If you're at a party and Dafoe walks in the room, everybody looks at him, that's for sure. Yeah, he's an attractive motherfucker.

The title of this puff-piece is utterly misjudged. Willem Dafoe's mouth is perfect for Willem Dafoe's face. Of course it look's weird when shopped onto the face of a young female. I do not like this article.

I saw the original at a midnight show in a cinema filled with rowdy, Northern drunks. They cheered the battle scenes and made jokes during the speaking parts but I swear that you could hear a mouse fart in there during Spock's death scene. I was in tears, and I still cry at the end every time I watch it. I fucking

In fact I'll go further - it was, for me, the most disappointing film of the last 10 years. Especially as the first one was such a lovely surprise. And because the original is in my all-time top ten. I fucking hate Into Darkness!

don't watch 'Into Darkness'. it's dreadful.

sorry, Simon. Didn't know you were listening…

I agree. Sad truth is, the Cornetto trilogy films could use any number of actors in his role, but Nick Frost is irreplaceable in them. Also, I hate his MI films. I think he only got the gig so they had someone relatable to testify what a normal, down-to-earth kinda guy Tom Cruise is. (Billy Connolly had the same

…and they have pretty corpses, (especially if their clothes got ripped off during the struggle).

Great. Something bad happened to someone so you figure it means you shouldn't stop to help someone because it might be a trap. Do you carry a gun?

I'm old enough to remember the first LCD watches. They weren't as big as this fat bastard. And, from what I understand, you need an iPhone to make it work. WTF? Can you really imagine Jobs presenting the launch for this piece of shit?

SAW2 cannot be easily dismissed and I quibble that its sound is now commonplace. Aphex Twin is the master, and all others are mere acolytes. Tim Hecker, Oneohtrix, et al, can only dream of being worthy of comparison.

Your critique is every shade of wrong. If you take away the villain from any thriller you're going to have a problem, Einstein. As for Last Tango…, I can only surmise that you prefer it because you're 73 years old. That was shit TV for pensioners to suck toffees to.

The only possible reason for seeing this movie at a cinema would be so that, on exiting, you could say to the people waiting for the next screening, "I'd give it ten minutes if I were you".

Hip-hop, like every other new musical form of the 20th century, burned brightly for a decade or two but is now just a trope. Wiz Khalifa doesn't matter; he is irrelevant. (As is Kanye West, Jay-Z, Drake, et al.)

My point was obtuse, but meant to convey my frustration at EoT winning so many plaudits when - SPOILER - it is ruined by the happy ending, whereas I could immediately recall half a dozen films by two of my favourite directors that didn't wimp out at the end and, as a result, were much better films. My original post

Scanners, Videodrome, and Existenz - vs - Robocop, Total Recall, and Starship Troopers. Edge Of Tomorrow - Edge Of My Asshole, more like!

I think they got away with using just ten on Elysium.

Regardless of this tittle-tattle, my original point stands; with the exception of Sherlock Holmes, (I can't imagine TC's English accent), each could have taken the others roles. They have similar mannered, neurotic, acting styles.

It's easy to imagine Tom Cruise in the lead. He wouldn't have made a very good Tony Stark though. Or maybe he would have, who knows. I've always thought of Tom Cruise and Robert Downey as interchangeable.

For younger readers, I would like to point out that feminism once meant more than having lots of shoes.
