I don't think anyone mention it but the reason Ben Affleck was chosen was because David Fincher saw a picture of him smiling (like when they are taking pics in front of the missing poster) and thought the same thing as Dylan. The guy has that creepy aura
He also was inspired by Scott Peterson who was convicted of killing his wife Laci. They are really similar and the two stories are really similar (minus the plot twist lol)
Honestly, Idk if knowing about your family/spouse/friend's blood type is a meter about how close you are to that person, I know most of my family blood type but I forgot or mixed them all the time =v like come on its human brain if you don't write it down, it not gonna stick lol
i hate how people always talk about how beautiful a girl was after she is murdered, kidnapped etc. to gain sympathy (or saying "oh no she was so beautiful why did she kill herself") like being beautiful makes someone a better person or more worthy
Her pretty white rich girl privilege is actually a huge part of this storyline. If she weren‘t in that position there is no way her disappearance would have been that big of a deal
It's always said by families of having seen someone grow up to get murdered or being the murderer. "He was always so kind and loving, I don't know how this happened" (I watch true crime)
they did this with a woman who died while working in italy. the media was like 'how could this happen to such a young beautiful woman and mother?? 😭" it was disgusting
Yes when I watched it I saw it was "based on the novel by gillian flynn" and then right after "screenplay by gillian flynn" Thats when I thought this is gonna be good I never read the novel btw, probably should've read it
Ben Affleck is either an EXTREMELY good actor, or he's actually a creep and this role was MADE for him because I was creeped out by him from the start.
This is like the foundation that The Afterparty is built on. Everyone is telling their own story of the day before the murder and you have to find out which one is unreliable and lying
man I dont have any friends either...... Like I dont talk to people everyday except for my cousin and only for games........ people would have a difficult time finding me and pro is that I never leave the house so I wont get kidnapped. Con is, no one would know if I die
“She’s bright, beautiful and kind” Dylan: how does this help? How does this help anybody? Me, having watched many many seasons of Criminal Minds: ACTUALLY when someone’s missing, you want the unsub to hear these things as they try to dehumanize the person, for the slight chance that they’ll regret what they’re doing when being reminded of who this person is
Actually the whole point of the press conference and saying she was ‘kind’ and ‘considerate’ etc. is so if the person who took her is watching, it humanises her and the more they know about her, the less likely they are to harm her.
@@KillerQueenDopamine …but it’s actual criminology? It’s a main reason behind real conferences and interviews having spiels about the victim’s personality. Unless you’re dealing with someone incapable of *any* empathy, making an emotional connection with your kidnapper is the safest and smartest move you can make, statistically speaking, as many cases of the victim being unharmed and released were a result of them forming a bond with the kidnapper.
One of those rare moments when the movie did perfect justice to the book. I might have to say that Rosamund Pike's acting made the movie version better. Crazy what a good casting can do.
@@Kasia120612 Definitely a great read !! I personally discovered the book after watching the movie. Even still, I felt the suspense and curiosity like I would reading a book for the first time. Give it a try !! (:
Not Dylan calling out Ben's character for smiling at the press conference of his missing wife, as if his hero Flynn Rider wouldn't do the exact same thing😂😂
I just wish the ending is Amy saying "happy anniversary" because her whole missing and putting suspicion on Affleck spiel is just another of their anniversary treasure hunt, only this time she went deep.
@freak bitch he’s a youtuber....making a youtube video... he’s not gonna show every single part of the movie. There’s a lot of interesting scenes he left out cos he’s making a video...there is no misogyny about editing a video and taking out scenes. He could’ve been picking his nose or something during the scene and took it out for that reason....
@@drei_cee Nah he's said misogynistic things before. Like his take on feminism in one of his commentaries. I think it's mostly just ignorance on his part. He probs doesn't wanna get called out for it again so he left the monologue out of this video.
