realizing he was a fucking asshole was kinda eh. Was hoping his wife really was a crazy bitch who kept his kid from him as the film lead everyone to believe.

Thankfully the comments are resuscitating me from this fucking rage inducing article. SJWs just have to taint and deface every good thing their bullshit. If the next few decades of my life are going to be dominated by having to listen to hyper-sensitive, anally retentive little cucks rip everything I've ever held dear to shreds, I'm going make as many people uncomfortable with my triggering opinions as I can.

Pretty much describes his character. Although they try to make him out to be the bad guy in the end, it doesn't feel right

Everything in the movie could have been avoided if his cunt of a wife would have just let him visit his daughter

Spics and nigs. No we just have more of them than white people. Economy tanked. Then throw muslims in by the millions and thats America today.

he was unstable and abusive even though he had never hit anyone

>D-Fens can take a bold moral stand and say that, yes, while he may be racist
>he may be racist

How? when? Theres something I miss?

If I remember right the wife said he was abusive to the police, and when they asked her how he was abusive she couldnt think of any examples.

Can't really compare. And even if you can destroy skyscrapers without any collateral damage, what says that the data centers went down too?

>dat rich laugh as plane #2 hits

Have you actually seen the movie? D-Fens is acting out to the most logical extreme when all other solutions have failed. All he wanted was change for the phone, the store owner practically said "fuck you" and then when the argument broke out he tried to brain D-Fens with a baseball bat, and even then he didn't hurt the store owner. The bridge was being torn apart by work crews trying to justify their city work budget so it wouldn't get cut the next year, so he gave them a real reason to fix it instead of just inconveniencing an entire city to line their pockets. There isn't a "right" or "wrong" side in this movie in regards to D-Fens versus the detective. The detective chose the path that has the least amount of bloodshed now, but allows everything that is wrong with society continue, D-Fens takes the route of standing against it because in his eyes it can't continue.

The thing about Falling Down is that it was intended by jewish faggot (((joel schumacher))) to be a lampooning of conservative white america. He so desperately wanted people to think that D-FENS was legitimately a bad guy.

Personally I have NEVER met a single (white) person who did not sympathize and identify with D-FENS.

The whole "reveal" toward the end that he was actually a crazy creepy psycho stalker the entire time was obviously just shoehorned in there to make people not like him, but it's such an obvious cover up. You can just hear Schumacher saying "oh shit, I made this guy too likeable with whites, I better make him a mustache-twirling villain!"

Falling Down is literally Cred Forums: The Movie

checked for truth

>pic related is the guy who wrote the article.

Depraved leftist, this is a cinematic gem! Which I am watching this weekend, now. Thanks for the suggestion!

So he's a faggot in real life too

>Nathan Rabin
>"Rabin'...book uses novels such as The Great Gatsby, musical recordings such as The Charm of the Highway Strip by The Magnetic Fields and other pop culture items as a springboard to discuss its author's tragi-comic adolescence as a guest of a mental hospital, a foster family whose patience and generosity he jokes "knew only strict, unyielding boundaries" and the Jewish Children's Bureau group home system, as well as his career with The A.V. Club
>Jewish children's bureau

"Us white people, amIright?"

The clerk grabbed a bat and D-Fens wrestled it from him. He bludgeoned some of the store's goods though after he learns how highly priced everything is.

The LAW was a negligent discharge into an underground water pipeline.

Of course it is.

WHY ARE IS ALWAYS A SMUG LOOKING FAGGOT..... Ugh, guys who cant lift a gallon of milk have to write stupid articles it seems.

They have never known real victory, so when they think they win at something they act smug about it instead of knowing the true elation of triumph.

>Blowing up a bridge because you don't like traffic or bludgeoning a store owner because you think their prices are too high aren't appropriate reactions

He didn't bludgeon the store owner because he thought his prices were too high. He smashed his merchandise after the store owner hypocritically called him a thief. He then paid for his soda and left.
Blowing up the bridge wasn't due to traffic, it was objecting to beaurocratic bullshit where government agencies will say there's a problem with something, even when there isn't, so they justify their existence and inflated budgets.

>life in the 90's got ya down?

Life in the mid 2010's got me down, Don.

Fuck this eunuch and the horse he rode in on.

