The young actors in "Power Rangers" were all terrific-by far the best part of the movie. Between Ludi Lin appearing in "Aquaman", Dacre Montgomery being cast in Season 2 of "Stranger Things", and this I'm glad they're getting more work in high profile projects even though "Power Rangers" underperformed.

I'm not sure 90s-era Depp would have been as good a match with Nicolas Cage. The casting they ended up with was lightning in a bottle… Two charming, charismatic actors playing off of and imitating each others' distinctive personas. Depp didn't really have a distinctive screen persona yet in '97, so while it would have

Yeah, on top of his then-unknown psychological issues, the schedule was so hard on William Hartnell that he started to lose track of where reality ended and the show began. Other Doctors have had similar experiences of difficulty shaking the character. That's a degree of arduousness that takes a certain type of actor

I watched that movie for the first time a month or so after being in a car accident.

Odd that a network as notoriously image conscious as CBS would look at the words 'Michael Jackson Animated Children's Special' and think "Yup, no way that could lead to any sort of backlash!"

And in the documentary "Pumping Iron", his accent when speaking extemporaneously is noticably softer than it would later be when he became a professional actor:

I'm reminded of how Arnold Schwarzenegger regularly visits a voice coach in order to make sure he doesn't lose his Austrian accent.

One of my favorite takes on the "Wish for peace" conceit is an episode of "The Fairly Oddparents" where in order to get his ball back from an arrogant dentist who only thinks people with perfect teeth like himself and his son deserve good things, Timmy wishes everybody looked exactly the same. The wish turns everybody

More people should have seen "End of Watch".

UPDATE: Tarantino has reportedly approached Margot Robbie to play Sharon Tate

"what if - get this - the race war Manson wanted to start through his murder spree ACTUALLY HAPPENED!?!"

'But the end result is too boxed in by the demands of the franchise era and the usual restrictions of a PG-13 rating to qualify as art. ' - that seems… unnecessarily restrictive in terms of how art is defined.

No and no.

Kenneth Branagh shot "Murder on the Orient Express" in 65mm, too. Hopefully it gets a similarly wide release.

Ramping up the drug war in order to bolster profits for private prisons and the corporations that own them is VERY libertarian.

Yeah. Last year in "The Founder" he played Ray Kroc, who was in his early 50s during the events portrayed.

Or his most egregious miscasting in "Into the Storm", where he played a vice principal of a high school as an unstoppable badass out to rescue people from a tornado.

Do you honestly think the success of "Moonlight" last year had nothing to do with the Academy's big influx of younger & more diverse members? ESPECIALLY when movies like "La La Land" and "Manchester By the Sea" were also contenders?

And surprise, surprise, there's already an article written by a white guy (the normally not-dickish Scott Weinberg) about how adding so many members this and last year won't fix the Academy's diversity problem and is a sign of lowering standards of Academy voters.

He got his invitation in 2015.
