Thrawn please.

Fassbender would be a perfect member of the Sith.

Too young.

And too soon.

They about to make this sick bastard Todd Skywalker jr.

Mark Hamill-Looking Breaking Bad Actor Jesse Plemons “A Serious Contender” For Star Wars Episode VII Lead

Jesse Plemons is, to date, best known for his role as Todd in Breaking Bad. Todd wasn’t the most delightful of characters.

Plemons himself is well liked, at least round at my place and over the last few minutes, for eliciting the Google search suggestion jesse plemons matt damon. Ha.

It isn’t just Damon that Plemons looks a bit like, however. I’ll go along with The Wrap‘s observation that he looks like Mark Hamill. I can see it. Or maybe that’s just because they said it… The power of suggestion.

Why this is a concern right now is because Plemons has tested for one of the lead roles in Star Wars: Episode VII and next week, the story goes, he will be auditioning again for JJ Abrams.

So, that’s great for Plemons but, also, to be realistic, it sounds far from a done deal.

Still, unnamed agency sources have apparently called him “a serious contender” for the part. I can see it happening.

And, now I’ve seen his face, I can see the role being some kind of Skywalker Junior. Ben Skywalker, as per the pic above, borrowed from Wookiiepedia?

Eh. P’raps. We’ll see. And I wonder, based again on a sort of facial features comparison – though one that’s now a phase removed – if this was the same role Matt Smith was linked to?

Good luck, Plemons.

Thats my dude but no.

Plemons ain't no Jedi

Let Todd be great.

Thrawn please.

I think I called this a long time ago after I read the book. But I doubt it happens. Too good to be true.

I just saw the negotiator. I wonder how much hype that movie would get if it was released today. I loved it. We don't get enough great action thrillers anymore

 

[ecruteakcityboy]

Just copying and pasting what I put in the Her thread

Just got back from seeing it and driving home I was asking myself so many questions.

What makes a relationship successful?
Is this the world we will be living in, where we are so apart from one another and occupied by an os?

I'm going to have to watch this again so I can fully grasp the philosophical themes in this movie.

Good movie but I kind of wished the writing touched on the sci-fi aspect a little more. That's all.

Joaquin Phoenix was phenomenal and I cannot wait to see him in Inherent Vice. Oh and Amy Adams is so damn cute embarassed.gif

Definitely buying on blu ray!

Caught Short Term 12 last night, very great movie..enjoyed the content but felt they concentrated on the young girl a bit too much, could of explored some of the other children a bit more, regardless it was definitely a good movie and Brie Larsen had one of my favorite performances of the year.

quenEXCLUSIVE: Here’s a bit of fun gossip surfacing in Golden Globes weekend. Whenever Quentin Tarantino completes a new script, it’s an event accompanied by great fanfare, partly because his scripts are so damned fun to read. The drums have begun beating on his next film. Here’s what I am hearing. None of it is entirely confirmed but I believe it. It is definitely a Western, and the working title I’m hearing is The Hateful Eight. Tarantino has finished a draft, and is in the process of showing it to a handful of actors he wants for the picture. He usually does this, gets feedback and goes back in and hones his work. I’m so far hearing he’s got two actors in mind.

bdernOne isn’t a surprise: Christoph Waltz, whom Tarantino helped transform from an Austrian character actor into a two-time Oscar winning star of Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained. The other name I’m hearing is Bruce Dern. I sure do hope the latter is true. Here is a guy who, at the age of 77 and after a career worth of distinguished mostly supporting performances, has emerged as a Best Actor frontrunner in Alexander Payne‘s Nebraska. I sat with Dern recently, and he is as razor sharp as ever and has an encyclopedic memory for Hollywood lore and his place in this world. This has made him the perfect candidate for a ‘comeback’– he is still so on his game — and a handful of directors who are resourceful in their casting like Payne and Tarantino are very astute in recognizing that. Tarantino likely has several months left to hammer out the shooting script so nothing gets finalized until then. At that point, Harvey Weinstein gets involved in funding it, most likely with a partner for foreign territories. Sony Pictures was the most recent partner, with Django Unchained, after Universal shared Inglorious Basterds with TWC. No comment from the principals on this, but stay tuned.

News isn't concrete enough to warrant a thread but..

music to my ears

Man, i'm dying to know what "the Hateful 8" is.  It'd be cool if it was an "And then there were none" theme

my favorite ep. of Gunsmoke called Ten Little Indians that stars Bruce Dern and uses that theme

I'll try to take pics later...Most of these I got for $5 from the BestBuy upgrade and save program over the years...Favorites I would say are Band of Brothers, Gladiator, Shawshank....I have probably watched Goodfellas, Superbad, Old School, and Tropic Thunder the most...Sorry I'm keeping them all ..I would have had more, but my house got robbed last year and they took around 40-50

Yo, this lady on the Golden Globes is completely wasted or just plain DGAF accepting her award
