He made everything he was in better. The guy was a great actors, he was one of the few people I would go out of my see. I feel bad his family, he was so young.

I’ve always thought it a bit odd that somebody called Checo[v] would not be able to pronounce ‘V’

I’ll always think of him in Alpha Dog. He really was so talented.

Also, he was in the Fright Night remake. The movie was mediocre, but he was good in it. I’m one of the few who saw that in the theater when it came out.

He really was an amazingly talented up and coming actor. After seeing him in Green Room, it felt like he was destined for some great things. Real shame.

He was excellent in Green Room too!

Everything I’ve seen him in outside of Star Trek he’s been unrecognizable, just phenomenally excellent. I didn’t think Trek knew what to do with him except turn Vs into Ws and be young.

Aw hell. I really enjoyed his work in “Burying the Ex” and “Odd Thomas”.

People forget that actors are egomaniac narcissists of varying degrees. The longer you’re in the business and not connecting with the real world, the more you start to believe in your own importance as a tool of spreading knowledge. That’s true for stage actors, too.

Yeah that bit was really weird. I’m a white Eastern European who spent her childhood behind the iron curtain. I knew who Nina Simone was fucking ages ago. Me. In fact I sang to Nina long before I heard who Zoe Saldana was/is. She needs to just stop now.

She clearly refuses to acknowledge the real underlying issue here in regards to her playing the role of Nina Simone, and also probably her own insecurities in identifying as a black woman.

And it takes a shady narcissist to listen to all the critiques of her portrayal of Simone but hear “you’re too pretty to play Nina Simone.” Nope, that is not the problem.

She’s been shovelling so long you’d think she would have gotten a clue by now. Saldana also said in an Allure Interview, June 2013,“ Let me tell you: If Elisabeth Taylor can be Cleopatra, I can be Nina”.

Plus she’s implying she’s the only black actress who could have done the movie as “well” as she did.

She should legit take a vow of silence for at least six months. She should have learned her lesson after Nina Simone’s estate came for her hard on Twitter. Everything she says about this subject makes her look worse.

Ugh. Yes. I feel a pretty put-off by the fact that she thinks no one knew who Nina Simone was before this mess of a movie came out. That’s just an insult to the massive waves that amazing woman made in her lifetime and after.

I think Zoe should maybe never open her mouth on this subject again. It’s like she’s got a shovel and she wants to keep digging deeper and deeper...

I'd be very interested to know how he can become involved besides complaining to some other department he doesn't belong to.
