Current Events > Watched django unchained. DiCaprio's face is so distracting. Doesn't fit his rol

(+) Yeah! (+)

Goofiest, most non menacing villain ever it's actually pretty distracting. You're supposed to be scared of him, but he looks too goofy. Whoever casted leo for that role should think their career decision.

Or maybe because i am already exposed to the meme i can't think of anything else when i look at his face except the meme

---

Yes

---

That meme format always gets me lmao
---

he still did a really good job, though, IMO.

and maybe it's because of the way he looked, but he came off as feeling kinda realistic in some ways (as far as realistic as someone can feel in a Tarantino movie).

---

He's just unable to make angry faces. His go to is to jut his jaw out. And Hollywood has known this for years so they made their choice already enlightened.

i dunno man, he looked pretty slave ownerish to me...

It's this lol.

I actually found him super menacing for this reason. Like you know his entire personality is a sham and he's not even charismatic enough to do it convincingly. The entire character is just unsettling.


---

Yeah luigi!

Spoilers for the ending of Django

The point is you are supposed to be terrified of him but he does come across as this dumb psychotic loose cannon almost henchman style stock character.

Which he is. Steven is the real main villain and far more scary than Calvin ever was.

---

The last 20 minutes of that movie are pure revenge porn greatness.

are villains that rely on money/power to be threatening supposed to look physically threatening?

Tjey doesn't, but at least try not to make yourself too goofy

---

Have you ever seen pictures/portraits of some of the plantation owners from the time? They were some goofy looking mother fuckers.
Lots of baby-faces, no one lived beyond 35. DiCaprio was a great fit.

---

Nah, his look is the point. He was perfect for the role.

Dicaprio was playing a pampered, entitled narcissist who indulged his appetites. I mean come on, hes pretty much that already in real life, except for the (you know) slave owning part.

---

Ive always hated him in everything after titanic. Hes not a good actor. Hes just playing leo in every role.

Lol, have you ever watched Whats eating Gilbert Grape, The Revenant or J. Edgar?

Im guessing no, but maybe you have and just forgot those roles.

I have. Thats a great performance. When he was 7

He was 19 years old.

Just four years later, he was saving Rose on the Titanic.

---

Wow he was really 19? No way.

but yeah ever since titanic its been the same role in every movie. Departed people loved for some reason. That was painful how miscast he was. Same with every tarantino movie. Then again, his last movie proved tarantino isnt in a good state of mind anyway. That movie was soooo bad.

He was supposed to be over-the-top... I mean... wasnt his plantation called candy land?

---

Btw nobody talks about this but isnt he a pervert? He publicly goes out with 18yo models when hes 50 or whatever. How can you possibly relate with a teen girl?

and nobody who goes out with 18 year olds publicly, doesnt not go out with younger girls too. Nobody seems to care.

This. It's a top 5 Leo role imo. Also, "menacing" isn't really what I think they were going for so much as "unsettling."

He was charasmatic and relatable and even likeable one scene and an absolutely detestable narcessitic monster the next.

1. Tinder studies have already proven pretty much the entirety of society is full of "perverts" as the most desireable age of a woman regardless of the age of the man is apparently 22. Google searching Leo's history, he likes young but it doesn't look like he goes out of his way to target girls fresh out of high school.

Fact: Pretty much every 50 yr old dude wishes he could bang young super models the rest of their life. Leo's just a GOAT so he can get away with it while average guy can't. Nothing perverted about it.

2. Dating legal age women proves he dates not-legal women is the dumbest saltiest shit I've heard all day.

You know what the difference is? LEGALITY. Pretty sure a guy worth hundreds of millions who can get play from hot 21 yr olds and 19 yr olds all day every day isn't going to risk it all for a 16 yr old.

And again, we've already addressed the part about men overwhelmingly statistically finding college age and slightly post college age the most attractive by a landslide, if that makes you a pervert literally most men are perverts.

Why are you obsessed with defending him? Ur weird

Do we know tho?!

---

that's your beef in that entire ridiculous movie? I loved it. it's about what the guy does, not how he looks. his whole front is that he's a weak hearted Frenchman and it's all a shallow lie.

I defend a man's God given right to smash hot women younger than them and not be guilt tripped as a pervert for it just because some old ugly guys can't get away with it when we all know if they could pull it off they would.

What's the point of bringing it up to insult DiCaprio if you can't handle an articulated answer? The whole point of the topic is to generate a discussion. You want people to nod their heads and be your yes men or something?

---

He ignored my articulate answers, then brought up don like rebukes such as well everyone is a pervert so its cool. I no longer reply to the mentally ill.

---

But like...are you trying to be his bf? Ur obsessed

---

When his girlfriend is fucking him now, do you think this is the face she sees in her head?

Wtf is even happening here lol

Django > Django Unchained

---

Good movie. I liked it better than inglorious basterds

Even watched the original Django just to see it
