I liked the premise, but I thought the movie sucked. The beginning of it is alright and the ending of the film also feels alright in a vacuum and feels more thematically aligned with the original short story, but while that ending and the original story feels like it's putting praise on the value of the everyman and how he's special in his own way, a lot of the movie isn't that at all. Mitty spends the whole movie trying to get away from that simple life and pursuing something more exciting with his adventure to find Penn's character while Patton Oswalt tells him how boring he used to seem for just living in his daydreams, and if they wanted to make a story about how you should be out there pursuing your dreams that's fine, but it feels incongruous to me how it's both doing that and then it tries to act like it believes Mitty had some value in him and how he lived his life all along. It makes a big deal of that photo of him just quietly working hard, but it also acts like that lifestyle was something he should be ashamed of with how much it props him up for going on this adventure.
Also, this isn't the end of the world, but I found it weird how it ties to much sentimentality and character into companies, like having what is basically his best friend being a match.com employee and having him have some heart to heart with that girl when he's at some fast food restaurant and then he uses that same restaurant chain to explain his relationship with his father or whatever it was to her. That stuff isn't a big deal, but it stood out to me as a bit weird.
I was looking forward to watching this for a long time and when I finally did I wish I never did.
Shit movie, waaay too much time wasted on shitty imaginary sequences.
How the frick can you consider this a top 3 favorite? That blows my mind honestly.
It was just an excuse for the cast to go on vacation and get paid doing it, it was practically became a travel ad for Iceland at one point.
It's the most midwit movie I can think of, it's something I imagine the lowliest pajeet enjoying as his one movie of the month for that escapism copium but apart from that it has no purpose.
No man, every day is just something I wait to end. I don't know where I'm going anymore. I don't trust myself anymore. I don't think anybody cares, certainly not me.
Hold on anon. Shit sucks but in the future, whether it's 1 day from now or a few years, you'll get something that will change your life, give it meaning, give you happiness. Fight through it until then. Remember this post when you're there, chuckling to yourself.
>Shit sucks but in the future, whether it's 1 day from now or a few years, you'll get something that will change your life, give it meaning, give you happiness. Fight through it until then.
I've lived my life believing this, believing it was going to get better one day. It's not. I'm 40, fat, bald, and bitter. Never held a girl's hand or went on a date. I don't have friends anymore or a job, I live with my mother as an adult. At this point, I'm just waiting for her to die so I can kill myself.
no. my life is comprehensibly pathetic. im over 30 and have no friends, no relationships, no career, live with my parents, dont drive a car, only have a few hobbies, im depressed and miserable and all i think about is suicide. even the few hobbies i do im not exactly happy doing them, they are just more there to distract me and keep my mind occupied and as soon as im done with them im back to being miserable. there is literally no reason for me to live.
i have another week where i will be completely miserable as my pathetic job, and seeing the successful people on the train there and back, then spend my evenings doing my hobbies and questioning why i do this to myself, then the weekend comes and if i dont have my hobby to do, i just do absolutely nothing. luckily yesterday i had a few hours of my hobby, but today i literally just sat in my house the entire day watching football doing jack fricking shit.
basically the only family i have are my parents (rarely see and never talk to small extended family) and even living together we dont even talk much.
what hobbies? i m intrigued
its extremely weird but its sports refereeing. this fall it was a high school sport that plays on weekday evenings. so i leave my house at 8 am to go to my shitty job then leave early and do these games and usually dont get home until 8-9 pm, gone 12+hours a day then get home and basically just eat and show then go to bed. thats where the distraction is good, but i still feel like shit.
that actually sounds kinda fun.
Probably a good way to get some human interaction also? I always appreciated a good ref when I was younger and still playing sports.
yes it gets some human interaction but think of the type of "social interaction" you get as a referee, with people yelling at you all the time. you have to be some sort of mentally ill to "enjoy" doing a hobby where you basically are there to piss people off. most games i do i leave angry.
also have you ever thought about saving for a holiday/
i really have no interest in going on any sort of holiday/vacation. not only would i be going alone, but thinking of the amount of work it would take to set up that stuff in a foreign country fills me with horrible anxiety.
if you're still here, so long as you have a passport already it really isn't so bad, and even then it isn't that difficult.
If you're from a western country it's even easier.
Also going on a holiday alone really is quite fun. Even if it's to just sit somewhere different or watch how other weirdos live their lives.
