New Movie The Revenant?

[tenngun]

Greed is a motive, but I think fitzgugh was just scared. The aricara were out and a danger. I don't think they thought Glass could live, but wanted nature to take its corse and didn't want to kill him them self. They took his stuff because you wouldn't leave it with a dead man. Maybe Glass was hypotensive and near coma, and then thier big guilt was not burning him as they were paid to do. May have thought him dead or so near it didn't matter. Several wrighters mention then how quick animals dug up the dead, and it was useless to bury people.

Even doctors have mistaken people for dead because they were so close they couldn't tell. Maybe this was the case.

Saw it. Didn't like it at all. I want my 2 hours of life back.

Maybe the bear had the best performance, but he wasn't nominated. I understand that several bears have announced that they boycotting the Oscars because of this.

I was underwhelmed, to say the least. I have seen people walk out of movies because they were too violent, too scary, or gory. Not since I saw The English Patient have I seen people walk out because they said it was too boring.

Richard Harris' Man in the Wilderness was much better.

Only the black bears.

You are joking right ? does anyone think of the effort put into making this movie , THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAIL , I thought the ending was to sped up and could have sat through another 2 hours of Glass seeking revenge.

 

[Alden]

I agree with jbg AND you Phil. The movie we saw dragged out and the chase and revenge should have been the second half...

Oh, and when Leonardo pours powder directly from his horn it is NOT in the heat of battle, rather it is when he is having some prescient mountain man trapper guide anxious insight into what's coming. Kinda lame Hollywood pablum...

 

[Grumpa]

Welcome back, Alden. :hatsoff:

 

[pargent]

ff GOOD TO SEE YOU HAVE DUG YOUR WAY OUT OF ALL THAT SNOW :grin:

 

[Alden]

Hi mate. The only shovels I have now are entrenching tools best suited for the shtuff we see blindly cut-n-pasted...

No more boring than watching a bunch of weird dressed Mountain Men pulling a ship overland!!Didn't they know that sometimes you have to pull a boat,but it should be in the water LOL!

I agree. I was more bored and disappointed with Man in the Wilderness. The story of Hugh Glass coming back to life and crawling to safety is such an amazing story in itself; but it seems Hollywood has not been able to do justice to it. They keep trying to improve it, and it doesn't need improved. So far, the written/spoken word has far exceeded the cinema on this one.

The ghost of Major Andrew Henry, a very real, historically important person, must be spinning in his grave after these two movies.

Historically, I suppose the movie was above "Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Slayer", though.

All this may be true, BUT, most of y'all watched it...

True. I watch Jeremiah Johnson, Last of the Mohicans, The Mountain Men, Man In The Wilderness, Northwest Passage and Drums Along The Mohawk every time I get the chance. I would be willing to bet that many forum members here have the dialog to many of those movies down verbatim. I for one don't think I will ever bother watching The Revenant again.

The bottom line is it has lots of flintlocks in it, and if a movie has flintlocks in it, I'm watchin it. I would watch Sex and the City, or The View, if there were flintlocks on those shows. Well....maybe not The View.

That would be what mankind refers to as "hell." Except for Last of the Mohicans, so bad. So bad.
