We’re so lucky to live in a time when it’s now possible for us to correct these glaring omissions. Like that lovely Spanish woman who painstakingly restored the Ecce homosexual painting of Christ

Do you not know his backstory? He was adopted by the Menakers, a wealthy couple of New York intellectuals working in the publishing industry, but that’s not where he’s actually from. He’s mentioned it a few times on the show before- the orphanage he was adopted from was in the Atlanta area, and the only thing he knows about his biological mother is she was 15 years old at the time of his birth, and she was apparently addicted to drugs and alcohol. He very literally most likely has fetal alcohol syndrome

No, most normal people don't care about your gay e-friends

Jesus Christ, a Chinatown prequel series? Really, Fincher? C'mon, man. That's just low. I'd rather see the mid as frick sequel again than this shit.
Now i remember that last year they made a Casablanca prequel series as well.
Sadly, the Casablanca remake starring Madonna and Ashton Kutcher was shelved.
Who gives a frick, It's more streaming slop that nobody will watch
I offended just by the idea of a Chinatown prequel, especially by Netflix.
>Chinatown
Is this a covid hoax documentary prequel?
It wasn’t a hoax, and even though it was, that’s a good thing.
>Cinemaphile pretends Two Jakes didn’t already happen in order to act outraged
I love The Two Jakes as its a proper sequel. Chinatown is a place where you cant control whats the outcome. Its a place where chaos lives. Its a metaphor and to explore that in a prequel misses the point.
What’s chinatown about?
Father rapes his daughter
Oriental Despotism
Los Angeles steals water from neighboring tribes/cities/Owens river
incest and water
Forget it, anon, it's a movie.
I forgot.
>it’s a prequel instead of a female-led remake
You just know it’s gonna be shit regardless
>Netflix presents: Chinatown
>More Fincher slop
>crucial error
>error
How the frick is it an "error?" It's good writing. Conservation of detail.
It's sarcasm.
>sarcasm on the internet without <sarcasm> tags or some othe indication that you're not serious
Why do people do this? It's basic netiquette.
>netiquette
Go back
To where? Usenet?
The term "netiquette" is a few years older than you, kid.
that term is older than your dad, lad
Mmmmmmmmm, jokes are supposed to be funny.
You're socially moronic
Are you guys seriously so dumb you don't understand he's being sarcastic?
>Netflix series
Haha, nope.
Reminder that paramont/netflix/disney etc all mandate 50% of the cast and production to be minorities.
So there is actually negative chance that this will be watchable at all.
Chinatown needs to be HWITE!
Chinatown was way more colourful than ever presented in the past. I for one can't wait for Netflix to portray Chinatown as it really is: a floruishing multicultural space with blacks as far as the eye can see.
>Reminder that paramont/netflix/disney etc all mandate 50% of the cast and production to be minorities.
It’s the prequel story to Chinatown.
The movie is set in Chinatown.
You think Asians aren't hypersensitive now? Any realistic or interesting depiction of Chinatown of that time will be thoroughly destroyed.
>NO I NEED TO b***h ABOUT SOMETHING IS BAD EVEN BEFORE THEY’VE SHOT EVEN ONE FRAME BECAUSE I JUST KNOW IT WILL SUCK BECAUSE IT FEELS TRUE TO ME
>Chinatown prequel
Sounds like a terrible idea, but at least Fincher should ensure some resemblance of quality. Honestly the biggest obstacle is casting someone who isn't utterly pathetic in comparison to Nicholson.
Mindhunters S2 has something to tell you
fincher... come on... you're better than this.
not really. Mank was garbage.
Filtered.
This is gonna be Shogun but wiht Jack Nicholson's alike fricking chinese pussy in 20s-30s LA (I don't remember at what decade the movie starts)
Even original Shogun was somewhat respectful to the Japanese. Chinatown, authentically, treated the chinese like trash. Any netflix slop will 100% make the Chinese characters powerful masterminds.
The original Chinatown takes place in 1937, which means a prequel set say a decade earlier would put it right at the tail end of the Tong Wars. A realistic adaptation of those years with the Tongs clashing with the LAPD and all kinds of rival gangs would genuinely lend itself to having more than a few masterminds running around. It was a very exciting and chaotic time and place to be around by all accounts
>a Chinatown prequel series
I hope they fix it for Chinese audiences
Meanwhile americans would just remake the whole movie with a million changes like making random people black and completely missing the point.
Fricking epic, a chinatown cinematic universe is what we've been missing.
Fincher is hands down the biggest brainlet, overrated, director working.
He's good if he's working with a good script, but he often doesn't and absolutely can't salvage bad material.
Maybe people will start talking about The Two Jakes in a positive light now. This movie is just pure comfiness.
> Manhunter gaymount as young Gittes
No thanks Finchie!
paramount recently released chinatown on 4k and they erased polanski's name
now paramount makes Criterion like covers? yikes
Why is it only boutique labels that recreate original artwork nowadays? At least its not as bad as that Rosemarys Baby release.