Don't buy into the normie tourist shit, that is a money/timesink that isn't worth it half the time, but seeing other walks of life and meandering is good for the brain

i went on vacations with my parents almost every year when i was younger. i never really took any pleasure from seeing how other people just go about their days
no they arent. they work real jobs where they feel some sense of accomplishment and make decent to good money, and also surely have friends and family and even coworkers they converse with.
No and my family is coercing me into accepting a new job that they found for me thanks to some connections after I said that I want to leave the country for good to try new possibilities
I'm already mid 20s, have good money saved, and if I don't do it now I'll soon be too old to try to escape this shithole
I actually tried to kill myself a month ago and failed.
Man, it's not like I don't enjoy spending time with you guys... but life is just not what it used to be for me. I'd like to finally rest.
It's alright anon. I'm glad you're here today so that I could at least have talked to you. I don't know if you'll find your way, if you already have and lost it, don't even want to find it, but as long as you continue living the possibilities are endless.
why have a nice day? youre going to die no matter what anyway. if you think life is meaningless just do whatever you want without fear and then maybe youll have some actual meaning in your life. take it from me lad. i have an eye disorder that will make me blind in the near future. im not depressed at all tho
>why have a nice day? youre going to die no matter what anyway
this idea seems rational but it doesnt work for us morons. we want to kill ourselves because the idea of living with the misery and hopelessness we feel for decades more is too much to bear.
>dude just do whatever you want lol
weve had our life to this point to do that. cant suddenly just flip a switch and do it.
The only thing I would want to do in life is something creative but I have no talent, no amazing people skills, no connections... and any fun creative job gets equalized by dumbass executives making you dumb down your stuff to cut costs and appease the tasteless masses and the insane working hours because there are million of people willing to replace you and work for pennies since these passion driven jobs feel less like a job but more like an opportunity you should be grateful for so people are willing to work for pennies and crazy hours.
It honestly feels like only a fraction of people get to live the dream and most are just stuck coping and trying to ease the pain of their unfulfilling life with consoooming, relationships and vacations.
godawful shit. self indulgent horseshit for losers deluding themselves into thinking they have some secret cool side to themselves that the world just doesn't recognize.
great visuals in that movie - was this an Adam Sandler type of studio ripoff getting other people to pay for Ben Stiller and friends to have vacations all over the world?
I'm ok with where I am currently. I have a career, good family, and a few good friends, however they live out of state so most of the interactions is vidya. I'm back on the dating apps and will be meeting with a girl in 2 weeks (will be my second date ever at the age of 25)
I just want to get into a decent house, but holy frick NJ does everything in its power to make it difficult as frick to live in. I really should move to PA.
The last ten years of my life were a steady culmination of hard work, making money and realizing my dreams. Ages 28-32 were some of the best of my life. Now I’m 35 next month and I’m beginning to feel not so great.
Feeling like Marty talking about if you know the good times when you’re in them or do you just wait around until you get ass cancer and realize the good times came and went. Is this the beginning of the famous mid life crisis people talk about?
Got married, found my dream job, have a lifestyle I could only have dreamt of a decade ago.
But the human condition is such that you’re always want more. Unless you can learn contentment. And for 90% of us it is something you have to learn, otherwise you can have literally the perfect setup and begin to self-destruct just because you can’t sit still.
I’m about to graduate with my oceanography masters, been out on a lot of research cruises through an NSF grant I’ve been working on with my thesis advisor. Gonna get a sick ass world traveling type job once I graduate. I only wish I got through undergrad and grad school faster, I’m happy where I am but it all feels like it’s 5-6 years ‘behind schedule’. Also feels like I’m getting too old to meet a nice girl, I was already 6 years old by the time my parents reached my age.
I don't think so, anon.
I got engaged a few weeks ago but I think it's over already. Unfortunately my finances aren't great right now and she just really found out about the extent of it and now she says she needs time to think about us. I don't know if she'll come back to me.
I really screwed this one up, man. I should have just been honest from the start, before getting engaged at least.
I really hope she does not break things off. I would be so heartbroken and embarrassed and might just off myself.
>I should have just been honest from the start,
she would had dump your ass at the start or come up with some other excuse to not be wtih you.
you fricked her pussy for a long time, you won, you are a champion, if she dumps your ass, which seems that is gonna happen, you can focus on fixing your finances, and when she comes back crying, just say no, and go for someone younger than her.
yeah, it's alright. i mean i need to exercise more. but i already look way better than like 80% of america. and i should really go out and talk to girls before i get really old. i still want to frick more chicks.
but otherwise i have my shit together and make decent money doing not much. i have a good, easy life.
