Looper's in the cinema today!

[katikat]

Go and see it, peeps! RT has it at 92% with 119 positive and only 10 negative reviews and the consensus is "As thought-provoking as it is thrilling, Looper delivers an uncommonly smart, bravely original blend of futuristic sci-fi and good old-fashioned action." Source.

Some BTS pics with nice comments from the director himself, Rian Johnson: link.



And a really great interview with Rian Johnson, JGL and Noah Segan (another actor who was in Brick): link.

JGL on Rian Johnson:

"We've watched countless movies together, we've spent endless hours talking about movies. He's one of my best friends in the world. That absolutely helps when you're on set, to understand how he thinks. That's, I think, my job as an actor: to understand what the filmmaker has in mind, and deliver the ingredients that he or she needs to cut the movie together. Rian is able to very definitely communicate to me what he wants."

Rian Johnson on the actors playing the same character:

"It was really Joe wrapping himself around Bruce. That was a decision we made early on and it made a lot of sense to me, because we all know what Bruce Willis looks like. In the way that you know what your mom looks like, you know what Bruce Willis looks like. I figured instead of fighting that, let's use that. Let's give that to Joe, and give that to our makeup artist as handholds to grab onto to fill that recognition."

I can't wait to see the film. I hope it doesn't flop at the box office, that would hurt my soul :(
