Robert Pattinson is transformative and stunning in The Rover and we are all gonna die

Robert Pattinson is transformative and stunning in The Rover and we are all gonna die

UPDATE: Another tweet. Another GAH! Also when I read or hear the word riveting...I think of Tyler! "Why aren't you RIVETED!" Do any of you use this in real life? I do. It makes for peculiar conversation.



Seriously. What coping skills do we have to prepare for ReyRob???



We loooooooove this time. Do you know what time? THIS TIME!



GAAAAAAAAHHHH!!! Review time!!! There was a private screening from Canadian distributor, eOne, in Toronto Monday night and those tweets* popped up afterwards.



Let us marinate on....."ROBERT PATTINSON WAS STUNNING."



I can't take it and this isn't even the avalanche. OMG.

Rotten Tomatoes also included the review from Film Comment on The Rover's page. It makes it the first review on the site and it's FRESH!

From Film Comment's, Maitland McDonagh:

Michôd's sweet spot is the intersection of high and low, the place where genre clichés bleed into unpredictable and nuanced storytelling.

We posted the full article HERE but it's very spoilery. Beware if you enter. As the film is released, we'll start having spoiler posts so you guys can talk about the film and rave about Rob - basically what we do every day, non? ;) We'll also start gathering the delicious reviews as they pile in! It's about time we do THIS again.

WATCH REYROB AGAIN AND TRY AND FIGURE OUT HOW YOU WILL COPE.



*Rob doesn't have twitter. The Rob fraud in the above tweets is just trying to live the dream.

Robert Pattinson's Cannes crusade cheered on and The Rover and Maps To The Stars are highly anticipated

Robert Pattinson's Cannes crusade cheered on and The Rover and Maps To The Stars are highly anticipated 

It's quite a welcomed reversal to read increasing numbers of film critics, bloggers and fanboys embracing Rob's film choices and anticipating their release. The Rover and Maps To The Stars will premiere in less than a week and The Playlist has included them in another list - The 15 Most Anticipated Films Of The 2014 Cannes Film Festival. Their remarks about Rob under The Rover were particularly pleasing. :))

Excerpt from The Playlist:

"Maps To The Stars" (dir. David Cronenberg)
Cast: Julianne Moore, John Cusack, Mia Wasikowska, Olivia Williams, Robert Pattinson
Synopsis: A twisted Hollywood family—successful self-help magnate Dr. Stafford Weiss and his wife Cristiana, who manages the careers of their burned-out child star kids Agatha and Benjie—come into the orbit of an aspiring actor and a movie star haunted by her dead mother.
What You Need To Know: Two years on from the premiere of the divisive "Cosmopolis," David Cronenberg and star Robert Pattinson are back on the Croisette with a film that seems in many ways a sort of companion to that Don DeLillo adaptation. Penned by Bruce Wagner, it's a long-gestating passion project for the Canadian director, which finally got before cameras last year, and the chance to see him biting the Hollywood hand that intermittently feeds him is certainly an intriguing one, particularly with a cast like this. We're excited to see what Cronenberg newbies Wasikowska, Moore and Williams come up with, and to see Cusack get something substantial to do. The Hollywood satire genre has a dicey track record, but if anyone can make something closer to "Sunset Boulevard" than "An Alan Smithee Film: Burn Hollywood Burn," it's Cronenberg, and early footage has been promising, if very much in the chilly milieu of "Cosmopolis," right down to the limo sex.

"The Rover"
Cast: Guy Pearce, Robert Pattinson, Scoot McNairy
Synopsis: In a dystopian near future in the Australian outback, a man hunts down the gang of criminals who stole his car, forcing a wounded and abandoned member of the gang to help track them.
What You Need To Know: For a long time “Foxcatcher” was our automatic response to the inevitable “which Cannes movie are you most looking forward to?” question, but in recent days Bennett Miller’s drama may have been overtaken in those stakes by the second film from “Animal Kingdom” director David Michôd, which sees him share writing duties with ‘Kingdom’ star Joel Edgerton. The reasons probably do credit to the blanket marketing tactics that have seen myriad pictures and clips roll out in the last week or so, but the fact is the pictures look that good, and the performances, from Pattinson and from our perennial favorite Guy Pearce look pretty special too, from this distance. In any case, seeing Michôd return to his “Animal Kingdom” themes of brotherhood, masculinity and criminality, but spread against a broader canvas of societal breakdown would be enough to get us in line alone. And whatever the haters have to say about Pattinson, we're rooting for him and hoping that the less-travelled career path he’s chosen post-stardom pays off in no uncertain terms soon. With this and “Maps to the Stars” both playing, maybe Cannes 2014 is the place that will happen for him.

He's coming guys....

VIDEO: David Cronenberg Talks About Being Like A Father To Robert Pattinson & Mia Wasikowska + MORE

David Cronenberg was a guest on the french programme 'Rencontre de Cinéma' where he talked about Maps To the Stars, going to Cannes again and of course, working with Robert Pattinson!

The interview unfortunately is dubbed but there are quotes from it at the bottom of this post

He talks about Rob at the 15:52 mark.



Quotes from the interview (thanks to Pattinson AW)

David says it's magical and exciting to go back to present a film at Cannes. He is proud to be a Canadian selected for Cannes Film Festival.

David loves the crazyness in the actors. That they are like children playing at being someone else

David says he makes his films very simply. Two days after the shooting, editing was finished!

David recites the poem by Paul Eluard 'Liberty' in French and without mistakes :) The poem has some significance and special meaning in the film.

David said that the film gives a very dark interpretation of what is freedom in Hollywood but he says that we must go see the movie to find out more lol

About Rob and Mia, David says they are fantastic actors, they bring a freshness and a different way of seeing the world. Because they are Internet generation, they have very sharp mind and great wisdom for their age. He says he feels like a father or maybe a grandfather for them lol

David doesn't have movie project for now, he has written a book and 5 producers have already called him to make a film of it.

Julianne Moore was also interviewed. You can listen to her interview over at MapsToTheStars.com (and it's not dubbed)
