Nicolas Winding Refn

Refn referred to his bathroom breaks as "potty time" on the set of Drive (2011)

he repeatedly called Mads Mikkelsen to talk about Alejandro Jodorowsky and Seijun Suzuki in between the Pusher Trilogy films

Mads faked ear infections to avoid this

failed his driver's test 7 times and failed the written test 5 times prior. He is unable to drive to this day

took 12 more years to learn how to read

read an entire chapter to Tom Hardy about penis enlargement from Charles Bronson's Solitary Fitness book

asked Hideo Kojima for the hair locks of every famous actor he worked with on Death Stranding

claims to be in contact with aliens via an astral projection method Jodorowsky personally taught him

after each filming day was done, Refn was often seen walking around his sets with a box of cheesy whale crackers, gesticulating his free hand to gleeful babbling and headbobbing

his wife didn't want to vacation in Thailand because she feared the crime

Refn set Only God Forgives in Thailand to make her go with him

cried tears of happiness upon first meeting Ryan Gosling

becomes deeply saddened when asked about Gosling and refers to him as his "third muse in spirit"

wears a towel instead of underwear while filming to "keep the energy in"

refuses to give actors clear directions if "the energy escaped"

invites strangers he makes small talk with to watch movies at his home, and then ghosts them after the visit

repeatedly talks about speaking to Fritz Lang's spirit through a Gypsy medium while vacationing in Eastern Europe

claims that Lang's ghost told him to create a movie about vikings that he couldn't live to direct

lies about being directly related to Marco Polo

lies about watching Andrei Tarkovsky films

lies about being Jewish

Infuriating character. A very unlikeable person.

I met him in a toy store while vacationing in Japan. I wanted to ask him about working with Mads, but he kept changing the subject to William Friedkin's Sorcerer and "pop tart" films. This went on for 20 minutes.
I hate that kind of a man. It's humble people like us who have to carry on and pretend to be modest.

after the Melancholia director Lars von Trier joked about being a Nazi and said he understood Hitler, the film fest's board of directors condemned his comments and declared him a persona non grata.

asked what he thought of those comments, Refn replied: "What Lars said was just very, very mean. Coming from a Jewish family myself, it saddened me that someone would say something like that without thinking what it means to so many people."

when informed of Refn's repulsion in an interview, Von Trier told IndieWIRE, "I've known him since he was a kid! Fuck him."

turns out they're not exactly the best of buds, however — in an interview at Cannes to promote his new film The Neon Demon, Refn had some harsh things to say about the Dogme 95 director. "Lars done a lot of drugs, over the hill," Refn said in a press conference. "The last thing I saw Lars do was trying to tell my wife he wanted to have sex with her. He found some other slut."

Both quintessentially Danish.

we need to start bullying people like this again

I know for a fact Refn believes in ghosts and has a special ghost suit he wears.

Most mentally stable danish person

Rocco lurks Anon Babble confirmed?
I always suspected it was derrick who made the mega64 posts here.

A lot of these 'facts' are blatant lies.

failed his driver's test 7 times and failed the written test 5 times prior. He is unable to drive to this day

lies about being Jewish

Sounds like Lars von Trier, kek.

ONE OF US
ONE OF US

when asked on working with Refn, Mads Mikkelsen stated that he made a "hobby talk" rule on set

this ensured that Refn was limited to speaking about foreign toys and film for only 15 minutes per day

Reminds me of a friend of mine banning car talk because of me and another buddy

wow, he's literally me

if you asked him to pass the salt, he'd detain you for 18.5 minutes

he has no communication skills

if you watch the documentary on him, he's completely insane

if you see him with his crew, he's a raving lunatic

he doesn't say a word, he shuts himself away

his own wife barely knows how to get through to him

he goes shopping in toy shops while everyone else is on set

It really is odd to me as a Dane that both Trier and Refn had such complexes about falsely believing they were jewish tied to their personal identities.

Dreyer was also a Dane

Checks out

Any thoughts on his daughter Lola Corfixen ?

tfw you're a regular White boy trying to do his thing and a panel that looks and sounds like that is in charge of filtering every single one of your career moves

nightmarish

Why the fuck does Rocco always pose like that

She's got strong genes, she'll give birth to gigachads

He's a gigachad

At least the one bitch was convincing them that directors and artists are eccentrics who shouldn't be required to make rooms full of normies feel nice.

