Yeah and Ben Kingsly does lots of cheap B movies, he's cool like that, it's managed to get him interesting roles over the years.  However, this time he looks like he's thinking "Maybe I went to far this time."

Settle down there.  You seem to be having a bad day.

I've spent the weekend in the company of various actors and been listening to the stories (one poor girl was in Batman Begins and regaled me with a few tales, the most important of which is that her 'scene' - if you want to call it that - got left on the cutting floor.  Shame).

However, my point is valid - a lot of people seem to take the whole 'they are artists, struggling for their art and cutting whole cloth from the tapestry of media' thing a little too seriously.  (can you think of anyone here that fits the bill ?)  It's nice sometimes to be reminded that, despite occasionally scoring multi-million pound deals and winning awards to the acclaim of millions, that these guys are getting up in the morning and making faces to pay the bills.

Just like the rest of us.

However, in the interests of keeping 'teh hate' flowing :  Fuck you, you complete cockmunch.  Seriously, Go fuck yourself you undressed wank.  Awa, dare I add, and bile yer heid.

I like that Ironwood meets an extra who has her scene chopped and I have to suddenly be polite in referencing 'Sir' Ben Kinglsy's facial expressions?

So what if he did it for a paycheck?  His IMAGE ON THE BOX does not look happy to be there.  Get it yet?  It is possible that he did it for a paycheck AND wishes he hadn't and regrets it - you know?  IF the best image they can get of him in costume looks like he ate too many prunes then it probably says something about his state of mind and performance during the movie.

Why the fuck am I explaining this?  Oh, yeah because Ironwood needed to work his hollywood liason into the conversation even if it involved using a crowbar.

This movie couldn't possibly cause Haemish physical harm.  I've got one for you.

Quenten Tarinto presents an Uwe Boll film, written by George Lucas and starring Tom Cruise, Roseanne Barr, and -through the CGI Wizadry of ILM- John Wayne.

Er, Kingsley never looks happy. Not in Dave, not in Schindler's List, not in Death and the Maiden. Etc. You get the drift. It's as he's always thinking "I could have been a world-renown pianist but noooo!" or something like that.

Title: Re: Dear Haemish: We Wish To Cause You Physical Harm
Post by: HaemishM on June 30, 2005, 11:37:41 AM
No, no, see I'm immune to any of the damage this thread should have caused, because I'VE SEEN THE FUCKING TRAILER OF THIS STINKPILE.

Oh God, it's not even House of the Dead worthy. I weep for Michael Madsen, who could have traded all the cred from his performance in Reservoir Dogs for a serious action movie thing, and instead chose to do Species and other such illustrious movies, as well as ESPN's Poker show. I WEEP I TELL YOU. Though it could be worse, he could be Tom Sizemore and be forced to wear the worst Mo wig EVER as Pete Rose in Hustle. So he's got that going for him.

But Ben Kingsley. He has NO EXCUSE for being in this movie. There are very few things he couldn't be cast as, and yet he seems bound and determined to be in this movie. His agent should be committing hari kari for ever having taken Uwe's call.

And Bloodrayne? Luckily, it isn't like this franchise has any respecibility whatsoever. The first game was decent, but then they decided that the main character should show her pixelated boobies in Playboy to promote the sequel. Thank you, Idoru, but no. That's just retarded. Of course, add on that Uwe can't even get the fucking setting right (you know, that whole 1930's Louisiana not bearing ANY GODDAMN RESEMBLENCE to whatever 17th century Eastern Europeon Fuckelsvania they decided to set it in) and you have a recipe for EBOLA IN A DIXIE CUP WITH A CHASER OF EXPLOSIVE DIARRHEA.

With Thunderbirds and now Bloodrayne, I keep thinking maybe Kingsly is a huge closet nerd and just has no sense of what works in a script on nerd specific movies.  Thunderbirds was not bad strictly as a kid movie.

Nearly everyone loves Sean Connery but he's also proof that some people just can't say no.  Maybe Ben Kingsley is the same way.  I saw an interview once with Sean Connery and he said, as a defense, that he felt it was better to be working than looking for work.  I suppose some people will take nearly anything if it's all that's on the table.

Silly people... why work if you don't have to?  If I had as much money as Connery, I'd say no to everything.


Title: Re: Dear Haemish: We Wish To Cause You Physical Harm
Post by: Riggswolfe on June 30, 2005, 01:45:20 PM
Sean Connery has said no to lots of stuff. He turned down the part of Gandalf in Lord of the Rings for instance. Problem is, he either has no clue what will be a good movie or has the worst agent in the world. Next to Ben Kingsley's.

I have also seen the trailer Haemish. It was 5 minutes. Which was about 4 and a 1/2 minutes too long. Which is weird. I liked the actress in T3. I like Michael Madsen. This trailer made me want to pull my intestines out of my own anus and strangle myself with them.

Coming soon, Spiderman 3 by Uwe Boll.

Ok, now THAT causes me physical pain. I LIKE Jason Statham, though he has been cast in some truly bad movies over here, and generally misused to the nth degree. But an UWE BOLL FLICK? BASED ON DUNGEON SIEGE, a derivative clone of a deriviative hack and slash game? GAHHHH FUCK ME!

I eagerly await word that Dungeon Siege will be based in modern day San Francisco, and Statham will pack twin pistols of death that he carries on his pack mule name Paco.

I don't think "Hollywood" gives him any money (DS doesn't have a distributor for this reason). He executive produces most of this crap, so he likely gets most of his money directly from investors, likely in Germany. For some reason Germany provides MONUMENTAL tax advantages for producing films through German companies.  I think these movies are all gigantic tax shelters.

Yeah, that was one of the many stupid decisions of our administration. They wanted to boost the german movie business by providing tax cuts to movie projects and by creating a movie fund for those projects. The law involved was so badly made that subsequently every fucking hollywood studio got money out of this fund and was tax exempt in germany if they used some kind of german-based production company. Look at the poster of some hollywood blockbuster, there is a good chance that you'll find the logo of the "Deutsche Filmförderfond" (german movie fund)

This won't work any longer however because the law got scarpped.

We have a certain breed of totally stupid politicians, they have great ideas (or at least what they themselves deem great) but the laws they make are so buggy that you can hear most lawyers in germany cringe with frustration.

Dungeons and Dragons had Jeremy "The Mission" Irons in it. Just mentioning. See you forgot your sarcasm green.

Then again Irons does tend to end up in not exactly art fare (http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0268695/) most of the time.
