Not a fan unless Netflix starts giving wider releases to their originals.
That's not going to happen. I don't see anything wrong with this deal. It's not that long and he is probably going to make things he has always wanted to make.

Cool. Please Mr. Fincher finally adapt the graphic novel Black Hole into a film ! Netflix will give you plenty of $$$ to play with.

I always wonder how Fincher's gonna choose that one shot. Does he choose the 101th take or he dumps it all on the editing table and choose the one that he and his editor thinks is good.

It all feels like posturing, personally. Kubrick is glorified and deified for doing the same thing. I understand multiple takes if you're wanting to give yourself options in the editing bay, but a hundred takes is absolutely asinine.

From what I've read, he'll sew together multiple different takes of actors if he feels it necessary. So for example, I'm pretty sure there's a two-shot in The Social Network where he took what Andrew Garfield was doing in one take and Jesse Eisenberg was doing in another and pieced them together using digital editing. Also, I imagine a lot of the takes just has to do with appropriately matching his camera moves to his actors, he likes to do slight tilts and pans when the character moves even subtly and I imagine matching that precisely can suck especially with someone as fickle as Fincher.

I understand multiple takes if you're wanting to give yourself options in the editing bay, but a hundred takes is absolutely asinine. An actor of Oldman's caliber doesn't need 100 takes to get it right. I've worked on movie sets and here in India even a big name director would hesitate to ask a veteran actor for a 10th take. Props to Oldman for maintaining his sanity.

Reminds me that someone on here said that actors who work for directors that do a bunch of takes (Fincher, Kubrick, Jackson) don’t deserve awards because they got more tries at it is more of an editing accomplishment.

Did that happen to him? I can't remember because Twitter cancels someone every other minute. This idea sounds more like a limited series rather than a serial one.

My first reaction to reading that was a massive raised eyebrow ... but when you think about the trilogy of TSN/Dragon Tattoo/Gone Girl they all essentially deal with that in some way ... I'm not much of a Fincher fan so I don't have much faith in this off the bat but it could be interesting or catastrophic. Film Twitter's new obsession regardless.

“It’s about how modern society measures an apology. If you give a truly heartfelt apology and no one believes it, did you even apologize at all?”It's not that different from a kind of idea that always pops up in Literature - the noble intent/act being ignored or not believed/understood.....I always think about it with the book (not the film) The Natural actually - where he strikes out, but not on purpose and everyone thinks he just threw the game anyway and took the money. It's just a modern culture spin on a traditional thematic idea I would guess.....

Frankly, I think the weirdest thing about Fincher is that he cared so much for Spacey as an actor. Pitt I get, but the Spacey repetitive smugster schtick?

If you had said ten years ago that the first actor to potentially win for a David Fincher movie was Karen Smith, everyone woulda called you crazy. That's a major reason why I'm rooting for Seyfried (whom I've always thought was best of the Mean Girls bunch). Thing is, this write-up is exactly the sort of thing I think will help her.

I always thought her career took a nosedive thanks to Lovelace.

Orson Welles scholar Joseph McBride weighs in on the film, and is highly critical of its portrayal of Welles, pointing out distortions and instances of dramatic license in the script. He also gives an overview of the history of negative portrayals of Welles onscreen, which is interesting. An excerpt:
