Swayze’s played a Ghost before to acclaim, I don’t see why he can’t do it again. Show all these method-acting fucks what commitment to a role really is.

Sixty sandwiches?????

I mean, we don’t know how extensive their conversation was, we only have the INCREDIBLY self-incriminating statement from Langella, but it’s clear from his comments he didn’t listen to the instructions he was given about the scene (and he admits there were other incidents besides that). At the very least it sounds…

The sad thing is, the intimacy coordinator did discuss it with him beforehand, and he completely dismissed them. From the article

He could do his love scenes like Steven Seagal—-how did the AVClub describe it? ”A portly Steven is lowered, fully clothed, like a drawbridge, onto his conquest”.

“Legislating the placement of hands, to my mind, is ludicrous. It undermines instinct and spontaneity.”

But hitting marks is something all actors have to do and part of the skill of being a film actor is making hitting marks look like something you’d do naturally. So his complaint is ludicrous on its face. Film acting is very choreographed in a lot of ways.

Whenever I hear about someone complaining something was “unamerican” all I hear is “I wanted to do what I want and trample on the wishes of others... and somebody wouldn’t let me.”

Should’ve taken the advice of your lawyers, you silly old man. Yeah, you did it differently in the 70s and got all improvisational tracing circles on inner thighs during love scenes. Maybe it’s not the 70s any more and you were making someone super uncomfortable?

Maybe if you didn’t whine and reject the advice of the…

MCU not knowing what to do with a character’s love interest is as shocking as them having 20 minutes of CGI battles at the end of their movies/TV seasons.

a replica gun that actually functioned as a knife.

I ran into him once, on the way to a job interview at (for some reason) the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills. It was for some Australian tech company; I wore my only nice suit, and as I was walking into the building I saw Radcliffe sitting at an outdoor cafe table looking at his phone. (This was late 2014 or so.) I said…

Like, of all the things to be weirdly contrarian about, you chose this?

Kind of an odd choice to use this particular song for the gag, as it’s famously his one song that he didn’t actually want to do, and it only exists because Madonna herself asked for it.

“Come in and learn more about it” has been their stock answer for literally decades. What it really means is: buy books or services (possibly after taking a personality test).

Shoulda kept not talking about it...

She adds, “It’s not really a closed-off religion. It’s a place that is very open to, like, welcoming in somebody who wants to learn more about it. I think that’s the thing that is probably the most misunderstood.”

“Lez Seydoux”

Because they get married in the book and this piece is badly written. Dracula opens with her as Mina Murray.

Don’t feed birds (or ducks or geese or anything else with feathers!) bread! It’s bad for them. It’s junk food: filling but not nutritious. When we’re not risking spreading a highly contagious disease, it’s okay to feed them bird food, not people food.