@@jordanlevitt1638 can you give examples of that? the only one i can think of is that endgame video, where he got a lot of backlash for commenting on that one scene. as a woman and feminist myself, i actually found myself agreeing with him, about how marvel likes to disregard female characters and ONLY ever show them when they want woke points from the audience. every male character was properly written and developed, while the female cast was just put together hapazardly in a scene, like "here are your female superheros, you had your moment, now shut up and watch the men do all the stuff". i'm not aware of anything else, so i'd like to know if he legit said something bad.
Gillian Flynn stuck around to do the screenplay, and I think it was the right choice - after all, she knows Nick and Amy best, of course she would know how to adapt them for the screen. Ugh, Amy is one of my favorite villains, she just makes my hair stand on end, especially when she plots to frame Desi. Even knowing that she's faking it, seeing her "scream" for help is still gut-wrenching.
Quick note: when someone gets kidnapped or something when there’s a press conference they ask parents or whoever is there to say nice things about the victim so it humanizes them to their kidnapper. It’s not very likely to work but it’s still increases the chances of them being found or returned to their family
I honestly feel like he’s liked most of the movies he’s made a commentary on. Most of the ones he thought he would hate he ended up liking, like A Cinderella Story and She’s The Man lol
Then he misdirected us with netflix "Italy" & blue tongue, while actually promoting audible! As he did on new year, saying he wants to post 2 videos per week, while he is now almost posting 1 in 2 weeks.
9:05: About the parents describing Amy in a good way during the press conference: I believe investigators encourage this so that in case the perpetrator is watching, they might be able to sway them or guilting them into either returning the victim, surrendering, or at least make a mistake. Even if it's not the perpetrator directly, the accomplice or a potential witness could be swayed into giving information by humanizing the victim.
"When I think of my wife, I always think of her head. “What are you thinking? How are you feeling? Who are you? What have we done to each other?" This movie is haunting. 10/10.
My boyfriend in college once tried to help me feel better on a bad day by taking me to the movies, and when we got there we decided to see whatever show was playing next. Neither of us knew anything about this movie aside from the critical acclaim it was receiving and that the director was David Fincher, so we were down. I have to say going into this blind has inspired me to do that more often, because the halfway switch was seriously *amazing* (wink)
Not everything in Amy’s journal is a lie. @ the end of the movie when Nick gets angry enough he throws Amy up to the door, HARD. Sure, he was pushed to the limit when he reacted that way…But he is quite capable of hitting Amy. The book gives you a much better idea of what a user Nick was, but basically he drained all of her money, cheated, and most likely also hit her because he did have a temper. Now, none of that means that Amy still isn’t a sociopath. Other incidents in her life support that she is definitely a manipulative and narcissistic person… but Nick was not some innocent, dumb schmuck. He was a POS. Amy has other victims I feel sorry for, not so much him.
I don't know about the book, but in the movie he is one thousand percent justified in shoving Amy against the door. This is a woman he hates, who when he tried to break up with her peacefully resorted to *staging her own murder by him* - intent to ruin him and send him to prison for life, maybe even give him the death penalty - who only relented because he publicly begged her to do so and bowed to her control, and in 'returning' to him framed and murdered *another* innocent man who will now always be known as a kidnapping rapist. This woman then forced herself back into his life, took absolute control, and while he is *still trying to escape from her* she reveals she's gotten herself pregnant with his baby without his consent. She is a rapist and a murderer, and she is effectively holding him hostage. He would be justified in way more than angrily shoving her against the wall once.
@@Thedarkbunnyrabbit the book explains that Nick doesn't love Amy but stays because he can't imagine life without her. So ya, her other victims are way more sympathetic than Nick - Nick is a schmuck.
@@realSimoneCherie That's how it be sometimes. The book better communicated his flaws. It's much like Secret Smile. The books make it obvious Brendan is gaslighting everyone and killing people because he's crazy, while the adaption (I forget if it's a miniseries or a movie) fails to properly convey that and you're left to wonder if he really is this crazy killer or if he's an unpleasant man that the protagonist has become absolutely fixated on and unfairly framed for murder (she frames him either way, but one is justified and the other isn't)
This movie was shot in a small town about an hour away from me, I remember when the local news was losing their mind over it... They don't see too many famous people come around so it was a big deal... It was such a big deal that they sold this book everywhere in the town when it was being filmed...
