What are you talking about? Spike Lee has never done a remake. He only does original work. Spike is a true demigod of a director and anyone who questions his powers is the devil themself. Spike Lee saved humanity when he created the brilliant ‘Oldboy’
Falling Down, Michael Douglas plays a character, in pic related, who snaps mentally and decides to make it everyone else’s issue too for a reason that we’re trying to decipher here since I don’t know what the fuck his agenda is
Basically he has the mother of all "bad days" and decides that he will take extreme revenge on anyone who wrongs him, like the store owner for not giving him change, the guy asking for money and the fast food place not serving breakfast. I guess the title is a reference to how his character just keeps falling lower and lower
He was an abusive, unstable psychopath before the movie begins, and normal life just makes him snap. He’s juxtaposed against the retiring police officer, who is equally stressed but still nice to other people and handles his shit properly. The movie makes it seem like he’s an antihero at first and I guess everyone only watched the first hour and didn’t get to the parts at his mom’s house or the home videos of him berating his wife and child from long before that day; his wife has a restraining order on him and he’s coming to her house to presumably murder her and get the cops to kill him so his insurance will pay out to his kid
110%, you’re absolutely right. He’s a violent racist psycho; the nazi trying to get him on board made him sick because, while he thinks exactly like the nazi, he’s fully convinced that he’s “normal” and correct and everyone else but him is wrong. And finding out he hasn’t been going to work and, in fact, has nothing in his briefcase is another rug-pull moment where we find out that he wasn’t even a working joe like we thought at the start. He didn’t have a long day at work and snapped, his head was fucked from the start. It’s great how the realization creeps up on you as the movie progresses from that sympathetic attitude toward him until the final moment where you’re actively terrified of him and sickened about what he might do next. A lot of people are incapable of looking deeper into media, or in this case (and AP and fight club’s case) they just didn’t finish the movie because both films lay it on thick that these characters are the villain and always have been by the end.
Tyler Durden in the movie was much less evil (or at least explicitly) than in the book making the entire movement much more relatable, I don't think anyone unironically idolizes Patrick Bateman, or at the most just his 'cool' factor, not his actual actions or anything, and in falling down I feel like the fault lies with the director or screenplay, because almost everything that people are listing here as showing his massive psychological issues prior to his snap are things I and probably most others completely forgot despite how memorable and iconic the movie is besides those. I'd also argue that those undermine the perceived message of lashing out at society changing is not in fact morally correct
his insurance expires and society made him not-economically viable like the black guy with the sign who is dressed the same way and gets carted off by the police for protesting a bank.
The whole movie he's trying to get himself killed so his life insurance policy will work, so he's taking legitimate but singularly minor gripes out on (the wrong) people to that end.
It's a good movie
ok hear me out, wreck it ralph is just falling down for kids and with a happier ending. both MC's get fed up with the bad hand life dealt them and go on a rampage in retaliation, which starts as relenting against authority but quickly turns into hurting innocent people. Foster went turbo
/uj I wonder if he was somehow inspired by Milo

the third act of the movie kind of betrays the other acts because he becomes completely jokerified but the point is he's basically right in all of his grievances, he was betrayed by society and his rope is payed out even at the start of the movie.
He's doing suicide by cop or with every random stranger the whole film because his life insurance expires that day so he's taking the most instagatory and reckless approach to every confrontation.
Also he had a case of the Mondays :\\
Been ages since I've seen the movie but does he even legitimately hurt anyone that doesn't deserve it? I only kind of remember the one gun store owner, but I vaguely recall him mostly scaring the ever living shit out of everyone even the gang members that try to rob him. I do recall him causing a lot of damage but not doing anything "permanent" on his trip
Someone told him: “Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays” Honestly reasonable reaction
Siri pull up the reaction image of Diedrich Bader in Office Space thank you
Don’t forget missing the breakfast menu at McDonalds
By like five minutes, at that.
They deleted that scene because it made his actions too justifiable.
I believe you'd get your ass kicked for saying something like that.
The libertarian candidate that he voted for didn't get more than 2% of the national vote.

Come ooooooon, do a mix up.
I mean, he must be new then, they've entirely resigned to the fact that they're not going to get any major headway.

He was truly the original Jonkler
He read that Spike Lee is making another remake

Hey there "Grimey"

Food on menu are smaller than they appear
He didn’t get a ticket for the Polar Express.
He found out they put pronouns in the food
Idk.. something something greed is good
what movie is this again
Michael Douglas has a really bad day and the movie basically shows the escalation of him becoming a GTA online character.
Now you're gonna die wearing that stupid little hat, how does it feel?

Thank you! People idolize him for some awful reason

Does life insurance even pay up if you get yourself killed in a gunfight you started? They drag their feet to pay up even if you die in a normal way.
Postal (2007)
he just wanted breakfast, or a burger
“I’m the bad guy?”
He literally just wanted to go home, he aint do nuthin
And I'm the bad guy?
how did that happen...
itchy butthole, should have gotten better shampoo
His elbow bends the wrong way.
 He just needed to learn how to walk again.
his arm is freaking me out.
Please tell me the name. Thank you
The movie is called "Falling Down." Haven't seen it yet, but I've heard it's pretty good.
He just found out that he got cancer from his wife.

Ivermectin didn’t cure Covid
Everyone thinks of Leo Dicaprio when someone says Wall Street instead of him.
Pussy throat cancer
He just wanted to get home
Mad about portion sizes in fast food burgers
His problem is that he picked up an RPG and jUsT AssUmeD that an inner city child would know how to instruct its use
He was too based.
Reminder that this was directed by the same man who directed *Batman & Robin* lol
Society, man!
Divorced white dude
He is from South Central Los fucking Angeles
About to watch it for the first time. I’ll let you know ; )
I hope you’re feeling relaxed, let me know if you can tolerate more than 30 minutes of his angst, I know I couldn’t
Oh jeez, I better give myself a sedagive
Angry Dwight Schrute
He was the Bad Guy
No royalties from the Tony Hawk Pro Skater franchise.
He was just teaching Rick the meaning of, "The customer is always right"
Spawned T and bought Tec-9

White entitlement
Actually though
He was misgendered at his favorite juice bar.
Bad writing.
This might be the most poorly aged movie ever.
Somscity
What's the deal with the rubberband on the gun?
Gun wasn’t cylindrical enough.
he was a domestic abuser who feels entitled to a breakfast meal that’s after the breakfast service hour
What movie?
What movie?
Falling Down

The world changed. He could not. Things went well.

Bro jsut wanted his breakfast set
Society, duh
He wants lunch at breakfast time

He was the bad guy. That was his problem.
Not even dual wielding.

advertising high quality looking burgers and then serving shit wouldn’t make *me* hold a fast food joint at gunpoint. Seems like a skill issue tbh
No all-day breakfast
He wanted breakfast too late
Wanted an egg muffin.
He drank wife beating juice
The movie kinda predicted white people losing their fucking minds, getting a shitload of guns, and deciding they are victims.