My initial plans were to drink myself to death or become homeless and die on the streets. Figured there was no hope for my future so might as well cut it short. I recently learned the singularity will likely come within my lifetime so it's now my mission to do as well as I can so by the time it comes I'm not already dead or something. That would be moronic; if I miss the best this reality has to offer because of some dumb mental illness that won't mean much in the grand scheme of things.
I’m 33 and I’ve been going through a rough time recently. It really makes me feel so much better coming here and reading some of what you guys have to say. It puts things into perspective. I love how just purely honest we can all be here, And I already feel better. Just knowing that there are guys out there who have their “” dream, job and dream girl, and yet are still unhappy, makes me feel less shitty about myself. And that is not a insult to you if anything, it shows how human we are and how are all struggling through this fricked up life
for me it doesnt make me feel less shitty, it makes me feel even more hopeless that there can be people who have things in their life and are still miserable.
Well you're still alive. No use in being miserable alone when there's some good times to be had with the time you have even if it's not exactly what you thought it would be as a kid.
You can't help someone with your moronic attitude >I'm hungry >so eat >"dude just eat lol"
YES. Just start pretending that you're not depressed and you'll trick your brain. Literally, just fricking stop being depressed.
You're sad because you're a sack of shit with no drive, not some bad brain chemistry.
Maybe, I'm not sure yet. I haven't been happy or fulfilled for quite a long time, but finally made the move to quit my job which has been a huge source of unhappiness/stress for the past 4 years. I think it's the right decision, but I'm planning on being unemployed for a while I think, trying to figure out what I want to do next. I have enough savings to keep me going for a few years, hopefully I can figure it out. In the meantime, I'm going to be pursuing a lot of the things I've wanted to do, but have been putting off for years, which I'm excited about. Thanks for reading my blog.
My friend did something similar and he's now happier than he has been his entire life. I hope it works out for you. One thing he did was work for a couple weeks on some Costa Rican coffee field. Got lean and had fun.
Thanks anon. I'm actually feeling optimistic and excited for the first time in a long while. I've felt so utterly drained from work everyday that I haven't had any space for anything else, at the end of the work day I've just wanted to relax and do nothing. The only thing keeping me there were financial reasons. Excited to pursue some things I'm genuinely interested in and excited about.
i want to quit my job so much because it literally humiliates me going to it. it isnt stressful, its just flat out humiliating because ive ruined and wasted my entire life here, and its completely useless, meaningless work. however, i am terrified of quitting because im sure that if i quit, i will never find another job, especially in what is apparently a horrific job market now. and even though im at rock bottom of life, i dont even know what i would spend unemployed days doing. whenever i have free time now i just waste it doing nothing. im also terrified of having to update a resume and do a job interview with how few skills i have.
on the other hand, being unemployed and feeling as useless as humanly possible might finally get me over the hump to finally commit suicide.
Maybe you could just do the bare minimum at work for a while, and use the extra time to pursue some extra skills if there's anything you're interested in? Or use the extra time for things that make you happy. Depending on where you work, they may even pay for you to go to classes.
>Excited to pursue some things I'm genuinely interested in and excited about.
You could be doing those things now if you didn't waste so much fricking time of Cinemaphile and other bullshit kek >I'm soooo busy
alright chief yeah I bet. You give off twenty year old woman energy.
Yeah you're right, I could have been doing those things instead of going on Cinemaphile or other bullshit. But as I said, basically my whole life has revolved around my job for a long time (past 6.5 years in very demanding roles), nothing else outside of work really. Financially it's put me in a good enough position that I'll be ok being unemployed for a good stretch, so I'm going to use the time to do the things I've been putting off for a long time.
You think I'm going to read the b***h ass excuses of a grown man? Get your fat flabby useless ass out of here.
You don't live life. You only work. You're no human, you're an insect.
A drone, a bug. A maggot. homosexual MAGGOT.

Yes. I've been doing stand up comedy at open mics, working as a vfx artist and travelling the world. I'm trying my best.
