He's very awkward when he interacts with other characters. At least, when it comes to emotional situations. But when it comes to practical matters, like that scene when he kills those two hitmen in the motel, he's very focused and doesn't seem to be bothered, at all.
That could make it make sense for me.
But it doesn't mean I'll be able to sit through the movie🤣
Robot-autist
Maybe it's a prequel to the RoboCop universe

Lol! What is this?!
It's the song I think of when I think of Ryan Gosling. Mostly when I think of drive, but wherever he's being a robot.
Listen to the lyrics

Lol. You're clearly not a Ryan Gosling fan.
I like gosling.
I just don't like when directors use him as eye candy with no substance 🤷🏽
I'd actually counter what you said with saying I just hate Drive🤷🏽
I don't think there's an actual story there. Or maybe if they tooled with his character it would work for me.
But in a few movies gosling could be replaced with a plank of wood and it wouldn't change anything🤷🏽
That's a fair point.
I liked The Place Beyond the Pines and Crazy, Stupid, Love.
Lars and the real girl? Half nelson, fracture,
I never saw the notebook, but that's kind on everyone's lists of movies
You’re gonna need your suspension of disbelief powers set on 11 for the notebook. 🤣
Lol yeah??
All I know is the meme

I want this movie to end!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That's the kind of shit I yell during drive
LOL
I’m mad as hell and I’m not gonna take it anymore!!!
That gets zapped
One of the best lines ever.
Fantastic film. Best scene!
Such an important message
Lars and the Real Girl definitely felt unique. I recommend watching Blue Valentine.
Oh shit I forgot about Blue Valentine! He was in that huh
I felt bad for couples when that movie came out thinking it was going to be a lovey dovey date movie
Nah, but it was nice to see a movie that did it's best to depict a realistic portrayal of a relationship.
Realistic though🤷🏽
That's sticking point for my brain in this thread🤣
As I said, it "did it's best". 🤷♂️
I mean... let's be honest, all relationships are dysfunctional to a degree.
Facts. But not necessarily on film
Can't argue with that. Movies always romanticize relationships.
Hmmmm
Yes?
The problem i’m having is i can’t think of a specific example, all that comes to mjnd is requiem for a dream, which is partially romanticized
But i am quite certain some movies are all about fucked up af relationships
Okay, but not all relationships are like that. Every couple fights.
And Requiem for a Dream! 👀 That movie was about the effects that drug addiction has on relationships, not relationships in general.
