I could not have asked for a better Star Wars cast than this. Out fanboy is on top of things. This should be something special.

I agree the cast in this movie looks solid.

Are you saying the majority hasn't seen "12 Years a Slave" ??

Yeah, probably. It was obviously very popular but I would think people who haven't seen it still outnumber people who have.

Couldn't pay me to watch it.

It's a Best Picture winner, it's not some random independent film .. it's not that far-fetched to think a majority (at least on here) would have seen it

Hmm maybe that's my bad then, on thinking it was a given it was for the most part largely seen

Paid to watch it? I could be paid to watch it---but otherwise---no.

It was too much to ask that the Academy members who voted for it to be Best Picture actually watch it. Why should I waste my time?

What thread is this?

Oh yeah, a Star Wars thread....anything goes. Carry on.

Because it's a good movie?

It was juvenile amateurish crap. IMO of course. Gravity was robbed.

I fail to see what was juvenile or amateurish about it. For what is worth though, I also liked Gravity.

Doesn't matter. It could have the boom mic visible in 70% of the shots and had actors pausing mid-dialog to ask what their next line is and it still would have won Best Picture.

I enjoy your cynicism.

Don't forget racist or homophobic. The PC trifecta is in there somewhere, you'll get branded it and then dismissed sooner rather than later i suspect.

As for the blonde, she does look a bit mannish in GoT, but looks quite pretty in the publicity picture. I'm reminded of Charlize Theron in Monster. The role in GoT might call for her to not look so delicate, I don't know..not that far into the series yet. (Watching on blu)

I also agree on the Mary Jane needing to be a pretty actress like the comics, but beauty is subjective.

For unknown roles, I care about talent more than beauty...unless the role calls for it, or they're playing someone of a specific age/gender/look. Then loos become important. And really, on a movie board people are REALLY going to say looks aren't important???? Talk about denial.

Thats funny, because I thought Gravity was the most overrated movie of the year. Not a BAD movie - It was okay, but nothing special at all, and certainly nothing award-worthy.

Surely you can't be biased towards anything to do with the movie...
For someone who admittedly hasn't even seen it, you sure have alot of opinions on how horrible it was/is

Close-minded people and their opinions always are -worthy Lord Method Man is no exception

I admit, I'm disappointed at all the pictures look like its in Tatooine. I'm sick of Tatooine. Optimistic, but I really want to see a different planet.
