I don't really get why he needs to compare?

[slaughtermatic]

Because they asked him lol

[ahkna]

Just because a question has been asked doesn't mean you have to grant the premise of the question nor answer it.

[slaughtermatic]

That's very true but viggo doesnt have your class lbr

[trekkiepetrelli]

wait how can you even compare these two films....

that's like me comparing little miss sunshine to transformers bc there's a famous yellow car in it lmao

[la_loony]

That van is just Bumblebee on vacation so it's all the same franchise and no comparison is needed.

..why is he even talking about it?

[buzzybhn]

He got asked about it in the interview. People last year made the comparison to Cronenberg and now that they have Cronenberg at Cannes this year, they're going to make a million more comparisons.

I loved Titane but I also fully understand why someone wouldn't; his reasoning is weird though.

Did you even watch the movie Viggo? The main character pretends to be a guy's missing son. From what I remember, even after he finds out she's not his son he still cares about her.

Titane got me back into The Kills & have this song on repeat:

Heart of a Dog is my favorite off that Kills album, so good.