That's not what the movie is about in the slightest. In fact, the movie makes fun of people like you in three different scenes.

>the gunshop owner scene alone

No, real intellectuals have other shit going on as well but still make time to enjoy and write up multi-page breakdowns of film, but most professional movie "critics" are just critics and nothing else.

>conveniently leaves out gunstore owner

Guess we know who you relate to the most.
ITT: People who didn't understand the movie.

Douglas' character is not a regular guy who has had enough of "society". He's mentally unstable. His wife was able to prove that he was mentally unstable and was able to put a restraining order on him. You see throughout the film that he has severe anger issues that he is trying to repress. The film is about mental illness. You see how everyday occurrences (aside from the gangbangers and the gunshop owner) just build up on people, and you see how people finally reach that point where they go on a killing spree. It is not until someone confronts him and derails his logic that Douglas' character is finally able to see how sick he is, realizes what he was about to do to his family, and commits suicide by cop.

The whole movie is supposed to make you relate to Douglas' character, then help you understand that you need to curb that shit, because when you don't, you hurt those closest to you.

Figures that Cred Forums would only give a shit about the "gooks" and "nigger" scenes. None of you even mentioned the batshit racist gunshop owner tying him up. That gunshop owner? That's you faggots.

> that McDonalds scene

One of the best movies of all time. I'd pistol whip the "critic" if I could.

Joel Schumacher is a NYC Jew. I suspect Ebbe Roe Smith, the writer, is a Jew. Nathan Rabin is a Chicago Jew. He states the director and writer are "white men".

What a limp wristed post.

I don't disagree, but do you disagree with the SJW writer's assessment of the character, as well? To say Douglas is some privileged white man who's not appreciating what he's got seems like a much more egregious misinterpretation of him than the user's.

I bet you weren't even alive when the film was made.

Off yourself.

don't forget about michael douglas.

I don't think you fully understand the movie as much as you'd like to think you do, friend.
>Figures that Cred Forums would only give a shit about the "gooks" and "nigger" scenes. None of you even mentioned the batshit racist gunshop owner tying him up. That gunshop owner? That's you faggots.
Why are you here?

Tone deaf and histrionic, wew lad. Clearly the movie was never meant to portray Douglas' character as a hero. What a cuck.

Nobody mentions the milsurp store owner because it was objectively the most boring and least organic scene in the movie. His wife got a restraining order? What the fuck does that prove? She couldn't even tell the cops an instance of him being violent, and if there was proof of him being violent it would have already been documented during the process of getting the restraining order. The only instance we see of him being "an abusive husband" is when he is watching a home movie of his daughters birthday where he just wanted 5 seconds of film with his daughter on a rocking horse and his wife was arguing with him.

Even at the end of the movie he was mocking the entire situation, referring to the cop as the "good sheriff" and him as the "villain" just like in the old western movies. He chose suicide by cop because he would rather his daughter get the insurance money for his death instead of watching her grow up from behind bars.

Then again I know why you jumped all over the milsurp store scene, because you identify with the faggots.

This isn't *entirely* correct.

The reason it drew criticism, just like Fight Club, is that the film attempts to have it's cake and eat it too.

They throw in a few scenes and Duvall's rebuttal at the end to negate the actions of Douglas, just as the last 1/4 of Fight Club is taken up by Norton's character trying to disarm what he has started and get a qt gf.

But that's not what struck a chord with audiences. I'm not even saying the intention of the writer was to strike that chord, but it's the;

>What's the difference between pretending to be an idiot and being an idiot?

Conundrum.

You see this with films like American History X too - The anti-racist message of the film was muddled and insincere, and the racist moments weren't. So that's what stuck.

In Falling Down it's even more muddled, as there is no rebuttal beyond "Yes, you're right, but everyone else is taking it in the ass without complaint, so please just don't make waves".

>guy has a giant fucking breakdown because his life was ruined

Theres a certain level of retardation I've become used to from these types of people but this takes the cake.

>Yet Douglas’ status as the cocky, smirking embodiment of white male privilege

>(((Danielovitch)))
oy vey white privilege is codeword for Jewish privilege, delet

How fucking out of touch with reality someone must be to write a review like that.

this is how Jewish these fags are

>mans life slowly falls apart as everything he loves is stripped from him and he is humiliated by circumstances out of his control
>He's privileged

so whats this guy's point? anybody who claims to restore a country to its former greatness is hitler?

