Xander ,'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.
Yeah, I thought there was probably an E instead of the A, but couldn't be arsed to check. Which I realise sounds really bad, 'cause my post looked like I was trying to be Pedantry!Girl, but I just think that Chewy is such a frakking splendid name that it should be known.
(I'm rather startled if I got the rest of it right? Go team me!)
You mean Christopher Ecclestone? (Or is there no final 'e'? I can never remember.)
The 9th James Bond. . . . hee.
Yes! Him! He could maybe do it. He's a very versatile actor. Mind you, I don't know that he'd be up for genre work - he got cold feet over Doctor Who pretty fast, didn't he? And Bond is pretty much genre.
Has anyone seen Heights or The Beautiful Country? If so, how are they?
Jack Davenport gets my vote. For - well anything, actually, but in this instance, for Bond. Because - gah.
I also think he should be Snape instead of Rickman. I love Rickman with a huge love, and I'm glad he's got this high profile role, but he's very much older than the character really should be.
Huh. I never would have thought JD for Snape. Goth!Steve would be pretty hot, come to think of it. I do see the Bond and I second your -gah.
It looks pretty sweet. You'd think Natalie Portman with a British accent would be just like having Kiera Knightley, but it turns out they have different voices.
Have you noticed that there's a council of goths running Warner Brothers?
Batman Begins, The Corpse Bride, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Phantom of the Opera, V for Vendetta...

Good point. And good goth.
Is the Tim Burton/Johnny Depp pairing the one with the most frequency of a director working with a certain actor? Jim Cameron and Bill Wassisname worked together a bunch. Rodriguez/Banderas. Tarantino/Roth. But I still count more Burton/Depps.

Ever? Truffaut did the Antoine Doinel series with the same actor playing the same character for something like 7 or 8 movies (I think one is a short movie). Started with 400 Blows.
post-IMDB: Jean-Pierre Leaud
Deniro and Scorsese.
Jimmy Stewart and James Capra. (also with Hitchcock and Anthony Mann)
Fellini and Marcello Mastroianni.
Woody Allen and Diane Keaton.
Bergman and whathispuss? Max Von Sydow.
Siegel & Eastwood did five movies together. Or six, if you count Eastwood directing Siegel.
