>In order to play Bill the Butcher, Day-Lewis would stay in character to a fault. He constantly spoke in Bill's unique Yankee dialect (a bizarre televangelist snap; he read the Bible and Walt Whitman poetry to rehearse), and would walk around Rome, where the movie was being shot, picking fights with random strangers.
What would you do if this moron walked up to you on the street and started picking a fight?

Fricking hell, thanks for the laugh OP

I am fricking jacked at 6' 3" but I don't like to hurt people so i'd probably bear hug him and start crying because I had an abusive childhood that turned me into a pussy during conflicts
God created martial arts specifically for people like you
God didn't create martial arts, people did.
And who created those people? Check mate
Their moms and dads
me
obviously, you're all in my head
Theres a lot of questionable porn in here... are you ok?
Shane?
Literally me but 6'0 and a beanpole with a normal childhood
Yes but this guy fights with knives, and he's damn good at throwing them as well. So being a jacked 6,3 doesn't mean shit against someone with fight with weapons
Not the movie character you fricking idiot
same but I'm not jacked
I would sucker punch him while screaming world star
Underrated
I would calmly explain to him that he's an upper-class poof and if he doesn't stop behaving like a schizo immediately I would hurt him physically and he won't be able to play pretend for the movie.
>(a bizarre televangelist snap; he read the Bible and Walt Whitman poetry to rehearse)
why did martin allow him to do it? it's not even historically accurate at the time
It doesn't matter, he's the only good part of the movie.
I'd listen to him, because that's what nobody else did. Then I'd kick him in the nuts.
What's in this thread? The janny's new army? A few troons and a handful of crusty b***hes?
they filmed Gangs of New York in Rome? wut
The neighborhood in new york
What's the point? It's not going to look like it did in the 19th century.
the buildings in the movie aren't real buildings. they're just fronts with nothing behind them. but those fake buildings were created in rome
They also filmed HBO's Rome there
>get curious about the old York back in England
>Look it up
>Wallace and Growing are from there
Wholesome info.
Why isn't it called New Rome if it's in New York? dumb amerifats.
Most of the filming took place in Italy, with a few shots in NYC
This seems obvious where the frick are they going to build this set in NYC? Also, I'm sure it was cheaper to do it there.
rome is crowded
DAMAGED
What other method actors did moronic shit like this?
Jared Leto
he did it for one role and that was an oscar bait role so it was acceptable, unless you're talking about him staying in character as morbius running around saying its Morbin time
It was a terrible role
>muh Oscar
Bill the butcher was way better.
Leto infamously does shit constantly. Leto is also an enormously pretentious homosexual and possibly a groomer cult leader.
I do, but I'm a background actor so I don't get the same acclaim
Give us some examples
>Background character in show set in highschool
>Carry around a backpack
>Get high behing the local highschools gym
>Frick teenage girls
ITT anons find out movies are make-believe
WHAT
Is it bad that I can tell this is Rodeo drive just because of that staircase
I wouldn't say a single word to him.
I would listen to what he had to say, and that's what no-one did.
How many threads are you gonna Manson post in?
As many as it takes until they listen
I'll listen anon
Please keep going.
I actually saw you Manson post the other day and it made me laugh later on in the day when I was driving.
You are heard, anon.
It's not me I wish I were that based
?si=raIlngOo0dioUqyO
I wish there were more movies set in this era in NY, it's seems very interesting.
I just wish Amerimutts start doing more historical movies about their own history. The lack of movies about their revolution is amazing.
We only need one movie about the Revolution.
I mean actually good movies.
Catholic shit.
Martin Luther was the last based protestant. Protestants are shabbos goys
>marty puts a scene where a corrupt democrat imports refugees to vote for him
What did he mean by this?
William M. Tweed was a very corrupt man
those ultra high top hats are kino
Most Democrats wouldn't give a shit and say something like, "well it's kinda scummy, but it's still a good thing in the end cause it gives more immigrants a chance to start a new life here" or "the Democrat party from back then isn't the same as today (it is), the parties switched in the 60s (they didn't, they just changed tactics)."
Leftists don't play by their own rules; they will justify and excuse anything if it serves their purpose while disparaging the other side for breaking the system in the next breath. You cannot have an argument in good faith with a leftist and the biggest weakness of the right is their failure to accept this fact.
Does it count as a time DDL acted like the Joker
>and would walk around Rome
I feel like a lot of people do that.
It was shot in Rome? Wtf
Madman.
Has there ever been a better opening scene jn all of cinema?
That scene was capeshit-tier tho.
The method actor backlash is stupid. Actors SHOULD have to earn their paycheck by suffering a little.
Nothing is more infuriating than some Hollywood celebrity walking up to a green screen, robotically reading lines they don’t care about for five minutes, and getting paid millions for it.
Method acting works because it pushes actors to understand their characters. If they don't understand their characters then they are poorly written or the actor sucks
But, some stuff can only be understood by experience. Like, for example, DDL learned how to butcher meat for Gangs of New York. Read the script as many times as you want, but it won't teach you how to butcher meat, so your understanding of a character called the Butcher is limited.
I would laugh then turn 360 degrees and walk away
Why doesn’t he try acting
Let him win. His performance in GoNY was fricking intense.
What I loved most about that movie is it shows America has always been a shithole. Fun fact: during Rockefeller/JP Morgan/Ford reign, 90% of Americans lived in poverty.
The ONLY reason things changed for awhile was an anarchist killed the oligarch's puppet president (McKinley) putting Teddy, which was their worst nightmare. He broke up monopolies, got rid of Standard Oil, supported unions and nation parks.
But of course, Americans are so fricking stupid, that only lasted a little while until they voted Nixon/Reagon and undid it ALL. Now we vote in literal morons.
Gangs of NY is a reminder that America was born to suck. The only reason things are good is because we get lucky (surrounded by water making it hard to invade except for Canada and Mexico lol real threat there), taken ton of land/resources from Natives only because most died during plague, and WWII left us better off than most.
But that time is running out. The empire will crumble filled with madmen and our buildings will be just like this movie (shit, many cities already are)
>The ONLY reason things changed for awhile was an anarchist killed the oligarch's puppet president
He was so fricking based it’s unreal
I bet you say you're a "real leftist" and don't care about "idpol" but believe race isn't real and homosexuals are no different than straights
>but believe race isn’t real
It isn’t. Imagine thinking gigantic, geographically diverse continents like Africa and Asia produced a single “race” of people. It’s absurd. If there are meaningful races, there are hundreds or thousands of them, not three.
what fresh cope is this. look at genetic clusters
>like pottery
you people just believe what you were told to believe when you were a child and never grew out of it
Anon, he didn’t mention FDR once. I think you might be having a stroke.
He's literally me.
Didnt he play a gay dude in one of his last movies? Wonder how he prepared for that one
Probably rape him. I'm not lying. Imagine being known as the guy who raped Daniel Day-Lewis. Also, it doesn't matter what role he does after, he'll be remembered as the method actor that tried to method act a fight and then got method acted raped up the ass.
Method actors are gays.
I would fight him and let him win, so the ego of his character would get bigger and he would provide a better performance.