I actually love the, I want to crack open your skull thing. It is an extension of cute aggression. When you adore something or someone so much you want to pull them apart and make them a part of yourself. It also showcases the thin line between love and hate and how similar emotions at their most intense can feel.
"Across all of youtube, all of the millions of videos that are uploaded, ours was trending." I love how Dylan says ours instead of mine. At this point we're just one big family and I love it
I’d love to see Dylan do an escape room or a murder mystery case file game or something. Watching him get so exited as he slowly pieces this story together is adorable.
I believe its Loosely based off the Scott Peterson (I don’t know if that’s his last name but it’s something like that) case. His wife who was 8 months pregnant went missing while “he was fishing”and the body turned up near where he would go fishing. He was also having an affair. This was back in 2002. I believe he’s been convicted of killing her
@@jennagouvin5516 I just read the book and actually wondered about this since the stories are similar, but the author has denied that she based the story on the Laci Peterson case specifically
i’m at 9:42. my prediction is- her parents kidnapped her and are holding her hostage to have something to write another book about with the amazing amy character. will update. i was, extremely wrong. thank you for reading.
Never thought such a thing, your prediction is very impressive but yeah completely wrong lmao since the day she disappeared I knew that Amy was faking it because it was obvious
This movie came out right before (about a year) when Ben was banging his nanny. And I believe I watched this in 2015/2016 when Netflix had it and all I could think of was how Ben played this role TOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD. This is the Ben I picture when ppl talk about him lmao
foreal! I thought we had another “ides of March” situation on our hands but I think we’re good now that Dylan has finally acknowledged him and he is still alive. 🥸
You expected him to relate? This concept sounds alien to him because he doesn't relate to this idea and most men don't relate to this because they've not really enforced it.
the way dylans knowledge of film is so extensive he understands the most subtle of details and can predict what most wouldnt be able to, yet he is able to appreciate a good film is what makes this the best movie commentary channel.
On the press conference nick spoke on the past tense “Amy was...” that is a huge no no in criminal defense! Shows that you already know that she died Thanks for the likes everyone! Love from Lisbon!
@@iriswaldenburger2315 I think it's cause if the person is missing you don't know it the person is actually dead or not so you use the present tense because you should be hoping that the person is still alive. If you use the past tense, it's like implying they're already dead or that you believe they're dead.
Also can we take a moment to appreciate how good this movie "looks"? The cinematography is beautiful and the lighting is exquisite. David Fincher never disappoints when it comes to this stuff.
Yes! And the attention to detail! Just look at how Amy looks up at him at the beginning of the movie, eye brows raised, seemingly innocent and unsure. Fast forward to the ending, same exact shot,only this time when she looks up at him at him, Her eyes look into his confidently and she's sporting a ever so slight smirk. Excellent cinematography ..and acting!
Interview: "People call you a perfectionist. What do you think about that?" Fincher: "I think people, calling others perfectionists, are just lazy." THANK YOU DAVID ! And also, that bright red "STOP" right above the red button in the elevator. Like: Stop this drive into hell, when you still can.
this movie was so good, i've rewatched it several times and nothing will get me over how well done it is, i love a movie where even when i think i know where it's going it can still surprise and entertain me.
Dylan* faking an Italian accent* "I'm italian" *Do the most cliché Italian gesture * Me, an Italian: "congratulations, you exceed the text, you're Italian now! Remember, with great power comes great responsibility"
The end scene shows he's sleeping with her again-and is comfortable enough to do that now-also I heard that the author will write a sequel from the POV of their kid, 10 years after everything happened
The screenplay is so brilliant bc David Fincher wanted it written by Gillian Flynn, the author of the book, and I think both worked really well together, it's a really captivating film 👌🏼
For sure they need to make a Gone Girl 2 ... where he wishes up and they try to off each other to keep the kid.... but plot twist the kid is a psychopath like the mum.
