Well either one so question applies to both
I feel we are getting to that age like my grandfather: Who are these nobodies in movies now? What happened to Paul Newman, Cary Grant, Sophia Loren..you know the greats?
Not that either are extensive list of credits. But more and more I hear people my age ask that about actors, musicians, directors, and such.
More soulless remake garbage for the soulless brain dead masses. Surprised they didn't cast a strong black trans in the lead.
They still want to make money, even from a braindead, soulless garbage. So far, it’s pretty clear; forced diversity is not a money maker, to say the least.
There we go! Only took 7 posts! we can get it down to 2 cant we? I believe in us!
Welcome to nfohump, where we play the game "6 degrees of woke" where we try to, in as few degrees as possible, turn any topic into a woke debate.
Be it about how woke it is, or if it isnt woke, bring up how other things are.
Glen Powell is pretty hot now in Hollywood. Starred in a couple of well reviewed movies. For me somehow kinda a charisma vacuum and non presence on screen.
On the other side Edgar Wright is directing so at least there might be some nice action shots in this. IMO he made only one fluke - that horror movie with FAS Anya Taylor Joy. But Cornetto Trilogy and Baby Driver is the shitz.