Stud wife + Chud husband = Stacy daughter

She's got the hips to do it

I like how Nicolas married and impregnated a woman with a giga-chad jaw/chin to cancel out his weak jaw/chin combo. His daughters are very beautiful, so if he had a son he would have likely been a Chad.

my verdict is that I would have sex with her repeatedly until conception

woman has a gigachad jaw

he has no chin

quintessentially scandinavia couple

so true my latinx hermano, so true

I wish mega64 would be edgy. I can't stand the cucks they've become. Shawn has to be biggest cuck out of all of them.
Unfortunately I think mega64's audience is all libtard lefties.

I wonder what William's ghost will convince him to direct

Ghosts don't exist, Nicky. Friedkin loathed the world so much that I wouldn't come back from watching films in purgatory just to shitpost about his little rivalry with you. Only God Forgives was the gum on Friedkin's boot and you will never make another Drive so long as you live.
Enjoy making 2 hour long fashion commercials on your family's dime, Nick.

bro friedkin made mainstream slop like scorcese. idk why you're touting him to be some big artist

Sounds like a fun guy. I would've ask his opinion on my favourites like Bergman, Leone, Visconti and Billy Wilder.

Go to bed Nicholas. You suck.

I like how these two became close friends even tho they dont speak the same language and Refn doesnt play video games

Changing your typing style won't fool me, Nick. You're not even worthy to make eye contact with Marty. You should count yourself lucky that Friedkin brought you on to make a laughingstock out of your delusional beliefs. What a sick joke you are, Nicky.

Insanely based.

he's just like me

idk why you're touting him to be some big artist

No, I'm touting Refn to be some small artist.

Friedkin actually had legitimate talent. Look at his Twilight Zone episode for example.

It's because they are both aliens. Metal Gear Solid plot is like a work of the reptilian who has watched way too many American action movies and tried to do the same type of story, but due to being not human completely fails comprehend what parts are actually working.

The Exorcist 3 > The Exorcist

Stop embarassing yourself Nicholas.

That's what autism does to creatives with a triple digit IQ, and it's a terrible disease.

I want this information to spread. People this retarded and annoying shouldn't get to make movies.

Look at Friedkin's Twilight Zone episode.

Absolute kino. It should be inducted into the Library of Congress

You're just jealous I'm an real human bean.

Thanks, have a good day faggot

>cried tears of happiness upon first meeting Ryan Gosling

He's literally me...

Kojima is weird and autistic and wants to be a film maker.
Refn is weird and autistic and wants to play with Japanese minifigures.

I'm telling the filmfest board that you said that word on the internet hate machine. You're done.

Weaponized autism.

Stop stop he's already kino

They'll never catch me, I have dirt on all of them. Now if you excuse me, I need to get back to work on my latest film. It's going to be a Kanye West biopic starring Ryan Gosling

I wish Anon Babble never started hating Refn...

Kojima speaks English, just with a silly accent, he also cares more about movies than about videogames.

She could hang off the edge of a cliff with that jaw

Shawn is in full survival mode since he has a family and kids, I get it, but they had it all on a platter and just blew it, it's kind of crazy. The amount of connections that had was astounding.

Imagine if she had a kid with dolph lundgren

Pretty sure he only spoke English at Game Awards because it was prepared and rehearsed.

nah he can speak decent english, he just chooses not to. same thing with miyamoto and miyazaki. if they don't feel like it, they'll play the bumbling jap stereotype and pretend not to know a lick of english.

Fun fact, Refn's half brother's ex-wife is Brigitte Nielsen, who is also Stallone's ex wife and his co-star in Cobra. And Refn used to shill Panos Cosmatos on the boards a lot, who is the son of George P. Cosmatos who directed Cobra, a movie that Refn also shilled on the boards and obviously ripped off to some extent.

Did Refn's dad bully Von Trier or was it the other way round? I don't recall

For better or worse, Von Trier is a goddamn man and Refn is a whelpish something or other.

MFW

Panos is a crazy good director and it's too bad he doesn't do it enough.

This is the exact kind of autism required to make kino. Functional and normal people are too self-conscious to go all-in on their concepts.

he has a distinctive visual flair and is good at worldbuilding but he's sorely lacking in the writing department. beyond the black rainbow and mandy were snorefosts