Man I love watching Dylan so much. There's just something about the over-the-top but somehow self-deprecating arrogance and pure dumbassery of this man that just fills me with unending joy
I love how you worded it and completely agree. Also find the audience-Dylan relation endearing, everyone's used to his dumbassery and poking fun at him but they're also sweet and pretty chill. It's a good combo.
yeah it's the same with owen wilson, adam sandler, jim carrey, robin williams, jonah hill, eddie murphy, mo'nique, steve carrell, etc. i feel like people don't understand how much acting talent it takes to actually be funny. most of them have the ingenuity to do serious stuff, too
this is one of the example on how to write characters. they're not caricatures. they act like real people and what desperate people could do if they're psychopaths.
I don't think anyone mention it but the reason Ben Affleck was chosen was because David Fincher saw a picture of him smiling (like when they are taking pics in front of the missing poster) and thought the same thing as Dylan. The guy has that creepy aura
Damn, that's interesting trivia.
That’s actually darkly hilarious.
Is that the same reason they chose him to play batman😂😂😭
He's always put me off, even though I think he's gorgeous and a great actor lol I like him, buuuuut...
He also was inspired by Scott Peterson who was convicted of killing his wife Laci. They are really similar and the two stories are really similar (minus the plot twist lol)

This is a woman he hates, who when he tried to break up with her peacefully resorted to *staging her own murder by him* - intent to ruin him and send him to prison for life, maybe even give him the death penalty - who only relented because he publicly begged her to do so and bowed to her control, and in 'returning' to him framed and murdered *another* innocent man who will now always be known as a kidnapping rapist. This woman then forced herself back into his life, took absolute control, and while he is *still trying to escape from her* she reveals she's gotten herself pregnant with his baby without his consent. She is a rapist and a murderer, and she is effectively holding him hostage. He would be justified in way more than angrily shoving her against the wall once.
@@Thedarkbunnyrabbit the book explains that Nick doesn't love Amy but stays because he can't imagine life without her. So ya, her other victims are way more sympathetic than Nick - Nick is a schmuck.
@@realSimoneCherie That's how it be sometimes. The book better communicated his flaws. It's much like Secret Smile. The books make it obvious Brendan is gaslighting everyone and killing people because he's crazy, while the adaption (I forget if it's a miniseries or a movie) fails to properly convey that and you're left to wonder if he really is this crazy killer or if he's an unpleasant man that the protagonist has become absolutely fixated on and unfairly framed for murder (she frames him either way, but one is justified and the other isn't)

I would do a lot more than slam her against the door. A life in jail is better than a life with a sociopath.
This movie was shot in a small town about an hour away from me, I remember when the local news was losing their mind over it... They don't see too many famous people come around so it was a big deal... It was such a big deal that they sold this book everywhere in the town when it was being filmed...
The 'Cool Girl' monologue lives in my mind rent free
People talk about 'cultural reset' a lot, so much so that the term has lost all meaning. But the cool girl monologue was a CULTURAL RESET. PERIOD.
It was perfect
Men always use that, dont they? As the defining compliment. She's a cool girl.
I randomly think "I'm so much happier now that I'm dead" every once in a while
I literally memorised it😂😂
THE FACT THAT YOU SKIPPED OVER THE COOL GIRL MONOLOGUE
I KNOW IT JUSTIFIES AMY'S POINT SO MUCH MORE AND ITS SO WELL WRITTEN
That shit lives in my head rent free
Man moment tbh
@@kat-ju8jb tbh
What is it
I love that suddenly his mouth is just blue as a smurf. The 5 pound bag coming in clutch
I actually love the, I want to crack open your skull thing. It is an extension of cute aggression. When you adore something or someone so much you want to pull them apart and make them a part of yourself. It also showcases the thin line between love and hate and how similar emotions at their most intense can feel.
"Across all of youtube, all of the millions of videos that are uploaded, ours was trending." I love how Dylan says ours instead of mine. At this point we're just one big family and I love it
Yeah, like a gang!...but without the crime.
@@sonyasiteny6260 or is it...

@@natt3975 exactly... totally possible...
