Maybe he should marry another step-daughter about it.

What a surprise Woody allen wants "romance" back in film making.

He probably just wishes he could still be a sex pest and get away with it.

I tried watching one of his movies and I found the characters so insufferable I couldn’t make it past like 30-40 minutes.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

That's the woody Allen charm

[–] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago

He sucks. He always sucked. All of his movies inexplicably pair himself with young beautiful women. Gee what happened to the art?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago

I.e. he can no longer write in his bumbling-neurotic main character into a romance with an actress a fraction of his age whose character exists purely as a personification of his frustrated desires?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I can't wait till I can resume watching his movies again. Surely it's any day now.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I mean, you can watch them any time. But he’s still a pedophile

[–] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I want to wait till he can no longer profit off my views.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Then what’s wrong with piratebay? Or a private tracker

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

Nothing. I don't usually watch movies that way.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago

Good thing I have Woody Allen to remind me all movies suck. I guess he can't be wrong, so I must have hallucinated the whole thing while watching Dune Part 2.

I watched poor things last night I would disagree. Does he have a production company maybe put up and be the change.