I won't let being a fat manlet get me down anymore.
its 50/50. I'm trying to improve some things career wise by going back to school. and maybe if I finish that I can finally look into leaving for a more fun place. I did break up with my gf because it seemed like I was putting more effort into the relationship than she was. so that sucked. I did like her an I wouldn't mind trying to fix it but if I'm just going back to the same old one sided stuff I just feel like I would be back to square one
I just solved my mental illness of 10 years, right as they were going to put me on schizo pills (Invega if you're curious). Called up my sister to tell her but she didn't get it. Feels like I saw the very depths and rock bottom of human experience, I pulled the curtain back like in wizard of oz, but whenever I try to explain to someone what I saw there they never understand
This might be my favorite movie, it's easily top 3
And no
Whats the other two anon?
Captain Marvel and Black Panther
I'm trans btw* forgot to mention
why do you love it so much

No
This movie is stupid. No way he was a pro skater and became a normie office loser.
Send him a bawk you hee haw head
I just go to my shit job and live for the weekend when I can binge drink.
Literally me
Yeah I just wish I had some more friends. I'm almost 30 and I lost most of the discord friends I used to have

yeah, but I reclused into neetdom while I get a stem degree so that I can steal jobs back from indians
No and my family is coercing me into accepting a new job that they found for me thanks to some connections after I said that I want to leave the country for good to try new possibilities

Man, it's not like I don't enjoy spending time with you guys... but life is just not what it used to be for me. I'd like to finally rest.
how did you try it anon?
drowning, thought it would be hard but not impossible
guess I'll try jumping next
how did you try it? like aj soprano tying a cinder block to your foot in a pool? i have heard that drowning is one of the worst suicide methods
yeah like that but in a deep lake
something just took over and I couldn't stay underwater no matter how hard I tried

I'm imagining you with thin, pale wrists, like those of a woman. Am I right ?
A flawed but fun 6/10 movie
I liked the sincerity of it the most.
Is this one of those "feel sorry for the depressed whitey" genre or is there more to it
It’s about a guy that’s lived in his own head too much for too long and finally starts to live for real again
The last ten years of my life were a steady culmination of hard work, making money and realizing my dreams. Ages 28-32 were some of the best of my life. Now I’m 35 next month and I’m beginning to feel not so great.

Usually unhappiness like that stems from the woman. Does your wife get your dick up still?
My parents love me so much l but I still want to kill myself. I feel guilty but at the same time it’s not their choice it’s mine.
walter SHITTY
I've gone on a few "find myself" trips and still haven't found Sean Penn.
Is Sean Penn in this? Fricking DROPPED.
He's the best character in the movie and it's practically a cameo
I’m about to graduate with my oceanography masters, been out on a lot of research cruises through an NSF grant I’ve been working on with my thesis advisor. Gonna get a sick ass world traveling type job once I graduate. I only wish I got through undergrad and grad school faster, I’m happy where I am but it all feels like it’s 5-6 years ‘behind schedule’.

yeah, it's alright. i mean i need to exercise more. but i already look way better than like 80% of america. and i should really go out and talk to girls before i get really old. i still want to frick more chicks.
but otherwise i have my shit together and make decent money doing not much. i have a good, easy life.
My initial plans were to drink myself to death or become homeless and die on the streets. Figured there was no hope for my future so might as well cut it short. I recently learned the singularity will likely come within my lifetime so it's now my mission to do as well as I can so by the time it comes I'm not already dead or something. That would be moronic; if I miss the best this reality has to offer because of some dumb mental illness that won't mean much in the grand scheme of things.
how would being killed by ais be "the best this reality has to offer"? im sure you can go od on painkillers right now, would be a lot better
I’m 33 and I’ve been going through a rough time recently. It really makes me feel so much better coming here and reading some of what you guys have to say. It puts things into perspective. I love how just purely honest we can all be here, And I already feel better. Just knowing that there are guys out there who have their “” dream, job and dream girl, and yet are still unhappy, makes me feel less shitty about myself. And that is not a insult to you if anything, it shows how human we are and how are all struggling through this fricked up life
for me it doesnt make me feel less shitty, it makes me feel even more hopeless that there can be people who have things in their life and are still miserable.
Well you're still alive. No use in being miserable alone when there's some good times to be had with the time you have even if it's not exactly what you thought it would be as a kid.
>haha dude just dont be miserable lol
It really is that simple if you have a little hope and can see the good things happening around you and let them bring meaning to your existence.
