Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
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.
Wrong thread...
Bob's brother knows him, as well-- he edited Angus's ill-fated live-action pilot.
Sometimes you are having a blah day, and something like this comes along and restores your faith in humanity:

I think I'll revisit Deadwood the next two days, while the BF is off in San Diego covering the new Cadillac launch. He may be staying at the W hotel and getting wined and dined by car execs, but I get to watch Swearingen's blow job monologue again. Frankly, I think I'm getting the better part of the deal.
Awesome. I envy you your Deadwood re-watch.

Is his colouring off? (I'm kinda not good at the subtleties, I find). He has demonstrated he's good with accents.

It's not his colouring so much as his features - those read very Irish to me, especially in comparison to someone like Ralph Macchio.
Given that, there might be deeper issues, but from a physical standpoint... eh.
Yeah, I'm blind to much of that stuff. It's not that, say, all white people look alike--more that they all look different and I don't see the commonalities that people use to characterise groups. I see the crossbreeding more than anything else.
Of course I'll be happy to point out black people that I swear have to be West Indian and not American, so it's all in where the eye has spent the time.
What deeper issues?

Yes. (For me, it's a function of working in theater - trying to cast a family, for example, you start having to pay attention to the commonalities.)