Humans desire freedom.

Society limits freedom.

Even the most Liberty-focused social order generates frustration.

Over time, frustration rises, not only within the life of one person, but across generations.

Blame is placed by the frustrated individual: the target of blame is always a cipher, a distraction from the true source of frustration. The leadership and the hidden hand are responsible for all ills. They know this, and having seen ten thousand violent and bloody revolutions, the elite encourage the production of art and media as mechanisms of emotional and intellectual resistance.

Art and media do not kill the elite. They distract those who would otherwise butcher and burn their masters. Subversive media subverts nothing, because it actually serves the state and reinforces the power structure. Subversive media is not an agent of change; it prevents change.

This movie and Fight Club and about a million other pieces throughout history exist only as a way to channel and defuse aggression and frustration.

What we really need is something very different, very real, very final. Real change requires that we not be distracted. Real change always depends upon finding the proper targets of rage and frustration.

It's not the Blacks.

It's not the Jews.

It's not the Mexicans.

It's not the Muslims.

No ethnic group is the hidden hand. And that hand is not all that hidden, if you are smart enough to see through the magic of the illusionists that the elite employ.

I always saw D-Fens (William Foster) as a man who was hopelessly out of line with society as it progressed. He was stuck in the idyllic perception of 1950's Golden age of the United States, and he sees his dream life falling apart around him, facing the reality of the times, he can't fathom that the era he idolized as a boy and a man has long since mutated into something significantly different, and frightening.

With no alternatives, and facing the reality that he may not see his daughter again, he feels compelled to correct his worldview to soften the blow of the loss of his family.

Instead of actually garnering any respect or admiration for his attempts, he's chastised and lambasted multiple times as a psychopath, a white supremacist sympathizer, a "Thief" and a trespasser- a far cry from the free reign he remembered years before.

In the end, Foster isn't a bad guy, but even his perception as reasonable escalation of situations can be considered eccentric, at best.

Unfortunately, instead of being convinced by Prendergast that he needs help, he decides that he's unwilling to change for society, and chooses to commit suicide-by-cop.

...

pretty much

>Caring about the words of a violent rapist

This so much, and it never was about race he identifies himself with the black guy protesting in front of the bank, and did not harm the black family at the plastic surgeon mansion, and even protest and defends fags and blacks at the neo-nazi gun store owner!

How can someone be so buttblasted frustrated and brainwashed to write a sjw rant over a 20 year old movie??

Kirk Douglas raped someone?

Op is Nathine Rabine, aithor of the article.

so now it comes full circle.

>the gunshop owner, the gunshop owner, the gunshop owner

Yeah that entire scene really puts everything into perspective.

First of all everyone on Cred Forums who calls themselves nationalist, national socialist, etc knows they are above unorganized degenerate skinheads and want nothing to with them. Just because you oppose race mixing, ethnic egalitarianism, homosexuals, doesn't mean you're some kind of dumb skin head, you're simply against contemporary liberal rebranding of morals.

Secondly how was the wife able to prove he was mentally ill? He had outbursts of violence but there was a whole scene where the cop interviewed his mother and it was revealed that he's pissed off because he was fired from his Job as a missile designer. His wife divorced him over being royally pissed off about it. It seems like you''ve got something against Cred Forums liking this film and relating to it and are spouting bullshit. In both the interviews with Michael Douglas and on the back cover of the DVD box mental illness is never mentioned. Douglas himself even says its about a guy who's from a different time and is upset that he lost his job and wants to go back to how everything used to be.

Interview to further fuel your asshurt.

You forgot the Mexican gangbanger he pops in the leg, not a kill, but he's making a point.

True, also the Latina detective he wounds near the end.

He should bash his Batman & Robin, Mr. Freeze also had some snow privilege

Checking

sometimes I feel like the movie Jud Süß was the most accurate depiction of a kike ever done

Yeah, so there's no real racial bias, just people that were in his way, however the gangbanger seemed more personal, like he wanted the guy to suffer, and that scene, when I first watched it, made me really wanna know what was in his head. All in all, he's just tired of being lied to.

