I have to admit, it took me a while to realise that they'd submit Chris for an Oscar too. But just about everyone gets submitted. I just...he was fine. But nothing amazing.
Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.
I did think Hemsworth showed previously unguessed depth of acting talent; however, Brühl was the standout. I don't think I'd put the former up against Forest Whitaker, but the latter could hold his own.
I just noticed Bruhl's name opposite Benedict Sexypants in Fifth Estate. That will get me to the theatre faster.
Good job!
Speaking of whom, Hobbit part 2 trailer is out.
SO MUCH to nitpick (new Elf character! Legolas for some reason!) but oh man, I could listen to Smaug taunt Bilbo all day.
I love Bendypants Crumblybatch's Smaug voice.
Oh I'm looking forward to the Bilbo-Smaug snark-off.
Aaaaugh, Mirkwood is going to be such a bad section for me. (I'm assuming we're spoilerfonting this stuff?)
If it's not in the trailer, I guess so.
I'm also guessing that if the first movie didn't raise the thread, the original Middle Earth haven has passed into the West, right?
eta: returns from trailer--that looked like Mirkwood to me--am I remembering wrong?
Nope, I don't think you're remembering wrong. I'm going to need reports from people about where I'll need to close my eyes during the movie.

I asked about this last year, and nobody seemed interested in bringing back the old thread.
