I mean
So do I
Most of us do, probably
I think it's just because he seems like such a cool dude
That's ok though it turns out this is the case for a lot of actors who are very successful
I was talking about the new Tomb Raider with a friend just now and I realized that this isn't quite correct
When Tomb Raider (the movie) hit, I saw it in theaters (my first date!), and for me, Angelina Jolie was that role, but I'm now realizing it's because I'd never seen her in anything else at that point in time. That was my first exposure to her, aside from that whole media kerfuffle where she kissed her brother the wrong way or whatever
And now I also realize that I've never seen Alicia Vikander in anything and kinda want this to repeat itself? I'd very much like my first exposure to her as an actress to be as Lara Croft
pretty fantastic
The number of actors that aren't just playing a amped up or slightly bent version themselves in movie after movie is staggering. Some of them are pretty darn well regarded too. The people that actually disappear into a role are always my favorites though. Gary Oldman will always have a huge place in my heart for his ability to so fully become a new character time and again.
To be fair, its still hard to "play yourself" in a movie
I am not saying it makes you a bad actor, after all believable emotion is vastly more important than anything in a perfomance.....but it does at times create a treadmill effect for me. Where an other wise interesting movie can have the draw back of maybe not wanting to see that person again when I just saw them in something else, or even worse is when they are a person I don't really care for in particular and they are in a movie I otherwise might enjoy. Where as if they were the type to disappear into a roll that phenomenon would be less pronounced.
It doesn't make them a bad actor...but it does make choosing a movie they are in less likely for me at times.
That's a shame. When I was young my parents had bought me some giant almanac that I used to bring to grade school and look through for random interesting info with friends. I still remember we came across the section that included some of the best or most successful porn parody titles of that era for some bizarre reason. On Golden Blond and Field of Reams will apparently stay with me until I die. 25-ish years later and they still come to mind immediately when the subject comes up.
This quote tree I'm creating right now is more faithful to DC source material than the WB films
I submit I was the dumbest because one of my first dates with my now wife was to go see Carrot Top's movie.
hachi machi
naw man
seeing chairman of the board is something you gotta do
One dvd review group once advised that the porn parody dvd of Adam west Batman came with a cut that took out the porn scenes and just had the acting.
He said it was fun.
I don't know about their plots or whatever, but I like their Harley better at least.
I thought it was a little dumbed down compared to the previous ones. I felt like the previous movies always made at least an effort to be somewhat plausible and the new one...
"Look, a smudge with yellow hair. ENHAAAAANCE" (this is a pet peeve of mine)
"There's a phone in the same room as the laptop! I can use it to delete everything!" (At which point the 4 of us at the theater all went "HOW" simultaneously)
Bourne getting smashed in the head with a 20lb barbell and just shrugging it off is a little ridiculous, so is the SWAT truck plowing through 100 stationary cars
It wasn't a bad movie by any means, it was a perfectly entertaining generic action flick. I just had higher expectations than "generic action flick" from a Bourne movie.
You can't give someone a pirate ship in one game, and then take it back in the next game. It's rude.
It stinks!
Buy my book!
i like french films
pretentious, boring french films
When the porn costume has about 10 times as much material to it than your design, you might have to do some thinking.
I prefer to spell it b-o-r-e-d
If your friends like that movie they like it because it says bad things about Hilary and don't care if the bad things makes sense or not.

all i need is the sweater at this point
Maybe you should try dessert instead.
I'm still at like Jeff Goldblum in a costume level Brundlefly.
Tomb Raider is one of my favorite franchises ever so I'll go see whatever they put out
I first saw Jolie in Hackers
I first saw Vikander in Ex Machina
Both are incredible
I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.
Tatum will be playing the mermaid

Steam
I'm sold already
That thought got into my head even while still scrolling past the headline.
they had fantastic chemistry
