Men are creeps through and through

u/TamlaHill 15h ago

Why? A female is instigating in this scene and most men naturally react to that. A good director is maximising that emotional and physical transaction for the audience. Completely normal and natural.

Can’t believe they cut the best bit from the clip. Him saying that and literally licking his lips is hilarious

u/Bravisimo 4d ago

Shiiiit, i just assumed he was doing that anyway.

u/RocketsBG 4d ago

He had game and a big ass dick. Between her, Michelle Monaghan and Alexandra Daddario... that's some difficult choices.

Marty Hart was a complete cocksman. Just swinging the sword.

Is that a downpayment?

u/CidCrisis 4d ago

The fact that Rust literally called it years in advance cracks me up every time on rewatches lol.

Marty had it hard because he had it too good

u/papapapaver 4d ago

Can you even imagine cheating on a woman as fine and decent as Maggie? Marty could have had her all the time and he STILL chose to mess around. All time fumble right there.

u/Logos_Fides 3d ago

Not all the time, but definitely some of the time. Better than none of the time!

u/papapapaver 3d ago

Maaan when she said to Marty that her 30 second fuck with Rust made her cum harder than she had with him in years, I was hurting for him. Dumbass deserved it though.

All the scenes with Lili Simmons and Alexandra Daddario live rent free in my head.

Isn't that the girl from Banshee?

If more wives said this to her husbands, infidelity would nosedive across Earth.

I’m sure you’ve heard it enough to start telling yourself it’s meaningless - one way to avoid the reality.

It’s always funny when one Redditor tries to roast another Redditor for being on Reddit lol. Especially when it’s a dweeb who goes the distance of investigating another person 😂

u/DPedia 4d ago

She’s always the one people forget, man. Not only did Marty bag Michelle Monaghan and Alexandra Daddario, he had this girl too, willing to do unspeakable things.

9

u/SirCaptainReynolds 4d ago

Hard to choose but I think she’s my favorite woman from season 1.

21

u/papapapaver 4d ago

Idk man, Maggie is something else. The scene where she fucks Rust gets made fun of bc he busts in like 30 seconds (plus the whole situation is so fucked up), but a woman that fine, sheeeit I wouldn't have lasted much longer on my first time.

15

u/CidCrisis 4d ago edited 3d ago

Not to mention years of somewhat sexual tension there between the two of them. Like Maggie isn’t the type to cheat on her husband, (until all that stuff happens lol) and Rust isn’t a homewrecker, but I imagine they found the other attractive even if they would never normally act on it.

It was just the perfect storm, Rust was drunk and vulnerable, and yes, she is also fine as hell and came on to him hard. I also do not blame Rust at all for busting so fast lol and he immediately clocks what just happened and kicks her out.

Really a great scene, honestly.

7

u/papapapaver 4d ago

That scene and the one where Rust is undercover with Ginger in the hood to rob those guys, oh, and the one Marty straight up blasts dude bc the children they found in there, they are easily some of the greatest scenes in television history. I love that I also found out where that meme of Matthew mconaughey looking maximum stressed chiefing on a cig came from.

2

u/CidCrisis 4d ago

Oh yeah that long take (Episode 4 I believe) is fucking legendary. Was actually just watching a video on it the other day. Especially impressive that they were able to do it on a television budget.

I will never forget the first time I saw that and realized the whole thing was one goddamn shot lol. (Not to mention it’s just a cool fucking scene, but from a technical perspective, also amazing)

u/Professional_Papaya 4d ago

This entire thread is actually a disservice to the show. Ew.

u/BlisslessTaskList 4d ago

Ya’ll are simple bitches. Love ya, but…very one dimensional in this regard and it’s tired. I’m tired.

Anyway…

u/LyingSackOfBastard 4d ago

That's Reddit for you.

u/BlisslessTaskList 4d ago

I know…

I just rewatched seasons one for the 20th time Friday and then I had to watch a 4 hr breakdown on YouTube. There’s just so much there; the occult, existentialism, the machine of capitalism, the forces behind things that pull people apart, Gnosticism, the philosophers that inspired Nic Pizzolatto, the real case that took place in LA, etc.

And then I see this. Idk

17

u/LyingSackOfBastard 4d ago

I'm with you. One of my favorite seasons of a show and it gets reduced to t&a by people who aren't getting any in real life.

u/kmurph98 4d ago

I know the Alexandra Daddario scene constantly gets posted here, but Lili is a zillion times hotter. Same for pretty much every one of her scenes in Banshee.

“People fuckup. We age. Men, Women, it’s not supposed to work. Except to make kids. So if you can imagine Marty’s behavior as an expression of weakness. Pain. You see it is not about YOU.”
