'Conversations with Dead People'
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
AICN always says Joss is being approached about everything. Which may well be true--I'm sure his name comes up in a lot of discussions. But it doesn't mean anything, really. Not until there's a name on a contract.
That being said, at first glance, I thought that said Joss was PLAYING Wonder Woman, which struck me as kind of avant garde.
Well, somebody suggested Orlando Bloom.
::dies laughing::
I still think that Gina Torres should play Wonder Woman.
When I was buying my RotKEE at Best Buy this morning, the girl at the register said, "Oh, my sister has a life-sized poster of Lego-bloom from this movie." I said, "I remember doing that when I was a kid--I had a six-foot tall poster of Robert Redford on the back of my bedroom door." I got this blank look, and "Who's Robert Redford?" After running through a few 1970s titles (The Sting, Butch Cassidy, Ordinary People), I mentioned Indecent Proposal (nope, didn't know that one either), and then mentioned Sundance Festival. No go--she was oblivious.
I feel so damn old.
I feel so damn old.
I think the proper response is, "Damn, she's ignorant." I mean, Emmett's 8 and he knows all the Marx Brothers.
Didn't Jackie Chan do that in Gorgeous?
Never saw Gorgeous. But it was definately made after the Chow flick, which I'm recalling was early-mid '90s, but which title I'm not recalling at all.
and then mentioned Sundance Festival. No go--she was oblivious.
I feel so damn old.
No, no. She's an idiot. Truly. You are not old.
How long before the Cast Charisma! cries?
I understand that people love Charisma (hey, I'm one of them), but how oblivious do you have to be to think Joss and she are bestest buds? I'd say there's a better chance of Alan Tudyk being cast as Wonder Woman.
She's an idiot.
Someone working in a video store who doesn't recognize Robert Redford's name? Sheesh. Dropped on head as a child, no doubt. (Apologies to anyone who has been dropped on their head as a child...)