Except DFENS dude btfos that guy. That guy is the extreme stormfront ideological end that is co-opting the protag's struggle.

Dude is fixated on the fact that many of the antagonists in the movie are not white men but ironically that is a pretty accurate portrayal of the type of people most likely to fit those roles in urban America. Being factually correct and not flattering somehow implies this movie is inherently racist, misogynist, blah blah blah.

>Nobody mentions the milsurp store owner because it was objectively the most boring and least organic scene in the movie.
Really? I tink that it's a key scene. Just because the store owner agrees with D-Fens on a lot of points isn't the same thing that D-Fens *should* blame everything on the jews, nor that he wants a stormfaggot uprising.

Hmm it would seem most people disagree with this assblasted kike.

>Nathan Rabin

To be fair, they didnt know he had a rocket launcher, the kids thought it was part of a movie and most people probably thought it was a gas accident considering they were working on gas pipes

>Why are you here?
well record needs correcting senpai

D-Fens was one of the biggest bitch niggas in all of cinema.

I could break his entire body with one punch, he doesn't even have shoulders.

This.

Everything stemmed from her perception that he might, and her actions surrounding that perception started the avalanche of circumstances under which he finally snapped.

It struck me when I first saw it as a glimpse into what can happen when a good man gets pushed beyond his limit. As he bumbles his way into bigger and bigger displays of rage, he somehow follows a logical descent until the climactic scene in which he himself is perplexed at how he turned into someone who would do what he did.

Great film. A truely unappreciated gem.

He just wanted to go home.

This isn't autism, autism is more like what Asians have. This is a clear agenda.

This bullshit just reminded me to rewatch Falling Down.

>SJWs talking about other people having persecution complexes

Because critics don't create, they only tear down the work of others. Critics are disgusting.
A (_____) aficionado is different. They learn to appreciate the nuance of their chosen food, movie, dildo, whatever.
A small, but very important difference

Nu males all have the same generic look.

Shit. His glasses are pretty similar to mine. Although I can grow a full beard and I am not balding yet at 32 years old (knock on wood).

This movie makes an excellent point, really.

The main character has no ideology, has no friends, has no connections.

All he has is a work ethic and a "family man urge," both frustrated by the SJW-izing of society, symbolized by his loss of work as a defense contractor and his wife leaving him as he becomes more desperate.

At one point, a neo-Nazi tries to recruit him, and he refuses and ends up killing the neo-Nazi.

That part was not thrown in there to PC-ify the movie or make it easier for us to identifty with him. That bit was making an important point: neo-Nazis are loudmouthed fuckheads who can't help but attention whore, making them easy to watch and control, but people like the main character--competent, angry, educated, smart and adrift--are, in fact, MORE dangerous than neo-Nazis, because they are not looking for an ideology and are not "joiners." They are looking for a way to CONTRIBUTE to the society they worked to build and strengthen and defend.

When the rug of normalcy and decency is pulled far enough and fast enough out from under normal, hard-working people like Douglas' character, watch the fuck out...

The movie is a warning, whether it meant to be or not.

Nice chest development. What an ((((((((((((intellect))))))))))))))).

Get contact lenses mate

>The whole "reveal" toward the end that he was actually a crazy creepy psycho stalker
You really need to rewatch Falling Down, as that never happened.

If I may, I'd like to explore why the nu-male was so triggered by this film. Not the surface reasons (Trump, privilege, racism blah blah) the REAL reason.

Fear. The SJW is terrified of the potential of white American men to respond violently. They know that should that happen on any kind of scale there would be no containing it. If white America decided they want the 50's back it would come, and all the whiny think pieces in the world wouldn't stop it.

At the very base, they are helpless against the people they despise. Watching this film triggered (if you will) that part of this individual's consciousness and voilà! A hysterical rant about a movie that came out decades ago.

I am not a racist, and actually enjoy living in multicultural Canada, but America is different. The rain CAN fall there, and this little wretch knows it.

Literally "I'm either the nicest guy you'll ever meet || or a TWISTED FUCKING PSYCHOPATH" the movie. I shouldn't be surprised Cred Forums idolizes it.

Every time.

