Has everyone lined up to present their hot take on the Will Smith/Chris Rock thing from The Oscars? No need to get into separate groups for who you think is right or wrong, we’ll just be going through the entire population of the planet alphabetically to ensure both that everyone gets to throw in their two cents…
“...why else would Jim Carrey, someone who was not at the Oscars (as far as we know) and has no real stake in the drama, be getting headlines for talking about it?”
The tone of this post sucks. Fuck off, man.
Jim Carrey weighed in because he was asked about it. 99.9 % of these stories about celebs weighing in on things (are Marvel movies cinema/Oscars slap, whatever) is because they’re asked about it on press junkets to generate headlines...like the one Carrey’s doing for Sonic 2. But you know this.
You know, it occurs to me that if you don’t think that a celebrity’s response to something is particularly noteworthy, then you have the option to simply NOT REPORT ON IT. This weird sort of unearned condescending snark may be Barsanti's trademark, but I'll be damned if I can understand why it's something that the GMG…
For all the talk about why Part 3 isn’t any good, Tom Hagan not being in it is what ruins it for me the most. It just doesn’t have the same feel right from the start with him not there. They really never should have went forward without Duvall on board.
Willy's Wonderland was a blast
Having read this comment section, man it is so heartwarming. I don’t know much about acting, but there have been times like I wondered if the actor knew the film was rolling or couldn’t be bothered to do another take. I’ve watched all of Cage’s VOD’s and I’ve never once come across a scene or moment where he looked…
I’ll definitely agree with him. I’ve never felt that he wasn’t actively invested in and trying to get something out of every role. He was most likely the best part of Sorcerer’s Apprentice - hell, most any of the stuff he’s talking about - if you ask people who actually saw it.
The kind of amazing thing about Nic Cage is he never, once, phoned it in, no matter how bad the role was, no matter how bad the movie was, no matter how buried in DTV purgatory it was going to be.
But I never phoned it in.
Okay, but can we all agree that Drive Angry is excellent dumb fun?
Ghost Rider didn’t sell enough tickets? Fuck.
He doesn’t have to regret a thing. He’s Nicolas fucking Cage, OK?
Aw, hell, I loved Alien Nation!
Lighting-fast interview. And I get the impression Caan probably talks fast in his answers.
How amazing would it be if it turned out Putin is a huge Wild at Heart fan and this actually works?
Doing this job has only strengthened my conviction that most movies are neither great nor terrible but somewhere in between—you know, which is what the C+ fundamentally signifies.
