    This just reminded me of how insane that a sci-fi comedy somewhat parody as perfect as Galaxy Quest exists.

    Seriously, that's one of the best movies ever.

    No I don't.

    I put up that few lines spoken in a comedy ever reach the level of Guy's:

    "I know! You construct a weapon. Look around you – can you form some sort of rudimentary lathe?"

    Rickman being cast as The Voice of God is possibly the most brilliant casting decision of all time.

    His voice alone could have carried him to absurd success. Then it turned out he was an incredible actor on top of that.

    Everyone in that movie is exceptional. Like, just brilliant.

    Y'all were talking about Disney's Robin Hood, and apparently Robin's voice actor died.

    Edit: not saying that they're connected, obvi.

    So far I rewatched Galaxy Quest and Dogma. I only had the heart for comedy tonight. I've queued up Perfume, CBGB, Sense & Sensibility, and A Little Chaos for tomorrow. Man, this sucks y'all.

    I intend to rewatch Galaxy Quest at some point this weekend

    and while I enjoyed Dogma back when it came out and would probably still love his role as Metatron, I don't know how I'll view that movie as a whole these days

    only one way to find out I guess

    They're screening Galaxy Quest at the Adler Planetarium in Chicago next month, and it's going to be so fun.

    I was just thinking to myself last night, the delivery of the "By Grabthar's hammer... what a savings" line from Galaxy Quest is just acting masterwork. Maybe I'm being biased due to the circumstances, but Rickman just sells it. The tone, facial expressions, his choice of when to pause on the line. It's just perfect.

    Just rewatched Galaxy Quest last night. I had forgotten how many great actors were in it.

    Is that Sigourney? Holy shit.
    Is that Sam? Holy shit.

    Apparently that was Justin Long's first movie too.

    Does anyone know if he was currently working on any in-production roles? I know he was doing a voice in the new live action Alice movie, and one other thing I believe.

  • SticksSticks I'd rather be in bed.Registered User regular
    Imdb usually has any known roles that are in production listed. The only one on his page is for Alice (completed).

    Just re-watched Bottle Shock. What a solid movie. Chris Pine has such a shit-eating grin. It feels good every time he gets hit. Also Alan Rickman's wink at the airline counter. Goddamn that man is a treasure.

    yea I'd say it's pretty good, Alan Rickman is great, and it is apparently based on a true story.

    I just want to take this moment to say that I love Love Actually and I don't care who knows it. And the storyline with Alan Rickman and Emma Thompson is easily the most realistic and heartbreaking part of that movie. I dislike him more in that role than almost any of his actual 'villain' roles but damn if he doesn't knock that one out of the park too.

    Plus it's responsible for a scene between Alan Rickman and Mr. Bean. I mean come on.

    Love Actually is really great

    Some of the stories are stronger than others, but they're all fun, which is all I ask for from my Christmas romcom

    I kind of find the whole thing outside of Rickman's plot to be weird and gross.

    Are you saying you don't find Rickman's plot to be weird and gross?

    Cuz I'm not gonna pretend the relationships in Love Actually ain't fucked up

    But Rickman's is literally the most obviously weird and gross

    What I meant was, Rickman's plot was the most believable and dealt with in a mature, reasonable way that could have been the whole movie.

    Every single other subplot was gross, not because they were in the movie or oogie, but because they were treated with the same respect that Rickman's was.

    And Andrew Lincoln confessing his love to his best friend's new wife whom he'd never spoken to before that moment a few days after his best friend married her and then smiling and walking away being treated with the same tone as a fractured marriage slowly falling apart is the gross part.