That's a pretty smart way to make the viewers feel closer to the creator & to motivate them to do it again
It’s when Dylan’s roasts tone down and he gets invested in the story and goes in on the analysis *chef’s kiss*
wow it was weird to see comment with so many likes without any response
That’s when you know the movie is good
I’d love to see Dylan do an escape room or a murder mystery case file game or something. Watching him get so exited as he slowly pieces this story together is adorable.
His portrayal in this role reminds me so much of real-life wife murderer/family annihilator, Chris Watts; except Watts actually did it.
I believe its Loosely based off the Scott Peterson (I don’t know if that’s his last name but it’s something like that) case. His wife who was 8 months pregnant went missing while “he was fishing”and the body turned up near where he would go fishing. He was also having an affair. This was back in 2002. I believe he’s been convicted of killing her
@@jennagouvin5516 I just read the book and actually wondered about this since the stories are similar, but the author has denied that she based the story on the Laci Peterson case specifically
I love when Dyllan actually enjoys what he's watching.
Same
Same! It's v wholesome and makes for some particularly interesting commentary!
I’m saying like he really looks interested
I know right
Yaaaas!!!
Finally Dylan can have all the murder twists he's always wanted.
Dude don’t spoil it to him
And he gets his 'misdirect' predictions right 🙌🏽
@@eddibyden5910 I don’t think it can be spoiled if it’s an edited video that he did probably a few weeks ago lmao
@@mip5041991 you don’t say. Thanx for clearing that up for me. Silly me
@@eddibyden5910 it’s ok , I know everyone can’t have it all🤷🏽♂️😵💫
Gillian Flynn is my favourite author. She is truly iconic. Her plots are so deep.
Hi
I love how happy Dylan gets when he’s actually enjoying a movie
AHHH I LOVE WHEN DYLAN ACTUALLY DOES GOOD MOVIES
I was so glad seeing him actually enjoy it
Heathers was a wasted oppurtunity
i like it but honestly the bad teen movies are my favourites for him to watch
NO FR HE NEEDS TO DO MORE
@@belliella788 same
dylan adding murder to any plot is funny, but dylan actually having the murder twists is even funnier
That’s what I’m saying like he wants everything to he nursed or sum 😂
😅 5:16
He already saw the movieee!!!
Dylan: "He walks like a big guy"
Dylan.....he is bloody huge. 199cm. He is a big azz man.
i’m at 9:42. my prediction is- her parents kidnapped her and are holding her hostage to have something to write another book about with the amazing amy character. will update.
i was, extremely wrong. thank you for reading.
great guess tho lol
Never thought such a thing, your prediction is very impressive but yeah completely wrong lmao since the day she disappeared I knew that Amy was faking it because it was obvious
“I’m writing my own book, that will be released in approximately ... 30 years”. We’ve finally got a date troublemakers!!!🕺🤣
What's the date?
@@moxiemaxie3543 "approximately 30 years" 🤭
@@EmmaxHobbits I was kinda hoping for a month. Im guessing ....May lol because its May now duh Cindy
This is me with the book i am writing, and for wattpad lol
Imagine him watching knives out - it would be a string of high pitched "misdirect"
He needs to watch Knives Out!!!
Can he do it pls?!?
I need Dylan to watch this so I can finally have my two joys: Dylan and Chris Evans
Yes knives out is such a great movie
@@haleyzuniga6394 he does but like, he has already watched it, multiple times, so it would be kinda boring tbh, because he already knows the ending
God bless Gillian Flynn for writing the amazing novel this is adapted from.
This movie came out right before (about a year) when Ben was banging his nanny. And I believe I watched this in 2015/2016 when Netflix had it and all I could think of was how Ben played this role TOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD. This is the Ben I picture when ppl talk about him lmao
I feel like Dylan will love Knives Out since he’s such a big fan of mysteries
Yessss he would!
