>Getting the axe after one season is Nicolas Winding Refn’s Too Old to Die Young. The hourlong crime drama launched in June to mixed reviews, after critics were only given episodes 4 and 5 to review ahead of its release. Many contended that the Miles Teller-fronted series was very slow to get going, and despite Refn’s visual flair, the show will not be continuing.
Hahahaahahahah good it was such fucking FUCK DRUMPF trash I'm glad we won't be getting more blatant disgusting pedowood illuminati anti-white trash, or at least it wont be AS BAD as this was
Brody Fisher
Can't wait until modern directors get the fuck over their obsession with atmospheric neon lighting and pounding synth scores.
David Wilson
still best film of 2019 imo
plebs can go fuck yourselfs
Connor Sanders
But...that's just Refn.
Also, what's wrong with it? You might as well ask Wes Anderson to renounce symmetry and intricate production design.
Mason Price
I'm gonna buy an OLED telly with all the money I made as an extra on Nolan's new flick and then I will watch this series.
Jose Gonzalez
Not surprising, Amazon didn't promote it at all.
With the cancelling of this and Patriot, I can now end my subscription.
Landon Harris
I couldn't even make it through the first episode when I saw he was doing "le silent autismo protag" again definition of a hack, fuck Refn
Brandon Morgan
It wasn't a mini-series? I skipped it because >miles teller But I assumed it was just a one and done thing, I guess it was even more stupid than I thought it was

>Many contended that the Miles Teller-fronted series was very slow to get going, and despite Refn’s visual flair The visuals were like 80% of why I watched it.
Lincoln Russell
no shit it got cancelled. Refn didn't even want to do a second season
Michael Butler
At least I got to hear Dr. Venture
Nolan Howard
..and, boy, was this ever this own thing.
Actually, after watching the first ep, I realized comic author Ed Brubaker wrote it. It did remind me of his crime noir comics, but through Refn's lens. It was fascinating. Though I am far far far from a mainstream audience. Even most of my friends don't watch much of the stuff I do.
Luke Peterson
He's a fluke just like Blomkamp. Drive and Bronson were okay, the rest was pretentious crap.
Logan Wright
Why would it even need a second season?
Luke Hernandez
Why not give the press the first episode? Why 4 and 5? lol
Ian Watson
i was under the impression there was never any intention to do a second season anyway?
Lincoln Thompson
>All right boys, rape him. What a great creep he was.
I wasn't expecting it to continue anyway, more series should have only 1 season desu
Nathaniel Parker
It didn’t really have an ending
Owen Martin
He's got a development deal with Legendary TV now, his creator owned work could be up in the pipeline.
Parker King
agreed. I prefer it a lot more when every director makes movies the exact same way, continuously aping every other Hollywood film in existence because that's the way movies SHOULD be and anything else is just so pretentious.
It was a nice experiment to look at but it ultimately never really seemed to be anything other than an experiment of what happens when you give a director zero restrictions. He's lucky he didn't shyamalan his own career
Jackson Bailey
>Amazon cancels both TOTDY and Patriot, its best two shows, on the same day Moving pictures as an artform is dead
it would be a 10/10 if you cut all lingering shots and long pauses.
Wyatt Garcia
BUT THEN HOW WILL REFN DISPLAY HIS HACKERY
WHAT ABOUT THE NEON LIGHTING, CUT THAT TOO?
Aiden Perry
too slow to finish young. Shit was like 4 hours of content stretched into 13, shits retarded it's like going to eat good food but at the door they tell you, you have to go through nultiple escape rooms to finally get to your cold food. the main reason people didnt like that isnt vecause they have short attentions spans, its that they dont want to have their time wasted, and this show fucking wastes your entire fucking year
No shit, im amazed it was even considered for a second one. only 1 and a half hours were worth watching. I thought it was a miniseries from the start
Connor Cooper
hope it gets picked up somewhere else, though that seems very unlikely i wanted to witness the resurrection of the teller character on the third day
Jack Powell
I've never watched it It's probably a cool slideshow with great lights and cool visuals, with subpar boring plot
Can't wait for Death Stranding to dab on Refn character >Today Sony revealed more info on Death Stranding's Heartman, played by Danish (((actor))) Nicolas Winding Refn, who literally dies every 21 minutes. Originally revealed in the release date trailer, Heartman is so named because his heart stops in quarter-hour intervals. Heartman is part of the interdimensional BRIDGES team alongside Sam (Normal Reedus), and he wears a defibrillator that consistently resuscitates his stopped heart. >Kojima's rather interesting character lives his life in small 21 minute windows, and his dying actually serves a purpose. When he dies, Heartman travels to the weird inky and ghostly otherworld of the Death Stranding.
Drive is Hollywood garbage with a tiresome (by now) visual flourish. Refn needs to use trite symbolism like his "mentor" Jodorowsky to hide the fact that his movies are devoid of true meaning. His education and creative effort is merely visual. In his first works there are more thematic ambition though. Nowadays he's an extremely competent videoclip director and a copycat artist (but not at the same quality level or as clever as the greatest thief, Tarantino, another direct influence for him) And I like Only God forgives and Valhalla Rising a lot. The best moments of Too Old To Die Young are good imitations of Lynch. I bet that he watched Twin Peaks S03 and he thought: "I can do that too!". The fact that Brubaker co-wrote the fucking thing isn't a good sign at all.
