Literally the whole point of sarcasm is like to emphasise the opposite point. Like if you want to say that something was really stupid you have to say:
"Yeah that's clever."
If you want to say that a girl is really ugly then you might say:
"Yeah she's so pretty."
The point of I'm Still Here, an exclamation mark, filmed by good-time pals Joaquin Phoenix and Casey Affleck, is that Joaquin Phoenix is not an irritating, self absorbed, neurotic naughty.
Phoenix bamboozles his way through the movie pretending to be a drunk, pretending to be pretentious, pretending to be an absolute twat.
It leaves a bad taste in the mouth. A taste like semen. For two reasons.
Its the same semeny tang left by movies like Oceans 13 and Cannonball Run II, movies which were actually made from little slices of testicle. These movies are about how fun it is to be a famous person. CCTV cameras are trained on prepubescent millionaires as they have ostentatious fun together. The same semen has been weaved into a movie in the case of I'm Still Here.
Also its like "The Dude is way protesting too much." It seems like way too much effort for a previously cool man to expend on proving to people that he's not a twat. I for one never thought that he was a pretentious person. I sure as hell do now.
What a bumhead he is. No scratch that. He's a boring cockhead.
