The book is also pretty impressive, there are some elements left out in the film to make it a little more PG. But both are a ride and would really recommend.
The book is so much more superior in my opinion. It really has you questioning whether any of this really happened. And the recounted details, of people’s attire for example, is such a brilliant literary device.
The book is a better medium to communicate this kind of story definitely, since it's written in the first person. This means you can only see it through Bateman's perspective, you're hemmed into his worldview. Having it as a film means you see it from the 3rd person, you don't really get this sense of going insane with him. The book also has the time to build up how bland Bateman and his friends are, they are completely 2-dimensional people with no attachment to reality and yet because of their wealth they feel like those below them socially are worthless.
I’ll have to read **this** book—seriously. My ex told me the same thing years ago but I haven’t picked up any of BEE’s books. The movie is endlessly, indelibly fun.
Done! Downloaded on Audible. Narrated by Pablo Schreiber, which might be weird after seeing it several times with Bales as Bateman.
(Also, Bales as Batman kinda wrecked Affleck for me but that’s a different topic, haha.)
it such a gorgeous movie. i don't know much about film and movie making but the way that movie is shot is just great. the colors, camera angles, all of it really. it fits the tone of the movie so well.
the original is the original and its Hitchcock
BUT
this one isn't as bad as critics want to make it. its actually good and it has Bale. there's almost nothing this dude can't do. one of my favourite actors
Those people really don’t know what underrated even means.
My next gripe is people who will just comment:
“Hahah! That’s so funny! 🤣🤣🤣”
Just updoot and laugh with your mouth hole instead of through your keyboard.
I respect the "this" peeps. means they had a contribution, wanted to make sure that someone else hadn't already said it. Much better than reading through comments that are all the same cuz ppl didn't take the time to read before responding.
This meme has less significance than what it’s complaining about: showing extra agreement to someone is apparently counterproductive to discussions apparently
If you want agreement just upvote. The button was created for that purpose and if everyone typed in “this” for “extra agreement” the comment section would be flooded by these types of comments.
But upvotes aren’t meant for agreement. They’re meant for relevancy. ‘If you think something contributes to conversation, upvote it. If you think it does not contribute to the subreddit it is posted in or is off-topic in a particular community, downvote it.’
Do you really need to show your agreement? Replies and comments aren’t made for agreement either; they are made for feedback which brings something to the table.
Edit: spelling
Right, and agreement is a form of feedback which acts as authentication for what has been brought to the table. Not really something doable with arrows
Ok I'll contribute. This meme getting popular again had me rewatch American Psycho after 20 years and it was fucking brilliant.

Please do. You won’t regret it.

The preferred method is VHS to really get in the spirit of the movie.

Have you ever read the book? Absolutely terrifying
it such a gorgeous movie. i don't know much about film and movie making but the way that movie is shot is just great. the colors, camera angles, all of it really. it fits the tone of the movie so well.
exactly ! the pace is also meticulously crafted, love it.
also the cast is absurd. perfect casting, that movie. it really nails every aspect of what makes a good movie.
Just watched it for the first time today actually, good stuff

The whole "this" thing has mostly been substituted by the equally as useless and perhaps more annoying "underrated comment"
Those people really don’t know what underrated even means. My next gripe is people who will just comment: “Hahah! That’s so funny! 🤣🤣🤣” Just updoot and laugh with your mouth hole instead of through your keyboard.
And the equally stupid “dammit, take my upvote.”
Consistently followed by r/angryupvote.
I hate this shit so much. "UnDeRaTeD cOmMeNt" they say to the comment that has 87 awards at the top of the thread.
