Just putting that out there. Basically a directorial debut, JK fucking Simmons, multiple Oscars, probably the best editing of any movie in the past 30 years. Just a crazy movie that shouldn't exist but against all odds it does.

Lol no, the 2010s was literally the decade of the MCU, the greatest franchise of all time which has graced cinema!

No but seriously JK Simmons is amazing. I hate the director's obsession with jazz though which even bled into La La Land. I'm so glad Eleanor from The Good Place shares my passion for hating jazz.

I didn't see La La Land tbh. I like musicals but that shit looked bad, and after seeing Whiplash I was just like what the fuck is you doing Damien Chazelle? I don't think he'll ever top it and it's a shame.

I love jazz tho and you're wrong.

I think that La La Land is worth checking out, at least.

idk which one I prefer between it and Whiplash, but I feel La La Land is more rewatchable.

It would have been better without the anti vax lead actor.

Nah. There were so many good movies from Korea/China around that time too. In the US only? It's definitely up there.

It's really good, but it's not perfect. It's got some hokey aspects to it, mostly involving the unnecessary girlfriend, but every scene with Simmons is A+++ tier.
