Looper - A Day in the Life

[@minkworks6143]

What a movie. One of the best and most underrated scenes in cinema. Practically a short film in itself.

[@sammcamm8319]

So basically drugs turn you into Bruce Willis

[@derekstaroba]

Absolutely absurd speak one clear sentence...

[@yokiryuchan7655]

yep.

[@barnacleboi2595]

Yes, drugs turn you into Wruce Billis

[@toads5200]

Bruce wayne

[@aresef]

This is one of the last times he flexed his real natural charm in a film.

[@RodsAndAxes]

Give us a Looper 2 that is all about Joe's life as a Chinese hitman.

[@elijahvigil7467]

And with a parallel story of different timelines as how Cid (The Rainmaker) rose to power

[@MaynardKey]

@@elijahvigil7467 fuck that would be awesome

[@namekiz3199]

@@elijahvigil7467 a shame we might never heard of these films in the future due to more and more people knew the concept of time travel is stupid

[@Renwoxing13]

@@namekiz3199 by then people will realize that even romance is stupid too the. Right?? No more romance movies either, too stupid. It’s is on a “hormone let go” world

[@MrOdaniels]

I want to see Abe's life

[@davidhodges1153]

I love in this original version of Joe's life, after he saw his old self, he still packed up and left to live abroad.

[@Paraprax]

But in this timeline, he went to China. The self he saw tied up and dead presumably went to France(and thus never met his wife or escaped his handcuffs to go back and try to prevent her death).

[@Morfe02]

[@nilesknives6484]

I will never unsee this concept.

[@Carloshernandezmma]

Every decision changes the future

[@AlbertKimMusic]

Probably my favorite film next to inception and the theory of everything

[@realdavidpain]

00:28 - the moment when you realise you will look like Bruce Willis in the far future...

[@ridethasno]

They could make a prequel that focuses on the Rainmaker and how the whole time travel and loopers started.

[@crev1018]

this is my fav scene. used the song to choreograph a ballet solo

[@johnseklecki2175]

Love this movie for some reason.

[@MrGrace]

That's exactly how drug usage progesses. First youre using it socially to enhance the fun and the party. Then you graduate to using on your own to keep yourself functioning throughout the day.

[@politure]

This song is 'a life in a day'.

[@andrewmcdonald1614]

So one day he paid for plastic surgery to look more like Bruce Willis?

[@richos07]

The excessive drugs and partying really took a toll on his appearance

[@MaynardKey]

1:30 Before Covid 1:36 After Covid

[@ezlmonqzy9650]

😂

[@WalkrFilms]

The transition at 1:40 like wtf they look nothing alike it's literally a different person now

[@newyorkpotioncastle]

Alexander Walker drugs

[@sirgarence]

If they'd started receding his hair earlier it would have been more believable, but with the prosthetics that JGL wore it was still plausible enough.

[@Sheryl510]

Apparently drops make you bald like a New York Lawyer.

[@MrDash711]

I definitely agree, but in its defence that transition is 13 years later - plus drugs have been known to make you look more like Bruce Willis

[@ajdoyle9559]

LOL

[@yseson_]

Best part of the film

[@WD-zk6fg]

That was the least genuine act of flicking the bird finger I have ever seen.

[@charlesderosas5577]

1:39 tell me that doesn't look like mickey rourke?

[@tylerdurden639]

As a looper, if you paused 2 to 3 seconds before each shot, just waiting for a mumbled "IT'S ME!" or some code word or gesture that only you know. --- KNOWING that if you hear or see it, that it will be yourself. At which point you don't shoot and get to know your older self. That would be kickass. If you had to do some detective work on who the holy terror was you could do it as a team. The two would have cleared the whole timeline issue right up. Plus with young Joe's savings and old Joe's investment knowledge, they could make a fortune after they whack the holy terror before he's a problem.

[@Blackrazor_Daystar]

Easy to say but hard to do

[@barnacleboi2595]

Well yes, but then we wouldnt have an entertaining movie to watch.