Goddamnit. I'm 32, receding and wear glasses. By the time I'm 35, possibly earlier, I'll almost certainly have to shave all over like this lest I look like a combover cuck. I really don't want to look like these faggots though. What can I do to avoid looking like an atypical bald numale?

Think about it.

>imdb

imdb's demographic is 13 - 21 year old males and teenage girls.

It is trash.

I just got some recently and I don't care for them. I don't see as well with them and have had many checkups for fittings.

Planning on going the Lasik route fairly soon.

Wizzard is ok
he made lots of "sexist" and "problematic" jokes in the past,

if he is a faggot online , that is his problem,

In the show is is just a a faggot as everyone else

Falling Down is based as fuck. I actually really enjoy Joel Schumacher's films. He has made some really bad ass movies.

Check out 8mm and Phone Booth. These three films are my Schumacher trilogy. So sad people only think of his shitty Batman movies when his name is mentioned.

>when the argument broke out he tried to brain D-Fens with a baseball bat

he told D-Fens to leave several times and he refused. When you don't leave PRIVATE PROPERTY when you are told to by the owner then guess what? You are breaking the law and he has every right to evict you with force. I don't know how you guys are trying to justify what he did.

Get a headblade and keep it smooth. Then start working your ass out so you got the muscle to back up the bullet that has become your dome.

What the fuck was wrong with Hannibal?

He ultimately lost and Carthage and his likeness was subsequently eradicated and almost erased from history but so what? Lots of people lost to the Romans and he gave it a better crack than anyone before.

Besides, him thinking of himself as a modern Hannibal doesn't offer any strong refutation on why Patton's observations aren't valid. He was on their side. His opinions are an honest and unbiased viewpoint that was enforced by first hand observation and interaction.

This is the best description of the movie. DFENS is both the hero and the villain. He's not flexible enough to progress, but he's not an evil person either. If anything, DFENS is the best form of True Neutral.

He told him once, and D-Fens wasn't doing anything to warrant being evicted. If a faggot can demand a wedding cake then a white male can at least demand a coke.

Longer beard.
Muscles.
Sunglasses.

No, he told him more than once (not that it fucking matters I tell you to gtfo my property and you move your fucking ass or I have every right to destroy you) and the final time D-Fens said "No, I stay, what do you think of that?" and that's when the store owner went for the bat. D-Fens was abso-fucking-lutely in the wrong.

Your store isn't your own personal property, even if you own it. The US courts already set that precedent :3. Unless of course you are saying he has that right based solely on the premise that D-Fens is white, but that would also justify D-Fens

A store is private property and the store owner has the right to ban anyone for any reason as long as it's not based on bias against federally protected classes. D-Fens was a trouble maker and you know it but if he was some fucking nigger and the Korean store owner was white I doubt you would be disagreeing with me. fuck off with your double standards.

BTW, gays aren't a federally protected group under federal civil rights laws. Sorry you get so mad over being wrong mate.

thailand, this movie takes place in america. AMERICA.

To me it's weird people think there's a white supremacy vibe in this film. The three characters he gets along best with are the two black kids and the black dude protesting at the bank. Fuck, the black dude at the bank was the character he most identified with and the one who was his parallel in the story.

It was a great movie. I remember watching it as a kid and feeling unsettled. I miss movies like this today. Art is dead.

Who said we think the movie had anything to do with white supremacy?

wrong about fucking what? what are you even getting at and what does this have to do with D-Fens? This is not a simillar fucking circumstance. D-Fens was the one who refused to pay for the product because of the cost. The store owner told him to fuck off if he didn't like the price. D-Fens bitched and moaned and then refused to leave. D-Fens was in the wrong. What the fuck does this have to do with gay cakes and religion? Sorry that your dumbass double standards can't admit that D-Fens was being a total fucking nigger and deserved to get his ass beat.

Also how are gays not a federally protected class when they are covered under hate crime laws?

It was mentioned a couple times earlier in the thread. I actually think D-FENS is pretty based because he's cool with the black people in the movie and he's disgusted by the nazi faggot hating guy at the movie.

critics want people to feel bad about something and are autistic anough to watch things they hate.
Aficionadoes want you to feel good and are at least mature enough to not bother with uninteresting shit.
