Saw The Judge. Liked it a lot. From the reviews I'd heard, I knew nothing about it except that RDJ was in it playing a hardcore lawyer. I expected a mediocre script enlivened only by him. I was wrong. In the wrong hands, with lesser actors, it could have been a weepy, schmaltzy, overdone movie, but instead it was a tightly written, fascinating story of a dysfunctional family, functional but deeply unhappy people, and a gripping courtroom/crime drama, all things I enjoy, made compelling by the wonderful performances of all the actors. Go see it.
There. Non-spoilery review. How often do I do that?

Okay, I did not see that coming. Much as I love B.C., I really wanted Oded Fehr, who actually looks like Doctor Strange.
I might be getting oversaturated with Cumberbatch. While most people I know don't even know who he is!

Me, too. He would have kicked all ass. Though I associate him with Dr. Fate, b/c he did Dr. Fate's voice in the animated JLU.

Not quite. He's purportedly in final negotiations, which is what they said about Joaquin Phoenix.
I like him but he's in everything!

Yeah, I was going with Pedro Pascal.

I tend to agree. Kudos to BC for making his money while he can, and he's got a terrific voice, but the pictured of Oded were even yummier than BC.