@@zoeadlyn I know! Unfortunately he doesn’t take recommendations.
i was thinking the same thing! id like to see him watch more good movies. him geeking over how good it is is actually realy fun
Knives out was good, but it was pretty straightfoward and not that mindblowing compared to gone girl
@@evanbarton52 i thought knives Out was mind blowing
Julius being mentioned after months, at least we know he's still alive 🤣
foreal! I thought we had another “ides of March” situation on our hands but I think we’re good now that Dylan has finally acknowledged him and he is still alive. 🥸
I think it's due to that ooga booga channel video 😂
yeah I thought it was so cringe at first but then I got used to it and I really missed julius the last months 😂
I remember seeing this movie on my flight to LA and I never forgot the eerie feeling it gave me. The story is just so well written!
"Lemme hear it in THICK letters" is probably the most accurate description of watching any movie with subtitles
the fact that he didn't go over the cool girl monologue makes me so mad
guys don't get it like we do
You expected him to relate? This concept sounds alien to him because he doesn't relate to this idea and most men don't relate to this because they've not really enforced it.
That part was amazing. The music, and montage was perfect.
@@sabrinac8453 umm, i do and i'm a guy
@@sagnik3556 you’re not like other men! You’re special.
that cool girl monologue keeps me up at night, ITS ICONIC
Sure, but Julianne Moore deserved it like no one else that night.
Uhhh not really. It’s well written and all, but the delivery is just decent. The author really gets the credit for that one, not the actress.
the way dylans knowledge of film is so extensive he understands the most subtle of details and can predict what most wouldnt be able to, yet he is able to appreciate a good film is what makes this the best movie commentary channel.
"She crazy" ...summary of gone girl
Dylan: * says ben affleck doesn't give good vibes *
Also Dylan: * Gets extremely excited when he is going to propose *
dylan: *is secretly JLO*
Ben Affleck really does give off sketch vibes though
@@maggie3842 Dicaprio too but hypocrites like you dont talk.
Stan Marsh456 tf are you on?! Nobody’s talking about DiCaprio lmfao
@@stanmarsh4566 Huh? Wtf is wrong with you?
On the press conference nick spoke on the past tense “Amy was...” that is a huge no no in criminal defense! Shows that you already know that she died
Thanks for the likes everyone! Love from Lisbon!
Exactly! I think his lawyer points that out to him later if I'm not mistaken...?
Why does that show that you know anything??? TF! You can literally only talk about a missing person in the past
@@iriswaldenburger2315 I think it's cause if the person is missing you don't know it the person is actually dead or not so you use the present tense because you should be hoping that the person is still alive. If you use the past tense, it's like implying they're already dead or that you believe they're dead.
Isn't it sound like crist watt case
plus is had only been like one day? it’s like he was trying to implicate himself.
26:12 🤣. “So you’re saying you want me” 🤣 with the psycho eyes and everything.
genuinely one of the best audiobooks i've ever listened to!!!
i love how after the sponsor break, dylan suddenly had a blue tongue.
I was looking for this comment! Made me laugh
@@vios2077 With no actual explanation xD
well he still has that 5 pound sour patch bag...
Secret sour patch eating is going on!
Also can we take a moment to appreciate how good this movie "looks"? The cinematography is beautiful and the lighting is exquisite. David Fincher never disappoints when it comes to this stuff.
Yes! And the attention to detail! Just look at how Amy looks up at him at the beginning of the movie, eye brows raised, seemingly innocent and unsure. Fast forward to the ending, same exact shot,only this time when she looks up at him at him, Her eyes look into his confidently and she's sporting a ever so slight smirk. Excellent cinematography ..and acting!
Interview: "People call you a perfectionist. What do you think about that?"
Fincher: "I think people, calling others perfectionists, are just lazy."
THANK YOU DAVID !
And also, that bright red "STOP" right above the red button in the elevator. Like: Stop this drive into hell, when you still can.
I knew from the videos he made with Madonna that his movies would look great.
@@soaribb32 True!
Fincher blue!
if Dylan had a podcast i would listen to it religiously. It doesn't even have to be about movies, he's just so fun to listen to.
It's so good to see Dylan genuinely enjoying a film
> says the ending of Gone Girl makes this story stay with you.