[@elijahvigil7467]

True but sadly, time travel itself is a one big fugazi. Even if they did team up and stopped the Rainmaker from rising to power, that would probably cause their universe to explode because its stated earlier in the film that the Rainmaker started closing loops. So no Cid/Rainmaker, no one and I mean NO ONE, would've been set back in time.

[@richos07]

That’s what happened with Seth. When his target arrived, he heard it singing a tune that his mom used to sing to him as a boy. That’s when he knew it was his older self. And we saw what went down after that.

[@konahrikk-9793]

Would've loved to see more of the rainmaker

[@dazz14gooner]

Same! There’s definitely opportunity to do a sequel to this focusing on the rainmakers rise

[@pakaton1711]

@@dazz14gooner That would be boring tho. He'll just explosive people with his power

[@elijahvigil7467]

@@pakaton1711 but it would still show alternate timelines of how he rose to power, even if old Joe never shot his mom or his jaw off. I'd like to see how he took down the crime syndicates which old Joe claimed he did back in the diner scene.

[@elijahvigil7467]

Old Joe calls young Joe a killer and junkie, yet he continued to kill by being a hitman for the Chinese syndicate and didn't get clean till a couple years before his wife was killed and he was sent back in time. Hypocrisy at its finest

[@apierre6]

It's not hypocritical if you're literally talking to a younger version of yourself. 😂 He's just acknowledging the fact that she was a crappy human being for most of his life and he needed his wife to get him on a better path.

[@mikeman4223]

@@apierre6 Old Joe was even worse until the end. Young Joe proposed that he would just never go to China, avoid his future wife, and save her life. Old Joe wouldn't have it because he was still a self-absorbed monster that preferred to kill children instead of going for that option. Does that sound like something that is on a "better path"? That's not actual love, he just wanted to have her for himself.

[@jackhadroom4540]

Very good point - it's self-criticism.@@apierre6

[@nathanhollow0]

the sigma grindset

[@marumisu9560]

He spent all the money in 6 years. I wonder if it's possible that this timeline of him didn't save as much cash. Also wonder if every single timeline is different.

[@Rorschach003]

The problem is that it was easier to make Joseph-Gordon Levitt look like Bruce Willis than it was to make Willis look like Joseph-Gordon Levitt

[@dbanks128]

I wanna see a movie about the rainmaker!

[@luisvictoria]

Bruce Willis with hair LMAO

[@roberthales2579]

REALITY BITES

[@tylerdurden639]

What possible reason would he have to go to China? You know you got found, the guy suggested that you were in China, that would be the absolute LAST place I would go. I would be a nomad... a tumbleweed. When I found a nice place hidden in the middle of nowhere, or on a boat in the middle of the ocean. Good luck finding me.

[@pedrosantos6183]

He would originally go to Europe, but a chinese Studio offered them to film in China in Exchange for covering some of the costs of production

[@spaceballs72]

Maybe cause gold and silver has strong purchasing power in China? It does make economical sense.

[@Jay-qb9gi]

and China is a surveillance state, he would’ve been found a lot earlier in China than in France

[@Who-Uhm-Cares]

Well the dude from the future told him to go to China. Meaning France might have been destroyed

[@DavidBrito-cz7oh]

Something happens which causes China to be the only viable location. Abe wasn’t talking as if it would be more difficult, he was talking as if he knew something we didn’t about the future.

[@XxtekiexX]

[@snakeeyes8777]

Why is the music sound incorrect and why is there a foreign narrator? Why didn't you upload the scene as it was? Why did you alter it?

[@Kreepinsgirl]

[@FreerDHabit]

Bars are money in the future?

[@zepperman2679]

They're good and silver bars

[@MrOdaniels]

Chinese yuan is global reserve currency and the loopers (hitmen) use silver and gold as its untraceable and can be sent back in time. Money changes appearance over time so sending money from the future would look different and be considered counterfeit when they try to spend it.

[@Vlm293]

Year 10 to 23 must've been ROUGH