You can't help someone with your moronic attitude
>I'm hungry
>so eat
>"dude just eat lol"
YES. Just start pretending that you're not depressed and you'll trick your brain. Literally, just fricking stop being depressed.
You're sad because you're a sack of shit with no drive, not some bad brain chemistry.
Gotta start with the man in the mirror Black person
Maybe, I'm not sure yet. I haven't been happy or fulfilled for quite a long time, but finally made the move to quit my job which has been a huge source of unhappiness/stress for the past 4 years. I think it's the right decision, but I'm planning on being unemployed for a while I think, trying to figure out what I want to do next. I have enough savings to keep me going for a few years, hopefully I can figure it out. In the meantime, I'm going to be pursuing a lot of the things I've wanted to do, but have been putting off for years, which I'm excited about. Thanks for reading my blog.
My friend did something similar and he's now happier than he has been his entire life. I hope it works out for you. One thing he did was work for a couple weeks on some Costa Rican coffee field. Got lean and had fun.
Thanks anon. I'm actually feeling optimistic and excited for the first time in a long while. I've felt so utterly drained from work everyday that I haven't had any space for anything else, at the end of the work day I've just wanted to relax and do nothing. The only thing keeping me there were financial reasons. Excited to pursue some things I'm genuinely interested in and excited about.
Maybe you could just do the bare minimum at work for a while, and use the extra time to pursue some extra skills if there's anything you're interested in? Or use the extra time for things that make you happy. Depending on where you work, they may even pay for you to go to classes.
>Excited to pursue some things I'm genuinely interested in and excited about.
You could be doing those things now if you didn't waste so much fricking time of Cinemaphile and other bullshit kek
>I'm soooo busy
alright chief yeah I bet. You give off twenty year old woman energy.
Yeah you're right, I could have been doing those things instead of going on Cinemaphile or other bullshit. But as I said, basically my whole life has revolved around my job for a long time (past 6.5 years in very demanding roles), nothing else outside of work really. Financially it's put me in a good enough position that I'll be ok being unemployed for a good stretch, so I'm going to use the time to do the things I've been putting off for a long time.
You think I'm going to read the b***h ass excuses of a grown man? Get your fat flabby useless ass out of here.
You don't live life. You only work. You're no human, you're an insect.
A drone, a bug. A maggot. homosexual MAGGOT.
>wahh i become rich from my job it was so hard and stressful wahh
i want to quit my job so much because it literally humiliates me going to it. it isnt stressful, its just flat out humiliating because ive ruined and wasted my entire life here, and its completely useless, meaningless work. however, i am terrified of quitting because im sure that if i quit, i will never find another job, especially in what is apparently a horrific job market now. and even though im at rock bottom of life, i dont even know what i would spend unemployed days doing. whenever i have free time now i just waste it doing nothing. im also terrified of having to update a resume and do a job interview with how few skills i have.
on the other hand, being unemployed and feeling as useless as humanly possible might finally get me over the hump to finally commit suicide.
Yes. I've been doing stand up comedy at open mics, working as a vfx artist and travelling the world. I'm trying my best.
I won't let being a fat manlet get me down anymore.
stav?
Nah I'm nowhere near as fat funny successful or wealthy as him.
Go to Austin so you can be humiliated by that gay Tony while living in Portland 2.0
I don't live in the nation of the apes.
Good luck then. Comedians from the US and UK have it hard enough to make a living I can't imagine how difficult it is in India
India is lower than an ape nation.
I'm sorry you're from a country worse than India then
Look pajeet, you don't have to defend your shithole nation every fricking time
Peak ESL right here.
I need a new beard trimmer, can anyone recommend me something decent?
he is not us, he is just a cool kid that lost it's cool at some point, we were never "cool" or "on it" as they used to say.
getting there. mostly i would say yes but there are a few things left to ammend
no gf is one of them (maybe)
its 50/50. I'm trying to improve some things career wise by going back to school. and maybe if I finish that I can finally look into leaving for a more fun place. I did break up with my gf because it seemed like I was putting more effort into the relationship than she was. so that sucked. I did like her an I wouldn't mind trying to fix it but if I'm just going back to the same old one sided stuff I just feel like I would be back to square one
I just solved my mental illness of 10 years, right as they were going to put me on schizo pills (Invega if you're curious). Called up my sister to tell her but she didn't get it. Feels like I saw the very depths and rock bottom of human experience, I pulled the curtain back like in wizard of oz, but whenever I try to explain to someone what I saw there they never understand