> has already seen it and forgotten the plot
wow yeah i didnt even realise that, haha
rare is the day Dylan is so genuinely appreciative of a story, when it's not fuelled by roasts or nostalgia
And murder lmaooo
this movie was so good, i've rewatched it several times and nothing will get me over how well done it is, i love a movie where even when i think i know where it's going it can still surprise and entertain me.
13:11 I just noticed he has a blue tongue… how long does he have a blue tongue?! 😂
Dylan* faking an Italian accent* "I'm italian"
*Do the most cliché Italian gesture *
Me, an Italian: "congratulations, you exceed the text, you're Italian now! Remember, with great power comes great responsibility"
it's always nice seeing other italians under dylan's videos io fiorentina tu?
omg, Im also from Italyyy. vengo da Pavia, voi?

The end scene shows he's sleeping with her again-and is comfortable enough to do that now-also I heard that the author will write a sequel from the POV of their kid, 10 years after everything happened
That will be amazing!!
Wait actualy???? That sounds so amazing. Excited for that.
In the book he’s actually scared of her and she threatens the kid to keep him under control
@@Sired2Klaus the kid hasn't born yet in the book. What u talking about?
@@percyweasley9301 Threatens to make herself miscarry
The screenplay is so brilliant bc David Fincher wanted it written by Gillian Flynn, the author of the book, and I think both worked really well together, it's a really captivating film 👌🏼
I love your excitement, Dylan
i wanted to see dylan's reaction to the full cool girl monologue so bad damn
Me tooo
Wait does he not??? I just started the video
@@AirQuotes ugh nooo he doesn't! so disappointing
I gotta admit, the blue tongue caught me off-guard 😂
I'm assuming it was the blue sour patch kids
@@user-si1zi2ne7o absolutely 😂
He's still not done with them
at 2:38 you can actually see all of the pens lined up.
For sure they need to make a Gone Girl 2 ... where he wishes up and they try to off each other to keep the kid.... but plot twist the kid is a psychopath like the mum.
Dark Places is the sequel to Gone Girl.
i love how dylan understands movies so well like even the littlest details. it makes watching him so satisfying.
I love that bout him but it really did not do it for me when he did not interpret jennifers body well
Dylan: "Ben Affleck just has those murder vibes, he seems like a guy who should be investigated."
Also Dylan: "Is that mean to Ben Affleck?"
I love watching Dylan watch actually good movies because you can honestly see his face light up
I love how even when he actually builds up to a natural segue he makes it goofy and unnatural
ben affleck was in the news a lot prior to this role so the fact that he's playing the role of Nick Dunne fits perfectly
why was he in the news a lot?

Man I love watching Dylan so much. There's just something about the over-the-top but somehow self-deprecating arrogance and pure dumbassery of this man that just fills me with unending joy
He’s the smartass kid in class that you just wanna hate but they bring far too much entertainment😂
I love how you worded it and completely agree. Also find the audience-Dylan relation endearing, everyone's used to his dumbassery and poking fun at him but they're also sweet and pretty chill. It's a good combo.
You said it.
i just like the way he talks. he always slightly slurs his words and so do i. we also both have speech impediments i think
you know how long i've been wanting to watch this -- this is the best way to watch this
Dylan: *Talks about Tyler Perry switching lanes with being funny to acting serious*
Me: That's just... what a good actor/director... does ?
He's funnier in his serious roles than he is in his comedic roles. The same goes for his movies tbh.
@@weirdguy1495 Yea, especially when he's mad. He sounds like Madea sooo much when he's mad 😂😂
yeah it's the same with owen wilson, adam sandler, jim carrey, robin williams, jonah hill, eddie murphy, mo'nique, steve carrell, etc. i feel like people don't understand how much acting talent it takes to actually be funny. most of them have the ingenuity to do serious stuff, too

this is one of the example on how to write characters. they're not caricatures. they act like real people and what desperate people could do if they're psychopaths.
I believe one of the best movie casting! The actors are perfect for their role
